Yee Haa!

My grandson Billy celebrated his birthday this week and this is the card I made him.  He so loves this old tv show from the 1970's and says "Yee Haa!" when he sees the car leap into the air.

As I could not find any digi/rubber stamps suitable I had to download and print images from the computer.  Once I had a few images I fussy cut them so that I could decoupage them to give a 3D look.  I attached the title with foam pads and stamped the "Yee Haa!" directly onto the card and heat embossed it.

All That Stickles (2) - Xmas Red

Tomorrow we will be celebrating the Chinese New Year (Year of the Snake), so naturally I have made a card for my son and daughter in law.  I followed the great sketch, having turned it first, and layered my base card with gold cardstock and some Han-Ji papers.  I found the image on the computer and added this after layering it.  Next I added some gold and red ribbon which I added a metal filigree topped with a gem.  I then attached some gold leaves and cherry blossom.  To finish off I added Xmas Red Stickles to the background paper and the snake's hat.  Although my insert is rather plain I have stamped a sentiment and some lanterns which I coloured with promarkers.  Hope you like it, thanks for looking.

Here is a card I was commissioned to do for a colleague.  A special friend of hers is going to be 70 years young and this car is his passion.  I have made a zig zag card.  I printed the car onto glossy photo paper and decoupaged it to give depth.  Hope she likes it, thanks for looking.

It's Thursday again which means a new challenge at Cute Card Thursday and another card from me as GDT. This week's theme is 'Metallica' which means we want to see a metal element on your creation. Do check out the DT's creations for fantastic inspiration.

I made this card for a friend who is a big Michael Jackson fan. I found the picture on the internet and printed it off and computer generated the sentiment. I used metallic holographic card behind the image which I embossed with a folder. To finish off I added some punched stars with gem centres. Hope you like it, thanks for looking.
