February cards.

I managed to make quite a few cards in February, there were a number of family birthdays, and Kaaren needed quite a few cards made for a craft show she was attending this weekend in Sydney.

The first one below was for my sisters 60th Birthday.

The dies I used were the Marianne Creatables Star XL and  Anja's Vintage Frame.

Flowers were made from the Cheery Lynn Gardenia Strip

leaves - Sue Wilson Laurel leaves and Faux Quilled Leaves

This was a card for my youngest brother, I created the background with some distress inks and water

The bird is from Tim Holtz Crazy Birds stamp Set.

Happy Birthday is Spellbinders Sentiments 3

Flowers Cheery Lynn Chrysanthemum

For this very simple card I have used the feather stencil from the Bo Bunny Whimsy Stencil set, stenciling the feathers with ink.
I used one of the dies from the SW Australian Background to emboss the rectangle, the Happy Birthday is Spellbinders Sentiments 3.
A few random placed dots with Liquid pearls and some crystal adhesive gemstones coloured black with a marker.

This time I used molding paste on black card with the Bo Bunny feather stencil then added some glittery colour, and hand cut them out.
Sue Wilson Australian Background pieces also used.

I created the background on this card with the Bo Bunny Whimsy Stencil set, I first inked it with one pink ink rotated the stencil then added another pink ink.
