If you have arrived here from Valerie's Blog then you are on the right track!!

I have three cards to share with you today!!!
This first card I made for a friend of mine who turned 40 on Friday rides a harley and I thought this Prairie Fairy image was perfect!!



This second card I've made for my mum for her birthday.

 This third card is for no-one in particular!! But isn't he just so cute!!!

I coloured all the images in with Tria markers and have used glitter pens to add a bit of sparkle!! The papers are all scraps from my stash as is the ribbon!!! And I've added embellishments to finish off all the cards!!! The sentiment on the harley card is from Tickled Pink Stamps!!!

 I am the last stop on the hop today so I hope you have enjoyed what you have seen today. But don't forget that there are 4 more days of hopping to do so be sure to head back to Gill's Blog tomorrow to see what the next lot of particpants have created!!
Dont forget to comment on all the blog posts each day to be eligible to win the candy which will be divided up into 3 top prizes.
Thanks for hopping.

    Fabulous cards (as usual) Alethea! I love that motorcycle guy - so cute! and the little guy on the bottom card - the way he sits in the window is amazing (the inside has me awed). The card for your mum is so sweet - I bet she loves it :) Thanks for sharing all these great creations.
