Taylored Expressions

Inspiration from this week's Taylored Expressions Sketch


and back to more familiar territory - female birthday cards - so it was out with the glitter to embellish all the flowers on the paper background! A tad difficult to see them in the photo though; never mind! :-)

CPS Sketch

A birthday card for my brother based on this week's CPS sketch (CPS113).


Masculine cards are always a little more taxing - no opportunities for glitter and wonderful flowery embellishments!
I've gone for the "minimalist" look. Not sure if that's spelt right ??! anyhow you get the general idea ...


The present is "wrapped" with acetate to accentuate it a bit more - you can see that a bit better in the second photo.
