Graphic 45 tropical tavelogue
Another hot day here in my part of the world, but I have found the perfect papers to cool me down – graphic 45 tropical travelogue collection. The colours are gorgeously vibrant , bright and cool! I have used Stampin Up cardstock with them – taken with teal, and summer sun. I also added some ribbon, a maya stick pin and assorted kaisercraft bling. I only have a couple more to show in this series, but will be making more with it soon – it’s such a gorgeously bright collection, and different from what I have been using lately… Til tomorrow…..
Sidewalk 3 with Cuttlebug
We are still with my October afternoon Sidewalk patterned papers, but on this card I have used my Picot Edges circles spellbinders die with my cuttlebug as the focus of this card. The greeting is a stamp by Stamp It, and I have added a ribbon and bow. A martha Stewart punch was used also. This is a good sketch card which I will probably use again! Nathan is on holidays from his studies and has been “improving ” my blog by building something on the side over to the right…. he assures me when he is finished, which might take him a few days , that we will be able to click on whatever we looking for in the list there, and all the cards I have done under that particular category – be it certain papers, or technique, or design , will come up as a group! Sounds good…..Til tomorrow….
Sidewalk 2
Yesterday was the boy version, and today is the girly version….. Using October Afternoon 8×8 paper pad and matching miscellany pack. After posting lasts nights card I went into the craft room and pulled this paper out again to play a bit more with it. The only other thing I added to this one was the ribbon.A late post today, I have to go and organise something for tea, and if I leave it much later it will be breakfast time!
Sweet nothings 4…
My blog address is still playing up, but some of you are finding me so we will carry on as normal. Now, in all honesty I have lost track of what number we are up to in my Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings collection series so I have randomly picked 4 as a good number for this card! All I have added to this piece of patterned paper is a collectable from the same collection, and a ribbon and bling. I hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas, and have found a little time for some serious card making…. Til tomorrow….
Lots of shoes and bags….
I know a lot of you are finding it hard to find me at the moment, there is a problem with my blog which Nathan is on to, but it could take up to 5 days to fix. A few of you have worked out how to get to me, thank you, and to everyone else you will have to catch up when the problem is fixed! Meanwhile we will carry on as normal…. Today I have posted a group of cards that I made just using 2Â 12 x 12 pieces of patterned paper, some stampin up cardstock – Perfect plum and basic black,and a bit of ribbon and lace. The paper was a find while I was on holiday from a company called Hobby Fun Co, and I embossed a lot of the plum cardstock with my Vintage wallpaper embossing folder from Stampin Up.I actually made 14 cards from this paper – that’s what I call a bargain buy! Til tomorrow…..
Sweet Nothings 4
I have been making cards with this paper all week and I still haven’t wanted to move on yet – I think its because there are so many different colours in the collection. It is kaisercraft Sweet Nothings and here I have used the 6″ pad and a couple of 12 x 12 sheets. The flower and leaves are from Prima and I added a little ribbon as well. Til tomorrow…..
Sweet Nothings 2
A post on the run tonight as it’s shopping night.. This is my second card using Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings 6″ paper pad. The flowers and leaves are Prima, and I used a Martha Stewart punch for the fern leaves. The greeting is a Stampin Up stamp.I of course also added a little ribbon! Til tomorrow…..
Madame Boutique 1
I think I have shown a couple of cards made with this paper before, but it was a little while ago, so we will start this series again at number one! It is kaisercraft Madame Boutique paper and matching collectables, and I just added a little lace and ribbon ( of course!) I haven’t been in the craft room all week, and I am looking forward to sitting in there tonight. I still have brand new papers – not even cut into yet – to play with, but it is a very busy time of year at work and so exhausting… Til tomorrow….
