Fox and Friends #4, Something to Celebrate

I ran the embossing buddy over the whole of the front of the card base before white embossing the sentiment from the Something to Celebrate Hostess Level 2 set. The remaining images were stamped on pieces of Whisper White scrap.   I stamped the turtle in Soft Suede first, then stamped another in Almost Artichoke, cut out […]

French Foliage, Something to Celebrate HL2 (mini)

Another Congratulations Card

Two cards today so scroll down to see the other.   I thought I’d share this type of card using a different  colour combo of the spinner card I  made  earlier which can be seen here .  I had so much fun making the first one, I couldn’t resist making another for a very special lady – she knows who she […]

Party This Way #4
