Another easel card..........

These are just so addictive!! I cut the scalloped circle fromWinter Woodland. The tree is a Kanban stamp which I embossed, and the greeting is an Inkadinkado stamp.

Happy Birthday Mum!!

This is for my Mum, who loves flowers of all kinds....the primulas are from Freshly Picked, and the font is from Winter Woodland.

Thanks for the apples

A colleague at work kindly gave me loads of apples from the tree in her garden, and I was inspired to make this card (any excuse really!)

I cut the basket and apples from Pooh & Friends, and the sentiment from Opposites attract.

Perhaps she'll give me some more apples!!

Good Luck

I made these cards for a couple of colleagues who are leaving soon. I cut the tulips and the pot from Walk in My Garden.

Instructions for pop-up cards...

I had several nice comments about my pop-up cards, and a few requests to share the instructions, so here goes:

1. I used a five inch square card, and decorated the "upper" side with patterned paper , and the "lower" side with a stamped greeting.

2. I cut a strip of card 4.5 inches long, and scored and folded at 1", "2, 3" and 4" (see above)

3. I overlapped the half inch section and glued it  to form a square (see above)

4. Finally I glued that square into the fold of the card, and stuck the cup-cake (but of course it could be anything ) to the third side.

They are so easy to make, but so effective. I hope these instructions help...I'd love to see what you make!

Sorry I forgot...

This is for someone whose birthday I missed....I'm toying with a sentiment along the lines of; "Sorry I turtally forgot"!!
The turtle and the plant are both from Pooh and Friends, and I welded them together in Design Studio.

More pop-up cards!!!

I really think I am in danger of becoming addictted to these pop-up cards!! The 18 is cut from Plantin Schoolbook, and the cake from Doodlecharms. The paper is some lovely stuff that my friend Lynne gave me....thank you Lynne!!
