Hello and welcome to my new follower! This is a card i was working on over the weekend, and is for a friend at work. I used assorted bazil, lace, flowers, Magnolia drops, liquid pearls, spellbinders circles and labels seventeen. There is a delicate swirly thing on the side which was cut on my cuttlebug with a memory box die called Fauntleroy crest ,( my favourite die at the moment) ans the leaves were punched out with my Stampin Up bird punch.The champagne glasses are a stamp that comes from the stampin Up Cheers to you stamp set. While I had it out I stamped out quite a few images with it – it has a variety of different shaped glasses, and today I spent a lovely while in the craft room making a few cards with them.I will go back into the craft room for a little while after tea as I still have a few Wedding cards to make. Til tomorrow….

A little bit of everything…
I have thrown a little bit of everything at this card, so my list is quite long – here goes – Bazzil cardstock for the base, Prima Sparkling spring as the paper collection used, a chipboard dress form covered in matching paper,press studs and old pattern instructions from my late grans box ( that sewing box is coming in quite handy!) my sewing machine, assorted lace, buttons and flowers, a label die and ribbon, and all the edges were inked with worn lipstisk distressed ink. phew…great excitement in the craft room tonight as I received my big box of goodies from Kay (stampin Up) today. What to play with first?My mind is spinning with ideas -it could be quite a long session in there tonight, but first I have to cook tea for the hungry hordes, so Til tomorrow…..

revisiting sweet nothings part 2
Hello and welcome to my new subscriber! Tonight I have a simple card made using a bit of 12 x 12 paper from Kaisercraft sweet nothings collection and the matching collectables. All I added was a ribbon bow and a few flowers, ( and a little kindyglitz). The sentiment in the middle is stamped with Stampin Up Perfectly Penned… I do like this stamp and am getting so much use out of it.The paper is a favourite too, and I have still so much of it left so I will be using it for some of my Mothers day cards. I will be in the craft room tonight .I have quite a few orders to put together so they will keep me busy for the next few days. Til tomorrow….
Sweet Nothings revisited
Today I have gone back to a kaisercraft Paper collection called sweet nothings. I have already posted a few cards made with this paper and I have a couple more in my file. here I used the 6″ paper pad and decorated with Prima flower and leaves, and a little ribbon. I installed my new most amazing shelving unit last night and it is full.. Now I can’t fit another one in my little room, so I am going to have to work very hard to use up the papers I have before I buy more. I think I hear my sister Kay snickering in disbelief…Til tomorrow..
A different stamping techinique…
Todays card uses the lovely soft pastel papers from Melissa francis, and a couple of Martha stewart punches, flowers and lace. but the reason I put it up today was to show a stamping technique I used on it. I love the poem on this card, but it looked a bit plain when it was put together, so I stamped a tree ( from lovely as a tree – Stampin up) in versamark, and brushed some perfect pearls over the top. It gives a holographic effect – at some angles you can see the tree, and at other angles you can read the poem. This will possibly be mums Mothers day card, just because I love the the poem and I’m sure she will too. I am awaiting arrival of my second most amazing shelving unit so will be busy tonight filling it with papers! Til tomorrow….
Group of Lil Primrose
I found some more Kaisercraft Lil Primrose cards in my photo files, so thought I would put them up today. I have used the 6″ paper pad and matching Kaisercraft Lil Primrose collectables, and assorted ribbon and flowers . A very, very quiet day at the market today, and very warm and muggy in the big shed, a relief to get home and have a cool shower !A little tired after the early start to the day, so I will probably not visit the craft room later… we will see… Til tomorrow…
Bo Bunny 5… The last…
I think this is number 5 … I have lost count… Bo Bunny Enchanted paper teamed with assorted flowers, beaded ribbon and magnolia tear drops. Thats the end of my monochrome series, hope you enjoyed it.. tomorrow we will have some colour! Tonight I will be found in the craft room playing with some new paper that I have had for a little while but haven’t had a chance to cut into yet! til tomorrow….
Bo Bunny Enchanted 2
Yesterday was an engagement card, and today is a Wedding card! Here I have used Stampin up basic black cardstock with a few of Bo Bunnys’ Noteworthy Journal die cuts ( Enchanted) layered on top of one another, and edges inked. I have also added flowers and beaded ribbon. Mum, Kay and I had a lovely day visiting a crafty friend who lives in the Adelaide hills, so we had a nice drive, and stopped to by some fresh produce from a roadside stall on the way. Very relaxing, and just what the doctor ordered after a busy week at work.Tonight I intend to continue crafting with the supplies I pulled out today to take to Sandy’s as I have to confess we did a fair amount of chatting and not too much crafting! Great fun…. Til tomorrow…..
Bobunny Enchanted
Here is something completely different for me – Monochrome cards… This particular card was created for a relative that recently became engaged, and I used Bo Bunny Enchanted 6″pad, a matching brad and a pre printed label from a matching 12 x 12 paper. I added some flowers, pretty beaded ribbon and a prima leaf. I die cut a sizzix tattered floral from more of the papers from the 6″ pad. The greeting was stamped with Stampin Up perfectly penned. I would love a bit of feedback on these monochrome cards so let me know what you think! Til tomorrow…..
