Poppy Parade/Daffodil delight

 

I made this card on a very hot day, and I think the weather influenced my colour choices, but I think it turned out ok! It is for a friend at work. I used Poppy Parade and Daffodil delight Stampin up cardstock, a Butterfly die cut, assorted flowers, Magnolia Jewels on a silver wire, and kaisercraft pearls.Short post today as its shopping night tonight. Til tomorrow…..

Cheers to You

Todays card uses Stampin up Cheer to You stamp set, and Taken with teal cardstock. The patterned paper is Basic grey Junebug, and I also used Kaisercraft pearls, and coloured the stamped images with twinkling h2o’s.I have used this samp set a lot – its so versatile! Tonight I’m working on a card that features a cake shop window – I’m using acetate for the window panes. If it works I’ll post it when my photographer has time to take the photo! Til tomorrow…..

Teen Girl card

Todays card is so quick to make! When I first started cardmaking, I bought these outline stickers, and then wasn’t sure what to do with them, so they sat in a drawer for a couple of years, til I moved into my craft room and found them, so thought I would finally do something with them. I used Kaisercraft patterned paper, and bazill cardstock, and stuck the outline sticker onto some shiny paper. I then hand cut it out and mounted it onto the card along with some metallic ribbon. Til tomorrow…..

Hollywood vogue

The paper I used on todays card is from Websters Pages ( a favourite) Hollywood vogue. I also used a prima flower,lace and kaisercraft pearls.I have been busy today setting up my March lesson at paper flourish, and while I was there I picked up a lovely big new stamp of a lighthouse scene, so now I am busy colouring! Til tomorrow…..

Flights of Fancy

 

The title of todays post is taken from the name of the Prima range of papers that I used – Flights of fancy.I also used stampin Up cardstock – Marina Mist, Asst flowers, Kaisercraft pearls,and Magnolia teardrop fewels. I fussy cut the butterfly out of the prima paper.Today I have been revisiting some old papers to try and clear a bit of space in my drawers, so that I can justify buying new stock ! I will continue on with this for the rest of todayand should have some good photos to take tomorrow. Til tomorrow…..

Cuttlebug card No.2

I titled this one cuttlebug card because thats the only tool I used to make this card. Quick and easy. The colours came into my head and wouldn’t go away until I had done something with them! I used Yellow bazill cardstock and Poppy Parade Stampin up cardstock. The emboss folder is swiss dots, and the Butterfly is a new die from marianne designs. In the corner I put assorted flowers,Magnolia jewels on a silver stem, and Kaisercraft pearls. Today I have spent clearing my orders, so all up to date! Til tomorrow…..

Magic happens No. 5

This is the last card in this series that I have made. I will revisit this paper, but not for a while. I received my latest Stampin Up order from Kay today, and I have 5 new stamp sets to play with! Great excitement! Anyway back to todays card – the cardstock is Stampin Up night of navy, and the paper is Kaisercraft Magic happens, which I fussy cut for the Fairy and butterfly. Great paper and so easy to work with . A busy day over at the village today,all the ladies were organised, and they even had dedicated insert cutters, inserters, and baggers ( lovingly nicknamed bag ladies!) We had a great time with them all as usual, and although I left before the final count ( where do they get their energy from), I believe it was in the region of 150 cards for the troops. Well done ladies! Til tomorrow…..

Stamped Birthday

Todays card is the first card I’ve stamped for a while, and I found I’d missed this technique, so now that I’m on holidays I’m hoping to do a bit more of it. The cardstock and papers are Stampin Up, and the stamp is a little single stamp put out by Kaisercraft. Very cute. I stamped it onto metallic card with stazon, and coloured it with my stampin up ink pads and an aqua brush. Today was my lesson over at paper flourish, and the ladies and I had a lovely time. Now i’m going into my craft room for  a long session of cardmaking to try and catch up on some things that I’ve been too busy to do, and of course dig out some bits and pieces to take to our marathon cardmaking day tomorrow. I’ll be able to tell you how many Mothers day cards we are sending off tomorrow. Til then….

Magic Happens No. 4

Quick post today as I have to go to the hospital to visit a sick Uncle. This card was part of a group I made when I first bought Kaisercrafts Magic happens papers. The fairy is fussy cut from one of the papers,and the castle came in the chipboard pack.I used stampin up cardstock. til tomorrow….

Card in a Card!

Three views of the same card today, because I wanted you to see how this one was constructed. Its quite easy, just a fair bit of layering. I used Bazil cardstock for the pink, and Stampin Up cardstock for the green, and the paper is Kaisercraft English Rose.The only other thing needed was a length of ribbon to tie it all together.I quite like this style, and I  have done a few with different papers now. Market day today, a lot of stalls, quite a few people, and the time flew, but tired now, so I’ll cook tea and very early bed tonight! Til tomorrow….
