40th Birthday Card

Hiya,
Hope you are all well.  Here's a card I've made for a friend's 40th Birthday.  I've used a gorgeous digi image from Saturated Canary and coloured it in with my promarkers.  I've added flowers from WOC and a couple of heart pins in matching colours.  I added plenty of stickles to add a bit of glamour!  I hope she likes the card! (Sorry about the photo - I think it's a bit blurry!)
I'd like to enter this card in the  I ♥ ProMarkers  challenge which is ' Anything Goes'.
Thanks for looking, hugs Karen xx

House Mouse Singing!

Hiya everyone,
I'm back with another House Mouse card - I love these little mice!!  I've coloured them in with my promarkers and added a touch of glitter on the flowers.  I've used my MS punch around the edge and made my own purple flowers to match the papers.  The music stamp has been distressed with a Tim Holtz distress ink, Antique Linen and the rest of the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The ribbon and pearls just finish it off.  I'd like to enter this card in the House Mouse and Friends challenge 'Ribbons and Pearls' (HMFMC140).  Thanks for looking xx

Lili of the Valley Card

Hi
It's me again - second post of the day!  This is a Welsh 70th Birthday card I made for a lady who loves to bake cakes.  This stamp from Lily of the Valley was perfect and I used some freebies from a magazine - the wooden spoon and whisk!  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I used my MS punch to create the border.  It's an easel card which I find really hard to photograph!!.  I'd like to enter this card in the Lili of the Valley Birthday Card competition.  Thanks for looking xx

House Mouse Sewing



Hi Bloggers,
This is a Welsh House Mouse Birthday Card I made for a 16 year old who's keen on sewing.  I coloured my image with promarkers and added a bit of glitter!  I printed some spools on my PC and added cotton in coordinating colours.  A cute sewing machine charm was added to the bow and a few Wild Orchid Craft flowers to finishes it off.  I'm entering this card in the 'Love You Sew Much' Challenge on the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge.  Thanks for looking xx
