Cards, Cards, Cards

I haven't uploaded any cards to my blog in a long time. However, today I decided to put some cards on Ebay so I photographed a batch of cards for that and thought to update my blog while I was at it :)

Hope you like 'em!

These 3 baby cards are simple and clean. The glitz of the gems and the big bows give them focus.

This card is done using the Cricut Craft Room to merge 3 shapes: square, baby onesie and a duck.

 This butterfly card is from the Cricut Rock Princess cartridge

Panda and noodles are cut from Create A Critter Cricut cartridge, so cute.

This card uses the Lily of the Valley stamp of a boy with his toy boat.  I made this a pea-green boat as my nephew loves the poem The Owl and the Pussy Cat and this reminded me of him.

These 2 cards are made with stamped and paper-pieced image called 'Meet Me at the Cafe' from My Favorite Things.  I love this stamp set, it comes with the awning stamp which allows you to create what looks like a cafe window, I used acetate over the image to make it more windowy.  The fence is made with the Martha Stewart Deep 'Trellis' Edge  punch.

I love the heart border used on this card, it is a Martha Stewart punch called, I think, Heart Lace.  The background paper is from Basic Grey's Lemonade collection - the whole collection is lovely.   The cherries are simply circles punched from pink card and the leaf and stem are cut free-hand.

The stamped image here is from Stamping Bella's Lulu range.  The accents on the bow are made from air-drying clay and Fimo

This cupcake card is cut from the Cricut Create A Critter cartridge, there is so much to this cartridge, much more than just animals.

These cute little girls are Gorjuss Girls...

... and the bottom 2 cards have a wheel which you rotate to change the colours/patterns of the dresses, you can see the wheel on the right-hand side of the cards. 

This card is shaped like a jug with cut flowers in - made with Cricut Country Life cartridge.

This card uses Cricut Decals cartridge.

This card has a padded fabric heart on the front, inside are several pages so that the card can be used as a note pad by the recipient.

These 2 cards were made with the Hello Kitty Greetings Cricut cartridge....

 ...and the bottom card is a round stepper card which means it literally rocks \m/

The lollipops on this card are made with circles of acetate.  I swirled PVA glue on and sprinkled liberally with one colour of glitter, once that was dried I did a second swirl and glittered that in a different colour.  I used the sticks off real lollipops.

Bunny and butterfly cut on the Making Memories Slice using Dilly Dally cartridge.  The sentiment is stamped from My Pink Stamper's Punnylicious range....

Cat from Slice 'Zoo-topia' card, sentiment from My Pink Stamper's Punnylicious range

This waterproof lady is cut from the Cricut 'One Upon a Princess' cartridge.
