And finally...I've managed to make a few cards

Good morning everyone, I hope you are all warm, safe and well in these very wintry conditions. We actually had some sun here yesterday and no extra snow. I live in a cul de sac so it's never gritted and the road is a rutted mass of ice still!
I am so pleased with myself because I have finally come out of the wilderness and been able to make some cards so here is the first one :o)


The image is my own photograph feathered, mirrored in PSP, then sentiment added using Viner Hand font, then printed onto Papermania textured card. 
Image and mat cut with Go Kreate dies, leafy swirl cut with Cheery Lynn die.
Base card is white linencard folded and cut to A5 :o)

Beautiful. I love your photographic cards. My stupid computer is 8 years old and an apple mac, so I cannot get any photo shop programmes to work as I would love to do this, although I do use loads of ink already - so maybe not.....

Love this card Jackie... tho I'm not a lover of butterflies I'm afraid.. dunno why, but I'm a bit phobic about them!! But as long as they're made of paper, they're ok!

Your diecut shapes make it really special!

Hugs
