1st BIRTHDAY CARD


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

I do hope you are all having a good weekend.
It's very windy in my part of the country at the moment.

Today I have a 1st Birthday card I made for my DIL's little Granddaughter who turned one recently.
So this fits in with the theme over at the Allsorts Challenge this week.


Side view because of the glare of the gold mirri. 


This is a 8"x8" size card.
The image is a Hunkydory one, and isn't she sooooooo! cute.
personalised it with her name and age.
Flowers and leaves from my stash

CHRISTMAS CARD FOR A HUSBAND


Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

Still coughing so much that I can't sleep, and if that's not playing me up my RLS is too.
Still I shouldn't grumble as there are people far worse off than me.

So before we get too much into the New Year I thought I had better show this card I was asked to make for a persons Husband.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
I embossed some pearlised card with a Crafters Companion embossing folder.
The Christmas calender is from the Pink Gem website.
I die cut the letters for husband 3 times out of Snippets, and glued them together to make them stand out.
The holly was die cut out of Snippets too, and I added a few peel offs for the berries.

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

80th BIRTHDAY CARD AND BOX


Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.

Been looking after my Granddaughter today as she doesn't go back to school till tomorrow.
She is my youngest Granddaughter.
We also had lunch with my eldest Granddaughter today, and her mother my Daughter.
 Before we went to lunch my youngest Granddaughter wanted to make cards.

Fingers crossed Win 10 seems to be behaving today thankfully.

Last week I was asked to make a card for my Daughter's boss who is Welsh, and in Wales we call our Mum Mam.
So here is the card and box I made her.




This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to fit.
Now the order was for Lavender Colours and I didn't have any Lavender card so I sprayed my card with Tattered Angels Mica spray to get the colour I was after.
As the lady in  question  loves handbags and flowers my Daughter suggested to cascade the flowers down the handbag.
I am quite pleased with how it turned out.
The letters were made by gluing 3 lots of each letter to make them stand out nicely.
Put some ribbon on the handle of the bag to represent a scarf.
Hope you like this as much a I do.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

NEPHEW BIRTHDAY CARD

Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends,
and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and the wonderful comments you make.
I really appreciate everyone that is made.

I made this card a while ago for my daughter to
give her nephew, and realized I hadn't posted it.
Her nephew is my Grandson who is a Goal
Keeper with the local club he plays for.
He is 11years of age, and a really great Goal
Keeper, and has won man of the match a few 
times, the Golden Boot, and his team has let 
the least goals in his league.
As you can see I am really proud of him, as he
suffers with Asthma, and had a spell in hospital
a couple of weeks back with a bad attack, and it
was the first time he had been in hospital.
In any rate I am waffling on as my dear blog
friend Sue P would say.




This is a 6"x6" size card.
The paper and the image are printed from the
Cupcake Crafting CD Tumble Teds Pastimes.
I bought this CD when it was on offer of just
£1 so a bargain.

Thank you again for your visit.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
