Hand Cut decoupage planes

Good Morning, Its a beautiful day, nice and sunny,

I have made this hand cut decoupage card this morning, its of two planes, that I hand cut out and decoupaged up, then embossed the front of the card and cut down the embossing,

found two papers from my stash, and cut them to go on the card,

I also added a skeleton leaf, not sure why it just felt right,

I am entering this in the decorative cuts challenge over at http://onestopcraftchallenge.blogspot.com/

Sketch and Stash - challenge entry

I had a order for a birthday card for my friends sister, she chose this penny black stamp design,
so I water coloured it, then followed the sketch on http://sketchandstashchallenge.blogspot.com/2009/04/sketch-and-stash-challenge-8.html

The base card is a lovely pale green, and the backing papers are a pink polkadot that came from funkyfairys, Please see the link on side of my blog,

Lilac and Blue - colour create challenge

Here is my entry for this weeks challenge on http://colourcreatechallenge.blogspot.com/
Its Lilac and Blues, which are top of my favourite colours, so just had to participate in it,
The tag is pale lilac, edged in deep lilac, stamped in lilac coloured in shades of blues and lilacs,
even the greeting is coloured in lilac, all mounted on a blue card, with dark lilac corners, and not forgetting the little blue butterfly and ribbon,

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Above are photos of the cards my lovely boys gave me, and the wonderful hydrangea plant they got me, along with a box of my favourite chocolates (apart from hersheys) Guylian sea shells, and also had my hair cut on thursday just gone,

I really didnt expect all of this after having my hair cut and coloured,

I am a very happy mum,

There was a lovely verse writen by youngest son Delcan in the purple flower card he made for me at school, it reads :-

a recipe for a perfect mum,

take a beautiful smile,

some soft hugs,

and loving kisses,

mix really well,

the results are great,

you have made my mum,

to say it brought a tear to my eyes, is the least,

just had to share it with you all,

hope you all have a great mothers day,
