Betty Boop Inspired Card

My Dad's partner asked me to make a card for her (buxom!) best friend who loves Betty Boop. I've seen this Kenny K image used on other blogs and thought it would be ideal so have coloured it to look like the friend. I've used a Cover-a-Card stamps to create the background then scored diagonally to make a luxurious quilt effect. The flowers are handmade using alternating layers of coloured cardstock cut with the Tattered Florals die from Tim Holtz and then sprayed with water before scrunching. The card candy, lace and pearl brads were all coloured with ProMarkers to match.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

• Craft Your Days Away - Challenge 28, Make Your Own Flowers
• Bearly Mine - Challenge 18, Flowers Flowers Flowers
• Craft Your Passion - Challenge 74, Anything Goes With Flowers
• Sweet Stamps - Challenge 31, Lace
• Card Makin' Mamas - Challenge 28, Digital

All I Want For Christmas Card

I've been a bit behind posting photos of the Christmas cards I made but this is the last one I promise! This was for my boyfriend Martin who loves my handmade cards so I always try to make each one better than the last. I spent ages colouring the image with my ProMarkers and am so pleased with how it turned out, though the shading hasn't photographed very well...



I've decided that it's really useful seeing the supplies people have used on their cards, so have decided that i'm going to start adding this information to my posts!
