A few thankyou cards

Well today was our final Mainly Music of the year much to the disappointment of Jerremy and his friends.  I think a few Mum's will miss our Friday get togethers as well!!

Here are a few of the cards I made for the ladies who lovingly give up their time, every week, to make Mainly Music possible for us.

Myles' Birthday Card - Back Blogged

Yes Jerremy has finally been invited to a Birthday party - invitation and all.
This is the card I made for Myles - I just can't bring myself to buy another card, why would I!!

I am really proud of this card because I didn't use a sketch, I actually had an original thought and went ahead with it.  It took me about 30 minutes roughly, I'm a bit of a slow thinker!!  Now it wasn't all that advanced but, hey, we all have to start somewhere.

Materials Used:
Cricut for lettering - don't know what happened with the shadow not being the right size but I still went with it anyways!!
Random cardstock and paper - as usual
Clear Hooray! stamp repeated 3 times
Random Ribbon
Car sticker popped on foam tape
Kindyglitz

My First Cards

I have been gathering supplies and procrastinating for so long, that I didn't think I would ever get anything made!! So here they are, the first cards I have ever made.

So many firsts today. First time using my versamark pad, a clear stamp, embossing powders, my heat gun, dimension magic, my zyron machines (I love these!!)
I used my Cricut too!!I had a lot of fun making these and I feel a great sense of satisfaction. The photos do not do the dimension magic justice.

This first card I made was for my good friend, Laura for her Birthday. I stamped the hear with a versamark pad, repeating a pattern. I then embossed with gold opals and used my heat gun to melt and seal. I also embossed the edges by dipping the heart edges in the versamark pad. I then filled all the empty space with dimension magic. This photo really does not do it justice. I used my zyron machines to glue everything and I used a rubon for the 'precious' then used dimension magic on it. Finally I added a few stick on diamontes for bling.

I made this for a girlfriend who now has her third daughter... discovered premade chipboard sayings can disguise embossing horrors!!

This card just came from my imagination... When you are on a roll stick to it!!
