Made this double easel card for my daughters 16th...........................her Birthday is February so her birthstone is purple hence the colour theme - she is a girl after my own heart so plenty of glitter and sparkles............

Hi All

As I am new to this Blogging thought I would add a wee selection of the type of cards I make - all very varied but must admit I am partial to a bit of glitter....

Thought this sentiment stamp worked especially well with the Magnolia Rainbow and Tilda in the Rain Stamp.................coloured the rainbow witth chalks, used Glossy Accents to give the puddle and rain 3d effect.............Magnolia Paper, ribbon and charms from my stash completed it

Mums 70th

As my mum was recently 70 wanted to make something special for her - more of a keepsake really and personalised. I googled the day she was born and found that the only thing of any importance was a Total Eclipse - so made up a wee poem with this - the other poem i found on the internet and personalised with our family names. I used magnolia butterfly paper and think the marianne butterfly die compliments it perfectly, also used some butterfly peel offs on acetate for a more 3d effect. My mum was delighted with her card.

Well fellow Bloggers ( smiling as I write that) I think I have the hang of posting now - so will go ahead and put on some recent cards. I have been trying to keep myself busy as my baby boy has left home to start his journey as a Student ! Although he is only 17 has started this year at St Andrews University to study medicine - whilst I cannot describe how proud we are of him - homelife seems somewhat changed without him (saying that he has been home both weekends) but little things like setting the table for 3 instead of 4 - and not having to tidy his room on a daily basis all seem strange but I am sure we shall get used to it.

Xmas Angels

Found this Angel in my stash and came up with this simple design - think it shows off the Angel perfectly! Have around 8 or so more - so watch this space for a wee batch of similar cards.
