I have a Christmas card for you using Baby Bea's Christmas (TeddyBea _177) from Teddy Bo.com

I cut baubles from pink glitter card and the words Santa's Little Helper from white glitter card both on the silhouette portrait.

The bow and gems are from my stash.

Thanks for looking and hope you like it

Not too sure on the paper as it was in my stash.

I'm Baaaack!

Hi everyone, 

Long time since i last blogged. So where have i been?

Well i stopped making cards for about a year and went onto Jewellery making, but then about 3 weeks ago someone asked me to make her some cards, so i thought OK i will give it a go and see how i feel.  I think i might have my mojo back! (touch wood)

I won't be making them religiously or putting myself under pressure to do them but i will do some for fun and a couple of orders i have.

Entries into challenges are below

Well anyway here are what i made:

First up is an Easter card, made using this Wee Stamps cutie, coloured with promarkers.

The paper is from Forever Friends Spring collection.

Next is a Mother's day card which here in the UK is on Sunday 10th March.

I used one of my favourite companies, Teddy Bo, I'm not too happy with my colouring but it is done using Promarkers.

The papers are Me To You and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Another Easter card here using this sweet image from Grandma Pearls blog ages ago.  Coloured with promarkers .

I'm not sure where the papers are from.

Clean and simple for the next one using this freebie from Stamp Fairy, coloured with promarkers.

And last but not least is this cutie from Di's Digis. Coloured with promarkers.  The paper is Forever Friends (i think) and Boofle (i think)

Well i hope you like my newest cards and it would be great to have some feedback.

2 Teddy Bo cards

Over at Teddy Bo Challenges, they are having a DT Call, well i am a huge fan of Teddy Bo, although i don't always get time to post my cards on my blog, so to enter the call i decided to make 2, one more elaborate and one very clean and simple!

There is a sketch to follow too which i love! 

For the first card i decided to the banners on the side

 Teddy Bea is coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.  The little heart on her arm and the buckles on her boots are embellished with gems.

The papers were sent to me in a swap a while ago.

 The flowers are from Dottie 4 Crafts, their flowers are soooo cheap!

The pins are from Crafty Emma's Store 

The sentiment is a Forever Friends one

The second card i made was to keep the sketch wide open.  

 

Teddy Bo is coloured with promarkers

The paper is First Edition Hideaway

The yellow paper was a scrap i had.

The sentiment is a Forever Friends one too.

I am doing a tutorial on Teddy Bo which should be up in the next day or 2 and i will be doing a cloud one too, so look out for them.

Thanks for looking.

5 Card Orders! - Warning LONG POST!

A few months ago a friend asked me to make her 5 cards for her 3 children' christening, which is today (i hope it all goes well) She wanted 3 for the godparents and 1 for her mum and 1 for her nan, for doing the food.  After a few ideas flown back and forth these are what i came up with. 

As they were thank you cards, i thought i would go for a more thank you image rather than christening image. Before i say anything else PLEASE forgive me for the bad quality photos! (only another 6 days till my birthday Graham! (that's my hubby lol))

All of the writing says  "ANGEL, BAYLEE AND ADEN WOULD LIKE TO SAY"

This first card is using Teddy Bea.  She is coloured with promarkers and pencils and then cut out.  The papers are from First Edition (i think, although i am not sure which range!) The card blank is from Craftwork Cards.  The gems were in my stash with the ribbon.  The flowers are a mixture of Wild orchid crafts, Crafty Emmas Store and Mulberry Crafts.
