Serena's Birthday

Good morning friend's follower's and visitor's

I hope you are all well on another wet and windy day

just stay safe in this bad weather.

For this card I have used some free downloads that I got

along time ago but never got around to using them.

I started off with a 8"x 8" white card In which 

I covered with my backing paper.

I is so gorgeous this paper that it's a shame to cover it up.

I printed off my topper and I mat and layered it onto

white and pink card.

Before i down my backing paper I wrapped a piece of pink

lace around it. Then I add my topper to the top corner

trying not to cover too much of the background.

Next I cut out my flower's out of a pearl vellum 

which I think looks good.

I then added a gem into the centre of each flower.

To finish off with I tied a very large bow out of deep pink

ribbon. I added this to the bottom of my topper.

I then added a flower gem into the centre of the bow.

I got these from Primark it was a bracelet which I cut up

bargain at £2.00.

I then made two stick pins which I added the the bow it

just finishes it off.

That's all for now and I hope that you have a lovely day.

Many Thanks

Vicki's Birthday

Good morning friend's follower's and visitor's I hope you are

all well on this wet and dark morning.

I think winter is upon us now as it is freezing out there.

I'm so pleased I'm not going out in it.

Today's card is a large easel card But I must apologise for not

remembering the name of the dies as I have loaned them out to

a friend and I forgot to write the names down.

I love the shades of blue that I have used for this one it is

so delicut  and soft looking.

I really enjoyed making this one as it as been a nice change

from the vintage cards that I have been making.

Thats all for today and I hope that you all have a lovely 

weekend.

Many Thanks

The mad Scientist

Good Morning Ladies and Gents I hope you are all well

on this Wednesday morning Today I have another Male card

from the new kit called Ladie's and Gentlemen from the

wonderful Kraftyhands I think this kit is wonderful for the men in our

life's.

For this card I have made my own cogs from the Spellbinder's

cog dies. I cut them out on black card and then with some gold, silver

and bronze gilding wax's I just rubbed the wax on in different

places so that they look old and rusty.

I started with a 7"x 7" card which I matted it with some dark metal

looking card and then a mat from the kit.

Next I cut out my Topper and matted it on to the largest cog

which I added to the centre of my card.

I then added the other cog's to the top and bottom corner.

To finish with I added some pearls to the corners.

That's all for today and I thank you for taking the time to

stop by and comment I do really appreciate them.

Many Thanks

this morning and then to the craft room for the afternoon.

Today's card Is another one from the wonderful Kraftyhand's

New paper kit called Ladies and Gentlemen.

I must say that I hate making men's cards but I have found that 

I have loved making these cards as the Images and the papers

are wonderful and they all go with one another.

For this card I started with a 7"x 7" white card and I cut in to it

on the front I cut about a centimetre down from the top to a

centimetre from the open edge I then folded this back on

its self.

I inked around all the edges of the card I then added a 6"x 6" backing

paper from the kit to the front of the card.

I added a piece of backing paper to the inside of the card from my stash.

I cut out my topper and I matted it on to a piece of the

same paper as the inside.

I tied a very small bow for me lol and i added it to the top corner.

I also added a sentiment from the kit to the top corner.

To finish off with I added some pearls to the corner's 

of the folded back frame.

Butterfly Stepper card

Good morning all I hope you are all well this morning.

Today's card Is a stepper card that I have wrapped a piece 

of butterfly Acetate over my cream card.

It just adds a little mote dimension to the card this photo

doesn't really show it  up too well.

I started by scoring my Cream base card and than I scored my 

Acetate. where I scored my card at say 2in I scored my Acetate at

a fraction larger so that the acetate would sit perfect on the card.

I then added my topper to the centre step. And for the side steps

I cut a piece of gold card which I wrapped a piece of cream lace

around it. I then added them to the side of my topper.

I then added a pink flower on to the centre of the lace.

For the front of my card I glued a string of pearls across it

and I added a pink organza bow to the centre of the front .

To finish with I added glitter to my topper but I'm sorry it doesn't

show on the photo.

That's all for today and I thank you all for your continued

support.

And I hope that you all have a lovely day.

Many thanks

Here kitty Kitty

Good morning friend's follower's and visitor's

I hope you are all well this morning it's another cold and dull

morning here.

What are you all up to today I've got a busy morning as I

am being assessed to see if I can have a stair lift and a wet room

now that I have deteriorated as my spinal problem as got worse.

And then I must make some cards as it's my sons 22 birthday 

on Friday.

Any way back to today's card I've made a stepper card which

was a really quick card to do.

And the topper's are from a Kanban Kit that I got

along time ago so I thought it was about time I used some

of my older stash I stead of buying new as I have so much

stuff in my craft room that as not seen the light of day

since they were bought.

I hope that you all have a lovely day.

Many thanks

Window card

Good morning all I hope you all have had a lovely weekend.

I had a wonderful day on Saturday in York but I

were so tired when I got home that's why I didn't do a post

on Sunday.

On Sunday I went to the Ross craft show and got lots of

goodies so I have been sorting out my craft room and found these 

paper's so I thought that I would use them.

First of all I made a A5 card and on the front I used

a template to make the windows.

Next I folded another piece of blue card and I placed

it inside the card and I then lined a topper up so that it

were centred in the window.

I have glittered the topper but it doesn't show on

the photo.

I then cut a strip of card frond the same pack of card 

and I added this across the bottom.

And to finish with I added a sentiment at the top from my stash.

That's all for today and I thank you all for you continued 

support.

Many thanks

and the theme of it is Lots of Layer's.

And the cd that I have used was the Tots, teens and in betweens.

I started by printing off my topper and the card size is just a little larger 

than a A5 card.

After I printed off my image and cut it and then it hit me I hadn't

got any papers to go with it. And while I were going through

all my card boxes all 20 A4 of them I got to the last

one and found this dotty paper that I got from lidl and I just

couldn't believe how it matched the ribbon on her hat what a stroke 

of luck was that.

I cut several layers of mats and the top one I embossed

I then added my topper to the top half of my card.

I then cut a strip of card which I wrapped a piece of ribbon around.

I then tied a large bow which I added to the ribbon at the bottom.

And I added bow topper that I got from poundland I buy

cheap jewellery from Primark and poundland and cut them up.

To finish with I added some liquid pearls to the corners.
