Ikkle87 - that's the same seller that sells the cheap Karen Foster stickers. She has some great stuff and at really good prices.

Wow love the cards Ickle, the cupcake one is lovely! how did you do it?

i just cut a strip of paper and folded it up like you would if you were making a fan. (am rubbish at desriptions and destructions lol) put a dab of glue on the two edges and positioned them on the card so that they looked like cupcake cases, then i drew the shape i wanted for the top of the cupcake and cut about 16 of the shape ( 8 per cupcake but you could use more or less) , used sticky pads to layer them then put a large blob of pva on the top and sprinkled red glitter to make a cherry and then used pva and white irridescent glitter to make icing.

Great cards again Ikkle, you have such a knack of putting colours together!

I made these last night in an attempt to get my Xmas cards started...

Some chipboard shapes and a couple of decoupage. The bottom two are A5 cards and I cheated and bought the pyramid decoupage (?) images ready made.







So I can now finally say I'VE STARTED MY XMAS CARDS :T :j
