Ladies' Night

Two VERY quick CAS cards to share today, which I made at the weekend.  My hubby and I went to an annual Ladies' Night dinner/dance on Saturday.  I woke up in the morning and realised I'd totally forgotten to make cards for the two Chairmen who would be giving a speech to wish them a great evening.  I needed one masculine and one feminine card and I decided to make them very similar.
The die I used is a Tonic die I bought a few years ago in sale, from memory it only cost me 50p!  I attached the die cut to the embossed background.  Five tiny clear gems added a little bling.

I am joining in the following challenges with this card:


I made the masculine card in black and white and used a star embossing folder for the background.   I added three black gems in the corner.

  9. Sounds as if that die was a bargain - you've made two great cards with it. I'm reluctant to buy items with limited use but at that price you can't go wrong!

    1. I've used this die several times already, as we go to the annual Ladies' Night most years. It was the perfect die for me to add to my collection and the bargain price was an added bonus. 😊 xx

  25. I love both of your cards Liz, but what really blows my mind is that you and hubby went to a ladies night dance and you have a ladies night die! lol I love it. Nice job in making for each a man and woman. Love the embossing folders you used on each as well. What a great find and on sale too, can't beat that! Hugs, Brenda
