Just popping by..............

Hi everyone,

Just popping by to make sure you don't forget me!

As you may know i am in the middle of moving at the moment and from tomorrow our internet will be off until the end of the month!! How did we ever manage without it before?!? I will have limited access but not enough to blog, so until i have it switched on at the other house, i will have to survive on my phone :-(

Anyway onto my card.

I have had this image for AGGGGGGEEEESSS and love her to bits! Her name is Gretel and she is fromm CC Designs, my version is actually a digi stamp but CC.Designs have stopped selling digis, but she is still available in Rubber form here

I coloured her with promarkers and accented her balloons and bow with stickles glitter glue.

The papers and embellishments are all from a Kaisercraft paper pad (i think)

The butterflies are punched from a Martha Stewart punch

The sentiment is 'Forever Friends'

The ribbon is from the Gorjuss Girls range.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking

See you soon!

Black and White Owl

Hi everyone, 

This is my final entry into the cardmaker of the year competition

I thought i would do something completely different!  I never really use dies as a focal point but this die was part of a subscription gift i got and i love it!

The die is called Beautiful Owl and is part of Joanna Sheens Signature range.

I used Embossalicious big dots embossing folder to emboss the circle and Darice 'Wire Fence' for the panel.

The butterfly is from the Butterflies and Dragonfly set

And the silver heart in the centre of the bow was from eBay

I hope you like it.

Wild Rose Studios Kitty!

Hi everyone, 

I am here with the 2nd entry i sent for the Cardmaker of the year, now as i said, i know some of you will think i don't stand a chance but you have to be in it to win it, so you never know!

I haven't made a card like this for AGESSSSS.  

The image is a stamp from Wild Rose Studios and is coloured with promarkers.

The paper is Lili of The Valley, as is the sentiment.

The flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts and are smothered with Stickles.

I just noticed the gems in the top are wonky on the photo!!

Santa Snoozing

Hi everyone, 

I recently entered the Cardmaker of the Year Competition run by Quick Cards and Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazines, now while i probably don't stand a chance in hell, you have to be in it to win it! SO this is my first card i sent.

I used Santa Snoozing from the Special Delivery range by Heltz Cuppleditch, now if you are a regular followerer you will know i rarely use hand stamped images, i do prefer digital, simply for staorage, but this is one of my favourite stamps.

I coloured with Promarkers.  The cuffs and trim on Santas hat has 'fluffy stuff' which for the life of me i can't remember what it is called but it comes out like liquid and then you heat it with a heat gun and it goes all fluffy!  It is ideal for fur or snow!

The papers are from Santas Workshop paper pad.  I embossed the green glitter card with a snowflake embossing folder. 

The sentiment is from Fidgety Fingers

The ribbon and pearls are from my stash.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Wish me luck!
