Baubles...

Last week I was suffering with awful toothache and one night I didn't even go to bed so sat in my craft room making Christmas cards trying to take my mind off the pain...thankfully with antibiotics and pain killers I'm fine now... 

I've used Marianne Creatable large bauble die for both cards..

 

The image in this bauble was sent to me by my lovely blogging friend Anneke ...

Hope you are all keeping busy making your Christmas cards.

Take care and stay safe everyone

Christmas continues...

 

Being in lockdown again hasn't bothered me as I'm still making Christmas cards for the grandchildren...its been a bit like a factory in my craft room making batches of cards...... 

Didn't realized I haven't posted for so long...  also had an order for 6  more gnome cards.   Giraffe stamp is unbranded off the interest.

My grandson really loved the post box designed cards and I've managed to put the names of some of his friends on the letter being posted.... the post box die was from The Works....thank you Jules for pointing me in that direction...

I need to think about my own Christmas cards now so hopefully I can make a start on those this week...

Hope you are all keeping safe and busy during these very difficult times especially as Christmas is only a few weeks ahead...

More Christmas cards...

Still making Christmas card for the grandchildren to give to their friends...I've done a few same design but different colours...   I've used my new Stampin UP Snowflake embossing folder for the background on my little snowman...embossed it on vellum which gives you white snowflakes so no stamping....the little snowman has come from a set of Penny Black called 'Jolly Friends'. Sentiment is from Inkylicious.

Just love the  'Simon Says' gnome die, again I've done several of these cards in different designs and colour ways...also I've used up a lot of my paper and card snippets..

Hope you are all keeping busy and safe in these difficult times...thank goodness for crafting..  

Have a good day everyone..

Christmas cards.....

I've been making some Christmas cards for 3 of our grandchildred to give to their friends... I just love the Stampin Up Trimming the Town DSP...its just cutting out bascially...the little bauble cards 3 x 3 are made using the small houses on the back of one of the DSP sheets...

You can make so many cards using this paper once you've cut out everything it takes no time it putting them together.

One request was for a card with a black cat on it for my granddaughter to give to her brother and partner....added the little car as I've also got the stamp set.  20 cards done so far about another 10 - 15 to go....

Hope you're having a good weekend....take care and stay safe

Bird Ballard Birthday...

          This is a card I made for my friend Margaret just using the DSP from the               Bird Ballard set....such beautiful papers.

Its been a busy few days in the garden cutting down bushes and trimming trees ready for the winter.   

          Yesterday we made the most of probably our last hot sunny day with a trip            down to Weymouth, we saw around 6 cruise ships still docked in the bay             not sure  when they will be moving but don't think anytime soon.

       

Keep safe and well everyone....

I'm Back....

Sorry I've not been around for a week or so but we decided to take a chance and go away in our caravan (first time this year) ...we've had a glorious week of sunshine down in the New Forest. 

The only thing I have to post was another another Penned & Painted card using the Magenta DSP....

I will be back to crafting after all the washing and ironing is done...also I need to catch up on all your blogs to see what you've been up to..

Have a good weekend whatever you've got planned..and take care

Anne
