 Big birthday this month for my Aunt in UK, had to do a special card for her...Embossing folders and heat embossing on top, then stamping white embossing


Using free gifts from SCP Issue 161



Another special one Wedding card made for two portuguese friends (we're going to the wedding as well should be fun), freebies again from SCP Nº161 and heat embossed butterflies on acetate 





Francisca's contribution to our crafting this weekend for her cousin later this month, inspired by a card she saw in Die-Cutting Essentials Nº21, changed it up a bit with patterened papers and WRM mini punched numbers double heat embossed to make them stand out more and a few stars to finish.
