October Offerings

This October, I have been busy
making all my Christmas cards.
But I also had two events to create for.
First up, my sister's Wedding Anniversary.

She likes clean & simple.
I think I achieved it!
Stamps used were all free from
various magazine covers.

 This is the inside.
I made the frame from another
magazine freebie.

 The other event to create for was a
friends birthday on 02 November.
I decided on a detailed card which 
took quite a bit of time to put together.
However, I enjoyed it & would do
someting similar again.

Here is the first view, 
the card when closed.

 This next view is when opened up.

 This final view is sideways on
so you can see the other trellis work.

Materials;
Crate Die - Stampin' Up.
Trellis, greenery & flowers on trellis
arched embossed area & image behind 
all from Special Edition of
die cutting Essentials
All other stamping (teapot/
table/chair etc) free cover magazine gifts.
I used a large die cut circle to
place on the back for my birthday message.
All floral clusters in the crate are stuck in on acetate strips.
 I am very pleased with the finished result. 

I am also very pleased with the 38 Christmas cards
I have made so far. (6 to go)
Hope to share these at the end of the 
first week in December once sent.
