While i had my new dies out, I made another card with them again using Kaisercraft The Lake House papers ( for those keeping track this would be number 11 in this series of paper!). So, the dies used are Cheery Lyn designs Tropical Flourish and Lattice number 2, and i added a flower made with my Tim Holtz sizzix tattered Florals. The brad in the centre is a kaisercraft brad, and for the pearl effect I used some perfect pearls. The sentiment is from Stampin up Petite Pairs.Well with a final push last night, I have now finished my fathers day cards, just in time for my Market stall next sunday! I am now looking forward to starting some Christmas cards, using some great new products I purchased last week although I am pacing myself because kaisercraft have some great papers coming out next month which I will be indulging in, and basing a few classes around. In the meantime Nathan and I will take some photos tomorrow and I will show you all what I have been playing with today!Til tomorrow….

The Lake house 3
Still using the 6″ pad from Kaisercraft The Lake House,I fussy cut around the flower sheet, and also cut a couple of extra flowers to pop on top with mounting squares. I added some ribbon, a stick pin, and flower, and used some liquid pearls and kindyglitz to decorate, and also slipped in a die cut from the matching collectables pack.The cardstock is Stampin Up Early Espresso.I am busy this week coming up with some lesson ideas,but also very busy at work, so a bit tired when I get home, already looking forward to the weekend when I intend to craft a lot!

Mens card ideas
I got a little distracted but we are back to my mens card series using Simple Stories Awesome paper. On both of the cards i used a Docrafts papermania stamp – happy Birthday, stamping it onto a few different pieces of paper and then cutting out the letters and reassembling it. I also used my spellbinders dies – Stars five and lacey Pennant for the banners and stars..Great paper for mens cards.Today nathan filmed me colouring my stamped images for a youtube video which will be up here tomorrow for those of you who have asked how I colour my stamped images.otherwise today I have been working on a secret project for my sisters upcoming BIG birthday. I have had this idea in my head for a while but found this week I couldn’t settle to anything so knew I had to sit down today and create it – it’s nearly finished I just have to find where I stored my hot glue gun…..
