Birthday card

A birthday card for a friend:


Materials
Kraft cardstock
Martha Stewart Arch Lattice edge punch
Alphabet dies (unbranded)
Fancy Pants product packaging
Fabric patch

There's a bit of a story to this one... it's a 70th birthday card for a fellow member of my rural fire brigade.  The photo is a 1947 Dodge (friend born in 1947 and loves trucks) and the backing fabric is from an old pair of fire fighting overalls.

I also made a matching envelope:


Materials
7Gypsies Gypsy Market - Herne patterned paper

I'm sharing my card at:

Cyber cropping at the Scrap Boutique

It's cyber crop weekend, celebrating the 10th birthday of the Scrap Boutique.  This is my take on the first challenge, using the colours of the Boutique:



Materials
DCWV Peri & Peach patterned papers & journal card
Prima Lola flowers
Prima Penelope flowers
Merci flair button

The beautiful rose gold is tricky to photograph, but when it catches the light it's SO pretty!

Exploring back roads

This is another layout for my Cairns travel album:


Materials
Basic Grey Serenade - Peacock patterned paper
DCWV Peri & Peach patterned paper
Fancy Pants Attwell flair
Sunshine in my Soul font by Kimberly Geswein

I'm sharing my page at:
Simon Says Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday ~ Challenge #292 - #293
* More Than Words ~ Explore/Arrows


I like to explore back roads on my travels.  I only used one arrow, but it's the only embellishment on the page and I think it stands out as a feature.
