MOTHERS DAY CARDS
These are 2 cards my friend asked me to make her. one for her mother, and one for her mother-in-law. i used the Joanna Sheene sillhouette CD to create my images which i then Decoupaged and added some flower soft to the little baskets at the corners. and to the little flowers in the girls basket and around her.i used another Joanna Sheene CD to create a picture frame which i thencut out and applied to the scene with 3D foam strips. i then made little butterflies on the computer and printed them to vellum which i cut out and decoupaged and attached to the front of the card. I applied some rennie mackintosh peel offs to the top/bottom edges and corners of the bottom card. On the top card i used hand made paper which was a duck egg blue with silver metalic swirls. I matted, layered / enameled the little mothers day poems and attached them across the bottom of the decoupaged images, and applied little butterflies to the corners of the poems.

Wedding Envelope.
My Friend was married recently, and having made her and steven a wedding card, i wanted the envelope to look unusual, so, having never made a large envelope before i decided to open an envelope up and use it as the template. i then used the cup cakes cd rom and printed out a rose patterned paper which i cut out and assembled. i then made a card for the front and tied with gold/cream organza ribbon. i was pleased with the result
