Steampunk cards

These are are my steampunk birthday cards for my sisters and sis-in-law .

all the flourishes and cogs were done on my pazzles.

the dresses are kanban steampunk stamps.

i used distress inks to colour the cards and the fabric to make the roses.

i used Tim Holtz stamps to make backgrounds.



kids christmas wreath

Scarlett's handy Christmas wreath

 i just added some handmade felt roses and ribbon.



kids christmas cards

Quick and easy cards to make with the kids. i really wanted to send handmade cards from the kids but needed to make 16 without Scarlett getting bored (as kids do) so last year i got out the colours, tissue paper, glitter and stickers and ask Scarlett nicely if she wanted to fill the sheet of paper (A4 x2 ) with colour. Which she did i also took photos as she did so on the back off the cards i could put a pic of her making the cards.



once dry i cut the A4 sheet into 8, then cut A4 card in to 2 and scored

 she also made them in blue

i did the backs on serif craft artsit

She really enjoyed making these cards and everyone loved reseving them. X
