COVER GIFT

Hi Everyone

I hope you are all doing well and that the snow isn't causing you any problems.  

All still super busy here with no time to make anything I can share with you at the moment as I am working my way through wedding orders and wedding stationery samples for potential new couples.

However, I was really lucky to be asked by Quick Cards Made Easy to work with the cover gift for this month's publication and thought I would share a couple of my makes with you.

It is the first time I have had a commission that involved the cover gift and I have to say I loved the stamps very much.

They were Somebunny clear stamps and I know I will be using them lots.  I did four cards in total and here are two of them.  The stamps are a brilliant size and they stamp beautifully too, as you can see.  I think the little boy rabbit is my favourite .. .. he looks so cute:



These used:

Images:  Somebunny Clear Stamps especially designed for Quick Cards Made Easy 
Sentiment:  Lili of the Valley for the birthday greeting and computer generated for the get well card
Backing Papers:  Wild Rose Studio
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Martha Stewart Punch:  Half Daisy
ProMarkers
Ribbon from my stash box
So there we go .. 

Enjoy what is left of this evening and I hope tomorrow is kind to you.

Love

    I had to buy this magazine as soon as I saw these gorgeous stamps, I loved these images n decoupage back when I started card making. Love the colouring and the cards are so fresh looking too. Hugs, Amanda x

    Fabulous cards Jules. The reason you were asked by the magazine is because you are sooo talented - NOT lucky.

    Hope you catch up with your orders soon.

    Do you download your fonts or are they on a disc?
    The reason I asked is because I tried to download one and I kept getting pop ups afterwards -Ggrrr!

    Take care xx

    These are both gorgeous Jules, but I have to agree with you - the little boy bunny is my favourite and I love the blue and green combination.

    It must be so exciting to have so much wedding work coming through, it sounds like you have a very busy life at the moment what with one thing and another.

    Take care.

    BRILLIANT Jules!! I subscribe to QCME and love the stamp set too and not just for Easter is it. I hadn't realised you'd done the cards using the set on Page 7 (should have guessed though 'cos there are hearts). Always hunt out both Katina's and your features first of course.

    Hugs, Di xx
