Diesel's Basketball Birthday card

Hi Crafty Friends,

I made this card for one of my son's friend who loves basketball. I googled for basketball images, printed it out and then used a circle die to cut it out. I doodled "bouncing" marks. I used a Batman style font for the sentiment.

Make your own magic unicorn card (The Greeting Farm image)

Hi crafty friends,

I just love unicorns and these unicorns from The Greeting Farm are just some of the sweetest going around I think. I coloured it with my Copics using pink shades then just added a little Y11 for the hair highlights and on the body and I feel like it looks like it has a bit of a glow, I wish I had added some yellow "sun" somewhere in the clouds, I think that would've looked great. Next time hey hehe? I used the lovely Lawn Fawn stitched cloud borders and I think the plaid paper is also Lawn Fawn. I added some silver stars that I've had in my stash for about 10 years lol, I'm happy I was able to use them on this card.

Let's Celebrate - Masked Fairy card (Faery Ink Designs image)

Hi crafty friends,

How lovely is this beautiful image from Faery Ink Designs? They were giving it away free (may still be doing so, click on their name to find out more). I used a background paper from The Paper Shelter and added her (in black & white) to the background before printing it (using a PNG format). I added some Wink of Stella and also some Glossy Accents to her wings. I made the background patterned papers with a new stencil and some Distress Oxide Inks. 

My flourish is from Flourish with a Bling - which is my company that is sadly closing down very soon - great news is that we're selling everything off as cheap as it can get! Some items are only $1! This flourish is called the Luke flourish, we have very unique items that we designed ourselves so I hope you'll go check the store out, we ship worldwide.
