50th Wedding Anniversary card for my in-laws

Hi crafty friends,

I hope you all had a great Easter if you celebrate the holiday.

My in-laws just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary so I made this card for them. We recently bought a new letterbox which came with lots of large black numbers to put on the front, as soon as I saw these black stickers I thought they'd be perfect for cards so I added them to my stash.

Celebrating Chloe passing her driving test card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi crafty friends,

This is my last card for today, I hope you've enjoyed seeing all the different cards I've been creating recently.

I made this card ready for my daughter Chloe who's going for her driver's licence tomorrow, fingers crossed she gets it as she just bought a car last week so it's sitting here ready to be driven. It'll be so much easier for me and hubby too, she works part-time at Subway in the evenings and we normally pick her up, the weather is just starting to cool down so it's perfect timing!

The girl is from Saturated Canary, sadly it's no longer available but if you like Krista's images you can find some at Make it Crafty.

Purple Easter Girl card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi crafty friends,

Happy Easter for this weekend everyone! This card's dedicated to all my lovely followers.

I coloured up a beautiful girl from Saturated Canary, sadly it's no longer available but if you like Krista's images you can find some at Make it Crafty.

I dotted white Nuvo drops onto one set of background dots then while it was still wet I added purple glitter. Once they were completely dry I added more white Nuvo drops to another set of the background dots but left the white. I forgot to sweep off the extra glitter before taking this photo, oops lol!
