Cards for Katie and Emma

Ohh we had the most beautiful sunny afternoon today, felt like a touch of summer!  I got loads of tidying up done in the garden, geraniums planted and some beetroot seeds sown.  I haven't tried growing beetroot before so we'll see how that goes :)

Couple of special requests cards tonight ....
Card 1 tonight is for a 30th Birthday.  I used this sweet LOTV doggy - I left it white so it kinda looked like Ruby, and then coloured my flowers with watercolour pencils to match my snazzy DP.  I also added some Spectrum Noir sparkle to my flowers.  Sparkly number stickers from stash.


My second card is for an 18th Birthday.  I've used this party girl from Stamping Bella - coloured with watercolour pencils.  Clear gloss added to her crown and shoes, glitter to the icing and Spectrum Noir sparkle to her bow.

These are two happy cards. Love the images and color combos. Love the sparkle, too. We had a nice weather day here, as well. I did some planting, took a walk with my daughter and her family and had an all-around nice day.

What great birthday cards, Lynne, I love the bright colours on the first one, and the Stamping Bella image on the second is fab - and beautifully coloured!

Good luck with growing the beetroot! My siblings and I loved beetroot when we were little because it turns your wee pink! Aren't children little charmers (not!!)?

love Mags B x
