Vive Les girls!

I've got a lovely new book of papers from Graphic 45 - A ladies Diary.  I collected it yesterday from the craft club and as I had ordered it I downloaded some digi stamps the night before from here http://freevintagedigistamps.blogspot.co.uk/  they are free.  I coloured the ladies in with promarkers mounted onto black and then some of the paper from the book.  I inked and distress some more of the script papers I got as this too married in with the stamp and mounted onto some more of the graphic 45 paper.  There are some lovely papers and images so you could be in for a run - I'll see how it goes.

Platinum wedding anniversary


I used the serif  programme to create the round sentiment with a 70 inside.  I set the RGB settings to make it a silvery colour, printed and then added glitter to the 70 with a glue pen.

I then cut various fancy circles alternating white pearl card and silver mirri.  The flourishes are from a cheery lynne die.  I did the hougie trick again on the background and added bling to the cross overs. matted onto silver mirri and then onto white pearl card

Feminine Oldies


the top card is for a 60th Birthday and the bottom is for a 90th I didn't add the flower to the top one as it may be going through the post.  I used some pearl card through the houghie board to create a background and matted and layered onto some vitnagey type pink patterned paper.  I used the same pearl card and paper to cut out the shapes .  The lady is a clarity stamp as is the happy birthday I added 90th and 60th from a set of alpha stamps.  I added a ribbon with a narrow braid on top added a bow and hat pins.  The flower was made from the same pink paper using a spellbinder flower die.

first Christmas card of 2012

I decided to make this card to follow on from the summery one I did with the bench stamp.

This time I have stamped in grey and used cool grey promarkers to colour in.  The background is the split tree from clarity and the trees on the right are the twigs from the Joy clarity set.  I used bits of stamps to create an edge to the "garden" I used a quickie glue pen to highlight where the snow would lay and added glitter.  The greeting is also a clarity stamp.

More Art Deco


These are from the free downloaded digi stamps that I downloaded.  On the top one I have utilised some more of that script paper as it had the tower on and I thought it fitted quite well.

I just added a few flower tops to the other one to to finish it off.

More colouring in with promarkers.  I only have a box full  REALLY need some more!! especially another blue and yellow ha ha

Your How old?


Just a couple of small cards using my memory box heart. I started by cutting out 4 hearts in gold mirri.  I then split them and used the top parts for behind the 50's one and the pointy ends for the 60's one.

Take a seat

I found a set of stamps that I forgot I had.  I won the raffle at the craft club the other week and bought this set of stamps by Lindsay Mason  I have coloured them with promarkers and mounted onto some spotty paper.
