Hello,

Today's card features three of the Darling Buds images from polka doodles.

Parents Cards

Hello,

The title of this post may be a little confusing but let me explain. Last week I had a couple of occasions, fathers day , my dogs second birthday and my mum's birthday.

The two cards here are what I made for them.

My first card is my mum's birthday card. Her favourite cards are measles so I made this one using a cute whimsy penguin image, coloured with spectrum noirs and Promarkers. I thought this one went perfectly.

I used Nitwit collections Cherish papers, matted on white. I die cut the border along the top, printed a sentiment and verse and added flowers, ribbon, lace and pearls.

Hello,

At the moment, this is my favourite fold of card. I'm not sure what it is called, but its my favourite!

For this card, I used one of the polka doodles little dudes, coloured with spectrum noirs.

As you like it: favourite card base or fold

I think this is one of my favourites because compared to my usual fussy and fancy style, I can make this quite simple and only use two papers rather than four or five. Plus I think it highlights the image nicely.
