Your Cards

Emily O’Neill takes a selection of stamps and designs this card, perfect for a shopaholic.

Emily used gloss card and the resist technique to create the background pattern.

The main picture was stamped in black and coloured with Twinkling H20 watercolours.

This was then mounted onto black card as was the text. A small peel-off birthday greeting added the final touch.

A quilling first: This beautiful card is Gwen Green's first attempt at quilling based on a design created by her friend.
DIY decoupage: Marian Rutherford created her own decoupage design using copyright free images from a CD.
Hat trick plus 1: This fashionable design by Janet Pointon features four hats die-cut from a variety of coloured and patterned papers.
Super scraps: Gillian Allen made this super card using scraps of wool left over from other craft projects.
