Purple, green and blue thank you card

Hi Crafty Friends,

I've had some papers forever and not known quite how to create with them. Lately I've been creating strips of the papers and adhering them to a scrap piece of paper then faux stitching on the joins. I love how these turn out. Let me know if anyone wants me to take photos of the process I do as it's really simple but I think it looks really effective, hopefully you think so too.

Congratulations on your baby boy (Little Miss Muffet image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's my first of 5 cards to show tonight, I've been on holidays this past week or so and I think it shows lol, I can't stop making cards when I'm home and not doing housework! This card I created for a magazine commission, I created the background paper with a lime green copic marker, just roughly making lines across the paper. The die cut green frae was coloured the same way so that all the papers and image were the same colour. The image is from Little Miss Muffet but I haven't added the link like I usually do as the website wasn't up.

Celebrating Chloe passing her driving test card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi crafty friends,

This is my last card for today, I hope you've enjoyed seeing all the different cards I've been creating recently.

I made this card ready for my daughter Chloe who's going for her driver's licence tomorrow, fingers crossed she gets it as she just bought a car last week so it's sitting here ready to be driven. It'll be so much easier for me and hubby too, she works part-time at Subway in the evenings and we normally pick her up, the weather is just starting to cool down so it's perfect timing!

The girl is from Saturated Canary, sadly it's no longer available but if you like Krista's images you can find some at Make it Crafty.

Strawberry Shortcake Birthday card

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have another girly card to show you and this one was made using an old free colouring book image of Strawberry Shortcake. When I first started I printed out lots of colouring book images and I've decided to slowly start colouring them up as I chose really cute ones like this, isn't she sweet?
