Sending Big Hugs

Hi There Crafty Friends 😀

This is the last card I made for the project in Papercraft Essentials Magazine June 22 edition.

Its a little hard to see in the photo but this is a shaker card. 

I really enjoyed making this set of cards using Paper Boutique Celebration Gnomes collection.

Bye for now

From Our House to Yours

Hi Crafty Friends 😊

I made this cute easel card using Paper Boutiques Celebrations Gnomes collection. 

This card was part of a project I created for Papercraft Essentials June 2022 edition.

I just love the bright colours in this kit and adding  a balloon die really finished the card off .

Bye for now.

Happy Mothers Day

 Hi Crafty Friends 😊😊

I made this card for my dear 86 yr old Mum who loves Daffodils.

I cut a scalloped edge die to make a topper then used a cloud stencil and distress ink to make the background.  I added some grass which was a die that I had in my stash.   The Daffodil  die is from Lawn Fawn and I just love it .    My Mum  was thrilled with the card.💕

Happy Birthday

 Hey Crafty Friends 😊

I saw a friend of mine Laura Williams who is a demonstrator on Create & Craft demonstrating this kit from Hobby House. I loved the colour pallet and  the flower toppers so of course had to place an order. The kit is called Parisian Poppy Collection and it is so pretty.

Thinking of you

 Hello Crafty Friends 😊

Today I'm going to share a card I made using Paper Boutique Sweet Treats Paper Kit.

I added some ribbon and flowers which I got from from Create & Craft  a few years ago which matched the papers perfectly.  Don't you just love finding bits and bobs that you have had a while that match your project. 😁

I got a request to make a card for a neighbour who was having a special birthday.  

She loves birds so I used the Spellbinders April Card Kit of the month ephemera and paper.  I used an embossing folder I had in my stash to emboss the pink cardstock and to make the card pop a bit more I layered onto holographic card stock

Wishing you the happiest Birthday

Hi Crafty Friends 😊

I made a very quick card today.  I forgot a friend's birthday so thank goodness I had the Spellbinders April Card Kit of the month. Its so handy to have this kit for emergencies.

I have used glossy accents on the oranges but it does not show up  so well on the photograph unfortunately. I really like the colours and ephemera in this kit.

Hi Crafty Friends. 😊

 I am sharing a card I made with the Spellbinders April Small Die of the Month.

How pretty is this card.  I mounted the card onto some black card stock which really made it pop.

 I am going to make a few more of theses cards in different colour ways. I think  they will bring a smile to the recipient's face and will take pride of place amongst those shop bought birthday cards.

Happy Bithday Fun Fold

 Hello Crafty Friends 😊

I thought I would make a fancy fold card and forgot I had the window card die from Creative Craft.

It was the first time I had used it and was really pleased at the result. 

I decided to use the Spellbinders Mini Blooms Die Set to decorate the front panels and decorate with Spellbinders April Card Kit.

If you have any fancy fold dies that you use, please let  me know. I think I will be adding a few more to my collection😉

Cute Puppy Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends.😊

Don't you just love a cute puppy face and this paper kit from Paper Boutique is the cutest.

The kit is called a Puppy's Life and the toppers and papers are so lovely. I did use some different papers this time as I had just bought a paper pad from First Edition called Sweet Nothing which I really wanted to use and found they matched the puppy topper. The flowers are die cut with Spellbinders Mini Blooms.

 

This card was sent to my friend in Scotland and she loved it.

Bye For Now
