My Grandpa's card minus "fluffing"

Spent a lovely hour or so today making this card for my gorgeous Grandpa George's 84th birthday this year.  Sometimes I never know where to start with cards for the boys, so I decided to just start making (giving myself a little internal pep), not "fluff" like I can be known to do, and just get to it.  Little over an hour later, card was done.....outside and in.  Hope you think it's OK?

I used Well Worn DSP, Card stock - Early Espresso, Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla. Stamp Set - Word Play

And the inside, this was just plain white copy paper which I sponged over with Crumb Cake ink.  Love the distressed look it gave. 

That's all for now, happy crafting   Joc x 



Recent cards I've made

Hi all, its been a while since I've shared some cards, and some of these are more than a month old.  I just loved the recent Sale A Bration papers, and even found a new colour which has grown on me - Soft Suede!  I know, many of you loved from the moment Stampin' Up introduced it to the Neutrals colour family, but I guess it just took me a little longer!

Enclosed was a gift voucher.  These come with a coordinated card and envelope.

Dazzling Diamonds added over the entire Decorative Label punch.  For me it just worked!

Inspired from a recent birthday card from Caroline Cassidy.
