The DT were very kindly given some images to ply along with. I chose Deer1 and printed it straight on to some brown cs die cut it and heat embossed the edges (well Ria did that bit) with some snowflake embossing tinsel. Paper is from First Edition 'Wild at Heart'. Added a peel off sentiment which ha been framed using a metal frame. Kept it nice a simple as it is a Birthday/anniversary card for my other half for today and he doesn't do fussy!

The DT were given some fabulous images to play along with but this time I used an image I already had (I have a few! lol) it's called flower teapot and I've used Copics, Chameleons and SN Sparkles to colour.  Papers are from an s.e.i. kit called Spring.  I dry embossed the background paper then realised I'd put in the wrong way round!

Our sponsor very kindly gave the DT some great images to play along with.  I chose Cookies Anyone? Isn't she cute?  She is coloured with Copics & Chameleons and a bit SN Sparkle.  The tag and image are cut using the Cricut and I thought she deserved a box to be attached to which was lso cut on the Cricut.  Papers are MME Cosmopolitan.  The bow is a Tim Holtz sizzix die, a liitle bit of organza ribbon and a pearl to finish off, et voila...
