Downton Abbey


Here are some Downton Abbey cards I designed for Fat Cats Card Corner.
The dies are Crafters Companion and I'll list the dies used below each card.


Sue Wilson Swiss Background
and the Delicate Hearts embossing folder.
the leaves are Sue Wilson Laurel Leaves, flowers made with the Sue Wilson Petite Peony cluster Die


Only one die used for this card and that is the Sue Wilson Swiss Background, a beautiful die set.
A bit of lavender flowersoft and a piece of ribbon to finish.



I cut an aperture from the plum coloured card and then embossed it with the Downtown Abbey embossing folder.The flower display I made with the Impression Obsession bouquet set.


This time I have heat embossed the Thistle EF with gold embossing powder onto green card and cut it into three sections.
Image I used is one from the Downton Abbey Die-cut Toppers A4 set of 2 sheets


Downton Abbey Classical Edge Die
Downton Abbey Thistle embossing folder.
Cottage Cutz 3D Flower 4

After cutting the Classical Edge Downton Abbey dies.
I stamped the Teapot and cup and saucer set from the Time for Tea Downton Abbey Stamp set into position and heat embossed them with gold, I then added glossy accents to them I also used a couple of pieces from the Downton Abbey Die-cut Toppers A4 set of 2 sheets and I hand cut a few embossed thistles from the Downton Abbey Thistle embossing folder.

A Baby and a Droid (Card)

I had a request for a baby card, sex of baby not known, which makes it difficult to come up with a colour scheme to use, the last one I did for the same lady I did in lemon so my choice this time was lavender.
I used a Nellie Snellen pontura card from which I cut the front and layered it onto the lavender card, white, lavender and finally the white card base.
The welcome banner is a Joy Crafts Die, the little flowers are from the mini EK Success Retro Flower Punch.


The next card request was for either a Star Wars or Ninja theme, I went for Star Wars and found an R2D2 colouring image on the internet which I coloured with my copics, I added some balloons cut with a free die that came with a craft magazine, the background is the Couture Creations Entangle embossing folder.
