Rachel's Cards and Crafts

This is a bright card I have made this afternoon. The papers are from a download from the internet (it may have been papercraft inspirations but not sure as it was a while ago I downloaded it). The floral and with love embelishments are from the same download and the butterflies are papermania diecuts.

This one is quite a simple card. I have used a Papermania embossed card and added glammor dust to the flowers, some I have then added a pearl to the centre and the rest a little silver stickles glue. I then added two Papermania pearl flower embelishments to the embossed pannels. I have left the sentiment off so I can use the card for any purpose.

Well this is my first attempt at a blog challenge. This one is from Cute Card Thursday . The challenge was to make a card without using a background paper. I coloured a Tilda image with sakura pens and coloured pencils. I embossed two pieces of pearl card with my cuttlebug, matted these onto a pink pearl card and placed a sticky ribbon across where they met, which I have sat Tilda on. I then added jems to accent and a floral embellishment. Then finally added a birthday wishes peel off. I am not sure about this so your comments and suggestions will be appreciated.

I love this card and layout for the Crafters Companion Sketch card 14 Challenge. I designed this card around the backing paper. I used a 6" square card which I matted the backing paper to. The pink square of card is embossed using my cuttlebug. I have added two papermania embelishments and clear heart jems.

I decided to make a simple card for this sketch. Again it is for the Crafters Companion Forum. I used a 6" square holographic card for this, matted a pink piece of check paper and a papermania embelishmednt onto it.

Crafters Companion Sketch Card Challenge 12. I printed the card with this background and then matted two squares and added three papermania embelishments and sticky ribbon.

Another order this time the requests were Thomas the Tank Engine, Blue and White and for son's first birthday.

This is a card order I made for my husband's work colleagues Sisters Wedding this weekend. She wanted a card with blue and white and butterflies. I made an A4 card and used handmade papers and pear card for the base of the card. The butterflies are Craft Creation peel off's I have mounted on pear card and then another onto acetate to make the 3d effect. I have also finished the design with further peel offs and ribbon.

This is the card I did for the Crafters Companion Sketch Card Challenge 11 last month but only got round to updating my blog tonight. I have used a Magnolia stamped image and coloured it with pencils. Then added an embelishment to it and finished with Craft Creations Peel offs.

This is the second of my new cuddly Buddly Stamps, Sitting Emmy. Coloured with pencils, matted onto silver holographic card and then onto a piece of backing paper from funky fairys. Finished with some gems and stickles glitter glue. Thanks for looking.

This is the first card I have made using Cuddly Buddly Stamps. I used my standing Emmy stamp for this and coloured with pencils. The background paper is from the funky fairy free download on their blog . The flowers are stamps from Dmension Fourth . I have added some craft creation peel offs and some stickles glitter glue for finishing touches. I love how this card has turned out and can't wait to have a go with some of my other stamps.

I have combined two challenges to make this card, Cuddly Buddly Wee Weezi Challenge and Crafters Companion Sketch 10 Challenge The Wee Weezi image I coloured using Paint and then with 3d2 card builder I have designed the background. Wee Weezi is matted onto silver holographic card. I have used some sticky ribbon and holographic peel off sheet to make a strip, on this I have placed a dome sticker which says happy birthday.

This is a quick card I have done using the Crafters Companion Girls CD. I have added a little glitter to the flower. Matted this onto sliver holographic card and then onto one of the backing papers from the cd. Then finished with some craft creations glitter peel offs. Thanks for looking.

This card I have made for my mother in laws birthday. I designed the backing paper and pyramid decoupage image myself in 3d2 programme. I have also used some craft creations peel offs to finish the design.

Here is my attempt at the sketch challenge for crafters companion this week. I have used the new girls cd from crafters companion. The butterfly is decoupaged. Hope you like it.

Here are a few of the cards I have made recently. Hope youlike them I have used a range of cd's including tripple treasures, cute companions from crafters companion, various rubber stamps and embelishments.

On this challenge each month I set a list of features for a card to be designed using. This one was for bright colours, embossing (dry/heat) and gems. For my card I decided to use a paper from the Triple Treasures cd, embossed a panel on my cuttlebug and then used embellishment which had gems attatched to them. This was then finished off with a Happy Birthday sentiment.

Sketch 1 This is the first card from the sketch challenges on crafters comapanion. On the forum there are weekly sketches which illistrate a layout and we design a card from this.
