Happy 21st!

I don't usually craft from CDs in fact I've currently only got 2 - this Bebunni Birthday one and the Bebunni Love one but I just couldn't resist him.

You can't really see the 3 layers I painstakingly cut out by scapel but I can assure you they're there and layered onto bargain mirror card from Home Bargains.
Just a sentiment from Imagine That and some buttons from stash 

Papercreator Happy Birthday Challenge

 I love the over the edge cards from Papercreator they're so straightforward to print and cut but look so effective once they're all put together. Plus they're perfect for this month's challenge of Happy Birthday over at the Blog

I've taken the second photo to try and show some of the layers in the kit which is called Kitty - Triple Over the Edge Card and added a sentiment by Imagine that stamps and some buttons from my stash.

New Home

I'm still working through the pile of images that I printed off at least 18 months ago so here is a Bugaboo House with an Imagine that sentiment. I was going to cut some clouds out but couldn't be bothered lol!

Plain clean and neat - just what I like in a card. This one like most of my cards can be bought on eBay or at one of the fairs I'm attending this year have a look at the tab on my brand new gingham website for details

Happy Birthday Father-In-Law

It's my lovely father-in-laws birthday today and what else do you put on someone from Lewis' card other than the Callanish Standing Stones?
And a bit of embossing and a sentiment and voila!

1st of July Already!

Pinch Punch first of the month again already and I have a very quick card to share with you just an A5 card blank made from a sheet of card from my stash, some red to mat and layer, a sentiment from Imagine That stamps and this gorgeous Sassy Sally pre-coloured image called My Favourite kind of Weather from Papercreator.

Am loving these coloured images I hadn't coloured one myself for weeks until today will show you him tomorrow.............................

Caravan Card

My husband asked me to make a retirement card for someone at work who had just bought a caravan.
This topper set from Papercreator called Gone Camping was just perfect for what I wanted and was easily made to fit the A5 card so there was enough room for everyone to sign it.

A sentiment from Imagine that stamps and some papermania flowers with button centre and the card was sorted

With Sympathy

I really dislike making and sending this type of card but it's a necessity sometimes unfortunately.

papers are both by Michele Roos from Whimsy Stamps and sentiment by Imagine That stamps.
I resized the papers layered them onto black card to create a border and stamped the greeting.

HA!

Tall Child thought she'd got one over on my during the week. Conversation went a bit like this:

Me: I need to know what you want on the front of Hun's card
Her: Dunno what have you got
Me: Just about anything you can think of
Her: Ok (in smug voice) I want a purple cat holding a pint of beer
Me: How about this........................ and here it is courtesy of Digistamp Boutique

Paper is First Edition and sentiment is Imagine That Stamps

I got a bit carried away with this image this week - mainly coz it's a pre-coloured one so i didn't have to worry about going outwith the lines on such tiny images

So carried away in fact that I made 5 cards
