Add a Sentiment for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge is hosted by Lorraine and her theme is

Add a Sentiment

I used the sentiment as the main focal point on this card. Nearly all my Christmas cards are made from items in my stash that have been there for years.  I was determined to use all die cuts and paper / card pieces.

I think the die cut is a Creative Expressions.




Two dies, two prizes, one Tattered Lace and one Tonic

 Good Morning All

3 more Christmas cards today and I am still making them.

All mine are written out so now I am making for the charity box, some in the box at the craft shop and some in the hairdressers where I have a box too.

These 3 are very different but still using old stash.




Thanks for visiting

AG with Vintage option for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge time again and the theme is Anything Goes but  Mervi has also added a Vintage theme too if you would like to use it.

I found these vintage pieces in my stash, goodness knows where they came from, so I used them all on this card and they fitted the Vintage theme too.

The lace is from Crafty Ribbons (link in sidebar)


We have 
sponsoring 
and this prize too
Indigo Blu Rose Blush stamp

I made this extra card using Ruth's Hollyhocks digi.  I have used this before and coloured it pink, very easy and enjoyable to colour.

Christmas Showcase for Crafty Ribbons

 Good Afternoon All

Crafty Ribbons are having a Showcase week for Christmas.

I made a noticeboard which I shall hang on the wall in my craftroom when I have had a move around at the end of November.

I used some wonderful Bias binding with a fancy edge to sew the borders.

And for the middle criss cross part I used the Christmas Skinny  collection




Very happy with this and I am quite pleased with my stitching LOL.

Afew more Christmas cards

 Good Morning All

As you can see, I am still clearing out my Christmas box and using some really old stash.

These toppers were from Card Making Magazine from before I moved to Spain, over 11 years ago.

The Snowflakes are JND and the rest is all older stash.

I am getting great satisfaction using my old stuff.




It does mean I can buy new next Christmas though!!!
Also  Crafty Ribbons  having a giveaway on their Facebook  page.

Autumn for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge this time is hosted by  Brenda and her theme is

Anything Autumn

so I decided to make a little notebook for my  charity box.

I made the cover and decorated it with some pieces left over from another DT project


Inside the front cover I made a pocket.


And this is the back cover showing the twine from sewing the pages in.


The prize is a lovely stamp from Lavinia Stamps

And this from Tim Holtz
