This is a card I was asked to make for a friend's husband, she was very pleased with it as was I. I used Little Claire stamps. I really like this range of stamps as they are very simplistic, easy to use and help ideas flow very readily. I used some Kraftcard to make an easel card, layered up two different designs of backing papers from my stash. Sectioned these off with matching ribbons and placed my layered, coloured and glossed stamped images in the four sections. For the base of the easel card I used different ribbon and the MAN sentiment from the stamp set and on either side placed a heart shaped button threaded with paper thread on a die cut butterfly and then in a tiny scalloped circle of Kraftcard. I really enjoyed making this card. The ribbons and buttons on this card were bought from Love to Sew which is a new shop in my home town that has a fabulous range of buttons, ribbons and embellishments suitable for card making. I am now a regular visitor to the shop which also gives sewing lessons, children's sewing parties, does alterations and much more and I wish them every success.
