BIRTHDAY GIRL

Hi all, my card share for today features a stamp that I bought from Sugar Nellie (Funky Kits) some while ago, I think I have only used her once before, found the stamp, and others, while searching through my never ending stash.

I stamped her with Momento Tuxedo ink then coloured her with both Graph It Markers and Copics, I doodled the frame around her then mounted her onto black card stock.

The papers are a bit of a mixture the yellow and green are Basic Grey the other I am not sure of, I added a Cuddly Buddly stamped sentiment then coloured it with graph it markers, I found my SU Banner Punch and punched out the banners at the top then added some garden twine, I actually bought the twine for crocheting but it didn't work out, lol, I also added a copper coloured metal butterfly.

I have gone for Autumnal colours that are my favourite.  I saw leaves in these colours this morning while taking Jess for her walk, I also did a but of Blackberry picking, they are in abundance this year but I think most of the good ones have already been picked, I got a small dish full.

MR ROBIN REDBREAST

Today my card share features the beautiful Robin Redbreast, the images I have used are from Kanban they are from a die cut sheet, one of many, that I have had for over a year.

For something a little different I decided to use my 5 x 5 circle scalloped cards, I actually joined two together to make a tri opening card, pictures below will hopefully show you what I mean.

The first 2 pictures are the front of the card the first one is laid down the second is standing, I did this due to the bad light.  I added some Viva Decor Silver Pearl drops and a sentiment.

The picture below shows the card fully opened 

The picture below shows the image on the back of the card 

This picture below show the card open but standing 

Finally this picture shows it partially closed so you can see the front and back have images. 

This was a 'quick' make card and took me approx 15 mins.

AUTUMN TIDDLY INKS

Hi all, it's been a good day so far, the sun is shining, it's Jess' 2nd birthday and James' 24th, I also won the challenges at Come and Get it Challenge and Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge, and we are having roast chicken and veggies with stuffing for dinner.

I finished this card off this morning, I have seen these images around in blogland for awhile now but after seeing Aussie Annie's blog and the loveliness that she had created using some of these image I finally went and treated my self to one or two maybe it was 3, lol.

I really enjoyed colouring her with Graph It Markers and Copics for the face, I mounted her onto black card, I found some lovely orange linen effect card and used that to mount the papers onto, the papers are a mix, have no clue whose they are, had them for quite awhile now, I then punched out a couple of butterflies added some burlap and gingham ribbon and a bow.  Finally I added 3 flowers
