4 year old card

 Hi Everyone, my card today is for my Great Nephew's 4th birthday. I haven't been too well this last 6 weeks, and I was completely without mojo. I don't have "young" stamps, that i could think of. I didn't fancy any of my digital images, so I went down the svg route and this is what happened.

The paper was chosen before using card to match it. I printed and cut it to size and added it to the card. I cut the candles and sentiment on my Silhouette.  I added 4, of course, for his age. The tiny pieces required tweezers to add to the face. 

I used white pen to add the brightness in the eyes and inked around each candle for shadow. I added ink for the cheeks, but the darker shades wouldn't take it!

White pen and clear glitter pen were added to the flames of the candle card pieces. 

I then wrote the name and added a shadow, and cut it. I hope he likes it.

Flower Pig apology!

Hi Everyone, today I have a lovely pig for you. LOL The card was made because, sometimes, I can be a little outspoken when I am feeling down in the dumps and boy have I had the "dumps" this last few weeks.

I felt that I had spoken out of turn one day this week to my lovely SIL, and decided to apologise with a card for her and chose this fabby image by Eastwind. The sentiment is my own. I thought it conveyed that I should have stopped to think before saying anything.

I coloured the pig in PS, however it was VERY pale after printing, so I went over it with my Spectrum Noir markers. I gave the frames around the papers a "stroke" in PS and then saved it all to print and cut with my Cameo.

It seems that she didn't think I had spoken out of turn, told you she was lovely.

Husband's card

Hi Everyone, today, another gorgeous sunny 21C day, I LOVE this weather.
I have my DH birthday card for you today. The papers and elements are from a blog hop in March 2014 at SweetShoppe Designs the kits are all "Sweet Everyday".
The wonderful shoes are by Creat with TLC.
I printed all the elements, layered and 3D'd the tabs and the shoe quote, I 3D glossed the shoes, so they shine like DH's. I think he'll like it, his birthday isn't until next week but he won't see this, as his idea of being a techie, is to play backgammon on an app on the TV. LOL.

EDIT - proud to be featured on TLC
