40th BIRTHDAY CARD AND BOX

Good evening to all you wonderful and talented blog friends and
visitors.
Thank you for all your good wishes for my great niece.
After all that panic and rushing to get the card made in a great
hurry, baby decided it didn't want to be born just yet, so she was
sent home.
Will let you know when the little bundle does make an appearance.

Thank you for all your fabulous comments on my work.
I know I keep saying this but I really love to read your comments,

Today we have a 40th Birthday Card and Box.

CHRISTMAS ANGELS

Hi and good morning to you wonderful and craft loving people.
THANK YOU soooooo much for your visit and the wonderful
comments left on my work.
I love  being a part of this wonderful craft community. 
Everyone of you is soooooo generous and kind, and most of all
I love visiting all your blogs and viewing your wonderful creations.
We are so varied in our styles, and each different style makes me
think how clever that person was to think of that formula.

I know it's Sunday and a very busy day for most so I really
do appreciate your visit.
If this goes out okay I will be having lunch with my Dad and lots of my family today.
Don't you just love a big family get together, sadly it doesn't
happen that often so when my granddaughter suggested we
all go to see my Dad everyone just jumped at the chance.

My card today is a Christmas one, I hope I haven't showed
this before, I just can't remember.

70th BIRTHDAY CARD AND BOX

Hi and good morning to all my blog friends and visitors.
It's Monday morning and the start of a new week.
I hope each and everyone of you had lovely weather over 
the weekend.
THANK YOU for all your lovely comments on my 
creations.
I love to read each one, and appreciate all your precious
time taken to visit me, and make a comment.
My card today is a card and a box I made for a friends
70th Birthday.

Those of you who know my work by now will know I like
to decorate my box to go with the card.

The ingredients for this is.
I made a grey 8x8 card out of 2 A4 pieces of card.
I didn't have the right colour  pattered pearlised card so I
inked a cream one with a mixture of pigment inks I had.
This came out a lovely shade of peach.
I cut out an aperture with the Spellbinders Grand Scolloped
Oval.
Then I cut a smaller one and glued it with sticky pads.
I made a 70 on my Cricut machine, and I also made my
roses with different size flowers off the george basic
cartridge. Glued the edges and dipped them in glitter.
I cut some Spellbinders Parisian Accents and put two
colour ribbons between. 
I didn't have the right colour ribbons so you've guessed
it I died them with a combination of distress ink and 
pigment inks.
Cautionary tale wear gloves for the grey.
I added some peach flat backed pearls to the edges of 
the scollops.
The Butterfly was made out of Spellbinders Fanciful Flight
die.
The box was made in a similar way but I din't have any
more of the patterned card.
I used a Martha Stewart Punch for round the edges of the 
top of the box. This was the large Daisy Punch I think
you can just see part of it.
Well thats all for today folks. 
I hope you like it.
Not sure about the peel offs on the 70 of the card.
What do you think.
I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny.
