Golden Wedding
Hi everyone, its getting even closer to christmas now, hope you've all done the shopping etc.
This card is made from a gold mirror 6 x 6 card and l made the main background with using my
Martha Stewart stamp around the page stamps, something else l haven't used very much, stamped
with Versamark ink and embossed with fine detail gold powder, stamped the text the same way,
and then used my Spellbinders/ Marvelous Squares dies to complete the topper, using gold mirror
for the lower layer. Topped off with the gold organza ribbon completes this card, ideal for Golden
Wedding anniversary. I hope you have enjoyed taking a look at my blog, and like what you see.
Any comments are very welcome...Thank You

Calendar wallets
Hi everyone hope you are all getting ready for Christmas, it won't be long now.
Thought l would make a change from posting cards, these are some little wallets l've made
for my craft stall. I got the idea from a Demonstration l attended recently, with the dimensions
l used, its possible to make two out of l piece of A4 card,... four score lines and job done except
for the matting and putting toppers on. I used some from, the Art Deco kit l purchased from
Hunkydory,then added a little notepad and calendar, l think it makes a lovely little gift, ideal for
handbag or pocket.
Hope you like this, and thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.

Christmas Humphrey
Hi everyone, where have all the days gone, there just doesn't seem to be 24 hours in them anymore.
This was a quick card l made from a topper that l had in my stash. Started with an A5 white card, used a green stripey paper for the first matt, embossed some co-ordinations green card with leaves
and then sanded back a little then using a glue pen l edged the leaves with glitter, cut around some of the leaves to enable to tuck the topper under at different areas, matted both onto some red card and added a sentiment, there it is complete, as l said nice and easy.
Many thanks for taking a look at my blog, any comments you have would be appreciated.
