Pink Shabby Chic Birthday Card

Hello there

 I am afraid my post titles are aheeem a little similar just lately, but what else can you call a shabby chic card lol! This is just a quick post today.

Here is yet another friend's shabby chic birthday card.

This card has lots of flowers again, and is very similar to my last few cards. In my defence I am just lovely my latest stash from Live and Love Crafts. I think that for the fist time ever I may just end up using all of the gorgeous craft goodies I bought from a craft store.

Apologies for the quality of the picture, I realised as I was just about to leave the house with the card I hadn't took a photograph of it. So as you can see I just lifted the 'carefully folded' tissue to take a snap or two.

 

This gorgeous image is Pion Designs - Bouquet

 

 

I am also making another ladies birthday card for my future mum in law, so be warned lol. I will post it soon.

 

Thanks for coming over and taking a peep

Shabby Chic Birthday Card

Hello there

Here is a shabby chic birthday card that I made for my sisters birthday recently. Just lately I love to gesso my papers, and this card was no exception. The roses, shabby seam binding and cameo may have got caught in the cross fire too lol. It turned out so pretty even if I do say so myself, although as usual it took me around three hours to make it! I have such admiration for you ladies who can whip up a card in 10 minutes.

The lovely papers, gorgeous vintage image, shabby seam binding and Frantage embossing powders all came from Live and Love Crafts and the flowers and cameo from The Hobby House. I am loving that little cameo and I have a bag with about 5 left in different colours so I can’t wait to use them in other craft projects.

I am entering this card in the challenge over at Craft roomchallenge, matching up ‘tic tac toe’s’ with the pearls, lace and butterfly. Go over and take a look at the design teams creations, there is some amazing stamping going on over there.

Thank you so much for taking the time to come over to my blog to take a peep.

Shabby Chic Wedding Anniversary Card xx

Oh dear, has it really been September 2012 since I last posted!! Well this weekend I managed to make a couple of cards and I will post one of them today and another shortly.

Here is a wedding anniversary card that I made for my friends daughter.

 

 

I got all shabby and the whole thing got a little sprinkling of Gesso. Oh and I also tried out some new frantage embossing powders (well they are new to me lol). The gorgeous papers along with the vintage image, pins, shabby seam binding and frantage are from Live & Love Crafts. Lots of shabby chic inspiration from their blog, if you have time take a peak.



 



A close up of the gorgeous vintage image, I love these images and they make creating cards a breeze. I really enjoyed making this and the card I will post soon is also very similar.

Thanks for coming over and taking a peak
