Engagement Card and Present

Here is the card I made for our friends' engagement recently. The base card is Kraft stamped with Versamark and the Baroque Motifs swirl image as well as a Chit Chat rub-on. The DSP is Bella Bleu and the silver cord is retired SU product. Quite a simple card but it looks elegant (in my opinion anyway).

I'm sorry that this is on the side but I'm having technical difficulties since we got our new computer. This is the candle I decorated for our friends, I used the Together Forever stamp set, the retired silver cord and some beads from the Pretties Kit.

Baroque Christmas

Here's another Christmas card for you, only 23 days to go!!! I've used the Baroque Motifs stamp set (pg. 98) for this one. Many non-Christmas sets can be used to make Christmas cards with the right colour combination and sentiment. I've used In Colors for this card, I just love how well the In Colors go together. The base card is Purely Pomegranate and the layers are Wild Wasabi and River Rock. On the base card, I've stamped the large swirly image in Purely Pomegranate ink in the corners. The River Rock piece has been stamped with the large swirly image in Wild Wasabi and then the small flower image has been stamped in Purely Pomegranate. The greeting is from Occasional Greetings (pg. 121), a must have set, and is stamped in Purely Pomegranate. The Wild Wasabi layer has been paper pierced and the edges distressed. The River Rock edges have also been distressed.

I hope you like it! Thanks to Marelle (I think) for the original design.
