M is for Motor Racing.

Good Morning, my card to share today is for this week's CD Sunday Challenge - Alphabets - M.  My M stands for Motor Racing.  The image is from Joanna Sheen's Nostalgia CD, which I took into Craft Artist and turned  into black and white.  The backing paper is from Cuddly Buddly, computer generated sentiment and Card Candy to finish off.  Sorry it's not a very good pic, but I have already given this card to my customer so can't take another.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Inspired by Peacocks

Good Morning, my card to share today is for this week's CD Sunday Challenge - Inspired by Peacocks.  I decided to wander through Joanna Sheen's Enchanted Dreams and came upon a few peacock images to play with.  As you can see, I haven't gone with an obvious peacock image or colour.  I fell in love with this image and it does have a couple of peacock feathers on it. Then I went through the embellishment section of this cd and found the fairy riding on the back of a peacock butterfly, I used Versamark and clear embossing powder to give it a gloss finish. The backing paper is from Debbi Moore's Fairyland cd, I had a piece of this left over from another project and thought that I had splattered some ink on it and put it on my craft table for scrap paper: only to find that the little marks are actually supposed to be there.  The gems are from my stash and the sentiment computer generated.

Thank you very much for visiting today and for any comments you might wish to make

Wedding Card

I decided to make a pop out card for this one. The image and backing paper come from Joanna Sheen's Dancing with Shadows. I matted and layered one image onto gold mirri and then cut out the centre of another and 3d'd it. I added two sprays of cream and pink roses to add some colour depth to the card, and tied the gold organza ribbon to the side. Both the roses and the ribbon came from Joanna Sheen. I edged the pop out heart with a gold peel off border and then punched two scallop edge hearts which I stuck together with double sided tape. I used Safamat to add the names of the Bride and Groom to both sides of the heart and then hung it with fine gold embroidery thread. I used Safamat again to put in a short verse. The peel offs and little gems on the ribbon come from my stash. I do hope you like my card and many thanks for stopping by and also for the lovely comments that have been left for my other cards.

PS I've just realised that I can use this card to fulfill the challenge set by Papertake Weekly - no stamping.
