Violinist

Hi there everyone, .....here's my post for today....
This is a 6 x 6 card and the main background is one l have chosen from one of my 6 x 6 paper
stacks, then with choosing this colour l coloured the digi-stamp with my Spectrums keeping the
same shades with darker colour for the texture folds. This was then cut out using one of my dies
and then matted onto some silver mirror card. The flower and leaves were made from paper clay,
l left the space at the top right hand corner, as this is ideal for personalisation, which l am asked
for quite often on my stall.
I do hope you have enjoyed visiting my blog, any comments you have would be very welcome.
Thank You.

August 2014

Hello everyone, here we go for my post for today....
Back to card-making, this is made using the August project from Little Claire, and everything came included as usual, except for the colouring materials. As this was on the project sheet and it really struck me a a lovely design, so l thought l would follow suit. The colouring was done by using my Spectrum Noirs as normal, l love this card as it could be used for any occasion ideally to cheer any person up.
Hoped you have liked what you have seen and please feel free to leave any comments.

Baubles

Hi there everyone here's yet again something different.....
These projects were made using two of the Hunkydorey kits, and l really enjoyed making these, so simple but very effective l think.
Not a lot l can say really as these came with the instructions and was made by just scoring the many circles, folding and gluing together, the ribbon was added just before you attach the whole bauble together. The ones above were the gold trimmed ones and the below picture was the silver trimmed ones, also in different colours. These are the first items l've made for my stall, l do hope my customers like them.
Thank you for stopping by to view my blog, and any comments you have would be very welcome.

Floral Wreaths

Hi everyone, hope you are still getting the lovely weather where you are,
Here's my post for today.....
This is completely different to what l usually do but l did enjoy making these, these two wreaths were from the Create and Craft members freebie, only postage to be paid. There was the two circles and the heart, you will find these pictures below. Everything came in the kits, including the die-cut flowers, ribbon and some card candy. Making these was such a lovely change from card-making.
 Thank you for visiting my blog today, any comments you have would be most welcome.

Cottage Garden

Good morning everyone, hope you are enjoying the lovely sunshine....
here's my post for today....
This card is....yes another A5 landscape one, l do like this size and also my 6 x 6, anyway here we go ... the background is a lovely shade of peach, and the next layer is a pale green that l ran through my Ebosser, using the small flower folder. The main topper is from Flower Soft, and is decoupaged, and matt onto the same peach card as the background. I had some of the flower soft in a pink mixture, and some purple, just to give a little highlight. I added the two tags with the text.
Many thanks for visiting my blog and do hope you have enjoyed what l have posted, any comments would be very welcome.

Blue Fairy

 Hi there everyone, here's my post for today....
I started with an A5 landscape white card and rounded the corners....l then found some of the lovely pale blue paper and using my Tonic border punches l made the lacy edges for the inner side.
The topper is one of my digi-stamps, and coloured with my Spectrum Noirs in shades of blue, then cut out using my dies, and matt it onto some silver mirror, l know it looks like gold but l promise you it is silver, also the swirl. Finished off with two flowers also made from a Tonic product, petal pairs.
Thank you for visiting my blog, please leave your comments.

Tattered Lace floral

Hi here's my post for today.....
As l have absolutely loads of dies, l have told myself l really must use them more, so my card for today is one l have very recently made. Once again l chose to use an A5 landscape white card, and the background is a very pale blue piece of card, l left this plain as I didn't want to distract from the main design. I started by embossing the smaller centre piece with a floral design, the main floral die is one off one of the Tattered Lace magazines, l then coloured it using my Spectrums, and placed it pretty central. After looking through my corner dies l found this one and used a similar blue for these. Think card would be good for any occasion.
Many thanks for stopping by, l would love to hear your comments.
