Lovely cards vampina I like the ribbon used on the oragami shirt card did you mosaic it or is it printed on the pattern?? The mermaid is very sweet too , I would never of thought of doing a fathers day card to my oh from me prob cos he would only leave it to rot on the tv till it curled up Sad

or put it in the bin the day after. When the kids do him cards he keeps them in his keepsake box which is cool xx

Welcome Back

Hi Luelle, nice to talk to you. The ribbon was a printed sticker that came in a pack from a store near where I live.
I also made similar cards for my Dad and my oh Dad, my oh and I have always given each other cards on Mothers and Fathers day. Smile

This one is done with my cricut expression and design studio ( the demo version), pocket full of posies card from 12x12 pad, dawn bibby designs acetate, cc purple butterfly vellum and some freebie foam embellishments from a mag from last year. Finished off with happy birthday peel off from goody bag (think its an anitas outline) and some pink glitter on the word naughty which I distressed to suit the pattern on the cardstock.

Done for a challenge on another forum just for fun downlaoded image printed then matted and layered onto first cream cardstock then blue mirri card, background from paper cellar square piece sized to fit base card then cut diagonally showing pattern on one side and plain colour on other (for best colour match!). Trimmed with ribbon to hide seam and those cute little gems from cc , rub on transfers from a mag and so were the brads.

Tip if you buy the packs of loose gems instead of the self adhesive sheets you can mount them onto sticky dot sheets and then you just treat them like the self adhesive kind cos as you pull them off the sticky dot comes with it and will adhere to your project it is cheaper per 100 gems to do it this way and you choose the size and colour rather than being stuck with odd shaped ones just cos you needed the colour. These loose gems are available at cc for 99p per pack and swear by them.xx
