1st March 2015

A Celebration card for friends .

I  really enjoyed making this card for two very special friends especially when I had chance to use the two cute teddies in the boat.  The lovely couple that I know own a narrow boat and I guess this was the nearest I could get to sailing on the water  !  Just love LOTV stamps, any excuse to use them.

So here's what I did...... The pretty white arch at the top was done by layering Spellbinder borders under each other, snucked up tight, no spaces, held in place with tape and die cut. I used 250 gsm card so that it would be nice and sturdy.  The filigree bow is by Sue Wilson dies, use it loads as it so very pretty, and popped a little rose in the middle.


 
 
Again I have used my favourite colouring pens...Copics. !  I know that there are stars in the sky, but didn't want to make the picture too dark, so made it early evening, stars still out !  but I guess you could call it artistic licence.
 
I have put some white pearl Stickles around the teddy bear frame
 
 
Here's a closer peep at the hand made flower that I made using Mulberry paper, sprayed with a touch of pink, scrunched up then dried and teased out. A little glitter as well.
 
 
Here is a peep of the card from the side view. I have used my own stash of card plus LOTV paper
 
 
This is the inside of the card, decorated to match the front.
 
 
 
 
Thank you for stopping by, hope that you have a wonderful day, my best wished to all , until next time,  hugs xxx
