Two More Newspaper Cards - Hope You're Not Sick of Them!

The above card was for my niece’s best friend, my brief was - must be OTT, lots of girly, sparkly, glitzy things, likes trendy bags!
I’ve used a packet of  3D stickers I got from Penkridge Market (Staffordshire). I had the last few packs, but I wish I could find some more as they have been brilliant for similar cards.  I have also added a few stars and extra gems to the bags.

The second card was for a colleague at work. Her daughter had just started modelling and she asked if that could be included in the theme. 
I asked for a photo that I could include and built around it. I made an extra copy of the photo, cut it out and used it  as a very simple decoupage layer. 
The camera is a sizzix die cut I got from e-bay,and the background paper is from “Love Elsie” which I love and again wish I could find some more of.

    What fabulous cards - my niece is 17 this year, I think I'll borrow your idea, if you don't mind.

    Great cards--love your ideas! As a jewelry artist I have lots of jewelry making tools, but not so many paper art tools. I'll have to pay a visit to the craft store!

    I love your newspaper cards Helen and would never get fed up of you sharing them - they are all inspired and extremely individual and personal.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
