Animals and birds


Yay, I just reached 300 followers. Thank you and welcome to my new followers, hope to see you coming back here often.

The Friday before last the lovely Paula at Pollycraft gave away 2 Friday freebies and has a DT call. You must use one of the images. I chose to use Cody last week and was very pleased to find my card chosen as one of the Allsorts top 5 on Saturday. I love the other image too so here is my card made using this cute duck and cake. I made it a real girly card with the colours. I added some doodling and shimmer chalk to the image and some little beads to the cake to look like hundreds and thousands. Papers are Honey and Hugs. Some ribbon, bows and Sizzix cut balloons from glitter card and a ticket sentiment complete the design.

The second card is another Easter card as I have sold all the other ones I made. Coco is a Digistamp Boutique image. I used an assortment of papers and flowers for this one and added sparkle with a Sakura goldstar pen and butterflies.

If you like these sentiment tickets you can buy them at Alissa's Paper Town. Many of you will know that Lisa is in a wheelchair and is raising money for 2 hip replacements. One of the ways in which she is doing this is by adding more items to her online shop so pop over for a visit.
