I promised myself I wasn’t going to get hooked on the prima doll stamps by Julie Nutting, but.. oh well whats a girl to do? Although I do colour, I much prefer to use these stamps with gorgeous patterned papers, so the only thing I coloured was the hair. the rest has been stamped onto patterned paper and paper pieced together. the paper I used on this one was Kaisercraft Velvet Crush, and for the skin tones i used an old sheet of websters Pages that I had filed away.most paper collections that are released have one sheet that would be suitable for skin tones, so this plan should work for me all the time!the butterflies are from the sticker sheet that was released with velvet crush,and I added a ribbon bow to finish. I taught a very busy class this morning and was grateful to a very dear friend for her help with a lady new to cardmaking, without her help I would have had a class that severely ran over time!I bought a big bag of goodies after class, and can’t wait to sit down tonight after tea and have a good look at what I picked up. Til tomorrow….

here is a familiar card layout for all of you that follow my blog – it is a favourite of mine. I have used prima Anna Marie paper,chipboard and brad, and rounded all my corners with a corner rounder. The flower is die cut with stampin up sizzix blossom party die, and the flourish is a magnolia dohickey.A simple layered card tonight! I have been in the craft room for a short while this afternoon, stamping out some mens cards,but I really don’t seem to be achieving very much!Oh well – it’s relaxing and that is the main thing! til tomorrow….

Sorry I missed last night post, but I am not well – terribly sore throat – voice is not good, and I came home from work yesterday and fell asleep for a good long while! Still no better today, and I am hoping I am better for my class tomorrow otherwise I will be relying on sign language to give instructions! Todays card is the other card I had time to make using Prima Delight paper, ( love the image), and lace, flowers and a charm. I fussy cut the whole frame and mounted the girl image behind it. I think this evening I will pull out this paper and look at it again, see if I can do any more fussy cutting while I am watchingb tv. Til tomorrow….
