Christmas Cracker

Hello peeps

I think I might be getting into the festive spirit, it being only 50 sleeps until Christmas!

This is a cracker card, I really enjoy making these.


 I like it because it folds into a nice little square so it makes them easy to post.

Christmas paperbag Card Part 1

Hello!

I could not wait until I had completed this before I shared this card.  So here is part one of my paperbag card - the front cover.  I love the new Christmas Magnolia stamps, Ihave bought quite a few of them!




I also love using flowers, I bought the flowers and berries from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Part 2 to follow......

Criss Cross Christmas Card

Hello

Here is a Christmas criss cross card that I have made this fine Saturday.  I have used one of the Magnolia stamps that I bought from Glitterpot.  I have used some lovely ribbons from Crafty Ribbons and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  xx

Keepsake Box

Hello

Rather than throw away a box that came with my fave Marc Jacobs perfume in, I have decided to make it into a keepsake box. 


I have used one of my many Magnolia stamps and attempted a bit of masking so that I could use the swing magnolia stamp that I bought an age ago.  I have dusted off my copics to colour the image in and then I have covered the dress in sparkly glamour dust.


I have left a space to the left of my mag image to insert a name.  I think I might be giving this to my Godaughter, Georgia.


I have added many paper flowers and I have added even more glamour dust.  Byeee  H xx

I am entering this for the TLPC Challenge Glitz & Sparkle

Notebook

Hello Again

I received my Limited Edition Magnolia Stamp yesterday and I have used it on a notebook I had started to make.  Isn't she cute?


I need to add a bit more paper in the middle, and then I have to decide am I going to keep it for myself or give it to a good friend, who will treasure it! LOL!  Take Care H x

It's Christmas!!!

Okay, I am a few months too early lol! But I know in the world of card making it is never too early to start making Christmas cards.

I have used lovely Magnolia Tilda and have made this little card.  Hx

My second box card

Just like buses no posts for a while and then they all come at once!  Here is another box card that I have made for a present that I have bought for my friend Sharon.  Her birthday was on the 4th of July and I made a lovely paperbag card for her, but her present got lost somewhere in Royal Mail land.  Rather than wrap this up in a bit of paper, I thought I would use a box card instead.



I have used a lovely Teddy Bo digital image and some more of my Hobbycraft wedding stash.  H xx

My first box card!

Good morning All

This is my first post of the morning.  My first attempt at a box card. 





A few other firsts on this card include the use of paper doillies, a bit of a disaster - I managed to stick 3 on here by accident!!  The pearl strands are new too, I bought them from Hobbycraft I accidently walked down the wedding aisle and found lots of things that I can use on my cards.  Byee  H x

So many cards, so little time

Hello I am here again with another card.  This card was for my close friend Susan, who is also the foster mother for my dog Scout when I go away on holiday.  I have kept the card quite simple, and used a couple more of the Teddy Bea digital stamps that I have bought.  Hope you like.  Hx

Leaving Card

This is the first leaving card that I have made.  A work colleague is leaving this week, so I thought that I would make a card from the team.  It is quite a large card some 20cm square, but I needed the space inside to allow people to write their individual messages.  I have used a digital stamp from Teddy Bo, the first one that I have ever bought! 

Hope you like

Hx

Super James

Hello it's been a while, with one thing and another....  Here is a card that I have made for my gorgeous Nephew James.  It is his birthday next month, he will be the ripe old age of 7.  I have used the Super Edwin Magnolia stamp and changed the 'E' for a 'J'.  I have coloured the image using watercolour prismacolor pencils.


I have quite a few cards to make over the next few days, so I will be publishing a few more. Ta Ta  Hx

Paper Bag Album - Work in Progress

Hello All

I thought I would share this work in progress.  It is a paper bag album, I think it is going to take me forever to fill and cover.

I have used 8 paper bags and 2 pieces of cereal box covered in card (and eventually other things) are the covers.  As usual I have added lots of photos.  Will share more when it is complete. x

Pirate Tilda

Hello

I just love the Tilda's that I have used on this card.  No Copic's this time, I have used watercolour pens instead and a few sakura pens to add some sparkle.

30th Birthday Paper Bag Card

I have been inspired by my lovely friend Kerry to do my very first paper bag card.  It is my Sister-in-law's birthday in May and because it is a special birthday, I thought it should be celebrated with a special card - it also gives me the opportunity to use several of my Magnolia Tilda stamps.  I think I have caught the bug (you are soooo contagious Kerry!  lol!!)  and will be making several more paper bag cards!









There are so many photos, because there is so much to see.  Hx

Lurvly Hanglars

Hello peeps!

I have fallen in love with these lurvly Hanglar & Stanglar stamps from the Bee my Honey collection.  These cards are not quite finished as I cannot find the right sentiment to put on them - this calls for another shopping session LOL!  but I just couldn't wait to share them.  I think I need to add a bit of bling too!
