made this for my lovely husband, gorgeous papers from papermilldirect and the die are tonic verso which sell themselves don't they

This card was for the February card swap on the M.C.S forum the theme being monotone or monochrome. the background is from my stencil studio cd rom, the font is from all about alphabets the faux ribbon (with real ribbon insert )is also from my stencil studio. I then made up some black paper clay from Martha Stewart and made some butterflies and a bow. To finish it off although it doesn't show very well I added some glitter using a zig wink of stella pen in clear glitter which is lovely.

Very Happy with this card (hope Michelle was lol) I made this to compliment their wedding invites I did for them. the large inset die is spellbinders and the flower sprig is tattered lace. the embossing folder is crafters companion. I used my letraset foiling machine on the font. Their wedding was last Saturday and although the weather was awful as we were in one place for the whole day it didn't spoil it at all. Congratulations to my life long friend Michelle and her new husband Gordon xxx

Now I know it's late but I really like this card I made for my parents so wanted to include it. The round die  tonic verso, the word is tonic, the wreath die is spellbinders the back ground patterned paper and sentiment are from my paper stash.

This I did for the M.C.S forum January card swap the theme was ribbons and lace, the cd rom I used was all about lace from the 6th Anniversary collection. I just added some brads, ribbon and glitter spray from my crafty stash

these are two fiftieth birthday cards I used crafters companion A4 embossing folders, tonic verso and lily die plus the lily papers. I printed the wording out and foiled it with my letraset hot foil impressions machine (remembering to print on my laser printer)

a card for my mother-in-law the die is spellbinders gold, the centre decoration I bought as part of a set from a little gift shop, the little snowflake printed shapes are some cheap decorations from tesco everything else I  have had in my stash for quite a while. I used 2 card bases to make an easel then used my circle cutter to cut the centre out then added a foam wreath base then embellished.

this is from the new tonic verso heart and square dies sets the font die is Robert Adams, the holly is actually two die sets mcs and (sorry it has slipped my mind I will update when I remember). I used 4 of the verso dies into the card then backed with mirri. simple but so affective.
May I take this opportunity to wish you all wherever you are
A Very Merry Christmas and a Peaceful and Happy New Year xxx

This is for my daughter and son-in-law enjoyed making this one spellbinder edge and poinsettia die. The heart is a little wooden decoration

These are for my grandchildren, I printed off  some snowman and Father Christmas decoupage from crafters companion The snow globes are from M.C.S

 

Added some bakers twine to these for the Crafter's Companion blog, I did actually think something was missing but thought ribbon would be too much so actually think the twine works really well
