Cards I’ve liked lately

December 2, 2010

Here are a few card designs I’ve liked lately…

This is the card I sent my Dad for his birthday, which was in July. He’s a Leo, so I liked this lion for my Dad! This card is by Alice Palace, my favourite card designer in the world EVER!

This is another Alice Palace card, which I sent to my good friend Zaz when her baby boy Dominic arrived, also in July.

Alice keeps a great blog aswell, with lots of interesting bits and bobs, there are always some lovely photos to look at and I love seeing pics of her latest designs, and her cool dog Jemima! – Alice Palace blog

This boxer dog card was sent to me by my best friend, Rachel. The design is by Jacqueline Stanhope.

'Bud' by Jacqueline Stanhope

This is more of a postcard, from another best friend of mine, Anna. A postcard of the Queen, sent from royal Windsor!

The Queen - I wonder why they did not cut around her neck properly in Photoshop?

These two animal cards are by Richard Spare. I bought them to keep for myself, just because I really love them!

I bought this cat card at the Craft Candy Christmas fair last weekend. It’s by Katy Holmes. I also bought another one with a chick on it, but I’ve already sent that one!

    What a lovely collection of cards! I love the Roobarb and Custard one! I like the hedgehog and squirrel ones as well, it looks like an interesting technique, do you know how they were drawn? The Alice Palace birds one is nice too and Katy’s is fab, she’s a great illustrator isn’t she?
    I love nice cards! :D
    Hey it’s your birthday soon isn’t it??! :D
    love
