Mother, Daughter Time

I have always wanted my daughter to join me and craft when she is home from University and this week it finally happened.  She has so many friends with 21st birthdays that a lot of cards were needed.

She doesn't have a lot of confidence and so the first card she picked all the stamps how it was to be designed and the colours to use, but then on the second card she actually agreed to colour in the image...baby steps but it is a start!

Here is what we made.

JW Shopper

She loved this stamp by Penny Black called La Soiree 4163L and chose the dress colours based on her friends actual dress colour for her party, and as she works for and loves Jack Wills clothes she chose the bag colours to match!  The Balloons were numbered using Penny Black's Charms 30-173 transparent set and the background stamped using Delicate Pattern cling stamp 40-047. The Matts for this card were created using Spellbinders 5 x 7 Matting Basics A S6-001 & B S6-002.

Dog Walker

This one she chose the  Fashion Leader 40-235 cling stamp as her friend has a little dog and used Charms 30-173 and delicate pattern 40-047. The matts for this card were created using Spellbinders Grand Squares LF-126

Both designs were coloured using Copic markers and stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I hope that she will want to craft again with me soon.

Hugs Cathy
