Snailing Around

Hi Just had to dash this card on, a bit last minute I know, but it's my entry in the Pink Gem Designs Challenge and DT call. I would be over the moon if I was picked, but good luck to everybody that's entered. I'm sure who ever they choose will be really pleased.

My image is a digi image from Emerald Faeries and has been coloured with Tria Pens. The card is a sort of an easel design. Just a little bit different. I do hope you all like it.

Happy Anniversary

Hi everybody. My card today is for a Golden Wedding Anniversary. It is an order for a friend, Not my usual type of card, I love my stamping and colouring, but it's what the customer wants and they do look quite good. I have kept the background colours in cream and gold for obvious reasons, but then added a little colour to it with the decoupage. The book has been cut using large set of dies from Go Kreate. I have edged them with borders to make the edges look neater. The hearts are also die cut, the big one is a Spellbinder and the lattice ones are Cheery Lynn. The corners are Cheery Lynn too. The Decoupage is a Moorheads one from Crafter's Companion. Some flowers from Hobby House and a ribbon and bow finish the book design.

I have placed this on and easel card, I think this shows the book design off nicely.

Hello Thanks for coming and having a look at my latest creation. I have used an easel card design and the edge of the background has been distressed with Tim Holtz Dried Marigold and Black Soot.

This is an image from Just Inklined and I think she is really cute, and being as Halloween is just around the corner I thought I would use her for this card. I have coloured her with Tria Pens. Then the image has been layered on to a spiders web patterned paper from Basic Grey Eerie paper pad and orange card.

The tree and the letters are a Sizzix die. The orange moon is vellum embossed with a web and some pumpkin buttons in the corner.

The inside is covered in a patterned paper from Diane's Daughters . The bat stamp is from Chocolate Baroque. There are also two silver fancy leaf brads on the easel stop inside the card

Distressed Christmas

Hello again and welcome to this weeks

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge.

Unfortunately this will be the last challenge from The Secret Crafter, it will be sad to see it go but things are changing and it is time to bring it to an end.

The theme this week is

 Distressing

Our final sponsor is Heather's Hobbie Haven with a $15 voucher

For my card this week I have done Christmas, I thought it was about time to start. I have used a deckle edge card for the base and this has been covered with a patterned paper leaving a tiny border. I have then put a rectangle of a matching patterned paper layered on red deckle edge card on the top, this was cut with a spellbinder die. A merry Christmas greeting has been stamped on the top left. All these layers have been lightly distressed.

I have stamped the image and coloured it with Promarkers and glitter has been put on the coat and hat edges. This has also been layered on to red card. A piece of green ribbon is across this center of the card. To the left of the image I have put a single silk flower with punched leaves and just a few gems to add a bit of sparkle to it.

Hi it's time for this weeks

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge

And this weeks theme chosen by the lovely Kate is

Animal Antics

Our sponsor this week is Crafter's Companion

With a prize of a £10 voucher

For my card this week I have chosen a lovely bright summer colour, not that we have had much sun this year, I thought it would be cheerful. The image of Daisy the cow, that's my name for her cause all cows are called Daisy aren't they? has been simply coloured with part Tria's and part other pens ( including a little glitter). She has been cut out with a die, all the layers are a Yellow distress card. 

There are two white layers that have been embossed using different embossing folders, bubbles and daisy's, and a last layer of a nice yellow patterned paper covering a 6x6 card.

I have added a orange ribbon and bow to the bottom of the card. The 2 orange corner's are a Cheery Lynn Die and the Daisies are from Hot of the Press. A stamped sentiment completes this card.

Hello and welcome to this weeks challenge from

The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge.

The theme this weeks has been picked by me and is

White on white (except for the image)

Our sponsors this week are Heather's Hobby Haven with a prize of $15

Now on to my card this week. It's the been hard to do any recently hopefully I should be able to do more now. I have used an 8inch scalloped edge card as a card base. The next layer is 4 squares measuring 3.75 inches that have been embossed with 2 different Sizzix embossing folders and put on in opposite corners. Next layer is a doily which is off set to the top left. 

The image is a Lili of the Valley and has been water coloured with distress inks and then cut out with a Spellbinders Die. This has been layered onto another piece of white card embossed with Swiss Dots. There is a large white sheer satin ribbon on the top left. The flowers are a mix of white flowers from Hobby House and some punched flowers with a little glitter in the center. The leaves have also been punched out. The sentiment has been printed on Safmat which is on a palin wgite card circle which has been layered onto an embossed circle. I hope you like this card.
