Back to botanical


Here's another card with the botanical set from Craftwork Cards. I used the cover sheet for the paper pack for the white squares which I edged with charcoal chalk ink. I quite like the 9 squares design, I think it makes a quick card with plenty of interest.

Quick 40th



Here's a quick and slightly wonky post of a 40th card which I rustled up this evening.

Papers are blossom spots and stripes from Craftwork cards, green card came from the same place years ago, the numbers were cut out from their template and the base card is a cream back to basics size six.

The sentiment is from a Woodware set inked with printworks ink.

Thank you for looking

Something simple


Here's a simple card which I made for my friends daughters 16th birthday a couple of weeks ago. The image is from a decoupage sheet which I've had for a while and think I picked it up at the craft shop in Pontefract the name of which escapes me. Papers came out of my box and the rhinestones are by Kaisercraft.
Thank you as always for looking

Basic Grey Challenge 38


This is my entry for the Basic Grey challenge blog, it's a sketch challenge and I've used Kioshi papers.
The main image is a Hero Arts cling stamp Blooming Meadow which I have stamped in Stone Grey Stazon and then coloured with Cloudy blue and lettuce Adirondack inks. I've used the stamp again on the lemon paper with second stamping of lettuce ink.
The flowers are by Mei Flower and the ribbon is from my collection. Card and sentiment are Craftwork Cards.
Thank you for looking.

PBSC week 139


Was supposed to be scrapping today but snow stopped play so I thought I'd have a go at this weeks Penny Black Saturday challenge.
The theme this week is cards for men so I rummaged through the Penny Black drawer and picked out my 'going ape' stamp and coloured it with Promarkers to match the manly papers which I had picked out. Punched out a branch from a Stampin Up punch and added Sizzix buttons and a Craftwork Cards message. Base card is also craftwork cards.
Thank you for looking

Ribbon and ribbon charm are from my collection, pearls are from the Hobby House and the sentiment is by Woodware.
