Little Westie

 

When visiting Bath and West craft fair last week I didn't buy much but I did buy this lovely little Westie die cut in both the small and large (Britannia dies) ...this is the small die which is cut out of black glitter card...its perfect to fit on a 5 x 5 card...I've so many small card to use up and this is perfect...

Its an awful day down here in Somerset very wet and blowing a gale...so a perfect day for crafting..

  Have a good weekend whatever you are doing

Stamping on Embossing Folder technique....

Last Club night I also re-visited a technique I did quite a while ago stamping onto the S.U Woodland embossing folder to make it look like the trees are in the foreground and the trees are behind.
 I started off brayering Soft Sky on the depressed side of the embossing folder then I stamped 3 trees...then very gently brayered light grey on the trees before adding the little deers die cuts afterwards.

 

For this card I brayered my background then stamped both the tree and the car before adding the little bird and the cat (both die cuts)...its such an easy technique but very effective....you can find lots of videos on Utube show how to do this.

Hope you are all enjoyed the weekend it has been lovely and sunny down here in Somerset.

Tea light projects...

 

Had a little play with some tea light battery candles....this poinsettia

was made with die cut poinsettia petals and leaves..and a little ribbon around the bottom...very quick to make.

Project 2 was this little birthday cake using small punches flowers
just decorated this little box I already had but the cake would look lovely in a white box with an acetate front or top.... 
 

Just loved making this little snowman, you just need to punch holes in the back for the tiny on/off switch and so easy to do with an easel card but of course you do need a little box to pop him in if you were posting.
 

 

There are so many ideas around on Pinterest using these little battery tea lights.

Thanks for stopping by

Its been a while....Coffee and Card morning

 

 It's been quite a while since I last posted but just haven't had time to craft, a few holidays along the way and also looking after my daughter who now is almost back to work after her major operation....

Yesterday was the monthly Coffee and Card making morning run by the lovely Jill Lackford .

Jill had several card designs for us to choose from but I liked this lovely deer card and the liked the idea the card folded flat to post which certainly helps keep the costs down.   Image is from SU Natures Beauty stamp set

Its our club night on Wednesdayevening so I will have something else to post   later on in the week

I'm sorry I haven't kept up with your blog posts but hopefully now things are back to normal.
