Alice is 7

Good Morning everyone, i hope you had a good weekend

My niece Alice is 7 this week so these are the 2 cards ive made for her. 

8x8" card.  A friend sent me these stamped space people last year and i found a space background in my stash so i decided to make a shaker card. 

I picked up on the colours in the background and went with a soft turquoise and rich plum pearl and white linen cardstock and my grand circle dies to die cut a frame for the card front.  I embossed the plum pearl with a dotty embossing folder, adhered them all together and glued acetate to the back.

I coloured the space characters, plants, rocket, stars with alcohol markers. I adhered the background paper to my card front and attached the stamped images, using glue gel for the space people.  

I added foam tape to the back of the frame, making sure to leave no gaps.  I sprinkled in sequins, glitter and gems and added the frame on top to seal it all in.  Computer printed sentiment to finish.

Items Used:

Spacepeople stamps - brand unknown

Crafters companion 8x8 spot embossing folder

Art by marlene paper pad 'out of this world'

CraftUk ltd white linen cardstock

Shaker bits

and card 2

A5 white cardbase.  I found this fab rainbow zebra paper in a pad and as Alice and family have just taken on a new horse i thought it ideal and a bit different.  I cut out 3 zebras from the 12x12 paper.  I took 2 happy birthday print backgrounds in pale green and lilac picking up on the colours in the zebras and matted them onto pink glitter card with a panel of white strip embossed cardstock and layered onto the card front.

I added the zebras with glue gel and computer printed sentiment die cut into a circle to finish.  I didn't add a separate birthday sentiment as i have the birthday printed cardstock for the background.  Glitter glue highlights to finish. 

Items Used:

Crafts you create 12x12 paper pad 'down in the jungle'

Sizzix diagonal strip embossing folder

Anna Marie Birthday printed card

Ranger stickles 'twinkle'

B&M pink glitter card
