3rd Card ~ Hobby House ~Card Kit
Hi Everyone :0)
I hope you are all well.
Here is my third card - it is a card from Hobby House and is part of box set they were advertising.
It looked great as basically it contained everything you needed to make 6 (I think) cards :0)
Great Idea, but not when your on medication...I found this one REALLY hard to make!
Anyway, I am pleased to say that I finally won the battle and this is what I came up with.
I have to say it was a challenge for me and a real head scratcher!!!!
I decided this would be a lovely card for a very good friend of mine Vonny. I have never, ever made her a home made card for her lol so I thought I would surprise her this year with this one :)
In the end, I had great fun with this card :)
I love the flowers in the top right hand corner, I punched out some leaves and added some of my tiny roses from my stash of flowers
The Hobby House image is a Topper so I think I added some Pearl gems to that as well and some glitter to the image
The border around the image I have added pearls too
I added the Spiral of swirly pearls to the bottom right and really liked the effect
I love the look of the panels with the ribbon and added gems - I think I would have liked to have added a border through the middle to make it look like 6 panels (Hindsight)
But overall, I am really pleased with it and think she is lovely. Vonny was also pleased with the card too which is great.
Thank you for looking, hugs Sonia xx

2nd Card - Thinking of you at this sad time
Hello Everyone,
Firstly, I am amazed with the comments and support that you have been kind enough to show me and want to thank you again for inspiring me to give this a go.
As promised here is my second card - I hoped to Blog it a bit sooner but I have had a rough few days, Week 1 of recovery was ok, but then it started to go downhill and I found I have had to go rest a lot more or go to bed. I also managed to get an infection too so that probably added to the increase in pain.
Anyhow...here it is :)
As mentioned before, it is the second card for my friend who wanted it for his mum.
It is a Hunky Dory Card and I really did not have a clue what to do, the sentiment he wanted was the same as the sentiment on the panel.
So, I decided to make the card as a tall card with the panel, add a ribbon and bow and then some purple gems.
My aim was to go with elegant as it was a sentimental card. I then added the sentiment to the inside of the card.
I am pleased to say my friend Mark was pleased with the outcome.
I hope you like the card too.
Thanks for all your support,
Hugs, Sonia xx
