Red Hat Lady

I love the colours on this card - I'd make a great Red Hat Society Lady!! I stamped the lady onto a scallop circle then cut out a slightly bigger circle n purple card & run it through my cuttle bug. I used the D'vine Swirls embossing folder on it. I also used the Stylised Flowers folder on the small purple circles. I placed the circles in the folder so I got the center of the flower in the center of the card. (Did I explain that ok?!) I added some daisy shaped gems to the small purple circles & purple brads to the corners of the card.

What you can't see, & what I do with most of my cards, is, I make a paper insert for each card. So each card has a co-ordinating inside that I use to stamp/write on.

I have one last thing to say..thank God I have a spellchecker on here!! :-)

The Three Gossips # 2

Here are the Three Gossips again, this time in their Red Hats!

This image is not the best...it's a bit out of focus. I like to scan my cards but it takes soooo long to upload them! Maybe if I scan them at a lower dpi it will be better.

I used my Cuttelbug to make the fancy corners & have also used it on the red centre strip, behind the ladies.

(Love that Cuttlebug machine!)

This was a bigger card then normal, so it had to go into a square envelope.

I gotta learn to make cards that fit in 'normal' size envelopes! (or do I??!)
