I Love Gigs and Travelling card - confused hehe? (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

My daughter asked me if I could make a card for her friend who loves gigs and travelling, she even wanted that written on the front hence the weird sentiment haha. She chose this gorgeous image from Saturated Canary. Chloe also asked me to colour her hair just like her friend's who has brown hair with grey ends (ombre style apparently hehe). This doesn't translate well onto digi colouring but its what she wanted.

Thank you Miss Gowns card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

As you may have just read on my last blog post, we are getting ready for our 16 year old daughter Chloe to do her Debutante Ball next week. The ladies where we bought her dress were absolutely wonderful and so helpful that we wanted to send a thank you card. So being a bridal/deb dress shop I knew I needed to use a ball gown image and this one from Saturated Canary I thought was perfect. I don't seem to be able to make dresses appear white by using greys like some very clever crafters out there so I decided to give her a pink dress instead hehe. I added some bling to her hair and shabbied up the card. Sometimes businesses deserve recognition don't they so I'm really hoping they like the personalised card made just for them.

A baby shower card (Stamping Bella image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have finally got a use for this gorgeous stamp from Stamping Bella. I have had it for a while but haven't had a baby shower invitation since haha. The stamp is quite large so I stamped the image then photocopied it onto copic blending paper in a reduced size. Sadly, I can't make the baby shower as it is on the same day as my daughter's deb ball but I thought it would be nice to send a card to my sister-in-law in time for her shower.
