A few more....

I got this stamp from a boot sale a few months ago - and knew I would use it on my christmas cards.... I think it is a papermania stamp. I inked the edges of the image and put some acetate through my big shot, with the snowflakes embossing folder. Added a sentiment, a lovely gold ribbon, some stickles here and there and trimmed along the bottom edge with my bunpy scissors.



This paper is from a paper pack, but I can't remember which pack! I thought these snowmen are sooo cute... It's kinda hard to see, but I have decoupaged 2 snowmen on the bottom row ( on the left). Cute!

This image comes from a download I bought a while back. I added pink petticoat papers and some glossy accents to the baubles.

This paper is from a dovecrafts christmas paper pack and I thought it went really well with this digital download image. I love those snowmen throwing snowballs!!

Yet another dovecrafts christmas paper pack... I made the tree seperately and stuck it on with 3d pads. Hope you like my latest lot! xx

Christmas part 3....

Well, I haven't finished yet.... I am going to get these made and sent in the first week or so of December... I always say that though, and never manage it! haha...

Again, I have been using my pink petticoat papers and cute snowman images, with the odd bit of stickles and glitter here and there...

Oh, this card (below) was made using a lovely dovecrafts paper. I just cut out the squares and arrnaged on my card, adding some glossy accents, (but you can't see that on the piccie...I used glossy accents on hats, wings, beaks, etc) and then hand writing around the image, like a frame. My friend Pam, didn't believe I had written it myself, until I sat and made a card with her and wrote all the way round the edge! Thanks for looking! xx

More christmas cards...

Thought I would use some of the downloads which I bought earlier in the year. I think the are so cute! I used pink petticoat christmas papers with these cards...

Then, I found this paper...a dovecraft cristmas paper, which I thought would be very cute with this winter thyme image. I bought this paper as pasrt of a pack, at Aintree craft show in May...and the pack was only £1!!!!

Again, Pink petticoat paper was enough for this image to stand out.... I love the fact that the message/ sentiment is there, ready, on the paper. One of my favourite christmas papers at the mo I think. Mind you, there are a lot of christmas papers that i like....some I haven't been able to cut into and use yet! xx

A proper start on my christmas cards....

I sat down on Sunday night, and made a start on my christmas cards!

I had bought some dovecraft papers at Aintree craft show in May and loved this christmas tree paper. I thought it went really well with this pink petticoat image that I have had for aaaaaages and never used!



Pink petticoat papers and one of last years images.... I think i got these too late to use last year, sand think they are sooo cute! (coloured with promarkers) I think the red flower is quite cute too.


Yet again...Pink petticoat papers and image... what a cute little donkey! (coloured with promarkers) I added a dot of liquid pearls on the little snowflakes, and used it on donkeys tail and hat too.

This is another card made using the dovecraft papers,...I didn't think this needed much more than cutting out the squares and mounting them to this 9 square shape. I might add a little glitter to this before I send it though :)

Thanks for looking!!! xxx

Gardeners wellie

Just a quickie tonight...made this gardeners wellie last night. Wanted to do something a little different with the wellie template, and came up with this. I am going to make a little bus wellie too, but couldn't find the paper I wanted to make that last night. The label is a little difficult to see, but it says "best wishes". All the gardeners items were cut on my bigshot. xx

My nieces birthday card

I asked my niece (who will be 6 on Saturday) what she would like on her card from me...she said "Pink, flowers, and a butterfly"....

This is what I came up with.... I used a paper i think i got in a poundshop. The nestie... my friend Pam cut for me, and she also let me stamp her little girl with a cupcake... Thanks Pam!!! I stamped the nestie with a stamp I have but hadn't got round to using yet. Oh, and Pam also gave me some card candy (from craftwork cards) which I used as the centre of flowers, with a little bit of stickles over the top to make them sparkle. I added a bigshot tag and wrote her name on. I also cut the butterfly on my bigshot...its a lovely quickutz die.

I hope she likes it! xx

I have been making some more handbag cards...

Well, the kast tiem I took my cards out to sell, a few weeks ago, I sold the last few of my handbag cards. One lady told me she had bought them from me before and kept looking out for my stall again, so she could buy some more...she bought the last three! So, while it's half term, I thought I would get loads of bits and bobs out and have a play. Here are the results.....

Hope you like them. I am pleased with them....especially seeing as I made the template myself!!
