Embossed Sympathy

This is a really simple, but effective sympathy card. I used a Sizzix embossing folder and added a stamped sentiment along with Card Candi and colour matched twine. I entered this card into a competition but I did not win anything, I am really happy with the design of this card though.

Womb with a veiw

I used an image from the Going Places Cricut cartridge for this card. It is a card that I had wanted to try out for quite a while and I am really chuffed with how it turned out!! It may not be to everyone's taste but I think that it is a really fun card. I love the colours too!

Say Cheese!

I have wanted to make a camera card for ages so I made this little one using red and turquoise colours. I did not know if the colours would match very well but I was surprised and pleased by the outcome, I hope that you like it too!

Monsters Inc

This is the card that I made for my sister for her birthday and she loved it!! Monsters Inc. is one of her favourite films and I used the sentiment "We scare because we care". I don't think that I got the colours exactly right but they are near enough. I was pleased with the outcome.

Let's do coffee!!

I used the From My Kitchen Cricut cartridge for this card and it was a fun one to make. I love the soft colours of this card mixed in with the back. It is a simple card but quite effective.

Thanks for the car!!

This card is a thank you card for my parents in law to say thank you for selling me their car. They sold it to us for an amazing price and having a car has enabled me travel to my home town to visit friends and family much more than I had previously been able to. I used the Going Places Cricut cartridge and for the back ground I used the Cuttlebug Thank You folder. I added the green Card Candi to finish it off.

Big Top

This is a card for a one year old who was having a big top themed birthday. I used the Cricut Carousel cartridge along with the Cuttlebug star embossing folder. I wanted to keep it simple and just use 2 colours; red and white. I used red mirror board and red ink in the XDR when printing out the sentiment. I added a few red Card Candi and red and white twine to finish it off.
