This time I used flitter glue and royal peacock guilding flakes onto black card. I stamped the sentiments around the edge and made a little rectangle for me to mount a personal sentiment. I drew the wiggly line with a fine gold pen.
The next question is will I sell all my Christmas cards this weekend or will I have enough left for my personal use or will I be making like mad!!!! Time will tell. xx
Hi welcome to by blog a place to see the cards and other random stuff I have made. I hope you enjoy having a look around and thank you for visiting

Christmas Baubles
I am back to this Indigoblu stamp - I do think its lovely.
This time I embossed with clear powder and brayered over the top with Denim blue adirondak. for some reason it came out looking more like stonewash - unless I had the lids mixed up. LOL
I added a few random sentiments - again Indigoblu, some gems, a tag for me to add a personalised sentiment onto, then mounted onto navy card and then white some blue candy in the corners.

Christmas cottage
I have three posts today as I have been doing a few last cards ready for this weekend's fair in Blackpool. I will be there all weekend and as I haven't got an i-pad :( .......I won't be able to do any blogging whilst there
I would schedule them but then I don't know how to share with my friends on Face book other than by pressing the share button after I have posted.
This is a simple little card - I have made several with different background papers but apart from that they are the same.
A Beautiful stamp from stampendous - shame I haven't got this but I borrowed it from a craft friend. (we do like to share stuff as crafters don't we)
Its a bit hard to see in the pick but I added a hint of blue with a promarker and coloured in the holly. I used a glue pen and added glitter, mounted onto a bit of red card ( to bring out the berries) and mounted onto some nice paper from a pad of Christmas papers I picked up some where or other.

Forty
THIS VERSE MAY OFFEND IF YOU ARE DEEPLY RELIGIOUS SO PLEASE DON'T READ IT IF YOU ARE |
I hadn't a clue what to make him aren't men so hard to make for?
I saw this verse so I half hitched it - found a picture of him and his mates on FB and included it in the insert.
The front of the card was done in Serif then I distressed the edges with slate adirondak, matted on to black card. I stamped another piece of card with beer mugs and distressed that too.

Ruby Wedding
I was asked to make a Ruby Wedding card and was given a photo.
I too the photo into serif to get it the right size to fit into a spellbinder oval.
The top and bottom are a from a cheery Lynne die that I have "hooked" around the oval frame. The heart is made from two bits of scrap from the fancy flourish.
Its all in pearl card again. I printed a sentiment and cut around it with a circle die and back onto another one to give it a bit of a lift.

Pink Wedding
Another wedding card - another order - its very similar to the one I posted last week but just thought I'd share it with you. Its all made out of pearl card and silver mirri.
I used my hougie to create the background. The flowers are made from white pearl paper and embossed in silver with the flower stamp from dimension stamps. I printed the sentiments onto white pearl card and embossed with silver. Te box has a strip of ribbon to match the one that goes across the card.

21st Birthday
Yet another commission - hasn't my new grand calibur been busy!!
Had to be pink - oh b...er no pink card. so out came my splodge away mat and my brayer together with Victorian velvet and made some!
I used the creative expressions folder and embossed the backing card . mounted on gold. printed the sentiment and embossed in gold. used some beautiful number stamps that I got at a craft show but I can't remember who makes them it is a foreign name - they make glittery paste and stuff too.
Cut out with labels twenty but the largest label was a bit big so drew round it and cut out with scissors.
Made some flowers with Dimension stamps - I have used these a lot again no pink pearly paper so had to colour my own.!! the little leaf in gold is a cheery Lynn die and is helping to cove the line in the embossing folder!!.
