April 8th #3

Here's the last of my April 8th birthday card.  This one is for my stepson's partner - an avid runner - both on her own and with her gorgeous dog, Doug.  She is a vet - and is who we trust our Molly with as she has known her all her life. It makes going to the vets an enjoyable experience for her as she gets to see Hannah - which is always fun (except when there are injections involved)!

This is another Hunkydory Pick and Mix topper - this one is called Eat, Sleep, Run, Repeat. I just love the colour combination. 

For the matts and layers, I used silver matt mirror card, orange Core'dinations and teal card from Papermill.  

The letters are cut with Diamond Block Alpha, and I used one of my precious Hobby House orange flowers with a teal hessian one behind (can't for the life of me remember where it came from).

Take care and stay safe.

April 8th #2

Yesterday, I shared the first of my three cards for my April 8th family birthdays - my grandson's first birthday card!

Today I am sharing my niece's card- who was sweet 16. A very difficult time for her, as she is one of that group for whom her GCSE's will never be sat, and who will be hoping that the work she has done in her mocks and her coursework will get her the grades she wants. 

This is a 7x7 card using Hunkydory Pick and Mix - Girl Boss topper. It's pink - which is a colour she is rather partial too - and I like the message on there too.

The background is a combination of silver mirror card, some very old Create and Craft Textured Card (which isn't texture - just looks it), Crafter's Companion Matt Black card, and the pink is from Hunkydory's Floral Delight Card Block.

The letters are cut using Crafter's Companion Kinetic Alphabet, and the numbers using Diamond Press Block Alpha.  And as ever, it's all finished with ribbons and pearls.

Take care and stay safe,
