Hi All

I have finally taken pictures of the Birthday cards my crafting buddies sent me.


Sue and Denise


Carol and Willy

 

Wendy and Fiona


Pauline and Margaret


Gina

My friends are so talented didn't I get some lovely cards what a lucky lady I am.

It was also my wedding anniversary 39 years and as my Hugh says you get less time for murder, he is so romantic and this was his card.





Just love the image I think it was a free digi the small tags should have been the same colour but the small square tag was the third attempt. Then I pick up the wrong distressing ink and hey presto another mistake. So I edged the stamp image with the same ink and there you have it a mistake corrected or so I think.

See you soon.

Hi All
Today has been another sunny day and  this afternoon I have been sat in my garden room crafting. I was also listening to my Rebus audio book. A nice afternoon was had by all.

And this is what I produced.


And the second design.



I was very pleased with how both cards turned out.

Stamps by Little Claire Design coloured with my promarkers.

These stamps also had a window design and all the little stamps fit inside it.This will be used in my next card something for you all to look forward,  which should be made and posted next.

Bye for now

Hi All

Here we go again this card was made for my friend Denise's birthday. Sorry the colours look a little washed out but my picture is not very good.



I like this digi stamp the young girl is a little old fashioned but the colours used on the card bring her bang up to date.

As usual I am not sure where the paper came from. I used a free digi stamp, I am a crafty crafter. The lace was from the Newark market I always have a rummage in the off cuts box. The flowers well your guess is as good as mine.

See you all soon.

Hi All

I needed to make a special fun card for my brother- in- laws 60th Birthday and I came up with the following card. Initially I matted and layered the images onto three shapes I had cut on my cricut machine. Unfortunately my husband thought that this was a little fussy so I cut the layers  down to two, I must agree that they looked much better. I wanted the card to take him through stages of his life so the first one was of a young boy.



Image was a free digi
Kanban Card
Papermania paper
Coloured with promarkers


The second Image was of a young man.

Stamp free digi image.

The final part of the card was for an old man and the letters were cut out on my cricut machine, and  I used the storybook cartridge.


As you can see I changed the heading on the card from old man to old G?? not very nice but it will make him laugh.
Well that it for tonight.

Hi All

I forgot to post this picture of me at the Harrogate flower show. I went with Hugh and we both had a great day out.




This is just one of the many flower displays on show. We spent the whole day at the show and I was exhausted at the end but the day was well worth the effort.

Here we go for my second posting today a special little Bear.



I think he is so cute and the colours all match so well.  I shall have great pleasure in producing him again.
The bear was a free digi stamp and I used my pro-markers to colour  him. So there you go Pauline a second posting just for you.
Hi All

I went to my cricut club on Saturday and had a most enjoyable day cutting out background from my friend Fiona's cricut cartridge paper lace I used it as a background for one of my cards and here it is.


My Friend Pauline was moaning at me for not posting to my blog more often so just for her I will post two cards today.
