70 Years Young

Good morning folks, Monday again so quickly ! I hope you have had a good weekend, and welcome home mum, hope you have had a great holiday, now I might get some ironing done again 😉😝😘. (only kidding xxx)

Friday was our uncle's seventieth birthday, so this is the card I made for him. I used the numbers again from the latest issue of Creative Stamping magazine, this time stamped in Sapphire Crisp Dye ink from Altenew.

Then I used a stars stencil and Broken China Distress Oxide Ink, and lightly brushed the ink through the stencil with a Clarity Stamping Brush.

I used a double stitched rectangles set to emboss the pattern on to the front panel and a slightly larger one onto the card front.

Then I raised the front panel with craft foam and added a few shiny dark blue star sequins to finish off.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

70th Birthday Card

Good morning everyone, hope you are well. 

Today's card is one I have made for Mum's friend who is 70 tomorrow. She asked me to make a card and incorporate an old photograph in to it, so this is what I came up with. 

I used CraftArtist for the background and to add the photo and text. Then I printed in on to white linen card. 

The flowers are a mixture of paper ones and Tim Holtz Tattered Florals. They are held together with brads and I also added a silver flower to the large one. 

I used black card to frame the design and then used some black ribbon across the middle. 

Then I added hearts and gems and a die cut heart topped with a little wooden heart to finish it off. Mum likes it so lets hope Hazel does too.

Thanks for stopping by again. See you soon, take care.
