40TH BIRTHDAY CARD I WAS ASKED FOR

 Good Sunday hope you are all well & having a good weekend
we had brilliant sunshine yesterday but today we have rain. Thank you for popping into my little bit of blog land.Your all very welcome. My friend asked me to go with her to J C Creations yesterday at Maidstone in Kent as Julia Watts was Demonstrating there from 10am till 4pm i really enjoyed it.
Julia  showed lots of different techniques with texture past,mica powders & lot's more,she also used  some new spellbinders dies not the Christmas die's,they haven't been realest yet,she did say they were lovely.
 
I was asked to make a 40th birthday card using pink & white card,this is what i came up with
I first used a 8 x 8 scallop white card base & matted pink white pink card stock all embossed with the bed of roses embossing folder from Creative Expression designed by Sue Wilson
The striplet  die cut i cut at my friends awhile ago i did a marathon cutting session of her die's.
I think this is called block's again designed by our Sue.I backed them with pink card &  placed them across the the card front.
I cut several Camellia closed & open one's i shaped them & curled them & glued them together
The one's on the top right of card  i put smaller open petal's on top of the closed petal's.
I arranged on left hand corner some white tulle tied  a pink bow on top put a small pearl embellishment arranged the flowers  around added some Splendid Swirls from the
finishing touches range designed  by our Sue,added two pearl stick pin's too coordinate.
I then printed a Happy 40th birthday changed the colour from black too pink cut it out with the Pierced tag die again from Sue's finishing touches range i cut one in white & topped it onto the pink.
Then on the top right corner i put some white tulle ten arranged the other flowers on top & added some leaves & small pearl's in center of flower's
on the opposite corner YES a butterfly with two pearls in center.
on the inside i used the Largest die from the Noble pierced rectangle cut it out in pink card then printed the verse onto white card  i changed the colour to pink & cut out with the second die from
the ornate pierced design Noble die  set.cut a small butterfly & some more small flowers.
I also made a box & decorated the front with a butterfly & some babies breath in pink.
I wrapped the card in tissue paper before putting in the box
The  lady said she was very pleased with it & have another order from her for a wedding card in
August.
 Thank you  again for looking,if you would like to leave me a comment below i will appreciate it

matted them up then i cut another piece of coconut white card run it through the lines EF then matted it all on another piece of Periwinkle & onto the white base card added two Itty bitty bow's & printed my sentiment cut it out with pieced flag die's.

 In the middle i printed my sentiment again from my computer i have the My craft Studio graphics
program so i can change the size if needed & changed the black writing from black too blue then added a small size teddy to each side.again cut it out with the same die's as front but turned it round.
Hope you understood all that HaHa.
 

 These two pictures taken by Daddy in his Christening suit before he left for church thought i would show you he was smiling until he got all bewildered at Christening bless him.  

 His birthday cake was again made by my clever daughter Lisa,she doesn't take after me.lol
but she was very stressed having to make two cakes at once.
She was Harry's God mother. I was so pleased Darren & Sam asked her.

Harry's Christening Card

 Hello thank you for calling in today hope your all well, with this crazy weather we are having
We have sun today yesterday was like winter even put the heating on is it really flaming June.

This is the card i made for my Gorgeous Grandson Harry's Christening on 7th of June.
I started with 8 x 8 white card base.I matted it with milk foundation card first
I ran it through the lines Embossing Folder from Sue Wilson's range then i cut a smaller piece & ran that through the Beaded Fanfare Embossing  Folder matted them on top.
Then i cut the Pierced rectangle from the Nobel collection using the 2nd & 3rd die in the set
Then i cut 4th & 5th die out but i left the fall out pieces in cut a spellbinders cross in center & added a pearl to middle. i cut several closed Camellias & made three flowers to top right corner & one for the bow with cream tulle & some petite finery added small pearls.
I stamped Christening  in clear perfect medium & heat embossed it in white embossing powder & cut it out with the pieced flag die from Sue Wilson. Sorry i didn't photograph it very well also didn't photograph the box i made. Silly me.
  

 In the inside i did a verse & cut it out with the same die's as card. I think i will make another 
flower to add on a bow inside.

I hope you like Harry's card if you would like to leave me a comment that would be lovely

Harry's Christening card

Hello & a warm welcome too all that visit my blog, i really appreciate you popping in.If you can leave me a comment i would be so grateful thank you very much.

This post is for Harry's Christening invitation's.I thought i would show how they have turned out
being they have been changed quite a few times.Firstly Sam sent me a picture of the sort of card she liked so off i go & did a near copy of it & her saying yes she liked it, think i made about 10,then got text asking if i could incorporate 1st birthday & Christening with  HARRY JAMES as well.
So tried sent picture again, but could she make sure it was what they wanted as i would have to start again So she text came back, & said as i have to start from scratch again, could she change it to just a non card just a 6 x 4 with Harry's picture on the front & the wording on the back.
So this is the end result Sam said she loved it & i said Thank God for that.
She wanted 30 so i needed 60 frame's. still got 20 to do.

Thank you all for taking the time  & looking at my blog.
