5th Birthday Card

Ben is going to a birthday party tomorrow so I have made this card for his friend Olivia. I have used a Tilda image and coloured her with a mixture of marvey le plumes and sakura gel pens. I have used Anita 3D gloss on the flower in her hand and the flowers in her hair and the papers were from a magazine. The flowers and ribbon were from my stash - I've had a big tidy of my little craft room under the stairs and found things I never knew I had ... oops !!!

Penny Black Hedgehog

I made this card for Clare's weekly sketch challenge over on Do Crafts. I love the Penny Black image and I loved the bright papers but now it is finished I am thinking it is maybe a bit too bright. Anyway I've used a Penny black image coloured with Marvey Le Plumes, papers from a magazine, Prima flowers and the ribbon and gems were from my stash.

Tilda Valentine Card

This is a card I made for Clare's weekly challenge over on Do Crafts. I love the Tilda image although I am a bit disappointed with how the colouring of her has come out. I really need to invest in some good markers so I can get a better finish as at the moment I just have pencils. The papers for the background came free with Simply Cards and Papercraft mag and the wooden heart and organza ribbon were from my stash. Hope you like it!

Valentine's Card (Clare's Sketch Challenge)

I've finally finished my entry for Clare's sketch challenge over on Do Crafts. I had a couple of goes at this one before I was finally happy with it. I used my Sizzlits for the hearts, the papers were with Simply Cards and Papercrafts magazine and the ribbon and brads were just what I had in my stash. Hope you like it, I enjoyed doing it !

Birthday card for my Niece Isabella

This is the card I made for Issy for her birthday last Saturday. My daughter Grayce had been looking forward to Issy's party for most of the year so we were glad when the day finally arrived if you see what I mean, bless her ! I wasn't really happy with the letters I put across the top of the card and was going to change it to a computer generated greeting but time ran out and I had to go with it as it was, luckily she loved it !





The card is made with my new Lily and Milo stamp which i love it is soooo cute. The papers are from Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine, Prima flowers with swarovski gems and Papermania buttons.

Hello

I've not posted for a while now which isn't good when I am trying to get my new blog up and running but things have been hectic. My little boy Ben has been ill with this sickness virus which is going around, in fact most of the family have had it and then I got it at the weekend and I am still recovering. But still I have a few cards to post for you to see and then I need to get on with making my entry for this weeks sketch challenge run by Clare Curd over on Do Crafts. As soon as I have made the card I will post it.

Please accept my apologies for the quality of all my piccies on the blog at the moment. I really need to learn how to take really clear photos, if anyone has any hints or tips I would love to hear them. xxx
