All That Bling

Good Morning

My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

Hope you are all well  and coping with the fine weather

Well can you believe it July already my how these months are flying by.

          Another month can only mean one thing, it the start of another new challenge
starting today over at Whoopsi Daisy and our theme this month  is

BLING IT ON

 A really nice challenge as it means no limit to the sparkle and lets face it
 we all love a bit of bling, so come on lets see what you can do.

 More details over on the Whoopsi Daisy Challenge Blog here

If you should need a little inspiration, then if you visit our 

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

Good News Linnie now sell her digital stamps on Etsy if you would like to visit her shop

Please Note :-**NEW RULE**  We now have a limit of 2 entries per person, however,
 if 1 of your entries uses an image from Whoopsi Daisy, you may have an additional entry. 
 So, if you use a Whoopsi Daisy image, you may enter 3 times total.


     Here is my DT make, I have a great a time designing this one and love
how it's turned out.

DETAILS

               1. Using white linen effect card I made the base, size is 19cm square.
       Then using pink satin card I cut it down to 18.5cm  square
 another  white linen card was then  cut to 18cm square.

 2. Using an X-cut die I created the aperture first in the pink
card then in  the white.

           3. Before matting together I took a fabric paper from First Edition
        Rose Garden paper pad and adhered to the pink card. I then
adhered the white card over the top.

               4. Next I took a pre coloured image from the Cd Sentimentally Yours
                    from Ruby Red (which can be purchased at the Whoopsi Daisy shop
                  link above or from Ruby Red Crafts).  I fuzzy cut her and using foam
                   tape  adhered her to the frame. Before doing that I glittered parts of
her dress and headband.

           5. To complete the design, I added the bling swirls (from the Range £1)
                      and using my glue gun adhered a row of  pearl  beads. The flower flourish
            also from the Range was glued to the card  and I have added a dazzler
       to its centre.  The sentiment (For a Wonderful Friend) from my stash.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and look forward to seeing
your makes.

Until Next Time
As Always

Tri Fold

Good Morning, My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Hope you are well? Quick  post today as off to mums this morning

for my usual domestic chores.  Once you retire holidays don't seem to

bother you and you just carry on as normal.  

Not that I am complaining I love being retired

Today my card has been made using the new Tri-Fold die from

Ruby Red Crafts and I must say it was a doddle to use.  Should you

fancy having a go the link to the store can be found Here.

DETAILS

1. The trifold card was created using an A4 sheet of white card.

2. All the panels were also done using the Tri fold die as

you get all the panels included, Great No Measuring.

3. The panels were done with paper from my stash and

I have decorated them with various bits from my stash.

4. The centre was taken from the Hunkydory  Little Book 

of Birdsong and all I did was trim it to fit into the space.

Nice and easy and I must say I am impressed with

this die.

Well my friends, that's your lot from me today,

Hope you will pop back tomorrow as I will

have my DT head on for Lil Patch of Crafty Friends New Challenge

Wishing you all a very Happy Easter 

Until Next Time

As Always

Take Care and Happy Crafting

Pretty in Pink

Good Morning

My Crafty friend, followers and Visitors

I cannot belive it, yes another follower has joined by little band, welcome
PinkyLisa'sinky craft. Wow I am now up to 64 followers and hope before
much longer to get into 3 figures, that would be absolutely astounding.

I trust everyone is fine and dandy, I know its Monday and many of you
will be getting off to work, with the Monday blues but think, well it's
now one day nearer than yesterday till the  weekend is back with us !!
Hope the weather is being kind  to you in your part of the world and
that you are all keeping warm and safe.

Now done to business - It's 2nd February, the first Monday of the month
 and once again time for  another challenge over at 

Whoopsi Daisy.

  Our theme this month is :- PRETTY IN PINK
details of this months prise over on the challenge blog.

I do hope you will join us again (last month's challenge had a wonderful response)
and should you need any inspiration, please pop over to the challenge blog and
view all the gorgeous creations that our wonderful design team have
created.  Here is my little contribution, hope you like?

DETAILS

1. Card size 8 x 8 and I have embossed a piece of white
card  using one of the  new Crafters Companion
 Embossalicious folder called Floral Tressis.

2. Before adhering to the card I wrapped a piece of pink ribbon
across ( I know it does not show but the writing on the  ribbon
reads It's a Girl).

3. Using the new Cd Sentimentally Your from Ruby Red
available HERE I printed off the image and using
foam pads to give more height adhered it to the card.

4. The cot has been die cut with a Tattered Lace die
and glittered before attaching to the card. The ribbon
across the top, I have had for many years and I think
it's so cute.

5. To create the decorative frame I took patterned  vellum
      and using a Momento  Collection  Ornamental Lace die
created the frame and adhered it the embossed card
before attaching to the card base.

To complete I added flowers from my stash and using  Cosmic Shimmer
Vintage Pink Pearlescent PVA created the little pearls in the centre
of each flower on the embossing.

So there we are - I do hope you join in the challenge, looking
forward to seeing all you wonderful creations.

Hope you have enjoyed your visit today, until tomorrow

As Always

Walkies

Good Afternoon,

 My crafty friends, followers and visitors

How are we all today? well I hope and those of you who under the

weather I send you big hugs and wish you a speedy recovery.

Not been up to much today, been over to see mum, took Oscar

for his walk and back home doing housework.

After lunch I though I can hear something and yes IT WAS CRAFT

ROOM CALLING so here I  am doing my blog and then having

a play.

You know how I much I am enjoying using Whoopsi Daisy

images, well guess what I have made top three AGAIN!!

I am amazed and  feel so proud and I cannot tell you the boost

it is giving my confidence.

Today I am giving you a make using the Sassy & Classy Cd

DETAILS

1. Card blank is a fancy edge from my stash.

                 2.   Ran off the image from the Sassy & Classy Cd from

                          Ruby Red Crafts and then coloured her using Spectrum

             Noir Pens.  I then cut out the image using  the

                        Grand Labels Four by Spellbinder and also using the

               same die I cut another piece of patterned card.

                     3.   The two were then laid at different angles onto the card

   4.  To complete I added Crystal Blossoms from

        Keepsake Card Crafts around the edges and

stuck three orange daisies at the top.

Hope you have enjoyed your visit and As Always

Take Care and Happy Crafting

Hey Girl

Good Evening Everyone,

How are we all today? well what a day its been with this weather, I was

at mum's today doing her housework and when  I got there  the weather was

sunny, so out I went to peg out the washing, it had only been out about

half a hour when it started raining ( you know the type of rain that is

very fine but wets you through) well my little legs  ran into the garden

to bring it all in. This went on for a couple of hours, washing out, washing in

in the end I gave up, brought it home shoved it in the dryer.

Today's make is using the new Sassy & Classy Cd, hope you like.

DETAILS

               1. Card base is made using the new Easel Card Die from Ruby Red

          Crafts and is a joy to use, backing paper also from the  Cd.

2. The image was printed off the Sassy & Cassy Cd again

               from Ruby Red Crafts and I coloured her with Spectrum Noir

Pens.

           3 I then die cut the image using Spellbinder Grand Labels 4 and

          also using the same die cut another label in black card.  The

            two dies were then put together at an angle and adhered to the

easel card.

    4. Using white card  and a Tonic flourish die  I cut one single

  flourish and with red roses from my stash used these to

complete my card.

Well that's all for now my friends

As Always

Take Care and Happy Crafting
