Aviary birdcage birthday card
This birthday card uses a selection of Scallop Trim mats (measurements here) to frame the caged birds. As there isn't too much space behind the frames for extra layers, the background was textured for added interest. The card base is an A6 portrait of Regal Rose (a...
Beginners cards – masculine and feminine
Today I had the good fortune to be helping out at a Learning at Work day - where employees get to have "taster" sessions of different skills and pastimes. (If you were there today and are stopping by my blog for the first time then "Hi", it was lovely to meet you )....
You are … Father’s Day card
