Timeless vintage 2

As promised we are back to the Kaisercraft Timeless vintage 6″ pad. On this card I have fussy cut some of the butterlies and added a bit of lace – of course! I also sponged Antique linen Ink (Tim Holtz – ranger) around the card and paper to soften the edges.A quick post tonight as it’s shopping night – Til tomorrow…..

Another Bonjour….

I have had a great creative day… first setting up my January lesson over at paper flourish, and then continuing at home this afternoon as I was on a creative roll.. don’t you love it when ideas come together! I am back on my mission of finishing with some of my paper collections so I am trying not to jump from one to another… so difficult…. Todays card is created from kaisercraft Bonjour collection, including the fussy cut butterflies. The flower is a sizzix die – flower layers no. 9, and the Thanks is also a sizzix die. I just added a Stampin up vintage brad, a strip of bling and some lace. Back to the craft room.. Til tomorrow…

Deck the Halls 4

This is number 4 in my Melissa Francis deck the halls series. Only one more to go after this one! I just added ribbon and lace. These cards just make themselves – Don’t you love it when you sit down with a paper collection, and before you know it you have made a dozen cards? It doesn’t happen often to me but when it does ( Like last night) it’s the greatest feeling! I will show last night efforts when Nathan has time to photograph my cards.His camera is still being fixed  so we have to rely on my little camera.Til tomorrow…..

Corsetry and lace

After weeks of sickness, I can finally say I am feeling back to my old self! So I will be found in the craft room if anyone needs me! Todays card uses a bit of product, including – Elements collection chipboard, Authentique ‘Uncommon’ patterned paper and elements sheet, sizzix die, Stampin up vintage brad, Flamingo perfect pearls and ribbon and lace. Phew that was a list….Oh the cardstock is stampin up cameo coral (Retired – a shame) and sahara sand.Til tomorrow….

Prima Romantique + Acetate

Well, I must say I am feeling a little better today, and actually sat in the craft room for a short while this morning, and created a couple of cards, but I have developed the worst symptom so far this week – No Voice! Anyone that knows me knows this is a disaster of mega proportions -not able to speak… just horrible! The dogs just sit and stare at me and my son jumps every time I go near him – he says I am sneaking up on him, but obviously usually I start the conversation before I get to him which gives him warning I am coming, which is not happening today. Todays cards were a bit of an experiment – I wanted to see if this gorgeous acetate would go through the cuttlebug, which it did, beautifully. The acetate is teresa Collins Posh lace, and the papers are Prima Romantique. I also used  assorted ribbons,stick pins, flowers and lace.
