prima Delight number 3

IMG_5944 (Medium)Sorry I missed last night post, but I am not well – terribly sore throat – voice is not good, and I came home from work yesterday and fell asleep for a good long while! Still no better today, and I am hoping I am better for my class tomorrow otherwise I will be relying on sign language to give instructions! Todays card is the other card I had time to make using Prima Delight paper, ( love the image), and lace, flowers and a charm. I fussy cut the whole frame and mounted the girl image behind it. I think this evening I will pull out this paper and look at it again, see if I can do any more fussy cutting while I am watchingb tv. Til tomorrow….

Prima Delight card

IMG_5943 (Medium)A bit of a break from christmas cards.. Because i have been so busy with them I haven’t had a chance to have a good run with a lot of the papers i have been buying, this one included, and I can’t wait to find some time to really play with this one – Its, Prima Delight, and I have used the matching tags and flowers on this card too. I punched out some leaves, added a lovely coffeee satin ribbon, some lace, distressed and inked all my edges and done! Til tomorrow….

IMG_9383 (Medium)Here it is, the last in my graphic 45 12 days of christmas series. I think I have combined everything on this one – layering, fussy cutting, lace and chipboard pieces.I have loved using this paper, still have some left, but today I have been working on more christmas cards using up my kaisercraft paper. I must concentrate on using up some older papers, as I have run out of room to buy more so there may be some posts where we revisit some old favourites! Til tomorrow….

Graphic 45 12 days of christmas number 3

IMG_6084 (Medium)The paper I used her ( graphic 45 12 days of christmas) was from the 8″ pad, so its the same image as last nights card but smaller, which allowed for a bit more decoration. I matted the image onto some green bazzil cardstock, and layered some fussy cut papers in the corner. The card base is made from Stampin Up cardstock. I have a class tomorrow – so looking forward to seeing my ladies, so must go and pack my bag! Til tomorrow….

IMG_6081 (Medium)Here is the first card I made with my Graphic 45 12 days of christmas papers.Lots of images to fussy cut on this collection of papers, once I had done that I found the cards needed very little extra embellishments, and this card needed nothing more!Til tomorrow….

kaisercraft lady rose number 6

IMG_6076 (Medium)We still have a lot of this range to see, but after this one we will take a couple of days break,just in case you are all bored with this paper! Although , for myself I haven’t been so inspired for a long time, once I started I couldn’t stop . I love it when that happens…For this card i used a bit of the 6″ pad for the background, and a piece of 12 x 12 paper fussy cut for the tag that I stamped the sentiment on to. I fussy cut more paper with the flowers, and attached some collectables to finish.Til tomorrow…
