Halloween Is Coming..........................

A friend asked me to make an Autumn Thanksgiving/Harvest card to send to her family in America.

I used an image from the web & decoupaged it onto some lovely bazzil bling black card stock, then layered on some lovely autumn leaves paper onto orange bazzil bling, added some gems & personalised insert on gorgeous Stampin Up designer paper (forgot to take piccy!!)

My friend was very happy with the card & I hope her family will be too!! I also made an added little Halloween book which I made from pub coasters, which I covered with papers from various craft cds - Joanna Sheen & Crafters Companions. I decoupaged some of the images, used distress inks to edge & age the pages of the book, then attached all the coasters together with a book ring & decorated with some ribbon, gems & a bit of sparkle by using sakura stardust pens.

See the above post for the coaster book - blogger won't let me post here!!! lol

Sympathy Card

This is a Sympathy Card I made using Joanna Sheens Heavenly Cards CD, Bazzil card stock, and a simple white insert. It's my first attempt at this type of card. I printed out the single large image, matted it onto lilac pearlescent card stock, then printed off a coordinating backing paper & covered the bottom corner of the card with this.
A simple & subtle card I think, appropriate for this very sad occassion.

Love & Romance Tag Swap

Yet another Tag swap!!! Theme as the title says as is hosted by Claire, I made 3 tags using medium size luggage labels which I covered fully on one side & only partially on the other with Brena Pinnock papers, I then added an image from Joanna Sheen cd. & on the reverse side wording from a Sharon Duncan cd. I finished the tag off by edging with peel-off, some epoxy love heart stickers & lovely fibres. (Please click on photo for clearer view)
