Winter Girl's Birthday Card (Bugaboo image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have loved reading the lovely comments you leave me and I love to hear when you buy an image because you have seen it on one of my cards, that always makes me so happy, just wanted you to know.

This little cutie is by Bugaboo. I added some die cut snowflakes, ribbon & my snowdrop specialty (some clear glue and clear fine glitter). Oh dear, I have just realised I have mistaken her ear for part of her hat hehe, my bad, will fix that.

Paul's CAS Birthday Card (Kenny K image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have created this card for my sister's partner using an image from Kenny K. I love this image as it suits so many males I know haha (they all love a beer don't they?). Although we're in Oz, he supports the USA's Green Bay Packers so I looked up their colours hence the colour combo (gosh I hope I got it right, anyone know hehe?) I think he'll appreciate that I went to the effort of doing it in his favourite teams colours if they're right.

How's this for a sweet image, it can be found at Drawn with Character. I used a funky little font for the sentiment and added some FWAB silver rhinestones (having a 50% off sale, see below).

Bright and Crisp Birthday Girl Card (The Greeting Farm image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Wow, I can't believe I've posted 6 cards tonight! That's a record for me I think. Well, this is the last one and I really like how this card turned out. I'm not really a clean and crisp kind of crafter so this is about as clean and simple as I get hehe. I have used a gorgeously girly image from The Greeting Farm, I have created cards with her a few times in the past but not for quite some time so thought she was due for another showing. She is a rubber stamp.

Make a Wish Monster card (Bugaboo image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

This could be a girl's card but I think it totally rocks as a boy's card. I love using Bugaboo images and this one is no exception, how cute are these little monsters, they're ready to party alright! I cut out the sentiment and foam taped it to give it depth.

Pirate Boy card (DigiStamp Boutique image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Have you seen my other boyish cards tonight? This one is my 3rd, very unusual for me I know. One of my fave digi shops for boys images has got to be DigiStamp Boutique and that is exactly where this one came from, how cute is he? I have used this image before but with pirate papers and dark colours so I have it under this one so you can see the difference. I think he looks cute both ways. I thought this image was perfect to go with the waves on the Bo Bunny papers so once I had coloured the image it was a pretty easy card to create.

Audrey Hepburn Style Girly Birthday Card (All Dressed Up image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's my first girly card of the night and I have used a stunning image from All Dressed Up. She is perfect for so many girly cards isn't she? So elegant she reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. I have used a rectangular card for a change, only thing is it is difficult to add to challenges as the blogs like square cards. I used a gorgeous small Maddison red flower from FWAB who are having a 50% off everything sale this month (see below for more details).
