21st Birthday Card

Another family member reaches a milestone 21st birthday.
This card is basic cream linen card with a 2 cut out and ragged in a vintage inspired postage stamp paper in browns and plums.  The 1 is in a green coloured vintage map print from the same paper set as the postage stamp print.
I tried to keep it simple with the embellishments and opted for green and red wooden buttons with coordinating jewel and star.  I sneaked a deep green organza bow on it and a small brass key to symbolize the 'Key of the Door' landmark birthday.

Handmade 18th Birthday Card

Here's another 18th birthday card, this time in green shimmery card with vintage green patterned paper overlays with tattered and torn edges.  
I've embellished it with hearts, flowers, buttons and bows and even tied a tiny silver 'Coming of Age' key to the number 1.

 There's a panel of vintage linen green tattered paper inside to write a special message on.
This is now in my wowthankyou shop

3 weeks? Sorry...

Hard to believe that the last three weeks have gone by and I haven't blogged once.  Life hasn't been busy, but it has been fun!  Both the men in my life had a birthday (that's my husband and my son, sharing the same birthday).  Hubby had a week off work and we spent most of time doing whatever we wanted to do.  The one day we chose to stay at home and do nothing also happened to be the worst day for weather so that worked out well for us.  And we've had a wonderful Diamond Jubilee extra long weekend to make us all proud to be British.  Top that all off with the half term break and weather to warrant the building of an ark and that's where most of my time has been.
I have still been tickling my craft supplies and producing little items but haven't had the light (or the sense in my head) to take any reasonable photo's.  But just to prove I've been up to something, here's a trio of shots of an 18th card I made for my daughter's friend...


...and this last  photo shows the pink heart covered wallpaper envelope too!

Baby's 1st Birthday


It's hard to believe that my great-nephew is 1 already!
Just a couple of peeks at the card I made for him...

Happy 12th Birthday


My son's 12th Birthday card. I used a green spotted paper on the 1 and a contrasting brown spotted paper on the 2.
Once again I embellished with buttons, bows and heart cut-outs. I also added a few tiny glass mosaic tiles.

21st Birthday

Another number card, this one for a 21st birthday.
Very similar to my previous 18th card but I do so love the style, colours and papers.

A small boy's 3rd birthday card

I can't believe my great-nephew is going to be 3 soon! I made this card for him, and I even got it just right when I came to fold it and stand it up straight!
I just hope he likes it!
