Thinking of you/Sympathy card for a fellow Docrafter

Evening All

Well a few days ago I found out that a fellow do-crafter wasn't well and to top it all she lost her little fur baby Ellie, who only recently was made famous by Joanna Sheens newsletter.  I was in the process of making her a card when I heard about little Ellie but i have still decided to send the card as she is Hamster mad and I do hope that she finds another little companion soon, as I am sure Holly and Ellie will send her another little one soon.

Most of the elements i have used have come from my friend Rachel who is also on do-crafts and we found the little toppers in her craft cupboard in a tin and I think they work really well.

On another sad note I too have lost one of my little fur-babies my 18 year old cat Tiger.  He will be missed but to be honest he has been living on borrowed time for the last five or six years and definitely was the best fed cat on the block as his main diet was cod fillet and chicken breast.  He is at peace now and playing with his little friend Star who passed about 8 years ago on Rainbow bridge.

6 Year old birthday card

Hi All

Well you can tell my little one is back at school as all the birthday party invitations are rolling in.  I think over the next 4 weeks we have about 6 parties to go to, so here is the start of the cards I need to make.

The Image is LOTV and is called Little Ballerina, it has been coloured in with my promarkers and glittered with my crystal glimmer mist.

I have dusted the edge of the image with spun sugar (Distress ink) and decorated with some pearls from Joanna Sheen.

Papers are henbury lane and come ready glittered and the greeting is computer generated.

Ribbons and card from stash.

Thank you for looking and for any comments you may like to leave.

Sketch Saturday - Week 149

Evening All

Well it has been a while since I have entered any challenges, I think life is definitely getting in the way at the moment so hopefully this will be the first of many cards to be uploaded as I need to do 1 Birthday card for a 6 year old and 2 Christening cards for the same little one.

I was on a mission to make atleast one Christmas card a week but have fallen a little behind, I should be on week 14 and this is my week 10 card so a little catching up is needed.

This cute little bear is from the LOTV (Lili of the Valley) range of stamps and has been coloured in with my promarkers.

The papers are from Papermania and are from one of the paperpacks from a couple of years ago (I think).

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and for any comments you may like to leave.
