Hush a Bye Baby.

Evening all, another house mouse image!
such a cute little mouse asleep in the walnut shell,
I used crumb cake and pink pirouette paper.
The accent with the tiny tags was all that it needed.
Still lots of prep to do for my class, this is the
point where I start pulling my hair out,
fingers crossed I can come up with 2 more ideas!

Make a Wish.

This is a card we made at class, a cute C.C.design,
with SU paper and their fab daisy die, a little bit
 of bling and were done. Coloured using Promarkers.
I'm off to prep for class, enjoy the sunshine.

Time For Truffles.

 Morning all, I love this card!! how cute is this
Gruffie stamp? I think we've all had days like this
I've used bashful blue and so saffron card stock.
 These gorgeous flowers were created using one of
the SU punches and designer paper, as it's
double sided it's perfect for 3D items.
I then thread a pearl bead through the middle.
A closer shot of the image, you can't really see
it,but I glittered the word truffles.
LOVE IT!!

Wedded Bliss

 Good morning all, yes I am up at a ridiculous hour 
for a Sunday but that's just me.
Todays card is another house mouse image, I
absolutely love this image it's so easy to colour
and the way their little tails curl into hearts is so cute.
This is an 8x8 card so the image is quite large,
I've used baja breeze, crumb cake and choc chip
card stock mounted onto a pearlised base. 
 Some close up shots of sentiment and backing paper
both computer generated and I managed to achieve
the perfect match to the baja breeze.
A close up of the mice, love it!
Have a good Sunday.

Animal Appeal.

 A small 4x4 card using a whipper snapper image,
I've had this stamp for years and I've never used it!
I think this will now be a firm favourite of mine.
Now on to some punch art.
This super cute giraffe was created using SU
punches, a really cute card for young and old
alike even to welcome a new baby.
I'm off to do some crafting, lots of orders
to fill and the launch of the new catalogue
next week to prep for.
Enjoy your weekend.

Baby Bunny,

This is one of my favourite images, it's a Happy
hopper from Stampabilities. The colours look quite
strong but it was SU bashful blue with crumb cake 
designer paper and a choc chip mat on the back. 
I love to add the date time and weight to baby cards,
it's such a personal touch.
Hope you like it.

Pink Pink Everywhere.

 I think I must love pink!
It's a colour I'm comfortable with (you'd never guess)
This is a Greeting farm image and the dangly legs
are created by doing something very fiddly!
This one was for my neice another dangly leg one.
I'm not sure if the image is Greeting farm or C.C designs,
let me know if you want me to find out,
I don't have the energy to walk upstairs and look!
Have a great Tuesday.

First Birthday.

Created using my trusty Cricut and the cartridge
new arrivals. Used SU bashful blue card stock 
and so saffron designer paper, love it!

Princess Time.

Good morning all,
today we have a card created using
quickutz dies, now quickutz was my 
original love in card making, I've
only embraced stamping in the past
couple of years and originally struggled
with the flatness of stamping but now
I struggle with 3D!
I think my brain can only focus on
one style at a time but having looked
back through my photos I can't believe
I've pushed my QKs aside, time to blow
off the dust and get squeezing.
Have a great day.

Back At Last

 Well I'm back! after a nightmare with the computer, the whole
 system being wiped(new hard drive) and losing the photo editing 
package I'm hopefully back on a regular basis if I can make
an sense of the new photo editing thingy(I hate computers!!)
On to a card, this one was for my friend Lindsey.
Stamp is a greeting farm image, the friendship recipe is 
Lili of the valley, used the sizzix daisy die and an i-topper
 brad for the middle of the flower. Some black tulle
and a mascara charm from virgin at home!
One for my S-I-L which can be framed
a gift and a card in one, that's what we like.
AC.C. Design stamp and Martha Stewart punches.
I'll be back over the weekend with some more
goodies to show you.

Been Gone To Long!

My apologies for not posting,
my computer is sick and has 
had to go in for surgery so if the photos
are a bit dodgy then that will explain
why as I thought any post was better than no post!
 This was for one of my stamping starlets
who is always the life and soul of the class,
she can be very naughty at times
(you know you are Pat) but that's why
we love her company. 
 To go with the card was a matching gift bag,
Hope you like it Pat and had a great birthday.
This card was for another of my starlets,
Dianne isn't a fan of pink so I used 
chocolate chip and bashful blue, the image
is a greeting farm stamp, Cuttlebug alphabet
and Marianne die for the flowers.
I'll improve the photos when the computer
returns from surgery, please be patient
whilst I wait for it's return.
Have a great day.

Count Your Blessings.

 I have a family who regularly order cards from me
and it's usually for the same person, on this occasion
it was the grandson/great grandson/godchild/nephews
blessing day! it was a real challenge to come up with
four different ideas but well worth it. The top card is 
using the QK revolution teddy die and the point of the
star from the SU punch for the bunting. 
 This one is created using the Cricut new arrivals 
cartridge and I think the font is loop de loo on the lyrical
letters cartridge.
 The wonderful Penny black stamp,
And lastly Cricut for the name and baby,
the tags have the information about Ethan's day,
his godmother loves lilac, it looks brighter than it was.
