markers and then fuzzy cut. Using Glue Gel I then

mounted her onto the card.

  the centre's in  each flower on the embossing to

Good Morning 

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend.

I just hope the weather improves as I seriously need some sunshine in my life.

Quick post today as with it being Friday, I am off to mums to do her cleaning.

She is having a new sink and unit fitted in the bathroom today and I have to

be there to oversee the plumber as mum being mum will hide herself away

in the lounge as she has never been very good at dealing with things like

this, so hey ho it all down to me.

Hope you enjoy my little make

DETAILS

1. Started with a 5 x 7 cream card.

2. The backing paper is from the cd Times Gone By 

from Crafters Companion and I have distressed it

before adhering to the card.

3. Using an oval die I cut the frame from cream card

and stamped. Next I ran my distress ink lightly over

it to age it.

4. The images are again from the same Cd and these

were also distressed before adhering.

5. The anchor is cut from a Robert Adams die and

I used brown card then I rubbed Pebeo Renaissance

Gilding wax over it.

To complete I wrapped a gold twine around and

threaded it through the anchor.

Thanks for calling 

Until Next Time

Just For You

Good Morning 

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather, and making the most of getting

outside?.

I absolutely love the hot weather and am enjoying it so far but for me it

needs to be hotter, although I have been in the garden doing some much

needing gardening,hence to say my blog has not been getting the attention

only to do my DT work.  I just hate being inside when the sun is out,

I cannot help it, if I am stuck inside I start to get really fed up and

don't have the heart to do thing that keep in.  Are any of you the same

or is just me ???

Today's card is a quickie and was all done in MCS apart from the

backing, Hope you like.

DETAILS

1. Card size is 7 x 10 and to this I added a cream (looks gold in

the picture) backing paper that I embossed using Crafters

Companion Embossalicious Delicate Floral Embossing

folder.

2. Using MCS I created the picture and added the embellishments

of flowers, bow and butterfly. The sentiment was also digitally

done.  I then printed it off onto super smooth. 

3. The image was then mounted onto white card and then

adhered to the embossed backing paper.

4. To complete I added two white feathers a pearl stick pin

and created a small white bow from spider web using

a square pearl gem at its centre.

Well my friends, I will have to take my leave as its

Thursday and as you may know by now that it's

the day that my cousin Mary comes to visit and

also our crafting day (or shopping, or chatting

depending on how we both feel on the day)

So hopefully I will be back tomorrow, I hope you will

and that you have enjoyed your visit. I will  be visiting

your blogs later to see what you have been up to.

Until Next Time

Good Afternoon

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

How are we all doing today? at least the weather is a bit better today.

Still  chilly for me but hopefully as the week progresses, maybe the

weather will.

I see that I have at last made it to 80 followers, sorry I do not know who

No 80 is but you are very welcome and I hope you will continue to 

follow.  Just let me know your ID then I can follow you if I am not

already doing so.

Quick card today as not felling in the mood to craft today, for what

reason I do not know but hopefully I will get back on track tomorrow.

DETAILS

1. Using a blank 5 x 7 card I matted it with black card

2. The backing paper was taken along with all the 

element from the new Crafters Companion CD

Times Gone By. I played the backing paper on

top of the black card, then the topper was also

matted onto black card and then adhered to the 

card at an angle.

3.When the sheet was printed out it also contained

the tags and smaller topper, so I decided to use

everything that was on the sheet. Just

matting them all onto black card, placing 

them at different angles along the card and

using a piece of bakers twine for the tags.

So so simple and there are lots of really

nice elements on the cd, if vintage is 

your thing, or if just like me sometimes

it's nice to make a vintage card.

Well folks that's it from me, off the see

what everyone has been up to and  do

some commenting.

Hope to see you tomorrow

Until Next Time

Good Morning

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

Hope you are all well and had a Lovely Easter 

Well its April my how the months are flying by and with it being the beginning of

another month, it means another new challenge starts today over at

Whoopsi Daisy and our theme this month is

THROW ON THE FLOWERS

  nice and simple, so come on lets see what you

can do. More details over on the Whoopsi Daisy Challenge Blog here

blog the wonderful design team have some stunning makes to share.

                                              Here is my DT make, Hope you like

DETAILS

1. Started with a large fancy edges card and have used it

in landscape and backed it using a pale blue satin card that

I embossed with Crafters Companion Embossing folder

Distress.

2. Using the CD Whoopsi Daisy Digi Designs I took the image

Ascot and coloured her with my Copics. I then fuzzy cut her

out.

3. Using my Serif programme I created the next layer which shows

a scene of the Eiffel Tower and various other backgrounds to 

enhance it. The ribbon down the side was also created in

Serif. Once this was all done I then took my image and

using foam pads placed her onto the backing. Next I
added a lace border next to the ribbon.

4. Next came the subject of the theme Flowers then feathers and

Pearl stick pins all from my stash.

To complete I added flat bottom pearls at the corners.
