Vintage Look.

 Morning all, the request for this diamond anniversary
was that the recipients didn't like colour so I've used
a really neural palette and aged the edges using
crumb cake ink.
A closer look at one of the beautiful butterflies which
have also been inked and a bit of bling added, these 
are from the beautiful butterflies embosslit folder from
SU you get 4 different butterflies all beautifully
embossed, they add a bit of class I think.

Yoshi Time!!

I know I've been away a while but with no mojo
and not feeling great blogger has had to take a back seat.
Todays offering is a Yoshi punch art card, my
boys love Super Mario so this was the perfect
card to create for one of their friends.

Cool Bunny.

 Morning all, I love bunnies so this happy hopper
image from house mouse was perfect for my friends

Police Academy.

 The latest cake offering for one of my hubbies
work colleagues who's daughter has qualified as
a special constable.
Side angle, the handcuffs were cut on my Cricut cake
machine which is SUPPOSED to cut icing, but
is very hit or miss as to whether it works, a lot of
money for a machine that doesn't do what it's 
designed for, I think it's all in the icing, I used petal paste
which isn't as wet as fondant.
Here's to a new officer on our streets.
WELL DONE JODIE!!!

Tatty Teddy.

 The request was for a Tatty Teddy card, my answer
was go and buy one! I don't tend to make cards 
which use licensed products so had to buy these
decoupage Tatty Teds.
A closer look at the cupcakes and bear,
I never feel 100% happy with a card which
isn't constructed completely by me.

What A Request!!


 Have you ever had a bizarre request for a card?
This request was for a card incorporating the
Union Jack, American flag, smarties and 
chocolate buttons!! We all like a challenge but
sometimes I really do wonder what goes on in
some peoples heads.
So above are the smarties,
 These are the buttons, the squares were embossed
using stars and stripes folders and Union Jack
backing paper,
sentiment from LOTV,
the finished card, which I have to say I was really
pleased with how it all came together, fulfilled all the 
requests but didn't look completely bizarre!!
