Gift Box

Hi everyone,....
This is completely different to my other crafting/cards, just felt like a change, l had in my stash this
small round box that was plain white in colour, ready for decorating, so using more from my stash
l chose some lovely pale pink paper and partnered it with a stronger pink for contrast.  I punched out
a ribbon border, using my Martha Stewart punches and  used my nesties for the top, finshing off with
some toning flowers made by using my set of Creative Expressions stamps. I lined the inside with the
same contrasting pink paper, and added tissue and tablet of guest soap, this l hope to sell at my stall at my local hospital....Pic. of the inside below

Olly's 21st

Good Morning everyone, hope everyone is o.k.
      This card was made for my Grandson's 21st, as he is at Uni. taking Game design studies, l got my thinking cap on and found this set of stamps from Dimensions.  Starting with a 8 x 8 scalloped square card l stamped text on the background and tinted the edges with Back Soot distressing ink, and also stamped 21 over the silver mirror card with black stazon then ran it thro my cuttlebug with the dotty folder. The images were all stamped onto black card and embossed with silver, then cut out individually and placed on top.  He was chuffed to bits with it (it was his birthday on Thurs.)
                  Hope you have enjoyed looking at my blog, and any comments would be gratefully received....thank you.

Liverpool Fan

Hi everyone,
     This card was an order from a friend and l was asked to make it for a fanitical Liverpool fan, l googled the photo's etc. and used my Docrafts digi designer to make the background. Then using my
Cricut machine l cut out his name and age, matt and layered onto silver mirror card to complete the card. Not the usual kind of card l make but as it was requested l agreed.
     Thank You for visiting my blog, any comment would be gratefully reaceived...

Wedding Day

Hi,
 Hope everyone  is o.k. and happily crafting. My new Great-Granson has arrived, and what a whopper he was, weighing in at 10lbs. 5ozs. Thankfully both Mum and baby are well, they've named him Ethan.....anyway back to my blog.
I made this card an A5 , and used one of my Brass stencils for the corners and cut sections out, therefore enabling me to put underneath some red card. The topper was a stamp from Crafters Companions Swalk range, coloured in with my Spectrum Noirs, then l finished off with the tag with text in and once again matted onto the same red. Hope you like what you see and have enjoyed visiting my blog..Thank You.   Any comments would be really appreciated.

Rosie's 17th Birthday

Hello everyone, don't die of shock, l did say l would be more attentive to my blog,
This is another card from the same C.D. of the last post, and yes it is for the other twin grand-daughter, Rosie, and once again l have used itmes from a Hunkdorey kit,and attached a pocket on the inside for her treat. Think we all have stash from days gone by and my new years resolution it to use them up and also "play" with other items previously bought.  Hope you have enjoyed taking a look at my blog and if you have any comments they would be greatly appreciated....Thank You.

Abi's 17th Birthday

Good Morning everyone, sorry but l have really been neglecting my blog, but l intend to be more dedicated, and hope you will forgive me.
This card was made for one of my grand-daughters, who is a twin, l made it from a new C.D. that
l have bought recently....HOTP -100 movable parts cards. The original was a little small so l adjusted
it and it finished off being 8" x 6" and l used card and toppers from one of the kits from Hunkydorey,
l usually give them money so thought that the pocket inside would house that.
Hope you have liked what you have seen and thank you for visiting my blog, any comments would be
acceptable...thank you

Anniversary Card

 
Hi Everyone, Sorry l know it been a while since last posting but not had a very good few weeks, Mum was poorly just after Xmas, and now the past two weeks l've had a pesky cough, but hopefully that is coming to an end....so onwards and upwards as they say.
This card is one that l have made using my new Tonic die set that l bought before Xmas, using the Cornflower die and white set with a topper that l found in my stash, the base matt is pale pink, and using my Cuttlebug All in one set l embossed the corners, finished off with pale pink gems for the flower centres...job done. very quick card.I made an envelobox for it so as to protect the flowers.  Hope you have enjoyed taking a look at my blog, and any comments you have would be welcome
