Its my mother in laws birthday on Thursday and I have made her these 2 cards, one off us and one off the kids. As they both feature Sugar Nellie images and only 1 piece of patterned paper, I am entering them into this challenge.
This one is off Rich and me, the image is by Leanne Ellis at Sugar Nellie coloured in with whipsers pens and them chalked over using orange & yellow chalks. (you cant really see it in the pic but it does look a lot more distressed IRL .The pape is My Minds Eye and I have dulled it down a bit again with some yellow & orange chalks. Flowers are Prima with a charm from ebay, little pink gems from Papermania and lace from my shop. I have also done some REAL!!!! stitching round the edges of the paper & the image. (Dont know why the flower looks so bright on the pic IRL it actually matches the paper).
This one is off the kids and I have used another SN stamp called Sweet & Sassy, The paper is My Minds Eye an again I have stitched around the edge. Flower is Prima & Poppicraft with a Dovecraft flower brad in centre, Dovecraft organza ribbon and the sentiment I have generated on the computer.

Great cards Lyndsey i love the paper... will you be stocking that in ashmoore? And i can't believe you hand sewed the border, it's very neat. I tried to hand sew on my paper too... but it kind of went wrong! Have not been bloging lately as i have caught a bit of a tummy bug, but i will hopefully get well soon!
