Little B's Hearts





 
 
Good morning all friend's follower's and visitor's
I hope you are all well on this Wednesday morning.
I wonder what kind of weather we are going
to get today as i'm fed up being cold.
Well we had a hour longer a sleep before all
the noise started again we new there would be trouble
in the night when she went down the road at tea
time talking to her self and she'd had plently
to drink.
But at least we had a hour longer a sleep.
 
Any way back to todays card I have a Easel card
for you today and the Bow's are back.
I started by making a Easel card and I covered
it with a peach card. and then a cream one that
I embossed it with a rose folder.
I then cut out the hearts with the Little B's dies.
Out of peach and cream I stacked them up
and I added them on to the side of my card back.
 
I them cut my sentiment out and I added this
on to the top of the hearts. This I cut several
of the Aster die set out of peach and cream.
I made them up and I added them to the side of
my topper.
 
Next I wrapped a large piece of peach lace
around the bottom of my card.
I got this lace from the range and I thought it
were a bargain at £1.99 for 2 metres as you get
4 half metres of different designs.
 
I then tied a large bow out of peach Organza
ribbon and I added it to the centre of my lace to
act as a stopper. I then cut a tiny flower to
add to the bow.
 
To finish out with I added some gems to the
corners and the to flower's.
 
That's all for today and I thank you for joining
me in my little bit of blogland.
And I also thank you for all your comments
you leave me. I do really appreciate them.
 
Many Thanks

the centre of my topper. and the smallest one
on to the side of my lace.

Good morning all friend's, follower's, and visitor's
I hope you are all well on this Thursday.
I don't know where this week as gone. where did
Monday Tuesday and Wednesday go.
 
Well I've had a good nights sleep at last and I think
everyone on the street as had one too.
I don't know how long it will last.
 
For today's card I were asked for a large card
so a lot of people could sign it. So I made
a A4 card.
I started with my base card that I cut mats
in peach and white and I embossed them
with a wild rose embossing folder.
before I stuck them down I wrapped a
piece of peach lace 3/4 down the card.
 
Next out of peach card I cut the Caribbean Island
background from Sue Wilson.
Using foam tape I added this to the top f my card.
Next I cut the Portuguese Porto die set out
of peach and white card.
I layered them up with foam tape and I then added
them to the Background.
 
Next I cut the new happy birthday die that's
by Sue.
I then added this between my topper and my lace.
I then cut the Majestic Monarch butterfly
out of white card and I added it to the centre
of my topper.
 
With white card I cut the new Maidens hair fern
from Sue 5 times.
 
I then cut several daisy die out of white and peach.
I layered the largest one I added to the bottom of my card.
I also added some of the fern to this flower.
I then added two flowers to the two corners of
my topper and I added fern to both flower's.
 
To finish off with I added some gems to the
centre of each flower.
 
That's all for today and I hope you like
what ive done. And If you should leave me any comments

Portuguese Easel card.





 
 
Good morning all my friend's follower's and visitor's
I hope you are all well.
I would just like Kevin as my newest follower.
I hope you enjoy visiting.
 
Jenn had hair done yesterday now all grey
covered for a few weeks. Ha Ha.
It's your turn today to get rid of yours lol.
 
I wonder what kind of day we are going to have
today cos I'm now fed up with this wind.
I hate it when it's windy as it does so much
damage.
Well I'm writing this with match sticks in my
eyes as I've been up since 2am due to one
stupid woman down the street she's on drugs and
every night for the last 2 weeks she as had all
the street up with her shouting and dancing
up the road with nothing on and it's not a nice site.
 
Then the Ambulance. police and fire brigade came
and took her away. And then it starts all over
again tomorrow.
 
Anyway after my moan I'll get back to the card.
 
I started with a 8"-8" Easel card.
I cut some mats in blue and white.
I cut my centre piece by cutting the Portuguese
Background out in blue and white I matted
them all up using foam tape.
I added it to the top of my card.
 
