...a few cards


The first card is a 'greetings from Ireland card' - This card was made with all you ladies from the PTI forum in mind - I have enjoyed all your kind words of encouragement and I am inspired by all your creations daily.

I didn't have the appropriate sentiment so I fudged "greetings" and "from" together from PTI stamp sets and wrote the word Ireland. I made the shamrock using nestabilities heart shapes, scalloped and plain and I used an pair of oval nestabilities to make the stalk.



The second card is a CASE - I think that's right - of a card that was made by Heather Nichols - It's in the Inkpad gallery - you can find it quicker if you go to the PTI online store, view snowflake serenade stamp set and click on the ideas link.

I have really admired that card (among many others) and wanted to make a version - I really wish I had designed it first, lol!!!

The third card was a trial at A2 size - haven't made one this size before - It's not earth shattering but it'll do. lol.

  3. Your cards are beautiful Claire!

    By the way, I was thinking of you when I took the pictures of my craft area--I cropped out the Christmas centerpiece that's on top of my shelf (I don't want to take it apart to store it). So it's like Christmas everyday in my craft room. :-)
