Birthday Candles

Well I have just come back from a gorgeous birthday dinner for my beautiful niece Molly Comish who is turning 14 tomorrow. I can't believe how quickly she is growing up, both herself and Hannah looked so adult tonight that it took my breath away.

So, now that I am too full to move I thought it might be a good time and relevant to the evening I have just had to do a quick post with a couple of Birthday cards made from the Strictly Party Ultimate Pack from Docrafts. I adore this range as the papers, toppers and decoupage are beautiful and the cards just seem to flow out of me when I sit down to work with them. Anyone who comes to my demos knows that I rave about the Ultimate Packs in any of the ranges as they are just so stuffed with goodies that they have to, have to, have to...........be bought :)

 

I hope all had a good evening too.

Happy Crafting everyone :)

Birthday Ripple

I totally love this card. Its made with papers form the Docrafts Birthday range and finished off with a little Forever Friends Topper. The paper is just folded and then laid down onto double sided tape placed on the card and the frame is fitted over it and attached with 3D foam.

This was a fantastic idea from Amazing Paper Grace Blog her blog is stunning. She is a completely different crafter from me so I just adapted the idea to my style of card. There are some great tutorials on her blog and its worth grabbing a coffee and having a look around. . I have tried to find the original link for her tutorial on this type of card and have not been able to find it, so I have emailed her and when I get it I will link it in this post.

Have a great weekend everyone and Happy Crafting.
