MORE box cards for lots of occasions...

Owls (Peel-offs) in black and tan , craft card, brown card, floral papers make up this Hoot of a card!

Gents stripes and a Stamped and embossed greeting (cut into 4 parts) make
 this smart card for a gents birthday..of any age!


Again, I have used Peel-Offs for the NEW HOME theme for my friends who have just moved! 
Acetate strips make the attached houses Wobble, but keep firmly in place!  I have also placed the NEw Home message on a WOBBLER for a bit of extra wobble!

A flowery cards -that folds flat to post

Another idea...




A floral box card with a cascading greeting (from a set of words by Jane Gill - Woodware)
Background paper made using the Creative pallette -shades of greens are so useful!

Glitter with Stencils and dsa sheet!

The Glitter Gallery - by my class last week!  What alot of glitter. 
We used Stencils onto Double sided sheet -add glitter to space, remove stencil, then add contrasting glitter to leftover dsa surface!  Ooooh lovely! 
TOP TIP - Always use a natural soap on back of stencil to prevent it from sticking really tight to dsa!  Or you will not be able to remove it without bending it!!
 

Pink glitter first - than Crystal glitter next!  Oh so gorgeous!

Jan and Mandy giggling over glitter!!

Pats perfection paid off!

A steady hand - Heather I think!

Ideas for men...well these 2 could not be more different could they! 
Paper pieced spotty PANTS  for a Birthday boy or Captain Underpants! 
This small set (£4.05 in Japonica)is  by Francoise Read and has 4 greeetings with it to make the most of your pants! 
Captain Underpants, Birthday Boy, Happy Birthday  and Happy Christmas - its all covered!!
 
The ship is a gorgeous collage style stamp by Stampendopus -I have added Frantage in Marine Blue -very apt, and some Ivory frantage with  craft card.  All printing done using Versafine Majestic Blue - a very rich colour!
