This card uses a couple of pieces of the 12 x 12 paper from the Kaisercraft porcelain rose collection,and a couple of pieces from the packet of collectables that match. I stamped the sentiment ( stampin Up) on one of the collectables, and put the banner piece behind it to break up the black and white. The leaves in the corner are punched with martha Stewart leaf punch, and I punched a circle, cut it into a spiral and rolled a flower.Today has been a day of straightening up the craft room, still some work to do in there – I have bought some new storage bits and pieces, so it’s a good time to have a thorough clean out and donate some supplies to the ladies at the reirement village – my mojo seems to have left me for today – hope it’s back tomorrow! Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Porcelain Rose number 2
Todays card is really simple, just the 6″ pad and collectables in the Kaisercraft Porcelain Rose collection, with a stampin up sentiment and flower. It’s the matting and inking around the edges that gives it a bit a of interest, and I just love the bird!I had a wonderful 3 days at the craft fair. Saw lots of my ladies – thank you all for stopping by to say hello, sold a lot ( have to get back into the craft room to replenish my boxes once I have tidied it up) and stocked up on lovely things like lace and buttons. Today I have been working on an order, I still have a week of holidays left, so tomorrow will be spent sorting out the craft room – everything has just been dropped in there at the moment! til tomorrow….
For the Record…
This is a card that I made for a sketch challenge – I used For the Record 2 paper, cut some banners, punched a flower, and added a couple of little flowers. I handcut a banner and stamped it with a hero arts birthday stamp.I think this one will be in an upcoming Quick cards magazine.I have been over to the craft fair site today and set up my stall – looking forward to the weekend! Til tomorrow….
Lucky Last Bo Bunny Surprise number 13
Here is the lucky last Bo Bunny Surprise card. Lots of Stampin Up cardstock on this one, and stampin Up embossing folder too. I fussy cut the images and star strip from the bo bunny collection, and added them all to the card. Just needed a bit of kindyglitz on the bow to finish. Today I have been putting together some card kits to sell on my Fair stall – we will see how they go – if there is enough interest this is something I might get into as I have enjoyed myself doing them. Tomorrow morning will be photo time, hopefully we have some natural sunlight available for that – its been lovely and wet here the last couple of days – we never complain about rain! Til tomorrow….
Bo Bunny Surprise 11 and 12
Only a couple more in this series – Bo Bunny Surprise so we will stick with them – still using the original 5 sheets of paper that I purchased, we are up to card numbers 11 and 12! I used a punch for the stars on the card on the left, and fussy cut the the stars on the right out of the paper. The cardstock used for the card bases and the mats is from Stampin Up. Til tomorrow…..
Cuttlebug card with punches
This is another village lesson card – the ladies gave me the embossing folder which they had purchased and asked for some ideas on how to use it.I embossed a piece of cream cardstock and then inked the raised areas with a green ink pad and sponge. The flowers were punched using a cosmos martha stewart punch and I added some bling and a ribbon bow, and mounted everything onto stampin up daffodil Delight cardstock.The butterfly was punched with a stampin up punch.I have been busy in the card room making some more class lessons,and preparing for my class later in the week, but when I go back in there later I will be creating with some new papers – can’t wait!
Kaisercraft flora Delight number 5
Here is the last in my Kaisercraft Flora delight series, and I used paper from the 6″ pad and the matching collectables on this one. I also used a bit of kaisercraft flower ribbon trim – snipped to represent flowers and added a bit of bling to the centers. I also added some bling strips and a ribbon bow. Did get here tonight, not so sure about tomorrow night though, we’ll see… til tomorrow, maybe….
Flora Delight number 2
Today we are back to my Kaisercraft Flora delight series, – love the orange and green for a change of pace…. here I have fussy cut some of the paper to stick on top of some of the green paisley patterned piece, and added a kaisercraft flower and some punched leaves and a butterfly with bling and ribbon to finish. The sentiment stamp is from Stampin Up – Wonderful Mother – a perfect set for mothers day cards. I have been concentrating a lot lately on my patterned papers, as I am trying to reduce my collection a little, but this weekend I have been making some cuttlebug cards, and some others that rely on Colour and shape( as we speak on my desk is a yummy collection of black, pink and green which I can’t wait to get back to) but my photographer Nathan is very busy this weekend sorting through hundreds of photos that he took at our boys wrestling companys’ huge show last night, so it may be a little time before I can get him to photo my new cards! it’s back to the room for me – til tomorrow…..

For this second card using Kaisercraft Lavender haze paper and collectables and Stampin Up Labels dies I have made a gatefold card, and decorated the inside of the card as well.

Well the weekend is here and I am looking forward to a bit of a rest, and some playing in the craft room! Til tomorrow….
