Dance exam

We supported our friend at their dance exam.  I made a box card to celebrate their achievement.

Dies used: Sizzix thinlits plus, Card, Diorama Gatefold #660845;  the dancers are from the Xcut Build a Scene Ballroom #XCU503125 and a star punch.

London

My goodness, it’s been a while since my last post (sorry).

A dear friend of ours was away from home for his birthday.  He was going to be in London for his special day.  It was quite easy to find a theme for his card.

Dies used: XCut - Build a scene London XCU503158, Clouds – brand unknown

Christmas for dancers

As my regular readers know, I am a keen amateur ballroom and Latin dancer. As a result of my hobby , I have a lot of “dancey” friends, so it only seems right to have a dance themed Christmas card.

I used a number of dies from different sets to create this card:

Dancers: Xcut Build a Scene Ballroom #XCU503125; Shape cut into card blank: Sizzix thinlits plus, Card, Diorama Gatefold #660845; Leaves:  Christmas tree set, brand unknown.

Birthday

A friend ours recently celebrated her 65th birthday.  As she is a keen dancer,  I used the Build a scene Ballroom dies from XCut (XCU503125) to create her card.

London

Being a London girl, I instantly fell in love with the Build a scene London dies from XCut (XCU503158)

The aperture was cut  in white card with the Sizzix Framelits Ovals (#657563) and then embossed with the Sizzix Textured Impressions Union Jack folder (#658578)

Ballroom

Friends of ours, keen dancers, recently celebrated their anniversary.

I used the Build a scene Ballroom dies from XCut (XCU503125) to create their card.

 

I used a battery tea light to create some atmosphere.

Variation on a theme – dancers

All these cards were made using the Build a scene Ballroom dies from XCut (XCU503125) and the Cuttlebug D’Vine Swirl Embossing folder (#37-1142)
