Once again a request; a card for a husband to celebrate 50 years together. Not to be traditional, funny and for a couple who love animals and are having 2 mice on the cake... This first card was made using the Cute Companions stamps, one from Summer Stories and one from the original range. The patterned paper is from the Summer Stories CD Rom. The swirls have been cut using Cricut Essentials and the flowers using a punch. The banners were stamped and cut out. The sentiment was printed on my printer and cut with Spellbinders...phew!! Oh, and I have coloured with Promarkers and Scattered Straw Distress inks!
This was option 2, the image is from the Humprey's Corner Crafters Companion's 'All Occasions' decoupage set. I have mounted using Spellbinders Ovals and Scalloped Ovals. The flourishes are from Spellbinders to, the new 'Jewel Fanatasies' dies. I have also used Persian Accents and Motifs dies from Spellbinders and some flowers from my stash to finish it off. In the end both cards were taken, and they were a pleasure to make for a lady who volunteers at the Hospice in the Weald, where my husband works (the lady in questions also regularly supplies us with yummy cakes!)
really sweet card... love the deck chair!!!
