Less is More Week 11 Acetate, oh! and me!

 

I have decided to enter a challenge! Not another one!

that must be about 3 this year!!, yes I am a bit slow at the challenges but I am definately going to make an effort this year, however, I'm not really impressed with my effort but I will give it a whirl anyway.
I am entering into the Less is More Acetate challenge as I really like LIM cards.

I punched out 3 flowers with acetate and ran over them with my embossing tool towards teh tip of the flower to give shape and the whiteness, I would have preferred a larger flower but I dont have a big enough punch and would have also liked a white sentiment , but didn't have anything to do that with either, so I have used a swirly peel off and a lush brad for the centre of the flower, a wee bit white ribbon and that was me , think its a wee bit too plain but it was a first attempt with acetate for something other than for 3d glass effect!

Wee close up of the flower from the side.

 

Also finally got a picture of me on my blog , at long last , and I dont resemble a plum at all!! I don't think I do anyway! My son took the picture for me , he's a clever wee boy!

Thanks for looking and any comments you leave a very much appreciated , now I must go off to bed!...K xx

Male Retirement Card

 

My friend needed a special retirement card and wanted it themed due to his job,(no prizes for guessing what it is!) think this fitted the bill! excuse the pun!

I downloaded the hat from the internet, cut it out and glossed it. 

Used my nesties and my MS punch and the paper is their own paper from my local supplier, sentiments on the pc and a few bits of card candy.

Thanks for looking and any comments gratefully rec'd...........K xx

Mothers Days & Spring Go Together

Had 5 mother's day cards to make this year!2 for my friend , 1 for my other friend and 1 each for my one and MIL, hubby was chancing it and asked me to make another one , I asked who for and he said for myself, sent him packing on that one!!! the one above was for my Mil and the next one was one of my friends ones, used the same layout but used different papers and colours , I forgot to photograph my mums one but it was done with light green paper.
