graphic 45 A ladies diary revisited!! numbers 15 and 16

IMG_5151 (Medium)IMG_5163 (Medium)A couple of weeks ago I came across some graphic 45 papers in the craft room, predominately A ladies Diary,but I have mixed it with le romantique, and Baby to Bride.The top card is an easel card ( stampin up cardstock) and all A ladies diary, paper, a chipboard piece, and lace and ribbon. the bottom card has a bit of Le Romantique as the background mat,a stampin up vintage brad, some fussy cutting and lace. I think this is still my favourite paper collection!Life here has been so busy, but the roast lunch is in the oven, and I am off to the craft room to make up an order and create for the rest of the afternoon, just to de-stress!Til tomorrow…..

Three more Wedding cards

IMG_6532 (Medium)IMG_6537 (Medium)IMG_6536 (Medium)Here are the final three of my wedding card series – the top two cards are made with kaisercraft on this Day paper collection, and the bottom card is a mix of papers I found in my drawer, and prima flowers and some punched leaves. I think the flowers on the top two are also Prima, and of course ribbon and lace used liberally on all cards! Today I have been putting together some Prima doll stamp cards, and mulling over ideas for my July classes. can’t believe I am already thinking about july – where is this year going? Til tomorrow…..

The final 4 simple stories I am!!

IMG_3100 (Medium) IMG_3101 (Medium)Here are the final 4 cards I have made with Simple Stories I Am. A bit of layering on these ones, and some of the extra embellishments I used were a metal key,ribbon bow,sequins,Die cut vellum butterfly and a flower. As you can tell I loved working with this paper collection and think I made 32 cards altogether with this purchase! Today was a day off for me but very busy shopping and time spent getting my little car fixed, but I have a little while before I have to organize tea so will head to the craft room to start a couple of customer orders.til tomorrow….

the very special last Bo Bunny Garden journal card….

IMG_3111 (Medium)IMG_3113 (Medium)This is the last two Bo Bunny garden Journal cards I have made – No doubt there will be more at some time, but todays cards are the last for now. The blue one uses a kaisercraft dres form die ( I love it) and the bottom one is an experiment in shabby chic style, so lots of ripping of paper ( so hard for me to do) and distressing and inking, mixed with lace, tulle, ribbon and bling. I made a matching box to fit it into.Today is a great day..i finally have a day where I can spend a great amount of time in the craft room, and just as well as it’s only 4 weeks until my 3 day craft fair, so it’s all about making enough cards to sell!Til tomorrow….

Bo Bunny Garden journal 6,7 and 8

IMG_3108 (Medium)IMG_3109 (Medium)IMG_3110 (Medium)I taught a lesson with this paper this morning ( bo bunny Garden Journal) and we all agreed it is a gorgeous paper collection. On all three cards I have really just relied on the paper, and fussy cutting. with the addition of lace, ribbon, some flowers, and the big prima flower on the bottom card these cards are great fun to create! Til tomorrow….

Bo Bunny Garden Journal number 5

IMG_3108 (Medium)there was going to be two cards today, but the computer has something against uploading my photos, I am blaming the weather,it’s been very stormy today, hopefully tomorrow it behaves itself! So, todays card is Bo Bunny garden journal papers, with some assorted flowers,punched leaves, and a bit of bling. I inked all the edges with tea dye distress ink. Til tomorrow….

Bo Bunny Garden Journal 3 and 4…

IMG_3105 (Medium)IMG_3106 (Medium)Two more cards made with Bo Bunny Garden Journal paper collection, and these ones have a distinct vintage style. Loved using lace,pleated ribbon ( stampin up) assorted flowers and some punched leaves and border trims on these ones. The dress form is a kaisercraft die,and I inked around all my edges with tea dye distress ink.Today will be a day of finishing off projects on my craft table I think, as long as I don’t get too disracted! til tomorrow…..
