Parchment Butterfly

 

 

Good morning all hope you are all well

and having a lovely weekend.

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.

 

Many thanks

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

big crafty hugs.

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.

Christmas Box Card

Front

Front

Inside

 

Good morning all I hope you are all well

on this Thursday morning I'm hoping we get

a better day than the ones we have just add

as it as rain for the last two days.

 

I looks like I will be spending most of the

 morning at the garage as my car as of a rattle

some ware and we are going on holiday next

week. Plus yesterday I got a letter from Nissan

say there is a fault on some of the new cars.

So it's to have that checked.

You pay all that money and then it as to go

back in for faults this is the second time

since I got it and its a brand new car.

 

Anyway back to the card for today I've used

last years Hunky-dory toppers.

 

I started by making a 8"-8" white box card.

I decorated the front of the card with the toppers

from hunky-dory.

Next I decorated the inside of the box card

and after I decorated the inside I added a piece

of Acitate to make it like glass'

 

Then to finish it off I added lots of the poinsettia's

around the frame and a red bow to

the front of the box I enjoyed making this

card as I just could play about with it.

 

Anyway that's all for today and I thank you all

for all the comments you leave me. It makes

it all worth while doing my blog just knowing

that you get some pleasure seeing my cards.

 

Many thanks

With Deepest Sympathy

Good Morning all friends follower's and visitor's

I hope you all well on this Tuesday morning.

I have a wonderful Birthday and

I were taken out for lunch

by my wonderful son Jack and his lovely

girlfriend Laura and we all had a great time.

It was just lovely to spend some time with Jack

as he's got such a busy social life as 21yrs have.

So it was nice just to have a

sit and chat. But like all 21yrs

 As long as you feed then there happy lol.

 

Any way back to todays card I were asked

to do this for a neighbour and I were really

pleased with the way it turned out.

 

For the topper it is from Hunkydory's

Little book of poems.

 

And the die is from Sue Wilson and it the

classic Adorned Rectangles

 

And the cross is a Tattered Lace die.

 

And the lace is from my stash. And I would

Just like to say that the bow looks

like it's white ribbon but it is cream I

tried everything to get it look alike cream

but the camera wasn't having it.

 

Anyways that's all for today and I would

like to thank you all for your continued

support.

 

Many Thanks

Anyway back to todays card I used a image

that came free in a magazine I don't often

cut them out by using the Spellbinders

Grand decorative circles dies.

And the image I used the stately circles die set.

 

I added some paper flowers all down one side

and I tied a double bow out of green and lemon

A touch of romance

 

 

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

I hope you are well on this Thursday morning.

It's the 2nd of july and it looks as though

we are going to have another hot day.

 

But I hope it's not as hot as yesterday I can sit in

the sun but it were too hot for me.

And we even had a thunder storm but it didn't

clear the air.

Anyway back to today's card it is another quick

card.

I started of by printing my image off and some

backing paper's.

I started with a 8"-8" white card and I covered

it with some pink satin board.

I the cut my image out and I added this to the centre

of my card.

Using the Spellbinder's grand square dies

I cut a frame out of the backing paper's.

Using doublesided foam tape I added this to

my card.

I then cut two flower's and two of the fern

foliage from Sue Wilsons dies.

I added these to the top corner of the frame.

 

To finish off with I tied a large bow out of

a dusky pink ribbon.

Using my hot glue gun I added this to the bottom

corner of the frame.

I then add a gem butterfly to the centre of the bow.

 

That's all for today and I hope that you all have

a lovely day but don't get burnt if you go out in the sun.

A touch of vintage

 

 

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

I hope you are all well on this Wednesday.

Well it looks like we are in for another hot day

like yesterday.

I couldn't believe how hot it was I can sit in the sun

it doesn't bother me but I couldn't do with

it yesterday when I got in the car it were 29.

And they have forecasted it hotter today.

 

Today's card is a really quick card I started

with a 8-8 off white card.

which I cut a piece of patterned vintage

paper but before I glued it down I wrapped a

piece of dusky lace around the top of the card.

 

I then glued it down next I mat and layered it

with pink and cream card.

using double sided foam tape I added it to the

top corner of my card front.

 

Next using some pearlescent velum I cut

my flowers with the Asta die set.

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

 

To finish the card I tied a large bow out of

Dusky pink satin ribbon.

I added this to below my topper. I then made

two hatpins for the bow and I then added a gem flower

on to the centre of the bow.

 

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

all the lovely comments that you have been

leaving me.

Just be very careful if you go out in the sun.

Just don't get burnt.

 

Many Thanks
