O for Orange

This is s small square card blank from Craft UK.The orange pearlescent card is from Payper Box and the backing paper is from the First Editions paper pad 'Hideaway'. The tulips digi is from Sweet 'n' Sassy and I coloured it with Promarkers before cutting with the Spellbinders oval nestie and then matting on the orange scalloped nestie. I used a Spellbinders die to cut four corners to complete the design. Very simple but quite attractive.

I made this card yesterday but I've just managed to get the photo taken this morning. I've used a Craft UK card blank again - gone are the days when I used to score and make my own! It's an 8x 8 square and the backing paper is from a First Editions pad called Hideaway. The red card is from Papermill. The image is another that I won from Sweet 'n' Sassy and the face on this cat is priceless! I coloured it with Promarkers and after cutting with my Spellbinders oval nestie I used Distress Ink in Mustard Seed round the edges. I matted it on to the scalloped nestie in yellow card frorm Papermill and then matted that on to another grand oval nestie in red. I tucked an Ironworks motif under the image and a strip of Joanna Sheen's red organza ribbon is across the bottom. I then went the whole hog and cut some Whimsy bunting and Cuttlebug balloons. I used Creative Expressions baker's twine for the strings on balloons and bunting.

I won this digi image from Sweet 'n' Sassy and had to use it because he's so cute. I used a small square card blank from Craft UK. I've had the backing paper for ages and I believe it's from Victoria and Albert. The black card is from Papermill. After I'd matted the paper to the black card I set it at an angle across the card blank. I coloured the image with my Promarkers and used a Sakura stardust pen for his eyes and his disc. My Spellbinders nesties came into use again. One piece of Blackjack Card Candi was added to the bottom corner.
