Emma's birthday

Here is another birthday card I have made - we have so many family birthdays in May! I could not find the inks I wanted so had to settle for this Kaleidocolour one but it turned out quite prettily - just not what i had in mind at all.

more cards to make

I will show you the card I made for Emma (James's mum) tomorrow and I have just received an order for a 70th birthday card for a lady who likes ballroom dancing - should be able to make a lovely card with that theme. I also have to stamp and paint a batch of 15 cards for a lovely lady in US who runs a dog rescue centre. She buys cards from me regularly to send to the dogs (or the owners!) she has rehomed - such a lovely idea. I'll scan some of those too - they are Penny Black images and just delightful.

Clare's birthday

Here is another family birthday card - this time for my daughter-in-law, Clare. She is doing an energetic keep fit routine at the moment so I thought this decoupaged image was appropriate. The tiny buttond toned really well with the papers.

James's birthday

Lots of family birthdays this month and here is the card I made for my grandson, James. The image is a decoupage and the gromit is in toning colours.

Max's birthday card

It was my partner's grandson's first birthday recently and this is the card I made for him. He has a toy giraffe so I thought I would stamp and colour one with Promarkers. I triple mounted it and then stuck it onto textured green card like grass.
