Welcome!

Welcome to my blog, which one day, hopefully, should be filled with wonderful handmade card ideas! My goal is to create a blog with ideas for some easy, 'make-able' cards for you to take inspiration from! (It's what I've always needed to help me!)

Sonny's Christening Card

So you may have seen the Wardrobe Card that I made back in January for my newborn 2nd cousin, well it was recently Sonny's Christening and this is the card I made...

It was a bit of simple painting for this one.. I made the template on the computer and printed it off. This meant I could cut out some parts and use it to stop and paint issues. I sponged the red bus shape on to the card, and used a paint brush and grey paint for the stairs, the driver and his name. I also found some big brown buttons and stuck them on the front... I did want to make the buttons go round but I was running out of time and didn't manage to think of a simple way for that to work, but oh well, his parents LOVED it  :)

Thank You Card

Revision and exams seem to be taking over my life at the moment, and although I've found time to still make a few, I haven't been up to scratch on posting about my cards recently! I think I should get myself up-to-date otherwise I'll never post them!
This one's a very simple one, and to be quite honest I wasn't greatly pleased with it, but my Mum said it was lovely(?!)
A few weeks back I went on a weekend trip to Denmark, just me and my parents, leaving early Saturday and coming back on the Monday morning (just in time for school! :/ ). We were staying with friends of ours and I've never been to Denmark before, but I would recommend it, it is very lovely, and very quiet!
I thought I'd make a nice Jubilee themed card and used some papers that came with my Creativity magazine! I think the card is pretty self-explanatory... I cut out 8 triangles from the papers and stuck them onto the card, joining it up with some red ribbon, simple!
