It was my sister, Lisa's birthday last week. I wanted to use some of my yummy Studio 490 stamps. Here is the card that I made:
I die cut a flower shaped card and covered it in vintage papers.
I stamped various Studio 490 stamps and coloured them in using distress ink before cutting them out.
I die cut a Tim Holtz banner and stamped a greeting to it, attaching it to the card with brads.
I finished the card off using decorative pins and a resin rose.

Thank You Cards
Some of you may have read my updates on Twitter and Facebook over the last couple of weeks. After 17 years and 50 weeks I am leaving Sainsbury's and my role as HR Manager. An very exciting opportunity arose with a non-retail company and I was the lucky applicant to get the job!
It means that I will no longer work with some of the amazing people that I have met over the years, although I will stay in touch with them.
Today was my very last HR meeting and I was spoilt with cupcakes, flowers and lots of presents. I nearly shed a tear, but tried to stay strong... 2 more days to go in store.
So, what better way to say goodbye than through cards. Here are 2 of the cards that I have made:
For this card I used the fabulous 'Everything Eleanor' set from Stampin' Up.
Firstly I stamped the swirl randomly on the background card using pink ink. Using the same ink I stamped the flower onto pink card 3 times and cut out.
I stamped the label in green ink and cut this out. The phrase was stamped in black archival.
I overlapped 2 lengths of ribbon before attaching everything to the card using silicone gel.
For the second card I used 2 different stencils and pounded distress inks through them.
The main image is from Studio 490 and was stamped in coffee archival. The footprints and phrases are also from a Studio 490 set and are stamped in black and vermilion archival.
I finished the card using an Ideology tag.
I am sure the recipients will like them.
Thanks for looking....
