Postcards as a gift for my friend Dale to send overseas.

10 new baby cards

Mass producing the latest card range. Someone better have a baby soon, I made ten tonight!

postcard trial

My first handmade postcard!

I made this card tonight (blank inside)...

And then I had left over paper so I made up the card below. I HATE to make baby cards but I think this is a design I could happily make. I actually stuffed up the S on the congratulations but we'll ignore that (and for that reason, it will now be thrown in the rubbish) and focus on the actual design. Do you like it?

Not done yet...

Do you remember these dinosaur cards I made a while back? I have to give you the link because I cant find the original photo on my computer.

Today I bought the matching numbers 1, 2 and 3 so I made these to go in/on those cards. I've had the matching paper set aside since I made them in February!

12 cards tonight!

Hi! I've made 12 cards tonight, not a bad effort!

First are 7 dog and butterfly cards. The dog stamp belongs to Sheryl, I stamped them at her house last night and turned them into cards at my house tonight.

Not too fond of the pink ones, I couldnt match my pinks very well tonight, though it isnt as bad as this photo makes it seem!

I bought this stamp today because it was just too cute to leave behind! A bit fiddly to hand colour them in but also sort of zen inducing. That's my new circle stamp in the background too.

I think I am in love with the ones below lol. They are cute! Cow's nose coloured in as above, or not coloured in as below?

I think I'm all stocked up on 'cute cards' now. I better do something in another genre lol.

KITTIES!!!

I was at Sheryl's using her stamps for this (the circles and the cats) so I figured I should just make a heap at once rather than have to keep asking to borrow her stamp! Besides, the wise amongst us know, you can never have too many kitties! They are mostly different slightly except the two orange ones are identical. I like the bottom blue one best (make a wish).

I do NOT like this card

I made this the other night. I did something and it looked terrible so I hid it under ribbon and I dont like it still!

And I just noticed there was a hair on the card when I took a photo, sorry about that lol.

A few cards

Lately I've been making 'lazy cards', quick and fast with no real effort. Tonight I decided it was time I went back to my usual 'style', which usually includes brads or eyelets and layering. Looking through my card drawer it was clear I needed sympathy cards. I also need baby cards and men's birthday cards but I cant do them all in one night so here are two sympathy cards I made tonight. They are the same except I stamped a different image on the blue cardstock.

And then you feel a little depressed so you have to make something that ISN'T a card about death so I made this card. I am contemplating if it needs something else. I have something in mind but I cant decide whether to do it or leave it as it is. Also, the browns all match in reality, the flash has distorted them.
