Another Crazy for Cupcakes card

I told you once I had made one I couldn't stop ..........

This card was made exactly the same way as the previous post, all I changed was the cardstock substituting Melon Mambo for Taken with Teal.

Isn't it cute?

Crazy for Cupcakes card

I found the inspiration for this card on the wonderful Jenny Moore's Stamping Moments blog. Where she used Bird on a Branch, I got one of my favourite sets out - Crazy for Cupcakes. The reason I like this set is because you can colour it in, you see I'm still a child at heart............

The base card is Melon Mambo and Basic Black. I cut off part of the front and replaced it with a piece of polka dot window sheet (from the excellent Night and Day speciality paper pack currently available in the Mini catalogue). Before attaching the Basic Black to the front of the card I used the Eyelet border punch along one edge. I then attached a piece of black gingham ribbon around the front.

The image is stamped in Basic Black ink and coloured using Melon Mambo ink and a blender pen. This was then popped up onto dimensionals.

Of course, after making one of these cards I couldn't stop ...................

A Birthday Card for Helen

I can post a picture of this card now as Helen has received it!


Oooohhh, Cottage Wall papers again!! Absolutely love them!! And the Rich Razzleberry card and polka dot grosgrain ribbon, think I might have to order some more.......................

A simple A6 Rich Razzleberry card with two co-ordinating papers and a knot of ribbon to hide the join. The stamped image is from Crazy for Cupcakes, as is the sentiment. I coloured the image in using Rich Razzleberry, Pale Plum and Old Olive and then pricked a couple of lines of holes using the Mat Pack and Paper Piercer. This was layered onto a piece of Rich Razzleberry and then a semi-circle was punched out of the side for the knot to fit into. I also decorated the Whisper White insert with a couple of strips of the gorgeous papers.

Oooohhhh love these colours, Basic Grey, Tempting Turquoise and Pink Passion!!!

A really quick and easy card to make that looks really cute. Just change the colours for a male card (or not!!).

I used the Scallop Edge punch and then with a white gel pen I added dots on the scallops. A knot of Basic Grey taffeta ribbon finished it off.
