Birthday card for Hubby

Don't we all enjoy making cards for the men in our lives NOT!....lol.  I've tried alsorts this week for a card for my hubby's birthday on Saturday, here's the finished result.]


I used a decoupaged image and BP from the 'Cards for Men 4' CD from Debbi Moore.  This sounds terrible, I work for Debbi and very rarely use her CD's, just for the simple reason I'm not a CD crafter, I love to stamp and colour.  Yet I buy most of her CD's as they come out..... lol.

Sherri Baldy 3D DT Call

There is a DT call for Sherri Baldy 3D Besties.  These sheets are brand new and will be released very soon.  I love Sherri's digi Besties, so thought I'd apply for this new DT.
Here's my card.



These images are lovely and I don't think they really need many embellishments, I like the image to be the focal point of the card and not hidden by lots of flowers etc.

Just Inklined


This image is called Corner Poppy and is available to buy and download straight away from Just Inklined.
I coloured the image with Distress Ink Markers, embossed the background and added just a little bit of distress ink to take the 'whiteness' off.  I wish I could find a watercolour pad where the papers were actually white and not cream.  I love the one I use now, just the colour spoils it for me.
