Good Morning

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

How are you are all doing today, hope the weekend is going well.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all and hope your loved one is going to 

smother you will lots of love today.  If you don't have someone

special to share the day with, take heart you are not alone as long as

you have all your crafty family. We never judge you just try and

cheer one another up and share, listen to your troubles  and try to lend a helping hand.

Off shopping (nothing exciting only Food) then not sure  what we will be doing after

that.

Today I have again used a Sherri Baldy image, sorry but I cannot stop

using these images, I am in love with them.

DETAILS

1. Card is 6 x 6 scolloped edge and to this I have added

a piece of fawn coloured plain card.

2. Next using the Tonic die Elegant Vine Square and a sheet

of Hunkeydory patterned  card I created the backing.

3. The inner part of the die is shaped as a tag and I used

this to cut not only the image but two more  tags in

both the patterned and plain card and laid them at 

different angles on the  card. A blue spotted ribbon

was wrapped around the base before adhering to the card.

3. The image has been coloured using my new Copic pens

and I must say I love them and cannot wait to get the

rest of the set. The image is again one of the Sweet Geeks from

Sherri Baldy.

4. To complete I made a bow using the same ribbon and

added a blue flower brad. Since she had the word

Paris across her top I decided to add a metal Eiffel Tower

embellishment.

Hope you have enjoyed your visit and that you will

pop back tomorrow.

Until Next Time

As Always

Good Morning my crafty friends. followers and visitors

Welcome to my Thursday blog, quick blog today as its a busy day.

Hope you are all well and still enjoying the summer although does

not look much like summer today.  Think a spot of rain might be

on the cards but with our weather who knows.  Today I thought

we would give Christmas a miss but be warned It Will Be Back

SORRY !!

DETAILS

1. Base card used  is 8 x8  scalloped edge, I then took a piece of shinny 

black card and embossed using my vintage embossing folder by

Crafters Companion and sanded it back a little.

2. Before adding to the base card I added the mint green ribbon and

tied to create the bow.

3. The image from Hundydory was matted onto black card and I 

added pearls from my stash to each corner before I adhered

it to the card using foam pads to give that little bit of height.

4. To complete I added mint green roses and a black feather and

added the sentiment.

Thanks for dropping by

Window to Christmas

Good Afternoon My crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

Sorry not been around much but been busy decorating.  I suppose its one form of

crafting but not one I wish to take up, anyway how are we all? I hope you are

all well and enjoying the sunshine, although today is not very sunny here in

Warrington.  Yesterday whilst I was armed with my paint brush the sun was

shining and it was hot, today was Housework and I thought once done I

can enjoy the sunshine WRONG - windy and no sun Typical !!.

Now that I have gotten that off my chest lets move on, today's offering

is yet another Christmas card (well it's something we all have to get going with )

so hope you like? 

DETAILS

1. I took an 8 x8 scalloped edge card and to this I added a

piece of silver  mirri board which I have embossed using 

one of LeCreaDesign embossing folders - Art nr. 35.9753 

2. Using Tattered Lace dies - Sleigh and Window I cut

these out of red mirri board.

3. The picture is one from Hundydory and I adhered this

to the window frame before adhering to my card.

4. The Happy Christmas  sentiment is also from Tattered

Lace and was cut from the same red  mirri board.

5. To finish off I added a red triple bow by using the

new Bow Maker.

Before I leave, I would just like to extend a warm welcome to

my new followers ( I get so excited when I see another follower)

and hope you like what you see.

Well Folks hope you enjoyed till next time,

As Always,

Good Afternoon,

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Hope you are all coping with the weather, I am loving it as I am a

sunshine person, the rain and cold do not go down well with me.

Guess I live in the wrong country (HA!!).

Well not been up to much today, spent most of the day chilling out in the

sun and this afternoon Linda came round and yes she sorted my

Winners Challenge Badge out and its now on my blog.  Many

thanks Linda, don't know what I would do without your help!!.

Anyway here is a little card I have done, hope you like?

DETAILS

Started with an 8 x8 Scalloped card to this I added a piece

of Hunkydory folded Adorable Scorable cardstock  to

the bottom of the card and to the top of the card I added a piece

of Hundydory printed Adorable Scorable cardstock with

the lily design.

Next before adhering to the card I stuck a piece of lace 

across the join, then mounted onto my card.   The topper

has been decoupaged and I have pleated lace around the topper

of added effect.

To complete, I die cut the sentiment using the Tattered Lace

Happy Birthday die.

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.
