This weeks cards

I have been making some more cards this week....

 I just made this card (and the one below) last night..for a friend who loves shoes.

You might not believe this, but the shoes are actually from

wrapping paper!  Looking through

my stuff, I realised it was the only shoe stuff I had!

I cut carefully round the shoe,

popped it onto card and cut carefully round it again.

It gave it some proper strength.

I used 3-d foam to mount onto the embossed background... I love this background!

I scalloped the edge ...and cut quite a bit off.

The peel-off is one of my fave sentiment peel-offs...love that font!

I made this card last night, too. 

Again, I used a wrapping paper shoe and this time I used a backing paper from my stash.

I hand-wrote the sentiment.

 Just like the other stack-of-present-cards I have made,

I used my own template and covered it with baby papers, and a couple

of cute little bears from nitwits. Ribbon is from my stash.

 I made this one for a friend, whose fave colour is green.

The papers are from papermania and the little presents are diecuts ..also papermania.

I love the little tags that craftwork cards sell (on top of stack).

Ribbon from stash.



This was such a difficult card to come up with...

 a card, for a 17 yr old boy...and I have been making him cards since he was 12

so he had games console cards, bike cards, sport cards, etc.

I think he will think this quite "street" and "trendy" ...but, who knows?

I'm not too sure about the minds of 17 yr old males!

Fingers crossed!
