A Blessing

hello, I thought I better catch up with my blog posts, im slacking again!

 

so here is todays card.

I've used silver card which is so not like me but I think its worked well for this one.

 

I used grand labels 23 which I love and my favourite flower dies which are Heartfelt Creations Delicate Asters.

 

the swirls are Couture Creations and the lovely sentiment is from Our Daily Bread's 'Friendship' collection and the frame is a sizzix embossing folder.

 

all available from Oysterstamps.

 



Apple Tree

hello,

i'm here to show you another card. this time I've used mostly Impression Obsession dies

from oysterstamps

 



this isn't a very good photo, i'll try to replace it when the light is better. (its raining again here)

 

the inspiration for this card came from my friend Abby, she sent me some lovely little white brads so I decided to colour them with pens to make them look like little apples.

(think i'll do cherries next time)

 

I used I.O dies Fence, bare tree and branch.

the cat is a poppystamps die.

 

I couldn't bare to through away the small length of fence that I had to snip off so I used it on the ribbon, hmmm is that 'bright' or just 'tight'? lol

 

right, im off to finish a scrapbook page now. oh I do love crafty days!

 

thanks for stopping by,

JustRite

hello,

 

I'm here to show you the card I made today using a lovely JustRite stamp

 

 

the stamp is called Fleuriste Newsprint Background stamp.

 

I've coloured it with copic markers but it really is very easy to colour.

 

I've used blue and brown cardstock and a blue bow to finish it off. very quick and simple card.

 

thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday Izzy

Happy Birthday to a special little girl, Izzy.

she was 1 year old yesterday.

 

Her mummy is my good friend sarah (ss73 on docrafts)

 

sarah is doing a good job because Izzy is such a happy smiley little girl.

 

here is the card I made for her

 

 

poor photography again sorry.

how can I have such bad photo's when I have such a talented husband?

I really need to talk him into taking my blog photos for me in future. hmm like that's gonna happen! lol

 

anyway, back to my card,

I used a cute little hanglar image and coloured it with copics.

 

I also added some glitter to her wings

 

I love the JustRite banners and Buttons dies and I used the matching stamp set. both from oysterstamps

 

I was a little worried that this card was too pink but a friend told me there is no such think as 'too' pink.

 

Izzy had a lovely birthday and I know she will have a great party on Saturday.

 

Happy first Birthday Izzy!

 

thanks for stopping by blog.

photograhy card

hi all,

i'm here to show you a card ive made for our niece, she is doing a photography course at Uni so this image seemed perfect.

 

I used the sentiment dies I got from pink frog, I keep forgetting I've got these. lol

 

I also used my ms valentines punch, its one of my favorites.

 

I've used lots of grey copics to colour the image.

 

this image was in my files on my laptop but I cant remember what site I got it from. if anyone knows could you let me know so I can give the artist credit.

 

well i'm off now, I've got another card idea in my head that is bursting to get out so I better go and find some papers.

 

thanks for stopping by,

Another Butterfly

Hi, I'm back with another butterfly card. I got this idea while making the last card.

 

I have to admit, it was slightly fiddly but I like the finished effect.

 

I've used cream card again and cut with spellbinders Marvelous Squares, these were layered up using 3D foam.

 

here is the fiddly part...

 

I cut the couture creations butterfly twice, one in dark red card and one in script card.

then I used all the tiny pieces of script card into the red one.

 

I also added some fine glitter to the script card before cutting.

 

3 little pearls added the finishing touch.

 

this has to be my favourite butterfly die!

 

available from www.oysterstamps.co.uk

 

right, im off to finish a card for a very special little's girls 1st birthday.

Butterfly Card

Hi friends,

 

My blog posts are like buses, you don't see one for ages then two come at the same time!

(note to self.... must do better)!

 

So, here I am so quickly with another card, this time I've used Couture Creations butterfly die which is lovely. I had another idea pop into my head for this die while I was making this card so I may be back with that tomorrow.

 

I've also used the Couture Creations swirl die and mounted it onto cream card which I embossed using cuttlebug Chicken Wire folder.

 

the butterfly is cut in wine card and the wings sit up giving a lovely effect but they do lay flat for posting.

 

 

the frame is spellbinders resplendent recangles and the sentiment is whimsy. this card is my DT card for Oysterstamps so everything I've used is available from them.

 

check out their new arrivals, OMG they have some yummy new dies and stamps.

 

hmmm so, should I try out that butterfly idea that is in my head now? I won't sleep until its out of there will I.

 

watch this space!

 

thanks for stopping by.
