Selection of 60s

I was asked to make a 60th birthday card for a teacher at work. It was my first order for cards and admittedly my only order for cards other than from family members but hey ho! I tried various designs and here are the selection I made.

The first card simply involved a Sugar Nellie stamp coloured in but I thought she was quite sweet.

My second card involved the same number templates as the first and a simple anita's flower stamp.

I loved this card because it involved my favourite birthday stamp, this was my first Sugar Nellie stamp and I love her. She's just so useful.

For my final card I used my trusty Addison papers and Dawn Bibby rubber stamps.

All of the cards were simple but I was so proud that I'd actually managed to make something!!

Card for a special lady

This is a card I made for a friend of mine who had just found out she had cancer. Thankfully she is now free of the big C.

She is a pigeon fancier so I got this photo from google images and printed it out 3 times so I could decoupage the image. I was really pleased with the effect. I did the same with images of fireman for the same friend as a card to send before her big op.

Both cards went down a storm!!
