• A Special Milestone – Birthday Card!

    Lisa (Candles by Lisa) asked me to make a special Birthday Card for her sister in law.

    I wanted to do something a little different so came up with the idea of using a bottle shape.  The bottle is hand cut from a template I created, edged with fuchsia glitter, computer printed wording and the bottle foil is made by using Anita’s 3d metallic paint quite thickly applied directly from the bottle.  The lady is based upon my ‘All Dressed Up’ character, personalised to look like the recipient.

    Fuchsia and gold organza ribbon tie it off nicely (‘scuse the pun!)  I’ve used a bow maker – the best £3 I’ve ever spent as it saves me so much time and the bows can be cute and small or big and bold.  I’m also a hoarder of ribbon – organza being the current favourite!

      And my sis in law is going to go nuts for them. Thanks yet again.
