Louis Vuitton Handbag Card

Hi everyone,
Today I made my first handbag card. The young lady I gave it to loves designer handbags and this was just perfect. I found the template and tutorial here...only I altered it to make it bigger and to open from the top instead of the bottom.
She loved her card :)

Video Boy

Hi everyone,
September was such a busy month and just last week we headed off to the Gold Coast for our family church conference...RUBICON.

The day we left was also my son Andres' birthday. He turned 22. He's definitely into his video games and recently purchased the PS4 to add to his collection of consoles. That's why I picked this Mo Manning digi stamp called video boy to make his card with. He liked it :)

Resting Dude

Hi again! This is a first for me...2 posts in one week!
I'm finally allowing the creativity to flow and making time for something I love so much.
Today's card is for a friend's 20th Birthday. I always look for digital images that in some way reminds me of the person I'm making the card for. Well this guy is really good with computers and I found this digi stamp 'Resting Dude' from Sans Design. I've never coloured such a big scene and was a little scared to add sky and clouds so I left it white. Maybe next time I'll give it a go. I've signed up for Alyce's skin and hair class which I know will help me improve my colouring.

Good morning all you crafters!

Happy Birthday Destiny!!!

Hello everyone,

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter break :) I love holidays but the problem is...they go too quick!
My card today is for a special young lady who is turning 18. Destiny is currently doing a photography course and when I stumbled across this digital image, it reminded me so much of her. It even looks a bit like her. So of course I just had to buy this digi stamp called 'Jess taking pictures' from Jess College Fund and I'm also entering her into their challenge. The theme is 'Favourite Embellishment'. 

Embellishment

A decorative detail or feature added to something to make it more attractive.

My favourite embellishment is 'rhinestones'. I love adding sparkle to my cards. I'm really hoping to win because their prize is 36 Copic Sketch Stamping Marker set. Anyway, here is my card.
