i am loving the bright colours of this paper _ kaisercraft Tea Party. Here I used the 6″ pad for the bottom layer on stampin up cardstock for the card base. The cupcake is from the collectables pack, and I added another strip of paper down the side with some lace. I added some kindyglitz to the cupcake for some bling. I am busy today making some card for an order, a few more to do, then plan out my december lessons! til tomorrow…..

Prima Delight number 1
I recently bought some new papers which included a new range by prima – Delight. This is my kind of paper – great for vintage cards. So far i have only made this one card using it – been a bit busy with xmas cards, but hope to get back to it very soon! I created a few layers for this card, and distressed and inkied all the edges. I made a flower with my sizzix tattered florals die and put it together with a stampin up antique brad.The little pearl swirls are also from Prima. today has gone by so quickly, and I haven’t created too much but am heading off to the craft room now for an hour or so.. bliss…. til tomorrow….
lots of animals….
While I was on my quick break a few weeks ago, we stopped in a small town for afternoon tea, and found a scrapbooking store to visit – as you do.. and I bought a couple of sheets of paper made by a company I hadn’t come across – Hobby Fun Co.,Ltd. One sheet was full of animal images, and the other sheet had borders, and bits for fussy cutting. I made 10 cards with these two pieces of paper, and here are 4 of them. For the bottom two cards I used some Stampin Up paper for the background layers,and I fussy cut Balloons and paper hats out of the same stampin up paper.For the top two, I punched a picket fence with a martha stewart border punch,and used kaisercraft papers for the backgrounds.No crafting tonight because i must get all my paperwork in order for the the tax man next week…. Til tomorrow….
Stampin Up Afternoon Picnic number 4
Still with Stampin Up Afternoon Picnic designer series paper, and another colour way.This time I did a 6″ by 6″ card, and made an envelope using my memory keepers envelope maker. Used the smallest size, and popped a tea bag inside it.I fussy cut some of the images from the paper, and die cut the word relax using a Die- Versions die – editor-in chief die. I turned back the paper to leave a pocket for the envelope, and added aribbon bow. Today I have put aside the christmas stash and have been working on some mens cards, and a couple of birthday cards for family members, al in all a nice crafty day! til tomorrow…
