Handbag Cards & Another Little Penguin

I have seen so many gorgeous hand bag cards I decided to have a go myself. It's a friends birthday in a couple of weeks and she is mad about handbags so thought it would make the perfect card. I enjoyed making it so much I could not resist making a few more:

I used Laura Ashley papers for this one with Candi buttons for the handles and flowers. The little dots or sticker waste left over from strips of circles - I just knew it would come in handy one day!

Here is another:

The papers for this one are from a Boofle 12x12 pack (bought from The Range).

The third one:

Again the paper is from the Boofle stack. This time I have used Liquid Pearls on the flowers and to highlight.

Last card for now is a Christmas card using the a lovely little penguin image again - I adore this little chap:

I used Spray & Sparkle (silver) for the first time to make the snowflakes so inevitably I ended up with more on me than anywhere else. Love the finish of them (although you cannot really see it on this photo). The snowflake centres are Candi buttons
