My workmate who commissioned the Ars Longa card then asked me for another one. She had a look at this site (hi Bel!) and asked for a card based on the 50th Birthday Card I did last year. Because I was working on an A5 folded to A6 card, it was half the size of […]
My manager is getting married this weekend, and this is the card I made for her, from our team at work. This is A4 folded to A5 size. Copper Brilliance ink edging the card stock. Images stamped on Sheer Heaven vellum, and dress coloured with Twinkling H2os. Mounted on metallic cream cardstock with pewter flower […]
This was a card commissioned for someone at work, whose friend was performing for the first time in an opera. Stamped theatre masks image layered on purple cardstock, then metallic cream, and then onto printed music paper that has been aged around the edges. Base card has been aged with a texture block before […]
I have to admit I can’t remember what this was for. Someone at work, either a birthday or a farewell. I found the scan in my folder when I was cleaning out emails. The stamp is one of my favourites, it is like a Renaissance depiction of the sun in the heavens. There is a […]
One of the student casuals at work left last week, returning to Sweden. This is the card I made, the background paper is all one piece even though it looks like multiple pieces of paper. The base cardstock is an off-white speckled card that has an uncoated texture. I really like to work with this […]
One of the girls at work got married and her colour scheme was black and white, with some hints of red. This is the card I made that was given to her with a gift from the people at work – I chose the chandelier because she is a bit of a goth. And although […]
So we had someone else at work getting married, and her manager asked if I could make a card for everyone to sign. I have worked with R quite a bit over the years, and have met her partner a few times so I was happy to get involved. Subtle and surreptitious questioning failed to […]
When S finished up at work, I made this card which was signed by our team for her. I know green and blue are her favourite colours, and used that as the basis for the design. The background card is just one piece of a kind of patchwork cardstock that I thought went well with […]
This was for a lady at work whose 50th birthday fell on Valentine’s day. She always wears bright colours, and I was going for an art deco feel. The layers are cardstock, floral paper, green cardstock, and white card which has been sponged for the stamped image. The vellum has been edged with copper ink, […]
Last weekend we went away, and amongst other things had a few Rock Band 2 sessions. We have unlocked the Endless Setlist, and even made a start on it, but decided to wait until we were less tired and there were more of us (as it is better to have a few extra people to […]
