Birthday Bubbly

I haven't had much time again to make any cards so as usual the best laid plans ...... (for that read "I haven't made any Easter Cards!") However it is a card making chum's birthday this Easter Weekend and so I had to stir my stirrups and make her a card. It is using Pink Petticoat Lola Rose Bubbly (Just as well the PP lady Liz keeps coming out with new one's as I lost the first lot when my computer crashed - blessed zip downloads making me want everything straight away and not backing it up!)The joy for me of using image stamps is that I can colour them on the computer using PSP which is what I have done here. Colouring with pens, paint and crayons is not my strong suit but I love that if I make a mistake in PSP I can just undo and start again. I have picked out the colours and prints to colour in the image from the Lola's Boudoir collection (thankfully I have that on CD!) and I have used the same for the background paper. I have made the bath bubbles sparkly using Icicle Stickles, although I was a bit sparing with them as my first attempt made the ink run :( The Sentiment was of course computer generated too and the ribbon came from Liberty's

Computer drawn Card from Toni

Toni sent me the lovliest card adorned with her own computer drawn graphics, I love it, the figure has that Bella/Lola-Rose feel to it with the match-stick arms. The supercute thing is that as the card was a thank you note for sending Toni a copy of "Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death" the figure (Toni) is holding a copy of that exact book. Great attention to detail Toni :)

I have some more hand crafted cards that I have received from Pam, Sadie and Linda but I am in such disarray (no change there then) I need to find them and photograph them. I hope to do this over the next couple of days.
