Cupcake!

The lovely Tracey from Cardmaker's Delight sent me some more toppers, but i have just been so busy lately, with one thing or another, i haven't had a chance to make anything with them!  But i did make this a little while ago, but never got round to blogging it, until now.

 I don't think i have ever used a Swing card before, but i love them and have had these blanks for ages!

I used the cupcake topper for the front

 And a Hunkydory sentiment for the inside.

The papers are from Craftwork Crafts

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The Dew Drops are from Crafty Emma's Store, which is closing down at the end of this week!!

I hope you like it and thanks for looking.

 I have another card to show you using toppers from Cardmaker’s Delights!

This time using this cupid.

Now, this topper is quite vintage and as my regular followers will know, vintage isn’t really my ‘thing’ so i thought i would try and take it out of vintage and make it more my style.  I’m not sure if i have done what i was aiming for though. 

The paper is First Edition. 

The star is from First Edition Sweet Owl range

The panel at the bottom is embossed using a papermainia folder.

Pearls and ribbon are from my stash

Royal Britannia! from Cardmaker’s Delights

Well hopefully you saw my post yesterday about Cardmaker’s Delights toppers? 

Well here is another one, this time being very British!

I am sure you would have seen the ‘Keep Calm…………’ signs around, well the lovely Tracy has made this fab topper, which is fab for us Brits at the moment, what with the Queen’s Jubilee and the Olympics being held in London, this year.

 

The card itself is a Back to Basics blank. 

The paper is from Papermania’s Portabello Road range.

The Pearls are from Colour Connection.

The Cardstock is Daler Rowley.

I was thinking last night, these toppers would be great for ATC’s and SMASH booking, am i right?

Cardmaker’s Delights

The other night i was browsing the internet as you do when it is 1am and you can’t sleep and came across a website called Cardmaker’s Delights

Now on this website you will find a wide variety of Toppers, from vintage to Christmas to cute kittens to shabby chic!

The owner Tracy is a lovely lady and sent me some to try out. 

Well when i received my parcel, there was a dozen toppers in there and they are all different and are fantastic quality! The card they are printed on is a good weight and thickness, not at all flimsy.  And i have found out today that Tracey designs these herself, i am in total awe of them.

When i sat down to make this card, it took me absolutely ages to decide on the paper, i wanted to do the topper justice and everything i picked up just seemed too busy but i came to this one which i believe is K & Co (but i could be wrong!)  I wanted to make the topper stand out and not ‘crowd’ it so i just kept it simple.

The birdcage is a Tim Holtz die cut that i was sent by my secret Santa.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The butterflies are a punch.

The pearls were in my stash.

I really hope you like it and that i have done the topper justice, they really are fab!

Be sure to pop over to Cardmaker’s Delights to see the variety.
