A Mother's Day Selection

 Mother's Day I love making these cards it gives me a chance to experiment with my Spellbinder dies mixing them up and incorporating stamping techniques and ribbon ruffling on the last card.
I used the Grand Calibur for these cards but sometimes use my Big shot for smaller projects

Anniversary medal

I was asked to make a Fun card for a 40th Anniversary that looked like a rosette or medal and came upi with this. I used a mixture of Spellbinder and Marianne Dies.

I Love making Fun cards and think I managed to keep the decorum of the Anniversary, Ican tell you it was received very well and has taken pride of place

Butterfly Pazzles

I used my lovely Pazzles machine to cut the edge for this card used flourish stamps for the background. I printed the greeting and used a Spellbinder die to the fancy shape and a few punched out butterflies and Gems.

(Note to myself)

I need to use my Pazzles more as i got the Inspiration Studio Pro software for Christmas but have not had much time to play with it.
