WOYWW #252

Good morning, had a busy weekend, gave the mothers day cards to their recipients, so I can now show the cards from the "sneak peak", not yet though, I need to show you my desk for this week first:

This is a card in progress, there is a background being flattened underneath the Cuttlebug and hubbys book (not a very exciting read and no idea how it got into my craft room), then are loads of bits ready for colouring and adding together to make a card. Here is a close up of the "bits"

Eventually all the bits were added together and they became this:

There are a few hints of my normal style, but this was done as a commission, hence the personalisation and the golf theme, it turned out better than I though it would, as I hate doing male cards (unless its just trees) and adding a theme is even harder. The golf tees and wooden leaves have been gilded and the burlap has been die cut using a Tim Holtz Bigz die to match the leaves.

And as promised from last week, here are the finished mothers day cards:

This one uses a sweet poppy stencil as the focus, all the flowers are made from cardboard, those sharp eyed among you will notice that a few more bits were added after the sneak peak from last week - I just got carried away with bling. Here is the other one:

Also with added bling!

Anyway, must dash, a quick look at the other desks on Julias blog and off to work

Bye for now
