New Handmade cards for March 2015

Good Afternoon everyone,

Here are some pictures of some of my latest cards that I have been working on for the past few weeks.

I love the Little Meow collection which was brought out at the beginning of January, so I decided to buy some of the A4 decoupage packs, and was surprised as to how many cards I actually got out of  just one of the sheets, with the use of some of my Spellbinders dies and papers that seemed to go well with them.  I worked out that I could possibly get 16 cards out of one pack altogether.

These cards I have made are from the Lili of the Valley range, using some of their cute little toppers and taster paper packs, which are new to their shop.

This floral card was made from one of the Lili of the Valley's floral art pads and paper packs.  I carefully lined up one of my Crea Nest-Lies dies (no. 13) XXL, over the image and ran it through my Cuttlebug.  Then with the next size die upwards, cut one out in some matching paper.  Once mounted I used a Cheery Lynn bow die and found some old K & Co papers that I had and thought the checked paper matched really well with the colour scheme that I had chosen.  Then I finished the card off with a small glittered Kanban sentiment.

This last card is was made using a 5x7 card blank, again with Lili of the Valley paper and art pad, this time using a Spellbinders Card Creator die Elegant Labels 4, which I lined up over the art pad.  The corner die is Cheery Lynn, and the bow die is also Cheery Lynn.

All of these cards are going to a St. Oswald's Hospice shop, where I take a bundle of handmade cards each month.  Thank you for taking the time to have a look at them. Jackie x
