Relax its your Birthday..

 

Finally I think my chest infection is on its way out after over 3 weeks with steroids and antibiotics......

Needed a quick masculine birthday card so I have used an old LOTV image...in fact two images which I have sliced up just to give it some texture. 

 What a stormy night it was thankfully we didn't loose any tiles this time or garden fences...

 I need to get back into my crafting now

 Since my Norton Anti virus updated last time I am unable to get onto some of your blogs as it say's 'Dangerous website'...I know one of my friends has the same problem...they are blogs which I have been visiting for a long time so not sure what the problem is...any ideas would be welcomed..

Thanks for stopping by

Free as a Bird....

Firstly a belated Happy New Year to you all....

 I managed to pick up a nasty chest infection over Christmas and I am still struggling to get rid of it hence no crafting but found a stamped image in my box and have managed to put together a card...the image is from SU Free as a bird..

Hoping I will have my mojo back at some point...

Baby Giraffe...

 

I did very well at my craft fair last week and had quite a few card orders which was nice....just finished them all.   One request was for this giraffe baby card so this lovely Marianne die for perfect..  

We are so lucky not to have snow here but today we have got lots of floods so the best place to be is in the craft room.

Thanks for stopping by

Christmas choir...

While sorting out my bits for my craft fair tomorrow I found a few images that hadn't been made up into cards this being one of them..  quick bit of colouring, some layering up and hey presto a small 4x4 Christmas card...

Can't remember who stamp this was but I know I don't have it anymore..

Another 'fractured' card....

Another fractured Christmas card, this time I've used a little image I find in my box...I will put a name on it later.

I'm busy getting ready for my craft fair which is a week on Saturday, I only do one a year and its in our village Playgroup...  I have also managed to just finish all my own 'special' Christmas  cards and luckily I can hand deliver them all by hand apart from two...with the postage quite high now I think like a lot of people we've cut down...

Its a horrible wet and dark morning down here in Somerset but nice and cosy in my craft room..

Have a good day whatever you are doing

Fractured card technique

Yesterday  it was our Coffee  and card morning and we made a card using the factured card technique..we stamped the background then added  the red square then going clockwise around the red square added the strips of green card...instead of putting a sentiment on the white centre piece I decided to add a poinsettia that I had already had made up in  my 'bit box'....so popped that in the centre then added the sentiment on the card.... I don't make 6 x 4 cards so I've  layered it up on a 5 x 7 card...A great technique for using up patterned  papers and it doesn't have to be Christmas DSP....hope you will give it a go its so easy.. 

 

Thanks for stopping by its very  much appreciated...
