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….

graphic 45 12 days of christmas number 10
Here it is, the last in my graphic 45 12 days of christmas series. I think I have combined everything on this one – layering, fussy cutting, lace and chipboard pieces.I have loved using this paper, still have some left, but today I have been working on more christmas cards using up my kaisercraft paper. I must concentrate on using up some older papers, as I have run out of room to buy more so there may be some posts where we revisit some old favourites! Til tomorrow….

For this christmas card I used the 8 x8 pad from Graphic 45 – 12 days of christmas, and the matching chipboard pieces. Quite a bit of fussy cutting and some layering on this one!a bit of kindyglitz to finish, and no ribbon for a bit of a change…one more in this series, and then we will move on to something else.I have been busy with house work today, but I am off now to the craft room for a couple of hours – some lessons to set up for january, seems so far away but will be with us before we know it.Til tomorrow…
graphic 45 12 days of christmas 5, 6, 7 and 8

I decided to show these cards together as each pair uses the same images from the 12 x 12 sheet of graphic 45 12 days of christmas papers,but I did something different with each one.I have used some of the matching chipboard pieces from the same range, and added ribbon, bling,and bakers twine as well as a liberal amount of fussy cutting and layering.taught a class toady, and my family are all out tonight putting on a wrestling show so it’s off to the fish and chip shop now for me , then an uninterrupted night of crafting to follow… bliss….. til tomorrow…..
Graphic 45 12 days of christmas number 3
The paper I used her ( graphic 45 12 days of christmas) was from the 8″ pad, so its the same image as last nights card but smaller, which allowed for a bit more decoration. I matted the image onto some green bazzil cardstock, and layered some fussy cut papers in the corner. The card base is made from Stampin Up cardstock. I have a class tomorrow – so looking forward to seeing my ladies, so must go and pack my bag! Til tomorrow….

Lady Rose number 4
A totally different card today compared to yesterdays clean and simple design! This is a card I made for our card club.The background paper is from the Kaisercraft Lady Rose 6″ pad, and I fussy cut all the flowers around the edges from another sheet from the same pad. I lightly inked the doily and added some of the matching collectables. I drew the bodice ( the paper there is a scrap of websters pages) added some lace for the skirt, and them embellished with flowers,pearls and ribbon. I had great fun creating this one – didn’t think too much about it – just cut and stuck! I have a couple of orders to do this weekend,then lots of new kaisercraft papert to play with – can’t wait!til tomorrow…..
Heres a truly easy one! A piece of graphic 45 12 days of christmas 12 x 12 paper, some lace and a ribbon bow…almost feels like cheating! Til tomorrow….
