Recess Card - Happy Birthday Lexie

Loving these 'recess card'. I saw a tutorial on You Tube and decided to give it a go. They're really not that complicated and I love how they look. Not sure how well they'd fair in the post though(!)
This card is for my crafty friend Lexie. I've scheduled this post so right about now I should be in a Chinese restaurant with Lexie and Co celebrating! "Happy Birthday Lex!"

Side view so you can see the 'recess' a bit better.

Because of how the card is made it doesn't leave you with any choice but to decorate the inside to cover up the 'workings' of the recess.

Let me know if you want me to post a link to the You Tube video I watched so you can have a go to :-)

Another Possible Mother's Day Card

I've made another possible Mother's Day card. I've left the greeting off so I can change the card into a birthday card or something if I change my mind.

Simon Says Challenge

Hello!

Had a weekend of crafting (not a whole weekend unfortunately!) but managed to make quite a few cards which I'll post over the next week. Firstly, I made this card for the Simon Says Challenge which this time is -

• 3 TYPES OF EMBELLISHMENTS
• 2 PATTERNED PAPERS (you can also use coordinating cardstock)
• 1 IMAGE

I took A LOT of inspiration from Martine's card who is on the Simon Says DT. I couldn't help it, her card was so cute!

This card is for a man so I tried to 'butch it up' using string, buttons, a few distressed edges and manly colours. (No flowers here either!)
