Bird-day Owls

Good Morning everyone

Today is a fun DL (Slimline) gate fold card, using those fab katzelkraft owl stamps again. Ive teamed them up with some woodgrain paper to give a birdhouse feel

Approx size 8x4" After folding my card i cut paper to fit and stencilled on some detail with green oxide in. I attached to the found and rounded all the corners. I stamped my owls and coloured with inktense pencil. Foliage border die cut from green brusho card and added to the bottom of the card and then i arranged my owls. Die cut sentiment from black and white card to finish.

Peeking into the inside...

I covered the inside with a 'woody' paper, added stencilling and some die cut ivy as i think they would have a little ivy growing on the inside of the bird house😀 3 more owls. I added glossy accents to all the eyes.

70th Slider card

Good Morning everyone, i hope you had a good weekend.

Today im sharing a slider card made using a sizzix die to celebrate a friends 70th birthday, she absolutely loves her flowers so ive gone for full on flower power😀

card size 6x6". I cut a piece of paper to fit the card front, i then used the slider die set to cut the front panel out of the middle of my paper, using papers from the same paper pad i die cut the remaining elements, i then attached the paper 'frame' to the card front. Where i knew the slider opening would be i placed a piece of pink dotty paper and stamped '70' a few times.

After making up the slider part using the piece i cut out of the middle and the pull up tab section which id cut from dotty paper I attached this with foam tape around the sides and bottom. Doing it this way just means the paper matches and pattern lines up, otherwise you can cut the who slider section from different papers - hope that makes sense😁

I stamped my sentiment. Die cut a butterfly to add to the panel that opens up, added paper roses that i was kindly given many years ago (thank you Chris Lee) which i teamed up with some die cut foliage. Pink gems to finish.
