Happy 50th...

A friends 50th Birthday was recently so a card was needed, in fact I think I may be doing a lot more of these sorts of cards over the next few years lol.

This card needed a motorcycle, not just any motorcycle - but a Harley!
These bikes are just gorgeous to ride on, I haven't been on one too often but I love it when I have had the opportunity.


Love this glimmery designer papers, its from a DCWV insta stack, they are such cute paper stacks in a variety of colours.


TIP: I used a silver sharpie that you can pick up from an art/craft store, I Used that
to colour in the motorcycle then highlighted the metal with the white signo gel pen.




Stamp:  Motorcycle (retired Stampin' Up!)
Papers: DCWV insta stack
Cardstock: Whisper white and Basic Black (Stampin' Up!)
Ink: Black Stazon
Pen: Silver (sharpie), white gel pen
Dies: Technique Tuesday Happy Birthday, Numbers (SU)

L's and P's

In my part of the world being South Australia, we have "L" plates in yellow and black, and "P" plates in red and white.

I have a niece who is a couple of weeks shy of getting her learners permit (eek) so thought this weeks mojo challenge sketch was super perfect for a card idea for in readiness for her getting her license.






I love how they turned out and that they are a sort of matching pair for her to keep.
Now to just get over the fact that she will be old enough to drive :(  and I should be right lol.


Have a great week everyone.

Christening...

I was asked recently to make a special Christening card for a soon to be Godmother.

Something special, so pink was definitely in order for the little girl being Christened.



and a close up of all the pretty details:

I don't make too many of these cards so was a novelty to create one.
The stamp set is one from Stampin' Up!
The papers, embossing folders and ribbon is also Stampin' Up!
The fancy die cut shapes are nestabilities.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone.
