Jen's Birthday Bear Card (Milton Bear Stamps image)

Hi crafty friends,

I made this card for my sister's Birthday as she loves creating cards with little animals on them. Once she opened the card and loved the little bear I then gave her the stamp all wrapped up as an extra little gift as I don't often use real stamps anymore so she was going to waste. I loved using her one last time though and I know if I ever want to create a card with this bear again I can have a lend hehe. I think the bear is a Milton Bear Stamps brand.

Skinny Dad's BBQ card (Bugaboo image)

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all well and enjoying some sunshine. We just had Father's Day over here so I have a Dad card to show you today. My dad is tall and slim and loves a BBQ (we're Aussies) so this suited him to a T!! Is it T or tea hehe, while typing it I realised I'm really not sure. If you're from other countries you probably think I have terrible spelling but here in Oz we spell things differently hehe - like realise, colour, centre etc.

Anyway I digressed lol back to my card and I used an image from Bugaboo and the fence is from Flourish with a Bling. I used chipboard banners from Scrapmatts and covered them with patterned paper and added the lettering.  This is a pretty CAS card for me but I'm not sure my dad would like it too fussy.

Love N Hugs to Tracy (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I hope you're enjoying your weekend (and long weekend in England I understand?) Speaking of England, that's where this card is going this week as it's my girlfriend's Birthday coming up. I wanted to create a shabby look but didn't want to add too many embellishments as it's cheaper to send if it's flatter. I used a gorgeous image from Saturated Canary which I have used before (see below).
