A Lovely Mum Card (Art By Miran image)

Hi Crafty friends,

Thank you to my gorgeous followers for still following me, I'm so thrilled to have 264 of you now. The personalised, sweet comments some of you leave me truly makes my day and I want you to know that I treasure every one of them. 

For my card I decided to do a bit of tearing for a change. I'd seen it lately on some of your cards and loved it and hadn't done it myself for quite some time. 

I love this sweet image from Art by Miran, I created with her not so long ago when I was a GDT at Art by Miran (I've added the card below). This time I used part of a fence from Flourish with a Bling (last time I used the tree from Flourish with a Bling).

Yellow Spring Birthday Card (A Day for Daisies image)

Hi everyone,

I was a busy little beaver again today as I had a day off work and once the housework was done I was free to create 3 cards.

This card is so much prettier in real life as it looks "sloppy" on the edges (the card is perfectly even down the sides, my camera fibs hehe), colours washed out a bit, etc. 

I coloured the silver rhinestones with my yellow copic marker. The gorgeous image comes from A Day for Daisies.

Easter girl with chick CAS Card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi everyone,

If you'd like to know why I have posted please see my "Friends Forever - All Dressed Up image" post as I don't want to bore you on every post today (I have 6 cards I'll hopefully get posting today!)

I have made a very clean and simple card here, not like me at all but I watched a Youtube video and this is how they made their card, printing and then colouring on the actual card base (make sure it is suitable blending card though). The sweet image is from Saturated Canary and I have created cards with this cutie before so I have added them below (I think I create with her every Easter hehe).

Best Mum Spring Card (Tiddly Inks images)

Hi everyone,

If you'd like to know why I have posted please see my "Friends Forever - All Dressed Up image" post as I don't want to bore you on every post today (I have 6 cards I'll hopefully get posting today!)

Here's a card which no matter how many photos I took, doesn't look nowhere near as sweet as it does in real life, very irritating when that happens isn't it? Anyway, I have added a few digis together to create the scene, the girl, the flowers and the little birdie are all from Tiddly Inks. The Best Mum & flower sentiment is from a CD I had.
