Grandmother’s 95th Birthday card

On Sunday it will be my Granny's 95th birthday, the card is in the post, so I thought I would share it with you. I'm afraid this post is a bit picture heavy due to all the different flowers I made for the card - sorry! I really wanted to try out a cascade card… Continue reading Grandmother’s 95th Birthday card

Super 30th Birthday card

A friend of mine loves to play computer games and when we were younger he would make little movies with friends where he played the hero against another of our friends as the 'evil bad guy'. So because of the movies he made I've decided to make him a Superhero-themed card. I have lots of… Continue reading Super 30th Birthday card

Masculine birthday card

Today is my oldest Step Sister's boyfriend's birthday. He loves history, so I know that 'vintage' stuff would suit him. I ran some black card through the Crafts-Too 'Geared' embossing folder.

Niece’s 7th Birthday Card

My youngest Niece turns 7 today! How time flies!! I've seen so many cards using watercolour techniques that look amazing & I keep jealously thinking "hmmm, mine would never look that good - it would run everywhere and look aweful", but then I thought to myself - I have watercolour paper, water-based inks, paint brushes,… Continue reading Niece’s 7th Birthday Card

Charlie’s 30th Birthday card

Next week another of my friends will be turning 30, but I'm travelling to a two-day veterinary conference later today so I need to make the card now because I won't have time whilst I'm away. My friend is a sound engeneer so music was an obvious choice of theme for his card. I've seen… Continue reading Charlie’s 30th Birthday card

This year is the year of 30th birthdays, so I wanted to send her a card for the 'big' birthday. She's an amazingly talented lady who makes clothes and fabric accessories, so I… Continue reading Natalie’s 30th Birthday card
