A Few Cards

 Hi All.

Here are a few cards I made recently, for birthdays.

My daughter asked me to make a couple, one for her boyfriend. I used a PaperArtsy stamp.

And one for his nephew, who will be 3. I painted a watercolour dinosaur for him.

This is the card we gave to daughter's boyfriend. Another PaperArtsy stamp set, and some of my handmade washi tapes.

Our mum's birthday fall on the same day, and I made a couple of very similar cards for them, using some of my gelprints, and an Elusive Image flower stamp. Just before I sent them, I added a tiny orange adhesive gem to the flower centre.



I hope you're all having a good week.

Today is our wedding anniversary, 31 years, too many to give each other cards anymore. 😆 Hubby said my flowers were stuck in the basket, I'll believe that when it happens! 😂 We did go out for a country walk and a pub lunch though, to celebrate. 😍

  3. Happy anniversary Alison. We never do anything for ours anymore either. And your cards are fantastic. I am loving the bit of white burlap you added. It creates lovely texture. I bet your nephew will love the dino card. It's very cute. hugs-Erika

  6. First, Happy Anniversary to you both! We celebrate 35 on the 29th and we still do the cards, lol. Love the ones you shared, very hip and the dino one is so creative. Dunno that I'd ever have courage enough yet to use my own artwork on one but maybe one day! XOX
