Puppy Louis

Hi all and thank you to Amanda at Once Designer Jewellery for your enquiry about the handbag cards, I've now put them in my Folksy shop at £1.75 for anyone who's interested, Folksy can be reached by the badge on the left ;-).
A busy day today rushing around but managed to get a couple of cards made, these were for special order but are ones I can easily re-produce and personalise if required.The first one features Louis's puppy photo again, this time in turquoise, my favourite colour, it's too sweet a photo to only make one card with! I was then fiddling about with bits and bobs as you do, and came up with the flower card, made using Jiminey Cricut for the flower, this one looks better in real life as it's quite textured with the ribbon and the flower.
Hey ho - hope you like and call back again - I registered on Craftjuice today and am trying to work out what goes on - when I can work out how I'll post the link here and you can see for yourselves. Have a lovely evening, see you soon :-)

Puppy Card

Hi all!

Thank you to the new followers, it's great to see you and hi to Teresa in the USA!
Well have been having a play again with my Cricut machine (pronounced Crickut) and I love, love love it! I still only know the basics but what fun...I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to lose track of time completely and forget all about housework and cooking!
I made several cards and this one I put into the Folksy shop. It's a personalised photo card using customers own photo, this one features the cutest puppy ever, Little Louis, as a sample card



I used Jiminey (ie the name I gave the crickut) to cut the scallopped squares, the flowers, and the tags at the top. Some of it was a bit fiddly and took a bit longer than usual but I think it all goes together okay. I know it may be a bit busy for some but all the soft pinks and greens go well together and again, gotta have a bit of bling to finish off! Pet photo's will work well but any subject really as long as it's a reasonable quality picture.
Next project a Get Well card for the Ted Range so have to have a photo shoot tomorrow with my old 'Big Ted' sporting bandages. Yes, I know ... I've got to get out more!! Bye for now.
