Go-Kreate Boo Bear Christmas Card with Spellbinder Tree

Good Morning :)


Today I bring you a commissioned card using Go-Kreate Boo Bear dies with a Spellbinder Tree. The lady wanted a First Christmas card which was pink. I really enjoyed designing this card and this is what I came up with ...


I love these dies, they always cut cleanly and are super cute. I've kept the colour schemes girly with the pink background and kept the bears outfit simple. To finish I added glitter to the tree and pink, clear gems for baubles and personalised lettering. 

Thanks for looking,


Sarah.

Little Claire - digi VW Campervan Card

Good Morning :)


Today I am sharing with you a Birthday card I had for a lady who is mad on Campervans. I found the most perfect digital stamp on the Little Claire website called digi VW Campervan. Perfect as I can resize this fit any card I wish to make.

 
 

I decided on blues, yellows and oranges for the card and used Pro-makers to match the ready made flowers and buttons. I printed the van twice and cut around one to create a layer and make this card special. So pleased with the end result :)
