Magical fairies

Hi, so as you may have noticed I haven't been keeping up with my latch hooking! But I have got a card for you to have a look at!





So heres the card, it has been created using a series of dies layered on top of each other.

Using a plain pure white card, with a layer of die cut pure white card on top, you will notice on the images below that the pattern frames the edges of the blue card.

After you have die cut the pale blue card add silhouette of a fairy and a border of mushrooms and swirls.

Complete with a matching blue panel with a message, I chose happy birthday but this simple card suits any occasion.

You could make multiple versions in one go to keep to one side when you need a card, then all you need to do is add a sentiment such as thanks or happy anniversary!


Also stamp a few words inside the card if you're not sure what to write out or just for convenience!




   










 Here is an enlarged image of the card












Have fun crafting

Butterfly birthday card







This card has been created using a selection of dies and embossing folders to give the butterflies some texture. The colours can be varied to create different effects such as in the images below.





On a plain card I have put a swirly die cut and shaped the two butterflies onto to add a 3D effect.
This card can be used as a thank you card, birthday card, sorry card or a party invite.











This card is shown using the same colours but opposite.











Problems

This card was quite simple and quick to make the only problem i found was when trying to cut the mirror card, sometimes the plastic top coating peeled off but i found that if you place the die onto the plastic coating on the mirror card it cuts very simply.
