Good Morning everyone
These are the 2 cards I made for my niece Lizzy's 11th birthday in December.
Last year i won 3 digi stamps from thepapershelter, one i chose with Lizzy in mind is called 'Jazzy ferret'
His quirky style is ideal for Lizzy, I decided to use the pre coloured digi so found an old 6x6 paper pad in my stash that matched the purple & green colours perfectly so I decided to make a fancy fold to use as many papers as i could! I swear papers breed & multiply in the dark of the drawer! lol
I printed the image out and cut out. After folding my card i added papers to the front, matting onto a pinky lilac holographic card which really dances in the light. I die cut an oval from white, added to the front and added the ferret with a wobbler so that he dances around. I added glossy accents to his sunglasses
Inside the card i matted more papers from the paper with the holographic card. I stamped the birthday sentiment and die cut into a white circle and added to the left side with a fishtail banner behind. I added a plain white die cut to the right side to write the greeting on.

You can find details on how i made this fold here
Items Used:
Papershelter digi stamp 'jazzy ferret'
Bobunny paper pad 'Enchanted garden' (very old)
woodware sentiment stamp
Pink holographic card
Spellbinders circle & oval dies
MFT fishtail banner dies

and the 2nd card i made for Lizzy is with a dragon as she loves her dragons
I made a diamond pop out card from white and cut panels from a green, lilac & gold tone marbled paper, i added a die cut square to the front panel with foam tape. I stamped the Katzelkraft dragon onto a piece of card inked long ago with green & orange brusho & pixie powders, I cut him out and added to the front with glue gel.
I die cut happy birthday alphas from a snippet of orange mirri card and added to the side panels. I stamped and added 'you rock' next to the dragon to finish
Just showing from different angle. I gave Lizzy this card as gave her a dragon themed gift so my parents gave her the ferret card.
Items Used:
Katzelkraft stamps 'dragon'
Marbled paper pad from the works
Wonky stitched square die
Orange mirri card
Brusho powders 'emerald,lime & orange'
Cosmic shimmer Pixie powders 'red'
Thank you for stopping by once again.

ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards Emma,the layout,papers and image on each is brilliant
ReplyDeleteThose Nieces do keep you busy with cards Emma and these for Lizzy are really super and fabulous folds, sure she loved them.
ReplyDeleteSmiled at what you said about DP's, I was really brave and gave all mine away when I had to clear my craft room for it's re-vamp last summer. I rarely used them and seemed better to re-home, but would you believe this last week or so I've been itching to buy some.
