PRETTY AS A PICTURE CARD

I thought this cute Digi by Amanda would make a great card topper, if you'd like her you can get her HERE

I coloured the image digitally to match the Dot Pastel backing Paper (which I really like) also by Amanda. HERE.

After making a sentiment I printed the whole thing off on a sheet of "Whisper White" card and assembled the 6"x6" card.
I then simply added a small flower and some gem "buttons".

I hope you like it :0)

BUTTERFLIES, DAISIES AND FRILLIES CARD.




I used Amanda's FREE Digi stamps, available from her A.J.s Digi Shoppe , to make this sweet little card.

By using pink and yellow as the main colours as I thought it would make it fresh looking.
I simply coloured and printed the digi's and attached them to the card, the flowers were then punched out and attached using foam pads.

I hope you like it    :0)

Hopping down the bunny trail...

Use these great Easter digital papers to create your very own easter egg cards.  Print out the paper then cut it out into egg shapes, ink them up up with a clear or light colored embossing ink and emboss them completely.  The effect is very pretty, if I do say so myself.  Use double sided foam tape to pop up your eggs and bunny.  Also don't forget to create a pretty background from things lying around your studio, like this inked up coffee filter.  Have fun making your own cards with this great new set of digi papers.
