More cards for MEN!

Here are some more cards i have made for the men in our lives. The first one is a made using a free design sheet...the message is a computerised one.

Second card is a digital download, i used promarkers to colour the glass and a bit of glamour dust added to the edges and also the froth on the top. The card itself was a Kanban card that i have had for ages, the message was computerised with a few pieces of candy added to the sides from Craftwork cards.

Thanks for looking

New style for me!

Hi everybody, hope your all having a lovely weekend. I have entered a challenge on the craftsreunited forum, we had to follow a sketch but the central theme was a message instead of a pic as the main image.

This is the card i came up with after lots and lots of thinking as we had to use three papers and three round the image !!! I used a new Embossing folder strip for the bottom strip from Darice its called borders (Lace) three set. i bought three of these for £12 as a deal at the Harrogate craft show. The side lace strip is a MS edge punch. I kept to plain coloured card/ paper instead of patterned as i thought it was more classy.
