Congratulations in peach

I layered a Prima flower with a white fabric flower and placed a cuf link button in the center.
The leaf coming down from the bow is again taken from my bunch of plastic flowers. The fancy corner is  made with a doily, which I glittered. I edged two of its shapes with pearl rainbow glaze and placed a gem heart between them.

Peach card with ornate 3D flower

I punched four fancy corners and also two sides of a piece of peach coloured matting. Then I used a die cut flower from Kanban and layered it with another flower and placed a glittered pearl in the middle. I recycled the stem and leaves from a bunch of plastic flowers. The heart at its base is a brad.

Umbrella flowers recycled

Here I recycled a broken umbrella skin for the background of ma card - its fabric was far too pretty to throw away! I embellished it with a length of black plastic mini pearl string, a button, and sequins.

Orange and pink ovals birthday card

The task was to make a card with at least two ovals - I decided to go for four in this card, and edged them with a pearl and glitter coating.

The embellishments and the sentiment are metallic foil confetti and a length of silver pearl string.

Surfboard leaving card

Someone just jumped off his surfboard here... my attempt to make a funny "Leaving" card.
The surface of the sea is done as stripes, stamped in metallic ink with the background stamp from DRS designs.

Pop-up cake birthday

 For this card I used two ornamental punches, one on the corners of the card and the other one on the cake layers.

The candles and flames however were cut out by hand. I used two colours on the candles to make them appear three-dimensional.

On one of the corners I hadn't placed the card quite right into the punch and ended up with a slit punched into my card. In the end I decided to turn this mistake into a feature and decorate it with a piece of ribbon and sequins.
