Make it Crafty Geeky Love

This is a card i made for my friend that had a baby. 

She had 2 children before the baby came so i wanted to make something a bit different and around the time she was due the Geeky Baby collection was released over at Make It Crafty! I thought this was ideal and wanted to make a sort of story book.

  So the front represents their wedding

The left is the inside of the wedding one and represents her pregnancy, the next is the birth of a beautiful baby girl

The last is the reality of parenthood!  She has asked me to give her a slap if she has any ideas to get pregnant again!! LOL although i have told her she needs to keep having them to keep my broodiness at bay!

This was the card as a whole

The papers are from Craftwork Cards, the images from Make it Crafty and are coloured with promarkers.

LaLa Land Cowboy Luka

As you may know it is Father's Day in a couple of weeks so i have had a few orders for Father's Day Cards and this was the first.  

I was asked to use Luka from La La Land.  I have had him for ages but not got round to using him! He is coloured with Promarkers.

The papers are Dovecraft and MME (i think)

A New Home Box Card

My good friend Kate recently moved home, so naturally i made her a card!  I wanted to do something a little different for her and have recently discovered box cards! So i made her this.  It is actually from the Silhouette Store.  I added the sentiment which i got from Birds Cards.  The butterflies are of course cut on the Portrait.  the papers are Kitsch from Craftwork Cards

I hope she liked it!

Long time no post!

Well it's been quite a while since my last post, but i have been busy, busy, busy! 

I have quite a few makes to share, so here goes:

First of all is some large papier mache letters i painted.  My friend had a baby recently and i wanted to make something a bit different for her.  She has 2 girls and a boy so i thought these were a nice idea for their rooms or something.  I got the letters from eBay and painted with normal wall paint. Harry's letters are chipboard letters and the girls ones are cut on the Silhouette Portrait as is the dinosaur and the princess crowns.

I hope they all liked them

Is Spring here??

This is another image from the free decoupage set from Papercraft Essentials.

Again i mounted on Kraft card and kept it simple.

The sentiment was a spare of the moment choice and thinking about it now i would put a mother's day or easter sentiment on it.

Another quick card.

This cutie is from the current Papercraft Essentials Magazine.  This was in a decoupage and papers kit that came free with it.

LOTV Bunny

I love these printed squares you can get nowadays, they are ideal for quick cards or when, like me, you have lost your colouring mojo!

I cut around the balloon and die cut the bunny with a spellbinders circle.

The papers are from the Candles paper pad by Lili of the Valley too.

The sentiment is from Boofle.

Jessica

This is a very quick Clean and Simple card.

I used Jessica from Angelica and Friends from Crafter's Companion as were the papers that came out a couple of weeks ago!

I think its a great simple but effective card.

Best Birthday EVER!!

The other day my children had one of their programmes on and there was a little girl in it that shouted 'Best Birthday EVER!! ' in the cutest little voice so imagine what i thought when i saw this sentiment in my new paper pad!

I had already coloured up this little cutie from Sassy Cheryl so i thought she was perfect.

This cutie is called Gaby's Pigtails and she is coloured with promarkers.

The papers which again are mounted on black card are My Minds Eye Hootenanny

The ribbon is from my stash!

Mother's Day cards x 2

You may remember a couple of weeks ago i made 2 Popcorn the bear cards that were identical but slightly different?

Well these 2 cards are for the same lady.

She wanted a card for her mother in law and a card for her mum.

They are for mother's day but when i showed her this morning she asked me to leave them as they are.

 The image was a freebie from a magazine and is coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.

The papers are Dovecraft and Forever Friends.

The ribbons and pearls are from my stash

The butterflies which have Stickles on them are punched from Tonic Studios punch.

The mum balloons are from Fidgety Fingers.

Fizzy Moon

A couple of weeks ago my mother in law asked me to make her a card for her sister that was going to be 60.

I have a real thing for mounting on to black at the minute, i think it really sets the colours in the paper off.

The stamp is Fizzy Moon and is coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.  The flowers have been stickled for the glittery effect.

The papers are Dovecraft and Me to You

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the pearls and gems were from my stash.
