some new cards and blog candy !

hiya everyone ,here is a couple of cards for some crafty friends over on cardz and scrapz this one was for Aideen and i know she loves altered stuff , tim holtz and distressed look , so i went with this " vintage grundge llok for her

the backing paper is an old map image i had which i tore up and crumpled an inked the edges , i stuck it dowm and inked it agin , added embossing powder and glitter , the name scroll on the side is hand made too similar to the backing paper and the flower is handmade by me too x Aideen said she loved the card
the second card was for Mary

i got my cuttle bug out and embossed the backing card added the die cut flourishes , topper and some bling ( i love me some bling !)and some purple ribbon too . i love doing these cards for the birthday club it is great fun to make cards for other crafters
on a different note now , i just had to post about this cute blog i follow , liz and her bears are having their first birthday tomorrow and they have some great candy to give away , but apart from the candy ( which is awesome ) but her bears are toooo cute so head over and say hi and join in her monthly challenge too .


i will be back tomorrow with some projects i have been working on , thanks for stopping by and happy crafting
