Some more

Cards made while I've been away

Well I've been away for a weeks holiday and just had to take some crafting things with me, so here are some of the cards made this past week, these are all done with the designs from FGS Designs.

Sundays efforts

Well the first one is just for Chrissie, see earlier comment on previous post. The others are just a couple of things I've been doing today, no greetings as yet but will finish them when I know what they are going to be for.

Todays effort Saturday 3 May

Well decided to have a play with the new cd's and here are some of the results.

My time to craft challenge this week is babies, find details here http://mytimetocraftchallenge.blogspot.com/ this is done with some stamps I bought before I really started crafting. embossed in gold then painted as is the sentiment. I have just finished it off with a feather cos I love them.

I think you may be able to guess the reason for this card, not the best picture in the world but hopefully you will be able to see it well enough.

This card also links into the challenge from http://scrummystashcafe.blogspot.com/ who's theme this week is anything baby related.

Well I really must learn to read! I did a pink one first but now have got my act together and here is my offering for Rainbow lady's challenge - find details here http://rainbowladyschallengeblog.blogspot.com/

This weeks challenge was to use one of the colours of the rainbow, well in my fairyland mind pink should be there but it's not so have used violet, I have painted some tapestry card with H2o's then stamped a couple of images from a serendipity stamp set in black and embossed with a sparkle powder, used my crop-a-dile to punch a hole and used some co-ordinating ribbon and eyelet. Hope this is ok don't usually do ATC's but we have to try new things sometimes.

This is done for the Cute card Thursday challenge Girls just wanna have fun, find the details here http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/. I've done this with the Papernation papers and once again the letters are cut using the Cuttlebug.

Well I've never known so many people getting engaged, married, re-married or now renewing vows. These two cards once again done with the glitter girls boards and the fantastic tapestry card from Joanna Sheen, were only ordered two days ago soI am amazed I had time to do them.

I have another wedding card to do in the next day or so but it will be totally different then yet another one like these two, I find them so easy to make but everyone thinks they look really good. Makes a change from spending hours and making a mess.

Been using Flora Doodles again, just felt like playing rather than doing something for a special reason.

The challenge from Rainbow Lady this week is to use beads on your creation, hope this fits the bill. I have made a shaker card and filled with glass beads, I have also stuck glass beads to the centre of each flower.

You can find details of the challenge here http://rainbowladyschallengeblog.blogspot.com/, go on have a go.

You Make My Day

This award was given to me a week or so ago by Rainbow Lady, I sometimes struggle with how to do things so have only just got around to putting it on here. I have to give this to three people now but where do I start, there are so many people whose work inspires me so if I've missed anyone I'm sorry.

http://craftblog.craftybutterfly.co.uk/ Wendy always a source of inspiration.
http://chrissiescreations.blogspot.com/ Chrissie such a clever card maker.
http://rainbowladyscraftyblog.blogspot.com/ Finally Rainbow Lady is getting it back because for me she is the start of the blogging and joining in with the challenges, even if I don't do many. A great inspiration, very clever and a lovely person.

I've made this for the Cute Cards Thursday Challenge http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/, this week it is things with wings, not sure how far this little lady will get but she sure loves herself! This picture is from http://www.pccrafter.com/pchugclub/ as a free download, she has been backed onto an embossed sheet made with the happy birthday folder from Cuttlebug and finished off with a Flora Doodle from Joanna Sheen.

I've finally decided on a card for one of my swaps, struggled a bit even though it was an easy topic. I seem to like quite plain things so this is in the same vein, I do hope my swap partner likes it.

The card is made from black silk mirri board and white tapestry card both bought from Joanna Sheen, also the Flora Doodle flower came from the same place. The little black dress I cut out of the same card as the base layer and just popped some self adhesive pearls on it. The letters are done with the old favourite the cuttlebug, it doesn't show very well but there are pearls in the corners of the base layer.

I made this card for my newest great neice Chloe Melody, I have so many "greats" I am beginning to feel realy old.

This card also fits in with the challenge made by Rainbow Lady to include a fairy, you will find details here http://rainbowladyschallengeblog.blogspot.com/

Hope you like my effort and please tell me I'm not THAT old!!!

Cuttlebug and Flora Doodles

I have been having a play with my Cuttlebug folders and Sakura pens, just wanted to show off the embossing so used the de-bossed side and coloured with the pens. Put it all together and still think it looks a little out of balance, I should have put the flower near the top. Oh well we live and learn.
