AND SOME MORE CHRIMBO CARDS :-)

Well Peeps,
I am still toiling away at cards and have got a huge rush on to get the ones posted !! At least going from here TO the UK is so much quicker than coming !! 
Here is a special one for a good friend who loves Guinea Pigs. The image is from MISS RACH.



He was coloured with Spectrum Noir pens and the background papers are from the 'Bright Christmas ' pack from FAR FAR HILLS. I added some Kindyglitz to his hat and a little snowflake embellie.


My second one is a commission card - the lady lives in Brighton and has 2 Yorkies, so it always has something to do with those things :-D


I used my cutting machine to cut out the window, the tree and the lights. I coloured things using Spectrum Noir pens and then added glitz and sparkles to the tree. The lights were finished with diamond glaze.

I am still finding extra things to do and now I feel I am coming down with something yukky - sweats, headache and muzzy head !!!!  :-(


Thanks for dropping in. :-)

A LITTLE BIT OF VINTAGE

Me again with a vintage creation. I got a panic 'phone call from a friend yesterday afternoon for a card for his Mum. She lives in Brighton, UK, so I always like to put something about that on it.




Inside

I used my Marianne Creatables Die set LR0281 which are filigree corners, but I used it in a slightly different way and  made the corner pop out separately. The background and inside is some left-over paper snippets from an old scrapbook kit I had.
Inspiration for the card design shape was taken from the Marianne Creatables shop site. The picture of Brighton is an old public image print and the Lady is one of half a dozen a friend sent me over a year ago now :-).
It's funny - sometimes when you have a rush job, things seem to go just right and other times you just sit panicking. I was pleased with how this turned out.
