Making cards freebie

I made this card today for a work colleague who will be retiring this Thursday.
The card has been made using some freebies from making cards magazine July issue.  Girls just wanna have fun collection. I just love the bright and funky colours and the retro feel, great that you can add your own text in the speech bubble too!

Messy play

Today I have been playing with my new spectrum noir Aqua tint inks.  I used the salt technique and the cling film technique.  I used different card stock from watercolour card to centura pearl and Sheenas  stamping card.



Once dried I sat and played with some rubber stamps.  I used sheena Douglass stamps and visible image stamps.

Can't wait to make them into cards now.

Beginners card

Using my new todo machine, what better way to make a beginners card than getting to grips with the foiling and die cutting of this machine.  Very pleased with my first results.
