613 Avenue Create Challenge #96 - Anything Goes/Thank You

Hi Crafters,
The weeks are whizzing by and it is time for another challenge at 613 Avenue Create.
It's always Anything Goes with an optional twist this time of Thank You.
Here is my inspirational card for you all...  
...there's lots of glitter and gems on here but as usual the camera is not showing it :( I have glittered around each leaf  and the frame is heat embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Aurora Sparkle embossing powder over the brown cardstock but this isn't showing up either :(

Isn't she the most gorgeous Sprite, I love her eyes.

Matching Gift Bag

Hello Everyone :0)

It's Hubby's Birthday tomorrow and if you remember I shared with you some cards I had made for him from family members, well I suddenly remembered that I didn't have any male wrapping paper in the house, ooops. So, I decided to make a matching gift bag for his pressie.

 

I found a plain brown paper bag in my craftroom ( hidden under all sorts of goodies that I had forgotten I had, I really must have a tidy and sort out, do any of you find things you've forgotten you've bought or is it just me?) I set about printing the backing paper and image again from Delicious Doodles and voila! I'm quite pleased with how it turned out.

Thanks for visiting

See you soon

Another Card For Hubby.....

....Good evening everyone,
It's been a busy week for male cards here in Raineys Craft Room, this will be the third one - all for my husband but commissioned by different members of the family. My hubby is an engineer so anything mechanical is just perfect for him so I would like to share my latest card with you.

 



This lovely digi image came from Delicious Doodles and I teamed it with some digi paper  and Papermania Cogs and Gears die cuts which I then heat embossed with black embossing powder. Here's a closer look...

 

 

I think they came out a treat, and quite realistic.

 

I've had some lovely comments recently from you all so thank you so much for making me feel welcome in Blogland, I'm still fairly new to it all, only started my blog in August, so it means a great deal to me thanks again.

 

See you soon,

 

Lorraine
