Sapphire Anniversary

can,t believe it has been 45 years since my best friends Margaret and David got married this is their card the glittery papers are from Deecraft's iris folding strips I can,t remember where I got the background card from as I have had it so long. the numbers 45 and greeting are coloured peeloffs.

Boating

First card made this year , for a 4 year old boy,I couldn,t think of anything at first ,then I remembered I had some of this paper left over,so I cut a similar boat shape for the iris folding.

Champagne Bottle

I was asked to make a card for someone who  works a lot with Fairtrade and is moving on to a new position,  I cut a bottle shape from black card folded to DL size,and used the 4 colours of the Fairtrade logo in an Iris fold square for the label ,the little tag is done with Quick kutz

Roses

A pink Iris fold Rose in pearl papers,rub on corners , Anna Griffin background paper on pink card and a stamped greeting

Ovals

A  card for letter O in the Alphabet Challenge

I cut a 4 leaf clover shape and used a mixture of green  papers, 2 of which were  from envelopes, and the oval is  actually the reverse of one from an old card so I don,t know how the edge was punched

Crafts U Print Competition
