Hedgehog Birthday!

Good Afternoon!

Today's card has a birthday theme so don't worry there's nothing Christmassy to share this time ... however I can't promise this with my next post haha

The card that I've made today is using one of my favourite Penny Black stamps for Masculine cards. I think you can tell that I'm a bit obsessed with my Penny Black stamps at the moment.

A Christmas Wish!

Good Afternoon!

Just a quick card for you this afternoon that I made last week, I recycled an old shop bought card that I received for Christmas as I thought the main image would work perfectly as a Topper! Of course this card won't be sold and will just be sent to a family member.

I'd also like to quickly mention that I was lucky enough to win the previous challenge over at ALLSORTS with their challenge of 'Bears' with my previous card. 

This was a lovely surprise especially as I'm just getting back into card-making :)

INGREDIENTS -

Old Christmas Card

Trimcraft Design Paper

Gold Cardstock

Cheesecloth & Gold Glitter Organza Ribbon

Berries & Prisma Embellishments

Adhesive Pearls

A Quick & Simple Christmas Bear!

Good Afternoon!

I apologise in advance for another Christmas card, I'm becoming a tad obsessed with the season!

Today's card is one that I made this morning in a rather quick and simple style. Perfect for if you need a batch of cards but still want to give them some layers! 

I dug out this older stamped image that was stored away as I thought it'd go perfectly with a gold star embellishment that I've had for many years stashed away in a pot.
