Babushka Cards

Did you know - Vintage Port takes 40 years to reach maturity.

I sat down and had a good card afternoon yesterday, producing 8 more samples of Babushka Cards for the web-shop. I made 4 gift tags and 4 full size cards. I will be e-mailing out my samples and see what happens. Anyway I wanted to share some photos of them here.....


The 4 gift tags



2 of the large/normal size cards, both are lined inside, the yellow one I used a star punch and shimmery lemon ribbon, with the doll raised in the center. The black card I just went with a striking black and white them, raising the doll in the middle, but at an angle, opposite to the white.




The last 2, on the green card I added some red and gold ribbon, and highlighted the doll with some gold glitter. The other card features 4 flowers punched out with the inside layer showing through, some distressed black paper and the doll raised on top.

Fingers crossed my designs are liked!

snails and cards

An average snail moves at a rate of 58cm per hour

Started work on 8 more Babushka Card samples for the web-shop - if they like them, they are willing to place an order for 100 gift cards and 100 greeting cards - that will keep me BUSY, but, will be a nice boost for me - getting my name/designs out there.

Look for my fan page coming soon to Face Book as well!
