and the Birthday card is also done...

Well the floor is on its way to be finished. I cannot believe how much mess it has created, the dust from the guy leveling the floor has got everywhere. Massive clean up required which means no time for crafts next week.  But I have had a lovely couple of days with no interruptions so cannot complain (well maybe a little complaining) and we have a lovely wooden floor. Decorating next....urghh!!

Moving swiftly on, this is a card for a friends daughter who is 18 in a couple of weeks. I decided against putting the age on the front as the inside will have an insert with a Birthday message from me and hubby.

I used the same papers as for the wedding card and similar Pro-marker colours for the image. Just added a little bit of candi and liquid pearls. Now that's 2 envelopes I have to make!!

Wedding card done...18th Birthday card to do

We are having a wooden floor fitted downstairs so I have been stuck on the first floor all day while the stuff sets. Not complaining though as I finally got some time free to get some cards done.

Here is a card I have done for a work colleague who is getting married in a couple of weeks. The backing papers are from the Tea Dance Collection (patterned paper from craftwork cards) and Linen Closet cardstock from The Range.

Everything apart from the Tilda image and candi was cut using my Silhouette Cameo (files from the store). Tilda images are coloured using promarker, I added glitter to the wedding dress and liquid pearl on the butterfly. Just got to make an envelope to match now, it will be my first attempt at making one with my new envelope punch board so probably take me the rest of the week....

And here is the finished card:
