Bright and cheerful birthday card

Hello
Today's card is a bright happy birthday card which I am entering in the weekly Freshly Made Sketches challenge at  freshlymadesketches.blogspot.co.uk

I know it is not yet summer, but the occasional sunny days we have had recently gave me the inspiration for this card

Hope you like it

All for now

Bright card combining the Crazy Dog and Mixed Media dies

Hi

I kept this card quite simple, just using two dies from Sizzix designed by Tim Holtz: the splat from Tim's Mixed Media dies and a Crazy dog which I coloured with Promarkers  then accented with Glossy Accents.


I cut the sentiment out twice, once in black then in a multi coloured card (which I created with Promarkers) then glued them on top of each other, then to the card, before coating with Glossy Accents.

I drew the border freehand then coloured in matching colours.

All for now

Clean and Simple Thank you card

Hi

Just a quick visit today to show you a card which I entered into the weekly challenge on the Freshly made Sketches blog.

It is worth visiting the blog as there is a varied selection of entries and I am sure everyone will find inspiration from at least one entry.






Hope you like it, all for now

Crazy Dogs by Tim Holtz- Mirror image

Hi

As you may have seen, I have found a way to produce a mirror image of these stamps quite easily.

So it seemed appropriate to make a card using a dog looking at himself/herself in a mirror


The method I used to give the mirror image is in my post dated 26 January.

Hope you like it

Tim Holtz crazy dogs stamps and dies

Hello

I found a random piece of card in my stash that I  wanted to use.   So I used it to stamp a crazy dog onto (with Stampers Anonymous crazy dog stamps), then cut it out with the matching Sizzix die- I finished with a sentiment from Tattered Lace. I think the dog looks like a dalmatian,  do you?



This card was very easy to make, the hardest thing was selecting the best colour to contrast with the black and white patterned papers.

Hope you like it

Valentine/Anniversary card using Tim Holtz Mixed Media dies by Sizzix

Hi
Today I want to share a card I made for my husband for our anniversary which is in a few days.  It could easily be a valentine card.


I kept the design quite simple, just letting the dies do all the work.

The dies were all Tim Holtz Sizzix dies.

All for now
