With Love

Another fab, fun card using a Kanban topper....they really do get me out of a hole when I'm busy and need an urgent card which is a good job because I still have a couple of hundred sheets left! :)

I used: Friendship Lollipops & Mats 901567,  Love & Marriage paper pad 901539, silver mirri card, red organza/satin ribbon. 

This next card was made using an Aspire Crafts 12 x 12" paper pad and sentiments

So I used the 12 x 12" Thoughts of Spring paper pad, a sentiment topper and sentiment tag and a red Dekromount heart.

Thanks for visiting my blog x

Brrrrrr

It's still blooming snowing here but I suppose we should be grateful that at least we only have inches to measure rather than feet!! (gosh that gives my age away lol) It was freezing in the shop today, in fact I was so cold I came home at 2pm! Not something I would normally think of doing but I couldn't warm up and I had made myself a bowl of porridge :). The heating had been switched off since I left on Saturday afternoon so the place had got really cold. I left it on when I came home today so it should be all warm and toasty when I get there in the morning. I saw two people all day....a lady who came to bring me some hats and gloves for the Kids Co and the courier who came for their parcel.

Not much to show now but I have updated the Wrap Up A Kiddie donations page as promised.

Both cards were made with free papers and images from Making Cards magazine and a free 6 x 6" paper pad which I got months ago. i just added some mirri card and some glitter glue to finish them off, oh and a couple of sentiments from Craftwork Cards.

Back tomorrow with some new jewellery. I need to get a wiggle on tomorrow as I have a jewellery party at the shop on Wednesday evening.

Just out of interest...does anyone use the Stick-It tape by Docrafts? I used some to make a card yesterday and it seemed to be fine and I left the card laid down on my desk. When I came in later on the topper and mats had started to lift. I stuck them back down but the same thing has happened again only this time more has lifted. I just thought I would ask on here before I went and made my complaint!! I had a problem earlier this year with some clear 3d squares only they kept sliding off the card...not a happy bunny!!!

Night :)

Page Plans

weeks 28 and 29!

I've used green and red Bazzill card on this one and I ran the green card through the Big Shot with the Christmas Ornaments folder. The snowman is again from a pack I bought at the craft fayre on Sunday, the snowflakes are punched using an XCut punch and the sentiment was generated on the lap top.

This card is for the week 29 sketch. It also fits the Papertake Weekly challenge which is

Simply Sparkling! (Papertake)
This weeks challenge was inspired by all the bonfire and fireworks displays there have been lately! lol Simply sparkling - glitter, gems, or anything that is simply sparkling or along a bonfire/fireworks theme!

The image is again from one of Debbi's Christmas cds. I've printed it onto vellum and added glitter to her hat and muffler and mounted it behind a green spotty frame which I cut by hand, this was then mounted onto a piece of embossed silver mirri card. I finished the card with Card Candy from Craftwork Cards, glitter snow flakes and a couple of diamantes for added bling :) Again the sentiment was printed.