I cut Gemini border out in blue 3 times.
I added one to the top of my card so it is over
hanging the top edge.
I added one just below the centre piece.
And the third one on the bottom to act
as my stopper.
 
I then cut several Daisy flower's out of
blue and white.
I added one to the centre of my topper and
one to the centre of my stopper.
I were really pleased with the way this came out.
 
That's all for today and I hope to see you
back here tomorrow and have a lovely day.
 
Should you leave me any comments I thank you
so much. And I would love to return the favour.
But if you don't have a blog then
I thank you for taking the time to comment.
 
Many Thanks

Lattice Arched Adornment








 
Good morning All friends, follower's, and Visitor's
I hope you are all well on this Tuesday morning.
What are you all up today.
Anything exciting.
I'm off to the hairdressers  for a little pampering.
I go every Tuesday morning as she is my friend
and with me being disabled.
 I cant wash my hair myself so I have it washed and she
pleats it.
 so I don't have to mess with it and I don't
lie but it stays in till next week and it doesn't
move at all. I've got to say on a Tuesday when
I go back you would think I'd just had it done.
And it's a shame to take it down but it does
need washing.
 
Now back to today's card I started off with
a A5 tent card.
cut two border's  with the Sue Wilson
French collection border's and tags die set.
 
After cutting them I added them back on to my card
with the petals facing in. if you know what I mean.
 
Next I cut two mats out of lilac and white card.
I then cut the new Lattice Arched Adornment
dies from Sue Wilson.
I cut it 4 times. I added 2 down the centre
and then 1 in the centre the opposite side.
I then cut 1 in half and I added these to the top
and bottom of my centre one.
When you have done it. It should look like a snake lol.
 
Next I cut 3 flower's out with the
Elizabeth crystal flower die you can get it from
I cut them out several time out of lilac and
white card. I mounted them up and I added
them to my card front.
 
I then cut the Sue Wilson Maidenhair fern die
out 4 times on which I added to the flower's.
 
To Finish off with I added three paper flower's
to the centre of my flower's.
 
For this card I used the
Sue Wilson dies:
Lattice Arched Adornment die
The Maidenhair fern die
Which you can get from
 
And the flower's are from
Elizabeth dies and this flower is called
Crystal flower.
And you can get this from
 
That's all for today and if you leave me any comments
then I thank you so much.
And if you have a active blog then I
that you so much and I will return the favour

Portuguese Porto and lace




 
 
Good morning all I hope you are all well
on this Sunday morning.
I don't know about you but I'm fed up
with being cold I'm sure we should be having
some warmer weather. I even put the heating
on last night.
Lets hope we have a better day today.
What are you all up to today any
thing nice.
I'm going to try and wash my lounge carpet
if it's a dry day or should I say George is
going to wash carpet not me. But I wish I
could but with being Disabled I'm limited
in what I can do.
 
Anyway back to todays card I thought I would
show this card to see what you think of it
as I'm not sure about it. There's just something
just not right and I cant put my
finger on it.
 
It is a A5 tent card which I used the
New Sue Wilsons Gemini Die Pyxis down
both sides of the front.
I then cut a mat out of pale blue and I used
the outer die to cut the same design to the
border.
 
Next I cut all the layers from the Portuguese Porto
die set in white and pale blue. I then
stacked them all up using doublesided
foam tape.
Then I cut the new Configuration die called
Lattice Arched  Adornment twice out of white
card
I then attached them to the top and bottom
of my centre piece. It just make the dies look
a little different.
 
I then added this to the centre of my card.
Next I cut my flower out of white and blue
several time which I added to the
centre of my topper.
 
To finish off with I cut three butterflies
which I added at random places.
You must be fed up of seeing butterflies
as I'm just in a faze where every thing as
to have one.
 
I would just like to say thank you for your
continued support and comments it makes it
worth while doing a blog.
And I have made some wonderful friends in
blog land.
 
Many thanks and Have a lovely day.
