Happy Mothering Sunday

Here's the card I made for my mother-in-law.

Base card is from Which-crafts, image is from Craft Creations sheet cut and cuddly bears, papers are Craftwork cards Ice Cream Parlour, flowers are Prima, sentiments are from a Woodware set and Candi is also Craftwork Cards.

Thank you for looking and for any very welcome comments

Another outing for the precious moments stamp

It was Paulines birthday on Tuesday and I inked up one of my favourite Sarah Kay stamps for her card. I've coloured it with promarkers to match the Crate papers and cardstock from Craftwork Cards. The base card is made from Bazzill.

The sentiments are Craftwork Cards and Hero Arts. Flowers are got flowers and the jewels are from Papermania.

I don't think I have used this colour combination before but I think it works.

Thank you as always for looking

Sketch and stash no 47

Another challenge card this time for Sketch and Stash. This one is for someone I have worked with for 12 and a half years and she is retiring on Friday. She likes to garden so I chose this well loved Sarah Kay stamp for the main image and couloured it with Promarkers. The sentiment is from my new Woodware set.

The Prima flowers and ribbon are from my collection, the flower centresare from Hobby House and the brads are by papermania.

I bought the paper at the GNPE in March this year and this was the first time I had cut into it.

Base card is by Craftwork cards and the pink card is some bazzill.

Thank you as always for looking

Fairies

This isn't the best picture but as one of the purposes of this blog is to record the cards I make then it will have to do.

The stamp is by Lili of the Valley, flowers are by Prima, papers and lace are by WRMK, brads came from Hobby House and ribbon is from my collection.

Thank you for looking

Lili of the Valley Challenge

The Lily of the Valley challenge this time around is a sketch challenge. This is the first time I have entered this challenge but had to make a card for someone at work and so thought I would combine the two and enjoyed the play.

The main image is by Lily of the Valley and is stamped onto the digital super smooth cardstock by craftwork cards and coloured with promarkers. Sentiment is from a 99p dovecraft set.

Papers are basic grey kioshi, flowers are prima and the pearl brads were bought form the hobby house when we were over in Tetney a couple of weeks ago. Ribbon is from my collection.

Thank you for looking

Same stamp

Here's a card using the same stamp as yesterday. I made this a little while ago and hadn't posted it so thought that I would share.

Papers are by Craftwork cards, I have overstamped them with one of their stamps in blue and also used this stamp around the image to pull it all together.

3 pieces of lace/ribbon and the flowers are Prima and some from my stash which have been coloured with promarkers.

Card for a mate

Here's a card I made last night for my friend to give to his colleague, or as he refers to her, his 'work wife'. I'd directed him to this blog and he liked the easel card from the Francoise class and this Sarah Kay stamp which I had used on another card so I have combined the two along with some My Minds Eye papers which were freebies in a mag and a few Prima flowers and sparklies.

I will now send him an e mail so that he can give it the once over.
