Yeeee - Haa I'm on a roll now guys!!!

3 posts in one night I bet ya can't believe it!!  Lol No?   well neither can I lol
So card number 3 - here it is!!
 A gardening theme card was wanted for a friends dad but wanted something that wasnt fany but just simple so this is what i came up with!  Card topper from a mens collection done by Kanban the green card was from my bit box as i thought it went well with the topper.   The large round brad type bits i have made by just punching from a 3/4" circle punch then embossing  the back of it to give it the domed look.  Just thought its something different!
Happy crafting guys and you may now relax from your shocked state from all these posts as this is the last one for tonight x   Thanks for looking and please leave me a comment so i know you have passed by!
Hev x

Oh yes its another!!!! lol x

Well here i am again yes 2 posts in one night ...... you are seeing correctly!!
Ok so you know how you go through stages when you like doing things so you just have to keep doing it or youlearn something new so you do it for the next 3 weeks non stop?!!     Well mine seems to be stamping my own backing papers at the min so here is the other backing paper i have stamped.  I got a cream piece of card and have used the baby blossom stamp set from Stampin Up to create the flowers.  Each flower and leaf is a seperate stamp so you can create a small bunch of flowers and leaves or a large bunch...you just gotta play!! I have gone around the edges with soft suede coloured ink also from Stampin Up (its one of my most used ink i just luuurrvvveeee it!!)    I made the scrunched up flowers too - get me hey!!! lol  I just love flowers and the vintage look if you have not guessed that by seeing my other posts.
Right once again night all and happy crafting x

Well its been ages since i posted on here so no fainting folks pls !!! :0)

Well i decided i wanted to use my Sense of time stamp set so here we are!!!   I used the samll cog stamp and the main clock face to make my own backing paper.  I then used another clock face embossed it on the back and stuck itonto the card.  I have done the same thing with the small dial (stamped and cut out another then embossed it).   So thats one of them i have done i think i will have more to follow.....Ooooh my craft buddies will be in shock!!
Night all and happy crafting x

Magic....... x

I was asked to do a card for a friends son who was into magic tricks and cards! She gave me these cards to use as she wanted it to have 24 on the front for his age.
I used the stampin up broadstreet alphabet to get the word MAGIC ....i just love this alpha style!!
Thanks for popping by folks!   Hugzzzzz  x

Just for you...............

Well just wanted to use up some of those scrap bits of card!!   I keep putting them in a box under my desk and i never get round to using them up so it was a bit of a mission today.    I decided to use up this pinky backing paper.   I used crumb cake card from stampin up along with stampin up ink called soft suede to get a vntage look around the edges.    The sentiment is also a stampi up set called oval all.    Wel i hope you like it!!   Please leave me a comment if you pop by just so i know you have been x

Different sort of card!!

 I decided after getting my new Stampin Up die's from the new mini cat that has just come out that i wanted to use material instead of card or paper!!
I cut out the centre shape called top note from stampin up and i then stamped around the edges using vintage vogue stamp set also from Stampin Up.  I also  used this set to stamp around the edges of the brown card with SU whisper white ink.    The flower i have used is cut out with my other new die from Stampin Up i have used different coloured fabric and different textures too.   This is finished of with a bit of inking around the edges an eye let in the centre of the flower with a small bit of twine popping out of it.   The flourishes are from a quickutz 4z4 die.   The floral edge is done with a good old Martha Stewart!!
Thanks for looking folks xx

Ooooh its been ages!!!

Well its been ages since i have posted on here i must keep up!!!   :0)
Wll my first post today is a card that i made for our monthly Cricut club challenge.  This had to be  either four or five flowers cut using the cricut so this is what i came up with!!!     I used the walk in my garden cart and used the same flower but just made it smaller eac time.   I used my Martha Stewart cart to give me the boarder down the side. Other bits i used were twine, buttons and a bit a lace down the side near the boarder.
The backing paper for the card started out as plain crean but i distressed it using Tim Holtz inks and by using a stampin up stamp set to give a floral faint look.   (Oh just one last thing i also used a stimpling bush on the background which was kindly lent to me by Dee ---- Thank U!!  x

Thanks for looking folks xx
