A pressie for you

This is the little girl that goes with the little buy from yesterday - aah bless.  More free papers a bit of ribbon and a little butterfly charm I came across in a box I keep bits and bobs in.

Little Boy blue

I was posting this earlier today but never got around to it -  I don't know where the day has gone!!

Can't believe its 8.45pm.  I have just packed the car ready for tomorrow I am at Poulton le Fylde in st. Chads hall at a craft fair 10am till 4pm.  If you are around please feel free to pop in and have a nosey.

Thought I would use a free stamp that I got on a magazine - it's a bit of a cute card for me - the paper was a freebie from a magazine too.  I coloured him in with pro markers, stamped a sentiment and cut them out with the cuttlebug.  You can't see it on the photo but there is also some more of that open weave stuff that I have coloured to match the card.

Pearl Wedding

It's our Pearl Wedding Anniversary next week so I thought I'd better make the OH a card.  Hadn't got a clue what to do for a man for a special anniversary as I didn't want to make it too girly - like no ribbons.

Anyway he's getting this one.  I have used my serif programme to make the background and sentiment, I then added little pearls to the hearts (just to make it a pearl anniversary card you understand).  I then cut a memory box heart and it embossed it with a spotty folder. - Bet it's nicer than the one I will probably get from the newsagent at the bottom of the street.LOL

two little bears

This topper has been around since before I went on holiday - I coloured it at the craft club and I have finally got around to finishing it .  - it's good to be crafting again.

The little bears were a freeebie on a mag.

I cut  out a heart in copy paper to make a mask and then used antique linen distress ink to make a little heart that was subtle.  I stamped the sentiment and the tried to get the bears to look like they're holding the heart.  Again coloured in with pro markers and then did a wiggly line around the edge.

Get on the bus

This stamp is one of stamps away transport stamps.

I started with a piece of plaint white card and coloured it faintly with a bit of blue at the top and green at the bottom with my inkylicous brushes - you can't really tell from the photo as it is very subtle.  I coloured in the bus with promarkers and mounted onto dark brown card.  I stamped the sentiment in brown on some craft card .  I added some of that open-weave stuff but I toned it down from white with a brown distress ink.  A card for the man

mica swirl

Hi Everyone

I'm back.  I got a new swirly stamp from Barbara Grey's project club last month and have only just got around to using it.

I stamped in versamark onto black shiny card.  I then used a couple of colours of perfect pearl mica powders to highlight them.  the twiddly bits behind are a couple of memory box Christmas trees chopped up!

I added a bit of - I don't know what to call it as it isn't ribbon is an open weave stuff!! - I topped that with a bit of black ribbon and then mounted it all on more black & white n- et voila.  It hasn't got a  sentiment - it's just a card to use for whatever!! lol

Divorce

I have been asked to make a divorce card so cos I had nothing in my crafty stash decided to use my serif programme.  the top pic is the front and the bottom pic folds in half to make the insert.  I have been told I've been cruel to the groom but on all accounts he deserved it !!  Hopefully back to proper crafting soon!.
