Hey There……

Hello Dear Reader, i hope that this finds you well?  Now i know the next question will be where have you been?? I took a little blogging break with the end of school term and H’s birthday i had so much to do that something had to slip and this time it was blogging.  Now that the girls are on the last week of summer holidays i can start to get back to some normality.

In July i made a load of dairy free cupcakes with tiny bumble bees and flowers on top, a huge beehive birthday cakes again covered in bumble bees and an Elsa tutu dress {Frozen} as well as a bumble bee tutu dress, a set of invites, decorations and party games.

So lots of different crafts in July, but i have been stamping as always and have a card to share with you today

Its a very simple card that could be for anyone at any occasion, using the gorgeous grunge set and the word bubbly set {cant remember the names} from Stampin’ Up! Takes a few mins to knock a whole batch of these so you can keep them on hand in your card box.

Well until next time

Festive Friday….Holy Night {Week One}

Good Morning Dear Reader, thank goodness its Friday!! It has been a hectic week here, and the weekend is going to be even busier as it is Carnival Week {yes i said week!! we have an 8day carnival in this town!} and my Eldest is in the float procession tomorrow for the first time so we will be dotted around the route so that she sees one of her family at every point.
Well on to today’s project, i am sharing a festive project {see i didn’t use the C-word lol} I like to start my festive projects in July so that hopefully it doesn’t get overwhelming when we get into the winter.
So here is today’s card;

This card is lovely and quick so great for big batches, roll stamp notes over the back and then stamp the text stamp and layer up with the punched elements and voilà!
Until next time

Stippled Blossom Birthday Card

Morning Dear Reader, hope that you are well? Long time no type, but I am back and in the swing of blogging, so lets get started.

Today i am sharing with you a birthday card that i made recently for a card swap that i hosted.

I stepped completely out of my comfort zone and used yellow tones! I am not a lover of yellow but i thought it would make a nice change.  The colours used are So Saffron, Baked Brown Sugar and Crushed Curry.  I love this stamp set as it is a two-step stamp set which gives the images so much depth.  In my next post i will show you how i made this card.

Until Next time

Best of flowers …..

Morning Dear Reader, BBC Weather App tells me that it will be sunny all day here so i plan to empty my laundry basket and get it all smelling fresh on the line, i also need to get ready for a night with the Girls Brigade i will be helping them make Mother’s Day cards.

Here is a card that could easily be used as a Mother’s Day card or really any occasion if you just switch out the sentiment. 

This card uses one of the flowers from the Best of Flowers set i stamped it by eye {you could use a stamp-a-ma-jig} to create a monochrome background with staz on. Then i simply mounted it on a black card blank and with a pop of Melon Mambo for the sentiment banner it was done. A nice quick card, which i think is quite effective. What do you think?

Right on with that washing, have a good day.

Until next time

Birds of a Feather

Morning!  I went to a crop last weekend that i was also teaching a class at; now i don’t know about you but i just cannot pack lightly for crops my hubby snapped a picture of what i took before he loaded it into the car it took 4 trips!

So i have all the prepared materials for my class plus bits for me to join the crop after, i always seem to take loads as I'm never sure what I'll feel like doing i think i took 12 stamp sets in the end!

I did come up with a card design though after lunch using the Birds of a Feather Dsp.

How gorgeous is this paper?!?! this is just one of the designs that you get in the pack and you get 2 of each double sided sheet!  I used the ever on my desk Curly Cute stamp set for the sentiment.  What do you think?

I liked them so much that i made 5 more!  These will go in my box i like to have thank you cards on hand you never know when some one will do you a good turn and i like to say thanks.

Hello Baby…

Morning; we have just had the fab news that one of our dear friends is expecting in the new year so better time then to show  you some baby cards that i made earlier in the year?


This card uses the bundle of love stamp set which i stamped simply with basic grey ink and coloured with watercolour wonder crayons and a blender pen.  I also made some in blue.

The circles were punched with various sizes of circles and the large ones were run through the big shot with the perfect polka dots embossing folder and finished off with a few pearls.

Congratulations

Hello All, hope you are well? Now; as most people will have put their Christmas cards in the hands of the Royal Mail i thought i would move on from Christmas projects.
So here is a card i made for my lovely friend and upline Bekka when she reached a milestone with her business.

On a crumb cake base i spritzed with early espresso marker and then stamped the star from the scentsational season stamp set in various shades of brown and then stamped the sentiment from curly cute stamp set.  I then cut some stars from champagne glimmer paper with the holiday framelits to add a bit of bling.
