Wall Hanging

Here is the wall hanging that I made at my last class with Kate. It would make a lovely present, but I haven't decided whether I like it too much to give away yet....good job Christmas is still a couple of months away. 

My favourite bits are the spiral roses and snowflakes in the background, which are made using the middle of a flower stamp.

Flower card

Here is a card that for once I made at home! It is based on a card on a lady called Sally Jo's blog. I think it must have been a bigger card and square but I adapted it to fit a 5x7 card. It is not 100% finished as I forgot to add a leaf and some bling in the middle of the flowers but I think it is looking good so far :)

Here is a car I made a few weeks ago at Kate's card class, I decided to use the sentiment 'thinking of you' as it is a nice general card that could be used as a sympathy, someone going in hospital or anything similar. I love the little double bow too, even if it was a nightmare to tie!

Yet another Christmas card!

I love this card that I made a couple of weeks ago at Kate's card class, it just looks so elegant. The baubles were punched out of Christmasy paper and glued in place and the greeting stamped before being embossed all over to give the finished texture. We then added a bow and two little gems to finish it off. 

Pretty Christmas tree and Penguin card

Last night I went to Kate's Wednesday night card class as usual and we made a card that has been sat on the shelf tempting us (especially me!) for a while now. Here it is flat....

and stood up......

It took a while so I didn't have time to start a new card, but then I remembered the Christmas card I started a couple of weeks ago and never finished! All the bits were still in my box so I managed to assemble it in the 20 minutes we had left.
I ended up editing a card Kate had made, replacing a Santa Claus Owl with a Penguin as I think they are so cute I am tempted to buy the owl builder punch just to make penguins!!
