Happy Belated Third Anniversary Debbs and Pat.

Happy Third Anniversary Debbs and Pat...  I'm a bit late with this as Mr Jinx had another day at the Vets Hospital and then another visit two days later and he has another one on Friday too.  Same problem, he's having trouble 'going' again, so...  anniversary card got put on hold and then I didn't really like it. So I scrapped that and started again! Scrapped that?? Hmmm!? 'How can I use up all these scraps I have left over from making Lady Pam's card?'  thought me. A quick look on You Tube and Sam Calcott was using the same papers  I had, using up the scaps, so! Problem solved! And this is the result.

It's a little bit too busy I think and before the day's out, if nothing else happens to distract me, it might get changed again!  All the papers you can see are from Dovecraft, (now CraftLabel) I bought the whole bundle of everything that matched. So all the papers, the 3D topper, the peg, the pearltopped flowers, the gem,both the butterflies and the ribbon (it's there, hiding!) and much more, came from the Butterfly Kisses bundle.  The Happy Anniversary sentiment was a gold peel off sticker, which I coloured silver. I made an envelope to match using the paper you can just see inside and to the right of the card.  This card was made from scraps adhered to purple mirror card and then a pearl 5x7 card. So have a look at Sam's video where she very quickly puts together ten cards!! to my one! (Ok, it's on fast speed most of the time, but it's still impressive!) I rather like the circle one she did ... no, the hexagon! Maybe I'll try them another day. Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Birthday Lady Pam! With a Fold Back Pop-up card!

 It may not appear that I'm crafting, but by the state of my crafty room, you'd know I'd been very busy, if not productive! We had two birthdays over last weekend, so of course I made two cards, I still haven't finished hubby's to the way I want it yet. It was to go with the bench card i made him...I'll post them later!  Anyway, here's the card I made for Lady Pam's 90th birthday. I used the Butterfly Kisses bundle, (that included papers, butterflies, buttons gems, pegs, resin flowers, ribbons, die cuts, stickers...you name it, it was there! plus a load of other accessories that I bought a few weeks back from Craft?thingy??? It used to be Dovecraft/Trimcraft, I'll change that bit later! so I was really spoilt for choice!

 I had to lie the card down to show off the pop out bit where I'd added '90'  I did all the folding and cutting first. It was to make a 7x5 card only I was listening to Sam and scored to make a 5x5 card... and missed the correction. I thought it a bit odd! and it took me a few moments to realise I wasn't going to fit backing papers for a 7x5 card onto a 5x5 one!  (It's corrected on You Tube now)  Sam embossed some pretty coloured card for the front, but I rather liked the purple mirror card instead. 

Happy Birthday, and PAM diecuts are from The Works

This is the back, using some more Butterfly kisses papers. The 'Have a Lovely Day' die cut was from the Butterfly Kisses bundle and a couple more pictures of the front. I couldn't quite get the lighting right.

Deciding what to make was the hardest as I've been watching Sam Calcott for ages now and every card I see, I want to make! (except the hand bags....I'm not into hand bags, but the boxes are very useful!) 

I finished off, covering the rose in front with Glossy Accents and a few more sequin butterflies inside, added later and not seen here.

 Go HERE  for the 'Fold Back Pop-Up Card' and watch Sam with her Nan making this card! It is Very easy!  #foldbackpopupcard #zfoldpopupcards #funfoldcards Thanks for stopping by! Hope to later enter some...
