Unicorn Birthday

Today I have for you two of the 'same but different' cards. Roy;s great niece is obsessed with unicorns, so I went looking for unicorn stamps and found these sweet ones from Lawn Fawn. I decided to make two cards while I had them out as the little girl next door is 4 later this month.

 

I used some lightish blue card from the snippets box and stencilled some darker blue "clouds"as a background. The unicorns, fairies cake and clouds were all stamped on snippets of white card and fussy cut before being arranged. Some glitter stars added to one and the fairies' wings were also glittered.

Allsorts Celebration

The Allsorts Challenge is celebrating this week. It is their 700th challenge! I thought this birthday card  would be a good entry, and would show that I have made something other than Christmas cards.

As my regular readers will know  we had twin boys living next door, but they moved a few months ago. My new neighbours have a very sweet little girl who has just had her third birthday. This is a very quick card that I made for her, as we only found out about her birthday the night before. The stamps are all Lawn Fawn, coloured with Copics, and I drew a wiggly frame to finish it off.

Twins Birthday Cards

Gosh it’s a long time since I posted anything. Did you miss me? I haven’t done much crafting in the last couple of weeks as I had cataract surgery on both eyes last week. Distance vision is now better than it was with my glasses. The downside is I need reading glasses to read my phone! 

Anyway onto some cards which I made some time ago. You may remember from last year that there are twin boys living next door and they recently had their fourth birthday. As I’m writing this they are out in the garden, playing with what seems to be new toys - bicycles with bells!

As they are not identical twins I always make the same card but different for them. This year I used the Lawn Fawn double slider die set with suitable traffic!

 

 

 

A red one and a blue one!

 

 

 

Apparently they were delighted with them! Lots of snippets used  so I’m sharing in the Playground.

More octopi!

I've been playing with that little octopus stamp again! This time I stamped it randomly in different colours, mounted it onto some bright pink card and then onto a square card blank.

Job done!
