Happy Birthday Mum

It was my mums birthday on Tuesday so I thought I would share the card I made for her with you all.

The papers are from a digiscrap download from 2peas, the letters are 'adapted' from chipboard letters (I say adapted because I added the swirly bit to the 1st m), the hearts are from a cuttle bug die, they have been glittered with doodlebug sugar coating. The sentiment is computer generated, bottom flowers are prima hydrangeas with a rose on top, and the rest is from my stash. I decorated and did a verse in the inside but didn't have time to photograph it. The colours are not actually as bright as they looks in the above photo.

My Lovely Mum

Look at what my lovely mum bought me when we went to the Art Stamps show at Newbury!

I haven't had a chance to use all the stamps yet but have made the below card using a stamposaurus stamp called princess 2. The sentiments come from a will 'n way set called Fairy Dust, the papers are from inspirations, nestabilities circles and scalloped circles, prima flowers, die cut swirls and ribbons and gems from my stash. I raised the girls body from the wings and filled them with iridescent glitter glue. You can see my love of flowers, ribbon and brads! I use them on nearly every card I make at the moment!

The same papers have been used as on the front This as the inside and I have cut the bottom edge with my wavey trinner blade, I added a die cut heart I found in my die cuts draw and a gem.
