Butterflies birthday

So glad you dropped by 

Been busy the last couple of days, Hubby has the man flu and needs looking after.  He looked after me very well when I broke my wrists last year so I felt I need to return the favour but I don't have a very good bedside manner so I leave him in bed for as long as possible.  They say sleep is the best thing when you're ill don't they?

On to today's card it's a very simple one as I needed to get 2 cards done for the same day.  One female and one male, not so good at male ones, find it hard to come up with ideas but I keep trying. Will show you that one in a couple of days. Hope my cousin liked this one.

The materials used are:

Ink: Soft Sky, Lost Lagoon

Card stock: Shimmery White, Soft Sky

Stamps: Butterfly Basics, Hardwood

Thinlits: Butterflies

Accessories: Basic Rhinestones

Will be back again soon with more cards

Son's new home

Hello there, so glad you dropped by

Today I'm showing you the card I made for my youngest son and his at the time girlfriend. He is the last of my children to set up a new home of his own although he left home about 6 years ago.  He moved into it towards the end of May and we saw it for the first time last weekend when we were down there (he's a submariner and lives in Plymouth) will tell you all about that soon. 

I'm sorry about the loss of the Homemade holiday stamp set and co-ordinating framelits, and will carry on using them as they make great new home cards without too much cutting and as my upline Peg will tell you I hate cutting anything.

The materials used are:

Inks: Chocolate chip, Hello honey, Old olive, Soft sky, Soft suede, Wild wasabi, VersaMark

Card stock: Sahara sand, Whisper white

Card base: (NSU)

Markers: Daffodil delight, Real red, Soft suede

Stamps: Hardwood, Holiday home (retired), White christmas

Framelits: Bitty banners, Circles collection, Homemade holiday (retired)

Punches: Owl builder

Accessories: White embossing powder, Aqua painters (for the roof and windows)

Will be back again soon with more cards
