Two cards

Morning all

I made this card this morning whilst watching the Scotland v Argentina rugby match. I love it when the rugby world cup is on although I wish it didn't start at some ridiculous hour of the morning. Roll on four years time when the world cup comes to England :-)
Yes, this is another Krista Smith image (Mmmm, I'm not addicted at all am I?!?!?!). She has been coloured with Promarkers and the papers are from Magnolia. The swirl and the fence are Magnolia Doo Hickey dies and the ticket is made using the stamp and die from Whimsy stamps.

This card is an invite I made yesterday for my grandaughters 1st birthday which is in November. Now I only have 12 more to make, lol. I have used a Tilda image, coloured with ProMarkers, papers from stash, the flowers are cut using a Crealies die, the heart swirl is a Magnolia Doo Hickey die and the doily border and butterflies are cut using Martha Stewart punches. Thats it for now

Artistic Godess


Hi all
Hope all is well in bloggerland ;-) No, the artistic godess in not moi (wish it was!), lol, it's the name of the stamp from Sugar Nellie. I was lucky enough to get this stamp at Stamperama in August and it was only £2.75....Bargain!
Anyhooow...... This card is made using papers from the First Edition Sweet Owl paper pad, all distressed (think I am going a bit overboard on the distressed look and it's turning into the dirty look, he he) with Tim Holtz old paper distress ink. Think I need to make a 'clean card' next, lol.

I'm Late

Hi all

Hope you are all well and have had a good Thursday. This card is a bit different for me, but I thought I would give the distressed look a bit of a go. The rabbit is from Mo Manning and the watch is free clipart from the web. The papers are from Magnolia and the circle has been cut using a Nestie. The swirl is a Marianne creatables one and the sentiment was printed on my PC.
I also thought I would show you two of the pictures from the scarecrow festival that I went to at the weekend just so you could get an idea of what I was waffling on about.


Something different I suppose, but in a funny sort of way, it's a sort of crafting, lol

The paper is part of a Papermania paper pack, the flowers are from Wild Orchid crafts and the circle has been cut using a Spellbinders Nestability.

Kenny K happy anniversary


Evening all

How long did it take me to get home tonight??????? 2 and a half hours! The M25 was just horrendous. Why is it that just because it is the Friday before a bank holiday, everyone has to drive like nutters and crash?
This card I made for my mum and dad's 41st wedding anniversary. I thought that the picture may remind them of when they were young and were hanging out in the coffee bars in the 1960's, lol.
The images is from Kenny K and coloured with ProMarkers. The backing paper is just strips of black and white card, stuck together and I used a border punch for the scalloped edge.

Goodbye Tilda

Hi all

What a wet and miserable day?!?!?!?!? What happened to summer? I made this card for someone that was leaving work. The papers were from my stash and I used a Tilda stamp and a Tilda path stamp that have been coloured with Promarkers. The flowers and the boder were cut using Tim Holtz dies. The butterfly was cut using a punch. Sorry I am not very good with the finer details.
I must just appologise for not commenting on peoples blogs, but I tried to do it and it was telling me that my account doesnt exit. Not quite sure how it cant exist if I am logging in to my blog, but then again I dont understand these things, lol. Once hubby sorts it out, I'll get round to commenting.

A card at last

Hi all

At last, I am back :-) Sorry for the absence but life just got in the way. I won't bore you with the details, we will just pretend that I never went away, lol. Hope you are all well in blogland and I intend to get catching up on all of those lovely blogs out there.
I am trying to be organised and get my Christmas cards started. This one is made using a Magnolia stamp and Magolia papers. The large snowflake was cut out using a Sizzix die and then covered in glitter (which I got all over me and the dog, lol). The smaller snowflake is cut out using a punch and has also been "glittered" and in the middle is a brad that I got from Hobbyhouse crafts.
Although I have been away from blogland, I have still been making cards, so I'll have to put them on my blog as and when. Mmmm, I shouldnt have said that and then I could have pretended that I was a mean keen card making machine that just churns out cards one after the other, he he.
