Christmas 2013

Hi all, 

I'm trying out the blogger app on iPhone today, fingers crossed this works!

I have a Christmas card to show you that I made yesterday using spellbinders grand scalloped ovals.

I also used the gold majesty circle die and lala land flower. 

The stamped image is heartfelt creations snowy window scene.

I finished it off with a couple of gems and beaches cut with the Martha Stewart branch punch. 

Thanks for stopping by and for any comments you may wish to leave.

thank you card

wow two posts in one day!

 

this one is for a thank you card.

 

my dil asked me to make a thank you card for her teacher friends who gave her some gift vouchers for her birthday so I thought this woj image would be perfect.

she looked just like when she came home from her spending spree. (only her smile was bigger)

Baby Boy

hi All,

 

i'm here with a baby card today.

for those of you who know me you will know how difficult I found this card to make.

of course I happy for the new mummy and daddy but still find this a heart breaking subject.

 

having said that, I did want to make a nice card so here is my effort

 

as you can see, I still have a blank panel. I'm waiting for the little lad to be named so I can add the details to the card.

(come on mummy and daddy, give him a name)! LOL

 

I used a stamp that I bought from a very kind lady on facebook (I think our path's have crossed for a reason and a friendship has begun).

the stamp is fizzymoon

 

die's used are spellbinders lacy squares

spellbinders lacy circles

spellbinders picot edge circles

lala land heart border

memory box classic alphabet

and Martha stewart heart border punch

 

all from www.oysterstamps.co.uk

 

i'll update this post with a finished photo when the baby has a name and my card is completed properly.

 

thanks for stopping by

spellbinders Fanciful lattice kraft card

hi, Im here today to show you my new spellbinders die set.

its called Fanciful lattice and its a great size, approx. 5x7 inches so perfect for card blanks.

 

I chose my favourite kraft card for this one

 

 

adding white ink makes the frames stand out.

the smaller frame is also spellbinders, decorative labels 8 set and stamped that with justrite grand sentiments stamps using versafine vintage sepia.

 

the flowers are spellbinders bitty blossom set coloured with copics R20 R11and YG91

 

 

 

I mounted the kraft card onto a white blank to give me the tiny white border and because I prefer the inside of the card to be white rather than brown. its just a personal thing.

 

its that time of year again, you know... when its too dark to get good photo, unless you are a great photographer, which I am not so please forgive me for my poor efforts. one of these days I will get round to making a light box to see if that helps. its on my ever growing to-do list. why does that list never get any shorter even though I spend more than half my life crafting!

 

the clock has just chimed for midnight and for those who know me you will know this is my favourite time for cardmaking so guess what I am off to do now? lol

 

back with another card tomorrow.

 

thank you for stopping by.
