Buzzy Bee-day

Three great stamps from Elzybells. The Glaze pens work really nicely giving an embossed look.

Greens and Purples

I've had these brads for a while now but have never used them. I wanted to try something different other than layering papers. I really liked the end result.

Sparkly Birthday

A bright sparkly card in purple using stickles and Swiss Dot cuttlebug embossing folder.

Ribbon-tastic

Would you believe I made this card for a blog candy challenge (to include ribbon) and then realised I was one day late! Oh well! I wove two different types of ribbon together around a square piece of card. I attached a Prima flower with a purple brad and stamped the sentiment using a Elzybells stamp.

Cards for Jo - SBS13 Card Swop

This is the card I did for the SBS13 card swop. It has taken me ages to do it - sorry Jo, hope you liked it. The image is Stamping Bella, I have used a scalloped Nestie to stamp her on. The paper is Papermania Retro Florals. The sentiment is a Penny Black stamp, stamped on Nesties. I added a little pink Prima flower and a gem.

Below is an extra card I made for Jo for her to use, rather than including any stamped images.

Jo sent me a gorgeous card for this swop! The imade and setiment are from Elzybells, the image is coloured using Whispers makers. I have stamped put some extra butterflies and attached them using 3D foam pads and then dotted a little swirl using my Sakura glitter pen. I have used an orange organza ribbon below the image to add a little sparkle.

Bride & Groom

Another commission card! I struggled a bit with this until I tried the red which looked great. The base is red Papermania card with a strip of white organza ribbon. The image is by Elzybells - I love their stamps!! I have coloured them in with pencils and Whispers brush makers. I have added a little bit of glitter using my Sakura pen. I printed the sentiment on my PC and rounded one edge with my Woodware corner rounder.
