Anniversary and a 100th Birthday card

Hi everyone, more cards from me again. I have an Anniversary
  card I made for my  BIL and SIL recently and forgot to post.
 
 
I made a necklace and matching earrings which went down 
very well with my SIL I am happy to report.
 
 
 She was even wearing this very shade of denim blue when
  she opened it . As they were visiting us on holiday at the time,
she got to wear it that very day too.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hand made flower
 
 
 
 
Sorry not a great photo!
 
 
 
 
 
Also a 100th Birthday one I made for my lovely daughter-in-law's
Granddad to take back to Taiwan with her for him. 
 
 
 
 
Wow 100 years old ! and until recently he was walking up mountains
all the time with family. He is also a vegetarian like us, that
gives me hope ;)
 
 
 
It took me  well over 2 hrs to try and get the right Mandarin wording /image etc.
right for his card. In the end I had to hand write the sentiment.
 
 
 
 
It says Happy Birthday Granddad in Mandarin.
 
 
 
 
I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week, the weather is more
 Spring like for us at last now & warmer too.

Happy Easter card

Hi everyone, just popping by to show you my second
card for 'Less is More' this week. The theme this time
 is 'YELLOW and GREEN'
 
 
Also entering this in the DigiStamp Boutique 'March customer' competition.
 
 
 
 
Happy Easter, Spring, Yellow, Green
 
 
 
 
I used   DigiStamp Boutique images  and a computerized sentiment.
Images coloured using Promarkers, I added some glamour dust to the
daisies.
 
 
The ribbon is quite old and no idea where it is from now sorry.
Will spare you how long it took to get it looking just right too...but you
will all understand I am sure :)
 
 
 
 
I seem to have a LOT of new craft items piling up and not a card 
made with them ( red face). I am hoping to do more cards soon
and show you some of the lovely goodies I have been tempted
to buy lately.Note to self......stop buying 'stuff' !!
 
 
 
ps. Sunny day here today and I had a sudden urge to do some
 Spring cleaning. Now my front door, all my sunlounge window
surrounds and my main front window and sills are gleaming.
Must do the side ones next then all the windows, happy days!
 
 
 
 
We have two large sunlounges front and back of the house , so
lots of cleaning....large windows esp.grrrr.But my lovely OH has
 said he will do the back ones....result !
