Zarha's Birthday

My neice turned 3 and I needed a very quick last minute card.  So it was very quick, using the top note die, elegant lines embossing folder, butterfly embosslit, rich razzelbery satin ribbon, in colour card (Blushing Bride), Regal Rose and Rich Razzlebery butterflies and the black staz on ink on the Regal Rose cut out with the Itty Bitty Punches flower.  A very simple but effective card in 5 mins.

I am the card maker for the family so if I am making one card, I usually have to make at least one more.  So this is the other card I made for Zarha.   Using the Pony Party stamp set on Whisper White stamped in Staz on ink, Perfect Plum cardstock with Blushing Bride for the background and the Butterfly embosslit.  The background has been punched with the Eyelet Border punch to give a nice effect.  The card was embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots folder through the Big Shot which is so cool - you have to get one if you don't already!  Basic Rhinestones finished off the butterflies.  Markers from retired stock were used to colour the Pony in, and once again the Staz On ink with the Calendar Alphabet & Numbers was used once again to write her name, cut out with the Itty Bit Punch flower as well.   Kids by 3 usually can recognise their name and it makes the card just that little bit more special with their name on it.

Both cards were last minute and didn't take that long to make and made Zarha's day.
