A cute card for Grandad

Good morning all, I hope you are well. I just wanted to share a quick card before I head off to work. This is a card that I made for my sons to give their Grandad. My eldest son Josh and I went halves on the stamp when we went to the NEC.....but I had to pay for it all lol. I don't really mind as I love the stamp. The stamp is from LOTV and here is the card that I made...



I coloured the image in with my Spectrum Noir pens to colour in.



I hope you like and thank you for stopping by today.

New Mum for a baby girl...

Good morning, I hope you are enjoying your bank holiday weekend so far. I work Saturday's so mine starts today :0) yippee! ... I am back today with another SWALK card to share and just like the new baby card that I made for both a boy and girl, I did the same for the new mum stamp.



I stamped my image onto Neenah card and coloured the image with my Spectrum Noir pens. I must admit I have really enjoyed colouring with the SWALK stamps, I need to practice a bit more with the hair.....but hey any excuse to colour in! Lol I used some gorgeous backing paper from the SWALK Papercrafting cd volume 2 which I printed onto Satin finish paper, I love the results from this paper. Here is another pic..



Don't forget there is still time to enter the competition and have a chance to win the whole set of stamps from the New release.



How fantastic is that? Just head over to here, you must be logged into the website first. Good luck!

Thank you for visiting me today and for all your lovely comments you leave :0)

SWALK New baby but this time it's a girl....

Hello everyone it's Friday yay! I have another SWALK sneak peek to share today it is using a stamp I have showed already but this time I have made it suitable for a girl. Before I show the pics though I apologise for the poor quality I usually use my boyfriends phone but he wasn't about and mine is rubbish so the next best thing was the iPad. I really want to upgrade my iPhone but the boyfriend is trying to get me to wait for the next one.....I don't like waiting lol. Anyway here is the card...



I stamped the image onto Neenah card and coloured it in using my Spectrum Noir pens. I cut the image out using a spellbinder die and used distress ink round the edges. I finished the card off with afew embellishments one of which is a button which I stuck on the bow, I made the button using matching paper and my Epiphany tool. Time for a dodgy close up...


Thank you for taking the time to visit me today and I hope you have a lovely weekend.

New Mum sneak peek

Hello everyone hope you are all well and not getting too bored with all this rain. I am back today with another card using one of the new SWALK stamps fromCrafters Companion.



I stamped the image onto Neenah card and coloured the image using my spectrum noir pens. I used the SWALK 2 cd for some backing paper and my whitewash coredinations card and all. Of which are available from here. Here is a lose up.



Before I go I thought I would share another card using one of the Professionals Reddy die cut decoupage. For this card I used this sweet little nurse.



Isn't she sweet? The paper is from my paintbox Poppets cd rom and I used some of the new Pink Paislee coredinations card. Here is another pic.

S.W.AL.K sneak peek

Good evening everyone I hope you are well tonight I have a sneak peek to share using one of the 12 new S.W.A.L.K stamps from Crafters Companion. I have some of the Christmas Cheer stamps but to be honest they haven't seen any ink yet (hangs head in shame) but having played with some of the new ones I can't wait to get them out to play! Onto the card...



How cute is this little beauty !?! On the stamp plate you have a sentiment for a boy or a girl which is great. I have used papers from the S.W.A.L.K 2 cd rom. The image is stamped onto Neenah and coloured in with my speccies all of which is available here. Here is a close up of the image.



Crafters Companion are actually running a competition giving away all of the new stamps.

Before I go I just want to share another Reddy die cut decoupage card using the roses kit, they really are divine.

Reddy die cut decoupage sneak peek

Good evening, I hope you are all well. Today has just run away from me but has been quite productive which I am happy about. I have developed quite a list of things to make and do, one of the things I have been asked is to decorate a wedding post box....not really sure where to start but I'm sure I will think of something.

Onto the card I have to share, on Thursday 3rd May Louisa from Crafters Companion will be on Create and Craft with some new Reddy die cut decoupage. One of the kits is called Professional and is very cute! Here's the card...



How cute? I used some papers from my Paintbox Poppets cd rom along with one of the stamped sentiments from the same range. I used some coredinations card to try and replicate a circus tent and then added a bit do faux stitching. Here's a close up of the image....




Before I go I would like to say thank you for all your lovely comments on yesterday's post :0) Thank you for visiting me today, I will be back tomorrow with more sneak peeks.
