Oh I love that, Virginia, the more I look - the more I see !

Here's my card for week 26 - no bigger than 4x4. This one is 3.75x3.75!



And here is week 27 - I only managed blue and white on this one ;-) the blue patterned paper is a big background stamp.

[SilverTiger2]

Those are both really lovely !

Beautiful cards everyone. Looks like you all have been busy. My family held a surprise birthday party for me last week, and I am slowly but surely getting ready to make thank you cards for the guests. This forum has given me lots of ideas

Gorgeous cards ladies and thank you so much for your lovely comments on mine.

Virginia, there is so much of interest to look at on your card it is fab.

Phil, I can't believe how our minds are in tune at the moment. I have just been cutting pop up butterflies on my Silie and I've just been using the same MS punch as on your blue and white card. Both lovely cards by the way, I love the blue and white it is so fresh. I know I'll be using it again.

I used my Tim Holtz tattered flower die and cut pale green and pink paper and bright pink felt for the flower. Pale pink felt for the flourishes and used glitter glue around the edges of the petals.

[SilverTiger2]

That is a lovely card, Virginia, I have never thought of using felt for florishes - it looks really good.

Here is mine for this week:

Pale green pearlised card stock with top corner folded down and covered in lime green mulberry paper with silver glitter scrolls.

Cream and green flowers made using XCuts dies and pale green brad for centre.

Pale green skeleton leaves heat embossed with silver tinsel powder.

Textured fabric stumped a me bit as it is not something I use - but - a little rummage in the ribbon box produced - silver butterflies made from fabric that has been padded and embossed !

Here's mine - I used a glittered chipboard circle, green felt leaves, pink flower, and some green polka dot paper:

What beautiful cards.

Love your flower and flourishes Virginia.

I love your pretty green flourishy paper ST, it's really gorgeous and those pretty flowers.

Also love the way your glittered chipboard sets off the pretty flower Sharon.

Nowt from me so far.

Here is mine for this week. I don't really do glitter but have used some glittered paper and flowers. The swirl is felt.

Here is mine for week 30: A birthday card for a friend.

Card stock is white with orange scrolls printed on it, and the card is made up of three sheets of A4.

The numbers are made from parchment with orange pearlised card behind. I have scalloped the edges of the parchment, hand embossed it and added a few ouches of gold.

The daisies are made from Mulberry paper and are my friend's favourite flowers. I cannot show the inside as it has a photo of my friend and I have not her permission.

well after a seriously manic 2 weeks I've managed to get around to putting my pictures up for the last 2 weeks!

Week 29 - never managed the felt but did use a crocheted ribbon which is my next best thing. The cupcakes are glittered I promise!



Week 30 - This is for a 50th but I thought the date would be a nice alternative to a big '50'!

[SilverTiger2]

Those are beautiful, Lilliboy, I really like the crocheted lace and the little tickets with the sentiments.

[lilliboy]

Thank you ST2 - I love that lace too!

I finally got around to making my week 28 one - I knew what I was going to do but it meant getting my Robo out and that has put me off each night - but, the person wanting this is wanting it soooon so thought I'd better get a wriggle on.





making a Male box was not something I was looking forward to doing.

Please note my serious hoarding here - I found an old fuse and watch battery and thought 'I'm sure I could use those'! Think I have finally lost it!

Back uptodate for a few hours!

There are loads of gorgeous cards and I feel bad I've not had time to comment on them lately so please forgive me, I am planning on having a catch up this week!
