Some Boy Cards

Hello again, I've a few boy cards to share with you this time.


 This horse is from Beccy's Place. I coloured it with my pens after cutting it out on the Robo. I also cue the mat and used some scraps of leather style paper behind the mat. I used my Vera Mark pen to go over the pole and the metal work on the tack which I embossed with gold embossing powder.


 I found this fab T shirt card on Shirley's website as a freebie. She is so generous to share these files with us all. I cut this from black card, the trim from whit and and a scrap of embossed white behind the star.



 After making the black card I decided to do a green one as well. I had coloured the puppy a while ago but hadn't made him into a card. I cut him out and popped him on the front of the T shirt. The trim is scarp white coloured with Promarker.

The is a close up of the puppy I love his cheeky face. 

I've seen these box cards all over the place lately and decided to have a go as well. I did 'cheat' and got the Robo to cut it all and then I just stuck it all together but I really like the effect and can see a few more like this being made. 

This last one is a simple birthday card. I cut the little robot out and the balloons and just stuck them together.

Not huge amounts of colouring or any fancy cards this time but sometimes for boy cards less is more. I am entering these cards in the following challenges:

Top Tip Tuesday - Metal-embossing powder
Tiddly Inks - Birthday
Fab n Funky - Boys
Crafting For All Seasons - No Backing Papers

A Mother's Day Card

 Good Morning, I just thought I would share the card I've made for my Husband to give his Mum for Mother's Day. It's not your usual flowers and things but I hope she will like it.


The image is from Polka Doodles and cut out of the Craft Robo. I coloured her with my Spectrum Noir pens. I added glitter to the frill on her dress, wings and hat. I coloured some thicker white ribbon I had bought to go through the ribbon sliders using the same pens as her dress. I have used some papers I bought at a  local craft show some time ago so no idea which brand they may be. 
I used some Coredinations card stock with the Krft backing through an embossing folder I got from a magazine. I used my Martha Stewart punch around the page on some white card stock created my own glitter card stock with some double sided tape. I was covered in the stuff for days afterwards, thankfully it's one of my favourite colours. Another layer of paper and done.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Oh La La - Special Lady
Lexi's Creatins - Punches or dies
Aurora Wings - Anything goes
Papertake Weekly - For Mum
Tuesday Throwndown - Tic Tac Toe- Bling Digi image Ribbon
