With Love Heart

Hi everyone here's my post for today......
This is a 6 x 6 square card, and the background is  silver patterned card, tho its not too  obvious in the photo, the main topper is cut from one of my Tonic dies, they are so beautiful to use, l then cut the plainer heart for the centre, and the added the doves holding the heart that was also a die. Finished off with the small text tag, once again l found this a quick and simple card, l do hope you like it too.
Many thanks for stopping by my blog, and comments you have would be very welcome.

Widow Bird

 

 

Hello everyone, hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather, hope it lasts a little longer, what do you think?...

My post for today is a project l did for my friend Sheila's blog challenge, just check out her challenges they are bril at My craft creations this particular one is a digi-stamp of a Widow Bird, and this was one of my first projects l have coloured with my new Spectrum Noir pencils, quite pleased with the finished effect but am sure l have got room for improvement.

The backing paper is a download, and the spray that l have used to simulate tree branch was one of my dies. This was all matted onto some red card to give some definition. An ideal card for male or female and any occasion.

Thanks for visiting my blog and if you have any comments they would be very welcome.

Lavender Floral

Hi everyone, here's my post for today.....

This is a nice change for me, l don't usually make D.L. cards, but l had this panel left over from one

of my Hunkydorey kits so seeing as it was just the size to for the D.L. card it was quite a quick make, I made the circle topper and layered it onto a larger circle with a lacey edge that was cut using one of my many dies. The flowers and butterfly was made from Martha Stewart clay, and thought that they made the perfect flourish to finish this card off.....Nice, quick and easy.

White and Coral Wedding

Hi, Here's my post for today....

This was a special order l took, and the request was for a Wedding card, and the colours were......White, Coral and Black.

The 8 x 8 base card was made from white Centura pearl card, the background was also pearlescent but coral in colour, trimmed slightly smaller, the upper layer was also used from the same white pearl card and using my Tonic corner dies l cut out the corners, and also the pretty aperture, to enhance the centre image. This image was cut using my Cricut machine, using black pearlescent card. This was finished off by adding their initials and the wording, Wedding Day.

Pink Roses Heart

Hi Everyone, ....

This is yet another change for me, l think its a pleasant idea to try other types of craftwork, l do hope you agree......

I was looking for different ideas for my craft stall, and having seen the plain wicker heart in a shop in my town, it gave me an idea, so this is what l finished up with doing....

I misted the heart first with some white pearlescent ink, and left to dry over night, l then found some delicate pink ribbon and wrapped it around the heart. The handmade flowers were from my stock, l find it helpful if l have a session of making flowers of different colours. These l placed onto the heart and used my Glue gun to fix in place. Finished off with a piece of ribbon to be used to hang it. To make special for a gift l made the box out of white pearlescent card and just placed the four peel-off corners.

Hope you have enjoyed visiting my blog any comments would be appreciated....Thank You

Decorated Bird House

Hi there everyone hope life's treating you all well,

My post today is something very different for me, l do hope you like it.......

Having recently visited my local craft shop l saw that they had one of these on show that was a recent project at one of their workshops, so l thought l would give it a try.

The main project is made from very fine ply wood, and comes with the twine for using to hang it.

I first inked the background and after it was dry l stamped some flowers and a texture stamp with a slightly darker tone of ink. Then using one of my swirl stamps l stamped the image in the bottom left hand corner and used white embossing powder.  The roof part is made from the corrugated centre of some cardboard from a box and inked with the same darker colour. Having some ready made flowers in stock l place these in the lower left hand corner, and finished off with a couple of butterflies also embossed with white powder.

Thank you for visiting my blog and any comments would be very welcome.

Art Deco Easel card

 

Hello everyone,

At my recent Craft stall l had quite a few requests for cards for friends, and l found that this is what l was very low on so l checked in my stash and found some of the Papermania Art Deco kit left over. This kit has been very useful as at the moment Art Deco seems the trend.

I chose to make an easel card this time for a change, so started off with a 6 x 6 white base card and folded it to made the easel. The main background was the themed paper and this was matted onto some black pearlescent card and this was also used to punch out the lacey border, using one of my Tonic punches. The topper was a decoupage image, this was also matted onto the same black card. Toning green ribbon was wrapped over the border, and then this was placed onto some foam pads to give lift as this was used as the stopper. Placed a few of the flowers on top, and having found a text tag with fabulous friend on also placed this onto the upper area.
