Hi Crafters,
Well I'm really not sure about this card, wasn't even sure whether to put it on my blog! After seeing Lisa's CAS cards recently on her blog, I was inspired to try one myself but I think its too simple! Tried it with a corner die, some twine and even buttons but had to stop myself and remember that this card was going to be clean and simple! I wish I was happy with it though because it didn't take very long to make - it looks like it too though doesn't it? Oh well, at least I tried! I'd like to enter this card in the Joanna Sheen Challenge which is for a 'Father's Day' or male card. Thanks for looking,
Hugs, Karen xx

18th Girly Card
Hi Crafters,
I made this 18th Birthday Card with a new stamp I got at Port Sunlight - thought it would be handy for my girly cards! I coloured the image with my promarkers and paper pieced their dresses to match the background papers. I added some WOC flowers, stickles, matching ribbon and some pearls - job done!
I'd like to enter my card in the Passion for ProMarkers challenge which is 'floral fantasy' (use at least 5 flowers'.
Hope you like it and thanks for looking!
Hugs, Karen xx

Russian Dolls
Hi crafters,
I've got something a bit different this time! I was asked to make a card with a Russian doll theme and this is what I came up with - what do you think?
I made them with some Lily of the Valley papers, I used my MS punch and embossed the background behind the dolls. I punched some flowers and distressed all the edges with Tim Holtz ink. I coloured the faces with my promarkers but this was the only bit of colouring I did which was a bit weird! I'd like to enter my card in the Joanna Sheen blog challenge which is 'Spots and Stripes'.
Thanks for looking,
Hugs Karen xx
