Wedding Card...

Still trying to top up my Wedding card box before my craft fair....without putting cards in a box its very difficult to put embellishments on a card that aren't too bulky....have tried to keep this one simple and it fits nicely into an A5 envelope without too much bulk.

Using Marianne dies for the main centre images, the silver leaves are from Crafts Too...the backing sentiments I've had for a long time so cant tell you where they came from...Spellbinders borders along the bottom...

Its tidy up the craft room day today...so no card making..

The weathers still lovely down here in Somerset but not sure for how long.

Snow family...

The weeks seems to be flying by now and I am trying to get the odd Christmas card made....

Love this image from LOTV its called the 'Snow Family'.... coloured with Copic pens and mounted onto a Nestie.

Backing papers are from LOTV 'Krafty Christmas' pad...Marianne Christmas tree, Memory Box Picket fence...corner and large Snowflake die are all from Cuttlebug.

The weather down here in Somerset is lovely so warm....and hopefully its going to last over the weekend...

Have a great weekend whatever you do...

I am off to the craft Show at Westpoint, Exeter tomorrow which will be nice, I always enjoy the shows there...I wonder what I will bring home???

Toot..toot....

Just love these Art pad images from LOTV and this little image is called 'Toot Toot'...ideal when you need lots of cards quickly as they are pre coloured  for you and as I have a craft fair coming up in  November I need lots of quick cards.
I've used papers from one of the LOTV 8 x 8 pads called 'Candles and Cake', put the plain paper through one of my cog embossing folders to give a bit of texture...the 'steering wheel' die is from a cog die set my friend had.... Memory Box banner and the ticket sentiment is from Pink Gem designs...

Double take....

Another busy week so no real time to blog....this is a card I made for my friend Margaret, it was her birthday earlier this week...
I've used the lovely Double Take digi image from Saturated Canary...coloured her with pencils and copics..just added a little glitter to her dress and placed her on the same nesties frame I did my gilding flakes on.
Backing papers are from LOTV Promises 8 x 8 pad.....Cheery Lynn corner die, a little bit of lace and a few pearls. Sentiment is from Craftwork cards...

Cant believe its the weekend again...some commission cards to make but hopefully might get time to make a card over the weekend to post on Monday.

Hope you all have a great weekend..

Gilding Flakes....

Last Thursday I spent a lovely day with my crafting friend Val...its always nice to exchange ideas and also to share stamped images and dies.
Val had shown me a Spellbinders frame that she had gilded using Woodware double sided sticky backed paper instead  of Flitter glue....I came home and created this card.

The lovely scenic image is one I stamped at Val's its a Heartfelt Creations one which I coloured with watercolour pencils. I used a the Garden Lattice embossing folder for the background, Spellbinders tag and the corners are from Whimsy... 

right off to do the ironing now!

Christmas Fairy....

Haven't had much time to blog this week so sorry if I've missed any of your posts.
Can't seem to get in the Christmas card making mode at the moment but as my craft fair is at the start of November I need to make a start.  My cards are going to be very quick and easy this year...
This is one of the small LOTV images that used to come on their A4 sheets, not really big enough go onto a 6 x 6 card on its own buts looks quite good in the centre of the Mexican Tile die....
The image is pre-printed so just added a little bit of glitter and a couple of Cuttlebug snowflakes....the embossed background is Spellbinders Dainty Dots.

Have a good weekend...
