Boys and their Toys

This is a stamped card I made for my husband. I used Clarity stamps with dye based inks and a masking technique for the feature panel. I've not done much stamping before but I was inspired by Barbara Grey of Clarity Stamps after seeing her on C&C and her DVDs. Well worth watching.

Mono Moments

A couple of cards I created using the Marianne Design Creatables Ribbon Flower 3 die - LR0110. I made use of the little waste "dots" from the flowers and leaves to add to the decoration. Fiddly but fun and rather effective, if I say so myself!
The background on the left was from a Sissix embossing folder where it has the swirls, dots and a blank centre panel all in one.

Birthday

It was my birthday recently and my husband added a cute new "Charlie Bear" to my small collection and my son gave me a beautiful mirror.
