Bah! Humbug! Challenge #6 Snowmen

I am still managing to keep up with the challenges on the Bah! Humbug! blog, this week it is snowmen and or women. I have used a free digi stamp but am so sorry but I hopped around so many I now cannot remember where I got him, when I do I will let you know.

The card is a 6 inch square and the backing papers are from the free disc that comes with the Creativity magazine by Do-Crafts this month. I have only just got my Martha Stewart punches so had to give them a go and I am well pleased with them, I got four punches from QVC when they were the TSV last week. I decided not to put a greeting on the front but tied a bit of ribbon around instead.

I do hope you like him as he could be on his way to one of you this year, you just never know!

80th Birthday Card using the Elegant Fans CD

I've been asked by a friend to make her MIL an 80th birthday card, the only stipulation was it had to have both the word mum and 80 on the front.

This is printed onto silk finish photopaper and just dressed up a bit with the panels of lace using my Martha Stewart punch and a panel of pink card with some embossed lines, it had been my intention to bling it up a bit with some gems but now it's done I don't think it needs it but you never know it may end up with a few on the edge of the fan before it goes to it's new home. The word and numbers are done using the Hippy Chick dies in the Cuttlebug and of course a lovely tassle.
