New Goodies and Betty's birthday card


LOL, another 'one of those days' in work again, so another couple of cards for you this evening  #stressrelief   
Hopefully I'll not be sharing any cards tomorrow night ;)

On the bright side, I'd a parcel of crafty goodness waiting on me coming home. I got some real bargains from Bunny Zoe's Crafts 70% off closing down sale.  So sad though, they were a pleasure to do business with and everything always arrived very promptly.

This little guy is one of my newbies from Nellie Snellen, isn't he a cutie.  I've used some older DPs that I've always disliked, but I stuck with it and think it looks OK.

This one is for my SIL's birthday and I'm so pleased with how it turned out.  
My inspiration came from Tracey's beautiful card over at the Muse challenge:

I've used an older set from Power Poppy.  Coloured with watercolour pencils and the flowers are all covered with my clear glitter pen so it's lovely and sparkly in real life.

These cards are fantastic--especially that pretty floral card for your SIL! The flowers are so perfectly placed and beautifully colored. I only wish we could show the pretty sparkle more easily in our pictures (darn cameras!), but I'm imagining all that gorgeous sparkle anyway.
