Holiday In South Devon

 
 
 
Good morning all friends, followers, and visitor's
I hope you are all well and have you missed
while I'm on my Jolly Holiday's Here is
Sunny Devon.
It as been so hot that I look as though I've been
a Broad.
I've been to USA and I love it but I keep coming
back to Devon. The scenery is just out of this
world.
So I have put a few photo's that a took while
on the River at Dartmouth. The first photo is
of my little boat I WISH ha ha
 
Wouldn't  it be nice. And then my everyday run around
 
It must be nice to just mess about on the water.
It is a different life to what we have the Americans
just spend money like water.
 
The Next photo's are of the lovely scenes from
at tour boat it was about 80degrees that day and
me like a fool didn't put any cream on and I got
off looking like the colour of beetroot.
 



 
We also went to the world of marbles it were
lovely to see them make the marbles and to watch
them blow glass and make a gorgeous vase.
 




Now that I've board you with my holiday
pictures I will be back home on Saturday and
back to making my cards.
So I hope to see you then. I have tried to keep
following your blogs when I have been able to
get a good signal.
 
That's all for today as the sun is calling me.
 
Many Thanks
Debs xx

Ooh la la's #185 Christmas in july




 
Good Morning all I hope you are all well on
this Monday morning.
This is a quick post as I'm on holiday
in sunny Paignton Devon and we are having
a lovely time. I just didn't what to miss
the challenge so I bought my lap top with me
just in case it rained I would have something to
do. But the weather is wonderful.
 
Now back to the card.
 
Today is the start of a new challenge over
at Ooh La La
And today theme is Christmas in July
and it is Ann C that as chosen it today.
 
Today card is from the Yuletide wishes cd.
 
I started with a 5in square card which I mat
and layered it with 2 papers from the cd.
before I stuck the mats down I wrapped some
fine organza ribbon a round them
I then added them to the card.
 
Next I printed off my topper and I mat and layered
it with papers from the cd.
I then added it to the top corner of my card.
I then made a sort of bow like a parcel bow
I then added it to the bottom corner.
 
I then die cut two snow flakes out of gold mirri
card and white card.
I then added these to the centre of my bow.
 
That's all for today and I thank you so much
for your support. and I will love to return the
favour and visit you if you have a active blog.
 
Many Thanks

Good morning all I hope you are all well
and thank you for stopping by.
 
I would just like to welcome
Roberta Sharpe
to my blog
Roberta if you have a blog could you
leave me a link to it thank you.
 
It's so wrong im making Christmas cards and
it's red hot out side.
I hope it's going to be as nice as yesterday.
I sat reading my book for 1 hour yesterday and
it didn't feel that hot but it got my nose.
At least I've started my tan off as we
have only got two more sleeps and then it's
holiday time.
 
Any way back to todays card I have used a
Spellbinder's Christmas border from 2013
Christmas dies.
And a spellbinder's poinsettia die also from 2013.
 
I framed my image with the spellbinder's
Floral Ovals die set.
 
And my topper is from Hobby art and it's
called Let it snow.
 
The sparkler on my bow is from a necklace
from primark it was £2 and I got 15 sparkler's
from it.
It's worth just having a look in primarks
jewellery to cut up.
 
That's all for today and I thank you so
much for your continued support.
And the lovely comments that you keep
leaving me.
 
I hope you all have a lovely day
Many thanks

Good morning friend's follower's and visitor's
I hope you are all well on this Tuesday morning
the weather doesn't look too bright this morning
we had shower's yesterday so lets hope
we have a better day.
 
Todays card is made from one of the topper's
that I got from Doncaster show it is from
Hobby Craft and I love their products.
It's not the traditional colours but I do like it.
 
For this card I used Sue Wilson's Snowflake
border and tag die set. for the sentiment and
the border.
 
The frame for the topper is from Marianne die's
 
And the poinsettia is from Spellbinders.
And the fern is from Sue Wilson.
 
The ribbon is from a job lot from ebay and when
it came I wasn't too sure about it but I think
it fits this card perfectly.

show at Doncaster yesterday. I did really

some lovely goodies.
This image is of the things I got from
Hobby House.
 
I started off with a round scalloped on
which I added three layers of mats.
I used the spellbinders grand circles die set.
 
Before I added my topper I glittered the
the wings of the angel. I then added this to the
centre of the card.
I then cut some poinsettia's out of red card.
And I then added these to the side of my topper.
And I cut two leafs out of green card and I then
glittered them and then I added these

Parchment Butterfly




 
 
Good morning all hope you are all well

It looks like its going to be another lovely day.
 
What are you all up to today Im going to the
summer crafting show in Doncaster today
I'm only going for a look cos I've not got
much money t spend cos its our holiday next week.
 
Back to todays card I were just having a play
yesterday with parchment. It's been
a while since I had done any and this is a
really easy one if you want to have ago.
 
I started of with a 8"-8" white card and I
covered it with a piece of paper that as a
border all the way around.
Then I punched a mat for the centre of the card.
Then I cut a mat t fit on the my punched mat.
 
Next I made my butterfly out of parchment twice
so it made it look as though it is fling.
I then added it to the centre of my card.
 
I then made a smaller one that I added to the
top corner.
And to finish off with I added a sentiment
to the top corner and some gems to the butterfly.
 
That's all for today and thank you for the
lovely comments you keep leaving me.

Birthday Ted




 
Good morning all I hope you are all well
on this Saturday morning this time next week
I will be on my way on holiday.
I hope you all have a lovely weekend and
finger's crossed the weather will be good.
 
Todays card is for a challenge and the theme
was peel offs so I think I may have gone
a little over the top with them.
I started with a 8"-8" scalloped
card and I folded the front back on itself.
so the top corner is folded to the bottom corner
if you know what I mean.
I then added some ornate peel offs all the
way around the edges.
I cut a square of card and covered it with
my backing paper.
I then lined it up in the centre of my card
so when the card is closed it's in the centre.
I then added some ornate corner peel offs.
I then printed off my image and cut it out with
a scalloped circle die.
I added this to the centre of my topper.
To finish with I added a sentiment peel off
just below the image.
 
That's all for today and thank you for taking
the time to stop by.
 
Many thanks

21st birthday




 
 
Good morning all we I cant believe its
Friday already it seems to have flown.
I hope you are all well and if not I send you
big crafty hugs.
And I hope you all have a lovely weekend.
I may be missing some of the day next week
as I must get sorted for the holiday it seems to
have come around so quickly. And now I cant
wait to get there.
 
I must apologise about this card I made it
awhile ago and I have forgot what dies
I have used.
I made this card for a friend and her favourite
colours are teal.
 
I cur the border's 4 times and 2 in each colour.
I added them to the side of my card front.
I wrapped a piece of cream lace around the side
wear I had added the borders it just
covers the joins.
 
I made my sentiment on the pc and I printed it off
in teal ink just to tie in with the colour.
I added this to the centre of the front of the card.
 
I then cut a flourish out of teal card and I then
added some paper flower's to the corner
of the card.
I then tied a bow out of teal seam binding
that I added to the bottom of he flower's.
 
To Finish with I added a silver butterfly
and some gems to the flourish.
 
That's all for today and I hope you all have
a lovely weekend.
And thank you for taking the time to
leave me your lovely comments.
 
Many Thanks
