Happy Birthday Geran! and Happy Anniversary Treena and Bob!

Hello.

Today is James' Auntie's birthday, and his parents anniversary, so I have two cards to share.

First is the card for his Auntie, I masked off an area in the middle of the card and then stamped a butterfly from the Just Chillin' set by Making Memories. When I removed the mask I added some faux stitching and stamped a sentiment from the Jungle Creatures set by Kanban.

For his parents anniversary card I used Derek and Deirdery Dunderton from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. They were backed by some white card and a paper from the Oxford pad by Basic Grey, both of which were inked along the edges. I don't have an anniversary stamp and I didn't want to use an alphabet set so for the sentiment I used Family Greetings by Elzybells to create one.

Happy Birthday Gemma!

Hello.

Today is James' cousins birthday. For her card I have used Happy Hour by Kenny K. I kept the card simple by just using a couple of pieces of card which matched the colours of her dress. The sentiment comes from the Jungle Creatures set by Kanban.

Never ending card

Hello.

I have been browsing through techniques and decided I wanted to give a never ending card a try. I followed the directions from this video. All the stamps I used are from the Jungle Creatures set by Kanban.

 Opened three times:

Then it would be back to the front again.

Russian dolls

Hello.

This card uses a combination of four different stamp companies. The image of the doll comes from another magazine freebie set, which doesn't have a company name on it. I used the masking technique to turn it into three dolls. The clear flower is from the stamp set in Dovecraft's Sugar and Spice range. The block flower is from Kanban's Jungle Creatures set,and the sentiment comes from Hobbycraft's Thank You set.
