Here is a special fun card that was made for the 80th birthda of one of my Aunt's in Sri Lanka. No problems getting it there in time this time.....but I did send it off about 4 weeks early.....just to make sure :) You can't quite tell from this photo, but I have used some of Stampin' Up!'s new foiling range......and the technique I did in the Thank You card I recently shared. It was a little fiddly getting all those little pieces in, but I think it turned out really well :) Sing out if you want details of any of these products

I can't quite remember why I made this card. I do know someone set a challenge to use patterned paper in our cards. This raised effect is something that I love to do......so I decided to grab a large die, cut it out a few times out of white cardstock and also out of this patterned paper.....and then put them together. I'm very happy with how this came together. It's good to have Thank You cards on hand when needed. This one went to a lovely local JP who helped me out a few times when I needed to get some paperwork sorted out in a hurry.

I've been a little quiet over the last few weeks, partly due to my getting my entries sorted for the Royal Adelaide Show....but also as I offered to get my fellow classmates together for our 40th reunion....yikes!!!!! Anyway, we caught up this weekend just gone, and as I had some much needed help along the way, I thought I would do some cards for the ladies who went the extra mile for me with some of the leg work. I hope I didn't miss anyone!!!!
I can't take full credit for the design of these cards though, as I based them on cards done by . I needed to adjust the measurements a little from the US size, but once sorted, they were very quick to make......my favourite type of card :)

Here is the other card that was sent to Sri Lanka a few weeks ago. I heard last week that the cards finally reached the destination....a few weeks late for that first card, and a week early for this one. Oh well, that was definitely a big relief to me.
I had fun having a play with a new set here

Apart from a little bit of a mis-stamp....oops, i am really happy with how this relatively quick card has come out

Quite a few cards on the go at the moment. The 2 lucky recipients are 2 ladies who I have known for many years, who share the same birthday....a few years between them though. There is also a third friend, actually a friend of Mum's, but she passed a few years ago. All are people I have known for many, many years.
These 2 cards were after a play with some new foiling dies from Stampin' Up!. I unfortunately have not managed to get hold of the new foiling machine released by Stampin' Up!, but I decided to at least have a play with some of the items until I can get it. I was lucky enough to have actually bought a different foiling machine a few years ago, but the new one has some useful features also that will tempt me to upgrade.
Items Used:

and a unfortunately recently retired embossing folder, All in a Row

Thank you to for the initial idea, tweaked a little by a card I saw online demonstrating the new foiling system

I'm so sad. This is a year of special birthdays amongst my family in Sri Lanka.....and this was card 1 that I did and sent. I had just sent some important paperwork via registered post there a few days before, and was charged around the $33 dollar mark, but didn't feel that the extra expense was necessary for birthday cards......but it has been about 3 weeks, and the card still has not reached it's destination :( I wish there was a cheaper option to track our international mail Post
Anyway, the card has been shared with the recipient now, quite late for his birthday, but I gather I picked a good subject for him, based on the reactions :)
When I see sets that I can see being good for certain people, I grab them. This was a set from Spellbinders Paper Arts designed by . I've got a few of her other cars to do still....so stay tuned :)

Another card done. This time I was inspired by a lovely Canadian demonstrator, . She made a card using a style I had seen before, but never really tackled.....called a Faultline card. I have decided to play with some of my retired papers, and a recent set, . Another card to add to my collection :)

Last week, I heard that one of the team from Lift (where I do my cancer related exercise) was leaving, and I had to make a card for her. I have learnt over the years that she is a chilli lover, so was very happy that I managed to get this very suitable card knocked up over the weekend. How did I go? I think she liked it :) All products are from Stampin' Up! except for the letter dies. The other stamps and dies are retired though. It's not very obvious from this photo that I almost forgot to take, but the letters in the name are all raised up, as is the thank you background

I've had a few cards on the go lately, and haven't been able to sit and share them here also.....not all can be shared here until they reach their recipients though :)
Shown here are some of the things I have been playing with.
Card 1 is for a couple, who I haven't actually seen for quite a while, but Mum used to regularly make String Hoppers for her back in my school days....So I have very fond memories of her and those days. I've used a bit of a combination of products here.....Stampin' Up! cardstock and inks, champagne flutes are a long retired Stampin' Up! set. There's a bit of hot foiling and a lot of heat embossing.....and I think I like how it turned out
Card 2 is my card to David for our anniversary last week. I think I ended up using all products in this, apart from the cardstock. I'm not totally happy with the colour of the whiskey itself, but as a first play with this set, I think I did OK.
Photo 3 is my ChocoFlan dessert for the family dinner for the anniversary.....Recipe thanks to . Everyone really enjoyed it !!!!
Card 4 is a card that I made a few weeks back for one of the physios at Lift. I heard it was her birthday, and had just received the items to do a few classes using products I don't normally use, with a few teachers I have not followed previously. I have not done all the cards yet, but this was my first attempt.....before fully following a class. Dies and background stencil are from Spellbinders. Inks from Stampin' Up! and cardstock was a mixture of Spellbinders and Stampin' Up!
