They are in chronological order of making - card #1 was for DS's girlfriend's 9th birthday back in February. I asked him what he'd like on the card & was told she likes Hello Kitty & her preferred colour is blue. It's a Craftwork cards Elegance shaped card (6x6). The Hello Kitty is a Sissix Embosslit bought from a forum member on CraftTelly & cut was from Core'dinations Whitewash card. The layers are Spellbinders nesties - Eyelet Squares - & the flowers are again Spellbinders, from the Floral Doily motifs set. I spent a while arranging & re-arranging & was looking for that little something to finish it off. I leant on the table & the waste from the holes from the holographic layer stuck to my hand - BINGO! Sometimes being an untidy crafter pays off LOL As a result of embossing the card in the die before I pushed all the waste out, the dots had little raised centres so which made them look a bit more funky once I stuck them to the card (rather than just like bits of punched out card!)
Card #2 was a direct copy of the design but in pink - this time made for a friend on CraftTelly who's a little bit older than 9 but has a penchant for HK. And pink. Win/win really tee hee. Whilst I was making this one, DD spotted it & made a direct request for the same card for her up-coming (as was at the time) birthday.
I was also part way through making a birthday for my MIL (pic will appear sometime when I've worked out how to get it from hubby's account to mine) which involved a random feather. So she also asked for feathers on her card. Oh & could she also have the flowers I'd made up from the QVC Kanban Chelsea kit..? So DD got card #3, which is 8x8. She liked it!
