Bunny tulips

A couple of different bits of paper were used to make this card, and as usual I do not remember where they are from. The inside keeps with the square theme of the front as well. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, as is the ribbon and bows. Lili of the Valley has made the pre coloured image which I have used pink distress ink on. I made the branches with a Martha Stewart puncher and the oval and scalloped oval with spellbinder dies.

Hello there

Posted on by Liz

I am back into card making again and I have coloured up several images ready to be made into cards this week. It is about time I make some more where I use my stamps and colour them in again as I have used a lot of pre coloured ones as of late. They are so easy to use, though, so I figured if I pre-coloured some myself it would help, heh.

This card has been made with Tim Holtz paper, a Lili of the Valley sentiment stamp with distressed edges as well as a Lili of the Valley pre-coloured image. Isn’t it adorable? The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I have also used candi from Craftwork Cards; the card blank is also from there. The branches are made with a Martha Stewart puncher.

Good morning. The card I am posting today is a card that a colleague requested made. It has been made with papers from Pion, as well as a vintage image by Pion. The dies used are Spellbinders and Magnolia with a dash of distress ink. All the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The tag slots in under the image on the right side.

As it is a new year, it is time to show off something new I tried. It was great fun and turned into one of my favourite cards thus far.

This card was made using very simple striped pink paper layered over a bright green plain card. I had ribbon matching the green card and tied a little bow for it. Then I made a floral border using a Martha Stewart puncher on deep pink card. The image itself was tricky. It is made with lots of layers of decoupage images glued together with gel glue. This is the first time I’ve used both decoupage images and the gel glue and it was getting tricky to align them properly when I got to the small bits at the top. The sentiment is a stamp from Lili of the Valley put on a pink scalloped circle. I made green branches with another Martha Stewart puncher and added several flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. The different pearls are all from Wild Orchid Crafts as well.

Geisha girl

Posted on by Liz

The crafting tools are once again occupying the dining room table and I am rushing to finish all the cards I need to have done for January. There are so many male cards I need to make that I am making a lot of feminine ones to keep my mind off them! Hah, I cannot procrastinate much longer though as these birthdays are less than a week away now..

This card has been made using paper from my oldest paper pad. I bought after I had seen a lovely card somewhere and thought it would make nice cards. Soon after I bought a lot more things for card making and the rest is history. Still, I had not used him pad much, but the colours were perfect for this Geisha girl pre coloured die cut design from Lili of the Valley. In my stash of flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts I found some matching flowers as well! The dark pink accents are made from a Martha Stewart snowflake puncher.
