Birthday card for Nikki

 Good Sunday evening hope you have had a lovely weekend & kept warm it's been very cold
in Broadstairs very strong winds & heavy rain. Down by the sea  the waves were crashing up the sea walls & over the top a few people got soaked.I'm just praying we don't get snow i hate the white stuff.
Thank you for calling into my little blog. I hope you like this card in a box.It would be lovely if you could leave me a comment please. Thank you

I made this card for Nikki a special young lady. I have got too know her
through her mummy my lovely virtual friend Sheila whom i nearly met as apparently
i was standing only a foot away from her outside the NEC .waiting for a taxi so near yet so far away
I didn't know she was going as i would have loved meeting her.

 I brought the template from Robert Adam's from his stand at NEC i have made the smaller one before but loved this bigger version. It came with the die for the flaps i also cut two back to back for each of the bottom panels & added flat backed pearls round the middle & decorated it with butterfly's & flowers.
I am thrilled Sheila emailed me saying Nikki loved it.
This should have been the first picture





Sorry for the rubbish photography i should have taken from the top angle  but hopefully you like my card in a box.
Thank you all again for popping in Love & Hug's Lynda xxxx

NOEL STAR

 Hello welcome again too my blog. Hope you are all well & keeping warm
In this very wet & windy weather we are having lately.
November is disappearing fast i must get more Christmas cards made as running out of time.
hope you like my new card a very simple one.Please leave me a comment I would love to know
what you think.

As i said a very easy one to make White base 8 x 8 card & a grey black mat cut with Sue Wilson Noble square die then a white mat, the focal point it made by tearing black tissue & using glossy accents & sticking them onto a piece of card leaving some folds for dimension so i'ts  not flat. once dry i rubbed cosmic shimmer silver gilding wax over it. Cut two creative Expressions designed by Sue Wilson's trees & the Noel star dies out & used spray glue & covered with creative Expressions  ice snow for a bit of bling.

Thank you for taking the time & pop into my blog.

GOLDEN ANGEL

 Hi everyone the weather is horrible again here raining & strong winds.
Hope your getting better weather.Your all welcome to my little blog
I have a Christmas card for you today if you like it please leave me a comment
I appreciate them thank you.

I started with a 8 x 8 blank base card matted with black then foundation gold card
then another black mat. I embossed Sue Wilson's Classic adorned rectangle die with the gold
i made the frame by embossing first the cut it after.i covered a piece of card with sticky sheet
Then gilded it with gold mica flakes then glued my frame onto it using  mountain foam & some cosmic drys clear glue, trimmed the excess off from under frame.
I cut the 2015 Christmas Angel Designed by Sue Wilson onto the front of gilding flakes
cut some of the stars & the joy also in the set. i shadowed the joy with black card.



 Thank you all Hug's Lynda xxxx
