Wedding Cards.

These are cards I made for my cousins wedding.

I got the idea for this card from a fellow crafters blog I knew I would have to give this a go when I seen the card on Mary's blog.

The love heart background is stamped.

Here are some close up shots of the hearts.

I used a Cuttlebug folder to emboss the "dress" & then glittered it using Stickles.

I added some gems for the necklace.

I cut the lapels & bow tie by hand from black cardstock I had glittered using Crafters Companion Glitter Spray & added black gems for the buttons.

Here is the second card for the lovely couple.

This was done using the patchwork technique that I have become addicted to at the moment.

Here is a photo of the newly weds.

Don't they look so happy.

I also met a fellow crafter at the wedding. Eve from Crafty Queens was doing the photography. It really is a small world lol!!

You also get to choose one Mami Doodles image of your choice.

I am late posting about the challenge as I was at a family wedding 

on Friday when the challenge went live.

Here is my DT card for this challenge.

I used the cute little elephant from the Party Animals set (there are 3 little cuties in this set) & I used ProMarkers to colour the image.

I used glossy accents on the balloon.

The ProMarker combo is

Warm Grey 4,3,2 & 1.

Rose Pink, Pink Carnation & Baby Pink.

The papers were from my scrap box & I wove the panel behind the image from strips of the patterned paper & plain white paper.

The challenge will run until Thursday the 23rd of February at midday (GMT)

Patchwork Cards.

I recently bought some new craft supplies from this place & came across their blog. 

They had a very simple but beautiful card made from making patchwork with little triangles of different patterned papers & thought I'd give it a go.

Well if I am not addicted to doing these now!!! 

They are brilliant for using up all those tiny scraps of paper that is too beautiful to bin.

Here are 3 that I made & there are more in the making!!

Check out the shop too, they are fairly good with their prices & the shipping doesn't go up the more you spend, it is by weight but is still cheap enough & doesn't take too long &  to make it even better you get Charlie points every time you buy something & it all adds up!!

The You Make Me Smile stamp is from a Hero Arts set (I think)
