Number Shaped Card

I am feeling very lost at the moment, my Pazzles machine is sick and gone back to the supplier to be looked at. Hopefully, very soon I will have some news of it's return as I have heaps of Christmas cards waiting to be cut!!

In the meantime I have tided my crafting desk, done some blog hopping, and left some comments. Tonight I have looked through some recent photos of projects that I previously have not had time to upload on my blog.

So here is one I made before my Pazzles went to the Doctors!

One of the teachers at school was turning 50 years old a few weeks ago and my colleagues wanted me to make a card for her with the number 50 on the front. I had my reservations because I new the teacher concerned was not happy about the BIG FIVE ZERO!!!

Anyhow I tried, but I am not completely happy with it.

'D' for Doreen

This is a special card for my friend Doreen, it's her birthday tomorrow! She was the first person to get me into card making!! She came to my house a few years ago to show my children how to do Iris folding, which they loved.

We both love using our Cricut machines and always exchange cards whenever there is an excuse! She very kindly lets me borrow her many cartridges for me to play with which I am so grateful for.

For this card I used my CDS to weld the letter 'D' to a rectangle, stamped and coloured my Hero Art cake stamps, added a few pearls and layered all onto some 3 Bugs in a Rug paper.

I haven't made a card for ages as life is fairly busy but I hope you like it and thanks for looking.

Happy Birthday Doreen.....may your birthday be sprinkled with fun! (stamped words inside).
