a tiny flower  from Crafty Individuals (the reverse side has a larger version of the stamped image in orange ) and Anchor threads in yellows , oranges & greens

U for Unused stash

I had half a sheet left of this golfer decoupage and nearly a full pad of the papers so I think this will qualify for the unused theme on the Alphabet Challenge , I don,t do decoupage very often but I bought this one for a golfing friend  originally, I hope he doesn,t remember it as he will probably get this card next year.

Trees

T for Trees

is something I have made for a fat book swap ,we are doing the 4 seasons and have now just started the Autumn ones,I used a scene from an old wall paper book ,the picture continues on the back of the page,then I added some vellum over the top cut with a Fiskars scallop punch( I nearly used this last week for S)
I made a little window frame and covered it with some hessian print paper ,put a scrap of bronze card behind that was embossed with Cuttlebug Divine Swirls and popped a leaf on the top.

I printed the planes and greeting onto the card,then added some silver glitter glue to highlight the main image , the scallop borders were cut from DCWV adhesive card with a Fiskars punch

Ovals

A  card for letter O in the Alphabet Challenge
