Good Morning

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

Hope you are all well and are having a lovely Bank Holiday Monday.

Well its May  my how these 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

THINGS WITH WINGS

  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 an 8 x8 white blank card and matted it with
paper  from Craftwork Cards collection Paradise

2.         Using the CD Daisy May and Friends I took the image

             and coloured her with my Copics, and then used glitter
on her wings. I then fuzzy cut her out.

3.     Using dies from the  Sue Wilson Collection Noble Classic
  Adorned Rectangles I embossed the larger one and then
           embossed it using pink embossing powder. The next size was
    simple cut from white card and then I attached my image
using foam pads to it.

4.     To add more interest to the frame I took lace from my stash
and adhered it to one side of the frame.

To complete I added a pink butterfly also from my stash.

Lilac Sparkle

Good Morning my crafty friends,followers and visitors,

Welcome to my blog for today, I hope everyone is well?.  We have had some

lovely weather this week and you would not know that is was the end of

September especially on Tuesday as we had clear blue skies and sunshine.

I even had to take my coat off in town as it was that warm.

Sorry I have not blogged since Monday but somehow the days seem to be running

away from me and what with one thing and another before I know it, its evening

and tea time.  After that I usually sit down with hubby to watch some TV, then

the usual happens, Yes Jennifer falls asleep.

Anyway I hope you will like today's offering.

DETAILS

1. Card is 8 x8 scalloped edge and I have matted it with Lilac

card that I have embossed using Creative Expression folder

Quilted Flower.

2. I then took a piece of white card and masked it using the

Creative Expressions mask Filigree and then used Cosmic

Shimmer Sparkle Texture Paste  Lilac Blush to create the

pattern.

3. Whilst I waited for it to dry I took the petal dies that was a

freebie with the new Tattered Lace Magazine and cut out

12 large petals and  20  small petals out of lilac card, These

are great dies and so easy to create a stunning flower. Once

the petals were all folded I adhered them to a piece of card,

that had been punched out into a circle to create the flower

  and finished it by adding a gem to the centre.

4. Once the paste was completely dry I adhered the flower

to the centre then using foam pads I adhered it at

an angle onto my card base.  To complete I added

the sentiment (With Love ) from my stash.

Well that's all for today my friends

As Always

Purple Christmas

Morning, My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Well it's Bank Holiday Monday and I hope you all enjoy the day, as for those

of you who work, sorry to say its your last one till Christmas, Stinks doesn't it.

 Anyway lets not dwell on that, I thought today I would share another

Christmas card with you all (Oh no I hear you cry but Its Got To Be Done)

as how else would we push ourselves to make them HA! HA!!!

I am excited that over at Whoopsi Daisy I received a third place in their

challenge and have taken my badge with pride.

DETAILS

1. 8 x8 scalloped edged white card to this I added a piece of

mirri board that I embossed and a lilac ribbon.

2. Using the Creative Expressions mask Swirl Frame I 

placed it onto purple card and stencilled using Cosmic

Shimmer Sparkle Textured paste Pink Blush.

3. Once dry I mounted it onto white card and adhered it to

my card.

4. Using Tattered Lace dies Winter Foliage and Cottage Cuts

die Ornate Poinsettia I cut using white card stock, then

glittered for that extra sparkle ( does not show up very well)

5. To complete again using the  Tattered Lace  sentiment

Winter Wishes it was cut from white card and glittered

and added to the centre.  I tied a bow leaving long tails

to twist for that added effect, lilac gems added to ribbon

to finish.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and that you will

pop back soon.

Festive Fun

Hello Everyone,

OK own up Who has taken the sun today?? its been cloudy all day and the

temperature  sure has dropped a few degrees.  Hope you have all been busy

doing your own thing, me I have been doing housework, boring I know

but you have to do it.  Managed to catch Christina on C&C at noon, it

was her first time and I must say she handled it great.  She was demonstrating

Spellbinder and yes I did end up purchasing a couple of items - well you

just have to don't you!!.

Today I thought I would enter into the spirit of YES Christmas, hope

you like.

DETAILS

1. Started out with an 5 x7 card base to this I added a piece of

red mirri board.

2. Taking a piece of white card I embossed it with a snowflake

      design, I then added definition by using Metallic Gilding Wax

Ultramarine by Creative Expressions to the snowflakes.

3.  The image is by Amy Design and its called Christmas Couple.

       This I stamped onto a circle die cut frame from Spellbinder and

               coloured using pro-markers. I then added an overlay of snow acetate

and using foam pads I adhered it to the card.

