Birthday gift thankyou card

Well, I have had such a busy birthday week,meeting family and friends, I have not had much time for crafting. Having recieved some lovely gifts, I have made my first of the many thankyou cards I need to make..
I used the popcorn the bear rubber stamp by crafters companion and coloured with promarkers. It's a really large stamp as can be seen from this six inch square card. I used distress ink for the first time around the edge of the stamped image. The bp is joanna sheen warm marble. The flower started off blue, but I coloured with pro marker to complement the other colours on the card and added some distressed stickles.
Thankyou for looking.

Nature is Painting Beautiful Pictures

I have made this card for my friend who shares the same love of nature as myself. I have used this stamp from Joanna Sheen lot's of times and I think it works great with the sentiment from The Stampman rambling plate.The backing paper is joanna sheen. I coloured the image with sakura crystal laquers, sprinkling a bit of glitter on the wings of the cherub. I swiped a gold ink pad around it and finished off with some brads, a vellum butterly and ribbon from my stash.
Thankyou for looking.

Crafty Ann's Challenge 9

I have made this card for Crafty Ann's Challenge. The challenge is to use a fold or technique which takes you out of your comfort zone. I chose to use scrap magic. Although I have had the template for a long time I have only actually used it twice before. I do like the finished cards, but I am out of my comfort zone. I actually enjoyed doing this one though and feel that I should definately use it more often.
The stamp I used was from crafters companion embossed with gold and painted with twinkling H20's. The backing papers are from the crafters companion oriental cd rom. The oriental coin embellishment is from my stash.

A christening card

My sister asked me to make a card for her granddaughters, my great niece's Christening. As she doesn't like anything too fussy and because she was being christened in a lovely Country Church in Yorkshire, I thought this would fit the bill.
The stamp is from Joanna Sheen, embossed with gold. The sentiment is computer generated and then layered on rectangle nestabilities. It is finished off with a simple gold ribbon and a rhinstone ribbon slider. Sorry the pic is a bit blurry.
Thanks for looking
