A Few cards

Hi there friends, I am back with a few quick cards I made recently, one stamped using an Altenew stamp and the other two are digital again. One was a sympathy card for my son-in-laws grandfather who died at the grand old age of 98, what a lovely man he was too.

My second card was for neighbours who just had their first baby aww, what a cutie she is too. The third one is for our nephew who is 21 on Sunday.

Will add pics of our recent holiday to Cornwall as promised later so the post isn't too long. Back with more cards soon too ;)

 

I am currently very busy printing lots of  'magical' pages and sayings to go with our 'magical/fairy' theme for the grandchildren at our family party soon. I decided to make a 'magical' themed treasure hunt this time, (there is often a treasure hunt!). I do make work for myself though don't I lol. Menu all sorted at least now too.

 

I wrote a story for them all a while ago (using their names which they all found hilarious) and have added another new story along the same theme. I bought a set of cars and two sweet unicorns as presents and I have clevery 'inserted' them into my story he he. So that's what the treasure hunt present will be too shhh! Written all clues now and printed A4 magical pages which I have all over the house now lol..... they will love it I am hoping. Phew and now for a rest!

I will try and take pics of the odd thing or two I made. I am loving am obsessed with the large lanterns just now (so much scope to add themes to them, Easter/Christmas etc.) and I made a fairy light jar to go on the wall also. Enjoy your weekend whatever you have planned, I will be cooking (far too much again..I tend to cook for an army lol!) and also treasure hunting too...so exciting!! ;)

Leaves Sympathy card

Good morning friends, just popping by to  show you another card I made for the  'Less is More' challenge.     The theme is the 'Kissing Technique' , see my last post for more details. I went for green this time.     I used a leaf stamp and also a tree stamp. I think the tree stamp looks like veins  in the leaves ;)     Enjoy your Sunday ;)      

Sorry bit bright, had to put light on as it was so dark.

Green Ombre Sympathy card

Good afternoon friends, such a warm sunny day here too. I hope it will be a nice October.


Just stopping by to show you this sympathy  card. Sadly I have had to make far too many of these lately.

I have heard of five deaths in the last two  weeks ! First my elderly neighbour lost her  dear husband. Then a good crafting friend lost her lovely husband.      Then my SIL lost a close friend in an  accident. My DIL lost her granddad. Then  a couple of days ago my closest oldest  friend lost her husband very suddenly.     I hope that is all for now, my heart goes out to all their poor relatives & friends.

Anyway come and  see my card, it seems to be my 'go to' card now for sympathy cards. I find black too harsh and depressing.     I hope the recipients liked them too and  found comfort in the wording. I always try and say something uplifting....... and can only hope it helps a little. I used the green ombre colour on the  insert too btw.
