This is the final card in my echo park Victoria gardens series. I have enjoyed working with this collection, and I still have plenty of paper left, so I will still be using it, but after posting 9 cards of the same collection, I’m pretty sure you are all ready to move on! I also used a prima flower, platinum liquid pearls, a Martha stewart punch and my Cricut with the Heritage cartridge to cut the cameo. Tonight I am still working on a couple of xmas designs for next months village class, and then a night in front of the T.V. I think.. til tomorrow…..

websters pages lets celebrate
Todays card is simply made with Websters pages Lets celebrate, and a bit of fussy cutting. I added a little sunflower liquid pearls, and a yellow flower, but thats all! Today I have been stamping and colouring christmas images, from my new stamp set from stampin up, and this week end I will get Nathan to photo them so that I can post. Til tomorrow…..
Working with Acetate
One of my purchases a couple of weeks ago was a sheet of this acetate called Posh lace by Teresa Collins. I couldn’t wait to use it when I got home, and out of a blur of paper ( Prima Romantique collection) bling flowers,ribbon and Maya stick pins emerged 7 finished cards, 2 of which are here! I went back to the shop to purchase more thinking I would design a class around it but they had all sold out! A shame – gorgeous acetate. Til tomorrow….
Victoria gardens 8
This is the eighth card I have made using echo park Victoria gardens paper, and only one more in the queue. what I like about this paper is that all the cards look different, and are all for different celebrations. Tonight I have teamed the papers with my Cricut heritage cartridge to cut the cameo, and added some lace and a flower. Tonight I will be found in the card room making a couple of orders! Til tomorrow…..
Spring Birthday
Spring is here, and we have been enjoying glorious weather, so today I thought I would post a spring Birthday card. The patterned paper is websters pages farmers Market, and I have used stampin Up cardstock – Not quite Navy, and daffodil Delight trim. I also used some liquid pearls and a bit of ribbon. I’m off now to dig that paper out again and make some more spring inspired cards! Til tomorrow….
Victoria Gardens 6
This is the 6th card in my Echo park victoria gardens series. I also useed a free stamp that was on the front of a magazine, and silver embossed it, some ribbon, a flower and liquid pearls. tomorrow we will take a little break from Victoria gardens and see some more male orientated cards. I have finally made some headway in the xmas card making, so I’m glad about that! Til tomorrow….
Group of three cards
Today I taught a lesson over at Paper Flourish, and as ever had a good time, and some laughs with my group of mature ladies. Last Friday I taught a lesson at the retirement village and the three cards here are the cards we made. We used kraft cardstock, and Kaisercraft Blae and Ivy 6″ paper pad, along with nestabilities Labels eight dies,assorted flowers,ribbon, sentiment stamps, liquid pearls -platinum, and a stampin up bird punch. Well I only got three of my xmas cards made last night as I got distracted (who knew that would happen?) and ended up making quite a few non xmas related cards. I can see its going to be a long journey for the xmas card making! Til tomorrow…..
Victoria gardens 2
Here is the second card in my Echo park victoria gardens series. I made the green flower using some websters pages netting and a My Minds eye brad. I also used a martha stewart butterfly punch, and a Stampin Up greeting stamp. Tomorrow night we will return to Male cards which may be used for Fathers day! Til tomorrow….
More male cards
A couple more fishy cards today using Kaisercraft Hunter gatherer collection. These papers are all in the 6″ pad, the fish are fussy cut from a 12 x 12 sheet. I have put this range back on my craft table, and I’m going to create some cards that are not fish related with it. There’s lots of scope for nature inspired cards with this collection. I have also been getting my market boxes ready, as I will be back this month on the 21st of August.Fathers day will be just after that, so I’m stocking up on them, so this is why you are all seeing so many mens cards this week!Til tomorrow….
Miss Nellie
I thpought I would show another card I made on the weekend with kaisercrafts new range – Miss nellie. I have used the 6″ paper pad, and some ribbon, liquid pearls and a martha stewart punch. I like this paper, because the colours are so different to the last few flowery papers they have released – nice and bright! Til tomorrow….
