Curvy Card for Dad

Hi Bloggers,

Today I'm sharing this card -

I used the WS Designs Curvy Card Template to make the card base from Navy card. I used the template again to create a smaller panel of bright blue card for the front. I did some faux stitching down the length of the bright blue card.

I stamped various images from the Woodware 'His Birthday' stamp set onto patterned paper and cut them out.

The letters are from the Woodware 'Tiny Frames' set. This is a really useful set as you get an alphabet and a set of different shaped frames to stamp your letters into.

I assembled the card as shown.

I'm entering this card into the following challenges -

Thanks for stopping by.

Snowman Book Card

Hi Bloggers,

Today I'm sharing a very simple book shaped card made with the WS Designs Book Template.

I cut the base card out of a piece of purple A5 card stock using the WS Designs Book Template. I drew pencil lines to represent the pages in the book.

I stamped the Woodware Startstruck Snowman stamp with Memento ink and coloured with Promarkers. I cut the image out with the Spellbinders Lattice Rectangles die and inked around the edges with the new Seasonal Distress Ink Seedless Preserves.

I stamped the greeting (Creative Expressions) with Black Archival ink and cut it out using the Spellbinders Double-ended Tag die. Again I inked around the edges with the Seedless Preserves Distress Ink. I added some black Baker's Twine to the holes in the tag.

The backing paper is from the Polka Doodles Sundae of Seasons CD. I inked around the edges with the Seedless Preserves Distress Ink and added some faux stitching with a black fineliner pen.

I added some black Baker's Twine to some Polka Dot Buttons and tied it in a knot. The buttons are from Sam Poole Creative Studios. Aren't they lovely?
