Happy Birthday!

I don't seem to be able to stop playing with these Dies, here is another card made today, this is from the Spanish collection by Sue Wilson - Seville and the bow is from the Finishing Touches collection.  Papers are by Teresa Collins.




Green!

Well I seem to be on a roll with my blog this week!

Today I have made a card for the February card challenge for the card swap group I belong to.
We usually just make a card to a particular theme set by Heather but this month for a change we are not swapping cards, just posting a photo and whoever Heather picks will win a lovely green pearl braclet which she has made.  The group is on Facebook and is a closed group called Crafty Card Swap, we are more than happy to have more members so would love to see you there!

Bonjour!

Hello again!  Today I decided to do something outside my comfort zone, an altered frame!  I am not great at distressing, it never turns out how I would like it to but one of these days I may get it right!  This was just a cheap wooden frame from The Pound Shop so wasn't too worried if I messed it up.  I covered it with some Graphic 45 paper from their French Connection collection and inked the edges.  I used my Melt Pot and Martha Stewart moulds to make the flower and butterfly.  I think it needs something else on it but not sure, what do you think?

Thinking of You!

Hi there, today I was inspired by Sue Wilson's blog card so thought I would try my version of it, hope you like it!  i decided to use gilding flakes instead of just stamping it.

Good Friends!

Good afternoon everyone,  I had a bit of a rummage through my craft stash and came across these card blanks which I must have had for about 5 years so thought I would make a quick card using one of them along with the new Seville Die from Sue Wilson's new collection.  The card blanks are just the right size for this Die!

Congratulations!

Hope everyone has survived the storms of last night, we had a fairly good day today but looks like the storms are coming back tomorrow!

Well I have been playing with my new dies again today, I really do love them, wish I could afford the whole set, I will have to make do with these for now though!

Special Friend!

Well I said I might be back and this is what I have made this time.  I love this shade of green, one of my favourite colours at the moment.  It is still raining and blowing a gale here and freezing cold.  Think I will gave to turn the heating up as I feel cold even with the heating on!  Hope you are all keeping safe and warm!  May be back later! xxx
