Punched pacman

I needed a card for an 'old' friend's birthday... so this is what I came up with. A pacman card made from a variety of punches:


Can you spot the punches I have used?

Jungle safari quilt

I shared a baby card with you at the weekend, which I made for a friends new arrival. The jungle/safari theme makes a lovely change from blue or pink baby cards... so I was even more excited when my mum created this beautiful quilted blanket after I asked her to make something for the nursery.


All I told her was that it needs to be orange and green and have a jungle/safari theme. Isn't it absolutely beautiful! Here are a few close up's of the individual animals.

Lovely lion

Owl with pocket

Funky monkey

Stampin' Up! fans may recognise some of the fabrics that were used, bits and pieces left over from the fabric range that is now retired unfortunately.

New baby card with a jungle/safari theme

It seems that baby cards are always blue or pink! So I was excited to get to make something in a different colour, for a specific theme to co-ordinate with the nursery theme, for my friends new arrival.

Here's the card I had fun making with a variety of punches, although I did case the idea from Julie.


Materials
Cardstock - Tangerine Tango, So Saffron.
Punches - Oval, 1" 3/4 circle, 1" 3/8 circle, 1/2" circle, scalloped circle, Owl Punch, Boho Blossoms.

Personalised football card

This is a very quick card to make, the personalising part was a little tricky as I had to stamp each letter independently using my Stamp-a-majig. If you don't have one of these - you must get one!

Animal bookmark cards

Plenty of people still read 'books' rather than having a Kindle. I was recently asked to create a card commission with a book theme, for someone who also likes animals. Here's what I came up with, you may recognise them a little.
