Something (a little different) for the weekend

At Christmas I made a recipe book for my sisters then fiancee, they were married a few weeks ago, it was a lovely happy day.

So here is the cover

 
Sorry about the glare from the flash
 
Here is one of the inner pocket pages, I tucked a Yorkshire pudding recipe in this one
 
 
A few more pocket pages
 
 

 
 
 and here is one of the inner pages that I printed out
 
 
and it also shows the tabs at the top.
 
The papers are from a Sarahs Cards kit, and I glazed the covers with modge podge before binding it with the bind it all.
 
If you've made it this far, thank you for visiting and for so patiently wading through all the photos.

Back again

Thought I'd best do a midweek post or you might think I had disappeared again, so here's the card I made for my brother last year and spent months running out of patience with blogger. He's had another birthday since then and I'll show that card once it's made it's way off the memory card and onto the computer.

 
 
So the image is a digi stamp GolfJames from Digi Stamp Boutique, I think that the papers are Echo Park and the coloured card is from the scrap box and has been embossed. 
 
Thank you for taking the time to visit and for your very kind comments

Not much ribbon about Kath

Sorry Kath but it looks like there hasn't been much ribbon use at all recently, I will have to dust off the ribbon jars and remedy that. Meanwhile here is a card from earlier in the year which I made for my niece and it has ribbon and ric rac and my favourite Magenta stamp as well as more lovely Lili of the Valley papers

 
The image is coloured with Copics and the sentiment is a Woodware stamp.
 
Thank you again for taking the time to visit and leave me such lovely comments

Sunny Saturday

It's a lovely sunny day out there today, might step out and enjoy it a bit later but thought I would share a card first.
It's a card I made for one of my friends earlier this year and uses one of my favourite colours and a lovely Lili of the Valley stamp coloured with copics


The papers are also LOTV, sentiment is Craftwork Cards, and a mix of Spellbinders and Cheery Lynn dies for the lacey bits of card. The little flowers are from Hobby House.

Thank you for visiting and I always appreciate any comments you might take the time to leave

Good to be back!!!!

 
Well it's been a while but I've finally found a way to get my photos on here.
So here's a new home card which I made last year for my nephew and his wife.
The image is a Lili of the Valley mini masterpiece which they have now discontinued but still have the stamp. I think that the papers are Crate and the flowers and brads are from the craft room shelf. The leaves are a Martha Stewart punch and the sentiment is Craftwork Cards.
 
Thank you for visiting
