Cards for Sandra and Emily

Oh Brrr and Brr again!  It's been a chilly old day today, such a cold wind and sleety showers.  Definitely an indoors type of day! Even Rubydoo has thought better of her usual barking spot at the back gate and has been snuggled up on the sofa most of the day!

My mojo is still misbehaving big time :(
It's a struggle to sit down and make a card and then even the simplest one takes forever to put together!  But I had a couple of special orders, so no excuses, get on with it!  I do like how they turned out though :)

This first card uses an oldie from Lili of the Valley.  Coloured with watercolour pencils and silver die cuts added.
This one's for a friend in work, this LOTV stamp has turned out to be a great buy!   Again coloured with watercolour pencils and clear gloss added to the petals.

Well, you seem to function VERY well in the crafty department, even when Mr. Mojo is misbehaving!! It is MR. Mojo, right? A MS. Mojo would not leave you in the lurch like that!! he he I really do love both these cards. The images are so cute, and they're colored beautifully. We've had a bit of a lazy day here. Did a bit of grocery shopping and leaf raking, but not much else. I did spend some time down in my craft dungeon, making Christmas cards. I'm starting to see the light at the end of that very long tunnel. :)

A LOTV fest!! These are lovely Lynne, I have a real fondness for little Millie and her pets...so cute and the pink paper suits her perfectly. LOTV can always be relied on can't they?!

I think this is the best part of cardmaking - the ability to personalize and make someone feel really special! These are both very fun and sure to be loved! Thanks so much for joining us at Muse this week!

Sweet cards. Love that you have personalised them. Our pets (especially the 4 cats) don't like our current weather. It's not exactly cold or wet, but it's a bit dreary, so they spent most of the day inside.

Two Terrific cards Lynne. You achieved a fabulous shine on those flowers from the gloss and the enamel accents. Such a fab image and useful for many occasions. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Less is More xx
