Funky Moped - My Brothers Card

My Brothers Birthday Card.



I saw this curtesy of Judith Maslen and thought of my brother i traced the bike onto vellum using a silver gel pen filled the tyres and hand grips in with Marvy No. 1 black the red parts with Marvy No. 2 Red with the white it was a white

paint pen. At the moment im thinking of backing it onto a Union Jack.

 

 

this is the pattern i traced the "Funky Moped" from.

Using a picture i copied the Union Jack onto a piece of white cardstock. Using Marvy No. 3 Blue & Marvy No.2 Red.

 I glued the picture onto a red card adhered the vellum onto the union jack and finally added happy birthday stick-ons all around the card to hide the doublesided tape which showed through.

 

The Mask - Finished for my Sister-in-Law

 

Hello again folks this is the finshed "Mask Card". Excuse my manners but I must also thank Judith Maslen again for one of her patterns. Thank you Judith. After cutting out the mask i ummed & Arhed about what to do next so after awhile i added yellow ribbons some bling in the form of gold flowers some yellow feathers. Using my hot glue gun (ooh i love it) i glued it onto a gold card at a jaunty angle i then made a flower using cream card. i had fun embossing it in copper embossing powder (thats all i had) which turned out quite nice i think added some leaves in brown & cream used "Happy Birthday" stickers bought in Hobbycraft added a gold & vellum butterfly

 

 

 

The making of my sisters card

First thing i did was traced the lady onto vellum using 0.2 Fineline in black. I started by making sure I took my time as i wanted it to be right. coloured the headband and dress strap in "Marvy No.7 Orange" I used a Red Glitter Gel pen for her lips and a light blue for her eye.

 I used "Marvy No. 18 Dark Brown" for her hair.

I used an Orange wax crown and an imbossing tool to give the effect of feathers with a soft orangey look.
 

i stuck the vellum in a gold card with the oval aperture then i started on the parasol. I seem to have forgotten to take some photos of the parasol. But this is what I did I used the pattern traced it in white pencil I used a multi grid for the pattern. Then using a pricking tool I pricked all around the outside  and used parchment scissors to cut out the parasol. I assembled using double sided tape using wire for the main part wrapped it in white ribbon.

 I lined the card with cream card to cover the vellum attached the sentiment and
added the 2 gems to keep in the orange colour scheme.

 

Using the Freebie butterfly stencil i cut out 2 butterflies 1 in vellum and 1 in gold card and the spellbinders

 shapabilities Spiral Blossom 1 i cut out of cream card i added som leaves in various shade of cream/gold and

 finally added  a gold bow to the parasol. After sticking everything on this is the finished card.

 

 

 

 

 

HOPE YOU LIKE IT.

 

 

My Sisters Card

Morning fellow crafters.
I have been busy making another card this time it is for my sister, its her birthday in July but better to create in advance i say (only because i never get it right first time). I must first take time to thank 2 people Judith Maslen & Sylvia Marshall both of these lovely ladies supplied me with the patterns to make it THANK YOU Judith & Sylvia. Another thing is i bought myself a glue gun (oh heaven) more im making a bit of a mess stringy bits everywhere oh well never mind its fun picking them off. These are the two pattern that i used. No i did not make a Christmas Card i used just the lady from 1 and the parasol from the other

Hubbies Birthday Card

Hubbies Birthday card

Ok here it is not perfect but neither am i!!! after several attempts this is the final one i used the "china Blue" & "Pear Green" promaker pens to colour the background and a white gel pen for the lines. i bought some kiddie birthday bags cutout and used one of the stadium, also the football. I made a banner and embossed it (first attempt) outlined it in white gel pen. cutout and coloured the badge added the "Loftus Road Stadium" sign to it and finally a birthday boy badge and rosette. Just in case you were wondering he likes Queens Park Rangers.

The mask stage 3

Ok now i have cut it out completely. Doesn't look too bad. Next stage is to mount it onto the card. Watch this space

The mask stage 2

In this stage I outlined in gold gel pen. I followed ish the embossing and pricking patterns I'm not very good with the cutting out yet (come to think of it I'm a bit ok) it's not looking too bad.

The mask

This is the original pattern for the mask. I never followed the instruction (naughty I know) I was only experimenting.
