Birthday card for Karen

As you can tell I have fallen in love with this shape of card... This card is a 5 inch white square, the stamp is by "Printworks" and called "Star Cupcake" says it all really!! The papers are by "Basic Grey" unfortunately all my papers are now in a storage box and not in the original "outsides" so don't know which design, sorry!!! The cake is coloured using "Pro-markers". Love it.....

Even more Christmas Cards

I still trying.....

More Christmas cards

Have been making Christmas cards but for some reason have been unable to post them on the blog????So, whilst it is behaving itself here are a couple......

Carols Sketch Fun Challenge

As I am going to Spain for the next three weeks I thought before I leave I'd have a go at Carols Sketch Fun Challenge, as I went to the "Colemans" end of month sale, this morning and bought some new stamps and a new CD Rom. The Stamps are by kars, "Ollyfant" stamps and the CD Rom is "Deck the Halls" by "Colour my world" The ribbon is a small piece from stash so can't remember where I got it from!!! (senior moment!!)(and I'm having a few of those recently!!)I love the Christmasy colours!!I coloured the picture using "Pro-markers" (great aren't they???)Going to Ali Pali tomorrow so hoping to get a few more!!! YEYH!!!

More Christmas cards

I have had a great time recently making more Christmas cards, and as you can see from the pictures I have picked up a card design from Carol over at Carols Paperplayce. the first card was done using the "Cuttle Bug" folder "Swiss dots" the basic card is 5 x 5 inch square and "Pro marker pens" a small amount of paper from the stash and I think this is a really fun card.

Father-in Laws Christmas Card

Another card!!!! I made an 8inch white card. Printed out the Mistletoe papers from the Joanna Sheens CD rom "The Jayne Netley Mayhew Collection" a piece of silver Mirri Board and some silver ribbon from stash. I hoped it would not be too girly, as he's a man on his own he really does not like cutie cards, so thought this fitted the bill exactly!!!I decoupaged the mistletoe on the main picture and glazed the berries to show them off, really like this picture and papers, shall use it again I think!!

Anniversary Card

My sister in laws Anniversary is at the end of October But seeing as I'll be away from the 28th of this month to the 15th of next I thought I'd get ahead of myself and make her anniversary card. I made it very much like the last card, only I added a few paper flowers to make a bouquet.I am really sorry about the quality of the photo I'm really rubbish at getting the detail on the picture, the background is emossed using the "Hearts" embossing folder by "Cuttlebug" but it is really hard to see here.

Play time

I have been really busy playing at making cards. On Thursday my friend Sue came by and we played very nicely all day making cards. These Polar Bear stamps are hers but I couldn't help but stamp a few whilst she was here. The background is embossed with the "Cuttle Bug" and the "Snowflakes" embossing folder. A little silver spray on the mount to make it look frosty and the edges punched using a Fiskers punch. Simple!!!
