TIME TO FLY

TIME TO FLY......

I have said before that I love getting inky, and I watch Barbara Gray with mouth open wide sometimes....she is such a clever lady, but i love how she breaks things down step by step

This is my very humble piece of artwork made using BARBARA GRAY Stamps

The background is distressed and inked, image is stamped and coloured using Pro Markers

WHO DOESN'T LOVE A BUTTERFLY

I LOVE MESSING ABOUT WITH INKS

The stamps are from the SHEENA DOUGLAS 

I love taking a piece of blank white card and turning it into something completely different, my craft room looks like a complete disaster sometimes with ink pads and stamps everywhere  :) am I the only one who ends up working in a 3 inch space?!?!  I'm thinking not lol....

The background is stamped with distress inks, then embossed with a Sheena embossing folder, butterfly is also stamped with distress inks.  Sentiment is stamped and heat embossed, finished with distress inks.

MOTHERS DAY CARDS

Slowly trying to get cards up together for Mothers day  to show people samples of cards that can be done, I find it's easier than trying to second guess peoples tastes....it gives you something to go by......

SHABBY CHIC

I love this, but I know Shabby chic isn't to every ones taste, the background is embossed  and distressed with inks, image is stamped and embossed (sorry can't remember who the stamp is by, I've had it so long and the packaging is now lost) the card is finished with flowers made from SPELLBINDERS dies and the embellishments are from the  TATTERED LACE range

KATY SUE

I love this card, it's made from the KATY SUE Fabulous Fashion CD, I love the candy colours.  The decoupaged image and backing papers are all from the CD

A LITTLE BIT OF FROU FROU

I love these images on the CRAFTERS COMPANION FROU FROU CD, they are all so feminine and girly.  The card is made from papers from the CD, matt and layered, the image is also from the CD.......all finished off with a pink ribbon...of course  ;)

MAKEY BAKEY 

Who wouldn't love to receive a boxed card with an adorable Makey Bakey image on it from CRAFTERS COMPANION

This image was part of a kit, image and backing papers from kit, finished with handmade flowers and ribbon.

A Little Bit of Lovin'

VALENTINES DAY CARD

It's probably a little late in the day to be posting this seeing as Valentines day is in the distant past, but I'm slowly trying to get my blog up together again.  A friend asked if I would could make a Valentines card for her significant other  ;) and of course he's male.......and we all know how difficult them men are out there to make cards for....never mind having to make one for someone Else's other half!  Any ho, I found this adorable stamp from crafters companion from their popcorn range.....

I have to say I was very pleased with the outcome of the card, I think using craft card and taffeta stops it looking to fluffy...and we know men don't like fluffy!!

Card was made using crafters companion stamp from the Popcorn range, the white card was embossed and layered with papers from stash, the heart has been cut out on my cricut machine.......hope you like!

Wee bit excited.........

Slightly excited about this, am I brave enough to give it a go..............

Well it's cold and wet outside and I can't believe we are nearly at the end of February already.....into march!!  So to cheer me up today and in homage of the forthcoming St Patricks day celebrations I present to you ................

Little Irish Dancer.......

How adorable is she, she's a mo manning digital stamp and she's been waiting to be coloured since last St Patricks day......just didn't quite get around to it, I'm a bit more organised this year ;)

The background papers are from The Crafters Companion Angelica and Friends CD (another favourite) and she is coloured using pro markers.

Hope you like!!

Time to start blogging again..............i've been away far too long and the crafting bug is still with me.  I will ease myself in gently over the next few days just to get the hang of it again ;).  I've been a busy bee trying to make and sell my cards, and here is one lovely delight that I have come up with made from the fabulous shoes CD from Katy Sue, which I just adore

I am so happy with the finished result, would make a lovely card for a teenage birthday or even mothers day x
