Today has been a busy day in the craft room making fairy and butterfly cards, but I’m ready to move on, and continue on with my Birthday book. I want to get it finished so that I can use my new Zutter bind – it -all! Til tomorrow…..
Echo Park springtime take 3
This is the next group of cards made using my 4 sheets of Echo Park springtime collection. I also used stampin up cardstock, Kaisercraft bling and a stamp it stamp (just for you), and the candles were stamped with a stamp from a stampin Up set and cut out. The thing I loved about these papers was they didn’t need a lot of products and although the papers had a lot of different colours and patterns they still went together perfectly. Today I was over at Paper flourish setting up my May lesson, and really splurged on a lot of new paper collections. I got the new kaisercratf ranges, new Prima (2 differnt collections) and the new Bo bunny collection . All gorgeous – so much new paper, so little time! You all know what I will be doing tonight! Til tomorrow….

Tonights card was a really quick one put together with a couple of bits of scrap paper that I had left over from other projects. I just added a lace bow and a sticker, and of course a bit of kindyglitz and it was done. I am so glad tomorrow is a public holiday. I am looking forward to creating in my craft room for the first time since I have moved in there. I am going to experiment with different folded cards to come up with something for my next lesson.Til tomorrow…..
Stampin Up Love Letters No. 2
Tonights card uses beige bazzill cardstock for the base, and then features Stampin Up Love letters designer papers. I used the Stampin Up top note die, some lace and bling, and the flowers were made by cutting circles into spirals and rolling them up. I threaded some more paper through two slits I made in the top note die cut for added interest. Til tomorrow…..
Organic Grace/ Every Moment
I’m a bit late with my post tonight because we have all been outside harvesting our cherry crop. It’s the first year we have saved them from the birds. We covered the whole tree in netting ( not easy as its so tall) and tonight it was decided the cherries were ready, so off with the nets, out with the ladder, and so it began! Everyone wanted to be the team leader, but eventually a pecking ( picking ) order was formed and now we have a fridge full of cherries. Lovely. Some of the potatoes were also dug up, so in all a very productive evening out in the garden.Tonights card was an experiment in shading my background with distress inks, and I used stampin Up stamps – Organic Grace and Every moment. The paper was kaisercraft secret bird society I also used a stampin Up vintage brad, and cardstock. No cardmaking tonight, a bit of T.V. and early bed. Til tomorrow…..
Cuttlebug card
Tonight I thought I would show you a card I taught my ladies at a recent retirement village class. I wanted to show how you could make a card Just using your cuttlebug, and all the ladies were most impressed with the finished card! I used a sheet of metallic card, cuttlebug and embossing folders, and a butterfly die and a little piece of silver ribbon and pearls to finish. I have been organising my boxes for the market this weekend today, and just have a few cards to make tonight, and I will be organised! Til tomorrow….
Thinking of You
Tonights card uses Bazzill cardstock as the base, and Kaisercraft Secret Bird Society 6″ paper pad,and Kaisercraft wood flourishes – Birds. I inked the bird with Tim Holtz distress inks, and used a Stampin Up greeting stamp. The little butterfly was fussy cut out of the patterned paper.I really like this paper, and haven’t done nearly enough with it – maybe after xmas! I will sit and make a couple of cards tonight but I have bought a couple of new books ( A new Jeffrey Deaver – yay!!) so will be reading tonight! Â Til tomorrow….