    4. Taking a piece of polka dot ribbon I threaded it around the frame    

 and  added pieces of holly to give it a wreath effect.

5. The sentiment was die cut out of red mirri board using the

Robert Adams sentiment dies.

                    And there you have it, I would like to thank you all for taking the

               time to follow me and to welcome my new followers and to

                  thank  you  all for the comments on my work, I really do love 

reading them  and appreciate them.

So Folks that's it for today, hope you will come back for

another visit.

 As Always

Good Evening My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

I hope you are all well.  I would like to welcome my new followers to my blog and

I hope you continue to enjoy your visits.  Thank you all for your lovely comments

and for your get well wishes, I am please to tell you I am fine today.  What was

wrong yesterday I have no idea, I just felt so tired and had no energy but going

to bed early seem's to have done the trick. 

 Not been up to much today only housework (boring) then nipped into town to do a 

few errands, Linda came round this afternoon and put me straight on a few

 things I have been doing wrong on  my blog ( I will get the hang of this,

 if it's the last thing I do )  NOW NOW, STOP LAUGHING.

Hope you like today's little make ?

DETAILS

1. On an 8 x8 deckled edge card I mounted pink pearl card that

I have embossed.

2. I took the topper from Hunkydory and glittered certain parts

and then put Rhinestone borders down both sides to add

 effect.  I then mounted it onto the card.

3. The sentiment has been printed off the  (Words of Inspiration) by

Debbi Moore CD and reads {Life is not measured by the breaths we

take But by the Moments that take our Breath Away} I used a

Spellbinder die from the Labels Eight to enhance it.

4. To complete I then placed two white feathers onto card and

secured with a Dazzler Setting and Frosted Dazzler by 

Creative Expressions.

I do hope you have enjoyed your visit and as always

Take Care and Happy Crafting

Party Girl

Good Evening to my crafty friends, followers and visitors,

Well today has been very quite for me so I have spent most of my day in my craft room and
watching Create and Craft .  I did intend to do some planting but seeing the weather I decided
 not today. I am afraid I love my garden but only like to work in it when the weather is warm and sunny.

Today's make is a little on  the  sophisticated style, hope you like.

DETAILS

1.  8 x8 Metallic Grey card 

2. I then used a Hunkeydory embossed red card to

create the background.

3. Onto black card I used the mask( ornate Frame) from

Creative Expressions. The textured paste was also from

Creative Expressions - Warm Gold Sparkle Cosmic Shimmer.

4. The image if from one of Debbie Moore's design collections. I

cut slits into the frame and put to allow me to create a dome with

the image.

5. To complete the card I added feather, flowers and red gems

from my stash.

Thank you for visiting, I hope you have enjoyed it.

Until next time

Take Care and Happy Crafting.

Hey Girlfriend

Good Morning followers crafty friends and visitors and welcome to my blog, I hope you are all well
and enjoying the sunshine today, let hope it lasts. Today I have created another card using a stamped
image.

DETAILS

I took an A4 Cream card blank and mounted black card onto it, then

covered with a backing paper from Creative Expressions. The image

was coloured again using Pro-markers and distressed around the

edges with Antique Linen by Tim Holt's, I then mounted it onto

black card and attached using foam pads to the card.  The flowers

were cut from black card using Tattered Lace Mini Blooms die

and then I added glitter which gave the blue glitter effect.  These

were then mounted onto to the card .

I do hope you have enjoyed your visit and I would love to read

any comments you may wish to leave.

Until next time, Take Care ands Happy Crafting

cannot tell if we are going to have rain or sunshine but hey ho that's not going to deter us from doing our crafting.

 I was very excited yesterday to hear I had won the MAKE OF THE WEEK in the
Lelli-Bot group and I will be issued with a badge to add to my blog YIPPPPPPP !!!!!
 I felt quite humble that out of all the beautiful cards that the Lelli-Bot ladies make I had been chosen.
The card that won was Golden Girls and is on my blog if you would like to see.

Quit a busy day today as as I have to take Oscar out for his walk and my cousin Mary will be here later this morning for lunch and then we will be crafting. Today I thought I would offer you three cards using flowers from Hunkydory - hope you like?

                   Rest of the card made using backing paper, Topper,

      paper ribbon and tag from the  Hunkydory

         card. and used a frosted Lilac Dazzler by

              and curled. To complete I put Ice Blue gems

around the edges and one on the tag.
