Brown and blue and white

I needed to make a quick wedding anniversary card, so I decided to tie it in with the Penny Black Saturday challenge here; http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.co.uk

Garden shed....

This card is for my father-in-law who has a birthday early next month. The stamp is "garden shed" by Stamposaurus.

Time for tea

A colleague asked me to make a card for her secretary who is retiring soon. She was most specific that it needed to have a garden theme, have a teapot with two cups and saucers and say "time for tea" on it. Always keen to please, this is what I came up with!!

50th birthday

A friend asked me to make a birthday card for her son's 50th birthday. She told me that he liked to teach pottery, to buy and sell silver jewellery, and works in "radiation protection"........the pottery really seemed like my best bet!!!

Fly high....

My husband's nephew will be 19 next week, and I used some lovely Woodware stamps to make this card for him.

With thanks from Wilson

My friend Lynn asked me to make two thank you cards from her dog Wilson (she is going away for a fortnight and he is staying with her parents for a week, and then her partner's parents for a week). She gave me some pictures of Wilson, and this is what I came up with!

Hello Hannah

A colleague asked me to make a card for her friends daughter who is just 4 and has been diagnosed with leukaemia. She asked that it was bright and cheerful and included a teddy. I cut the bear from the "Christmas" cartridge.

Happy Anniversary

A colleague at work asked me to make an anniversary card for her husband. She was very specific that she wanted the two of them on it with their two black dogs and their pet duck! I cut the people from "Paper Dolls", the dogs from "Animal Kingdom" and I think the duck was from "A child's year".
