A Task

Good Morning All

A lady who regularly asks me to make personalised cards for her gave me a challenge afew weeks ago.

Three cards for her three Grandsons - One likes Lego, one likes QPR and the other is a mechanic!!!!!

 For the Lego, all I could think of was to print some paper to use as a background.

I used paper for  mats all the colours from Lego.

QPR,  I printed onto printable acetate and added silver circles to act as footballs all mounted onto embossed card.

The only car paper I had was of vintage cars, and I embossed silver card iwth a 'tools' embossing folder, and I added a key as it was his 18th.

She was pleased with them all anyway.

I think she likes the fact that they are personalised with their names etc.

Foxglove

Good Morning All

I found this card in my file (trying to get it all sorted so there will be some oldies on here ).

The digi is from Delicious Doodles, mounted onto S/B Labels 6 and this was mounted onto a Marriane die cut.

I distressed the CoreDinations card after embossing it in a Swiss Dots folder.

I added a couple of charms onto the ribbon.

I printed the sentiment and stuck onto a smaller one of the Labels dies.

Have a good week.

Birthday Wishes for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge  this week is hosted by Kevin

I wanted to make something abit different.

I have made this shape of card in the past but a good while ago.

A diamond Easel card.

The Balloon decoupage has been in my box for ages but I thought it would make an ideal Birthday card.

As it was only quite small I had to sort of spread things out abit, if you know what I mean.

Only Words at MAWTT

Good Morning All

Moving Along With The Times Challenge this week is hosted by Christine.  She only wants words, no images.

I need two new members to join Team A if anyone is interested.

I made this card for my crafty Friend, Lyn, her birthday was way back in November, same day as Noahs actually.

I was really pleased how this one turned out.

I cut 3 of Sue Wilsons 'Hollywood' dies.  Lots of parchment flowers, stamped the centre sentiment and the round one is from Scrappers Delight.

There are some gorgeous creations form the rest of the DT so pop over and take a peek.

Friends Birthday

Good Morning All

As I mentioned on Friday, my friends both named Val and  have Birthdays on 14th Feb.

So here is one card I made for Val Craft ( that is my name for her, to distinguish between the two).

I had to make an envelobox for it as it, obviously, wouldn't fold flat.

I thought these bright colours woud cheer her up.

Whenever I use coloured paper for an insert, any off cuts go into my quilling box, then, when I am in the  mood, I sit and make  a load of quilled flowers.

The shaped card is some leftovers from a Hunkydory set.

I still love making this style of  card.

Circles no Squares for Allsorts

Good Morning all

Allsorts Challenge is hosted by Kath.

Kath joined us last year and this is her first host and she wants circles.

As I dont have any big, big dies I used a bought card base, a rectangle, not a square, and used lots of circle dies, S/B scalloped Circles and S/B Butterfly Circles. 

 Circle sentiment and doilies too.

When I made this I had been practising my quilling and this is some of it, mounted onto a scalloped black circle to make it stand out

Two types of ribbon as we are sponsored by Crafty Ribbons

.

And we also have a pair of tickets to the NEC Spring Hobbycraft show 17th - 20th March to give away.
