Celebrate! It's Photo Week at JUGS

 

It's Photo Week at Just Us Girls

and Hosting is Lisa who has chosen

rather a fitting photo as 2016 is

a Leap Year and all those who were born

on the 29th get to Celebrate their special day.

 

I looked at the photo and thought how easy was this?

Just some great flourishes and a date.

Well I was wrong. After a few attempts

and some paper being thrown in the bin

I went with this -   

 

Not my favourite and not completely happy

with the end result but sometimes you just have

to say - It's not that bad after all...

 

I kept it cas as the photo is just that.

I used the following items -

White and coloured card stock

Scoring

Framed my flourish which is rightly named

Flourish from Kaisercraft.

inked with Memento Olive Grove (a little too dark )

Sentiment is IBS

Number 18 is from Cuttlebugs Hippie Chick Alphabet

Added some pearls to give my card a lift.

I

For a 'Special Friend'

 

Our latest challenge at

Crafty Cardmakers

is being Hosted by Marlene

and she has chosen the Theme

'For a Special Woman'

and I had a Special Friend in mind

so I made this card just for her.

 

 

I made it fairly cas as she is one that doesn't go

all over the top fancy with her cards.

 

I used the following products on my card -

Basic card stock Doily

Flower is inked with SU Rich Razzleberry

from Gina K Designs

Sentiment (perfect for my friend) is from

Lily of the Valley and given to me by her

so it is pretty special.

Framed with Spellbinders Circles/Lacey Circles

Punch is from Fiskars

and a few rhinestones.
