Retirement Card: Faldaree Deirdery Dunderton

And here is the third page in the acrylic album retirement card, featuring Faldaree Deirdery Dunderton from Dr Digi.  Coloured with Promarkers and kept largely to the colour scheme of the papers.  Papers, liquid pearls and ribbon from my stash.  Another page next week!

Making Cards - Part 3

Morning!  Here I am with the third and final installment of my recent Making Cards spread!  This time I've used Faldaree Deirdery and coloured her up with Promarkers.  I've also added UFO by means of a strip of acetate and the sentiment is from the Mothers Day Sentiment Sheet 01

I've recycled an old road map for the base and used a circle die folded in two as the rocker.  Charm and embroidery thread from my stash.

Faldaree Deirdery Dunderton

As with any restructuring at work, there are people who move on.  I've made quite a few leaving cards recently and here is one made for someone who is very active and walks a lot, not just in the UK but all over the world.  I've used Faldaree Deirdery Dunderton from Dr Digi and coloured her with Promarkers.

The vintage map is from my stash and I've added a kraft card banner cut from a Sizzix die plus arrows and sentiment from little X Cut dies.

Faldaree Deirdery

I made this card for a work colleague's Birthday who was not amused with the thought that there were snakes on Anglesey when she went walking with her family!

Faldaree Deirdrey from Dr Digi has been coloured with Promarkers and I've added her to the old road map with foam pads.  I managed to find a page with Anglesey on it so it was perfect!  I made the sign and the grass is a Clearly Besotted die (which I think is retired as its no longer on the website)

On Your Retirement - Part 1

As I mentioned last week, I've been busy making cards for work colleagues who are leaving. This particular card is one of a kind and is for someone I've worked with for quite a number of years and there is nothing that she doesn't know - she's the typical go-to person in Finance!

So it can only be fitting that her retirement card is something to remember (and its already giving the office giggles when they are signing it!)

So I proudly present, What To Do On Your Retirement, Part 1 - Go For Long Rambling Walks....

Faldaree Deirdery from Dr Digi sets the tone perfectly! Come back next week, same time, same place for the second installment!

I've used Promarkers to colour plus Echo Park Summerday papers; a Sizzix die cut tag and a handwritten sentiment. I've also used an X Cut die and a Marianne Creatables for the grass.
