Henry - Mushroom Bear a Crafty Sentiment Design

Hello friends and visitors

So I'm sitting at my desk and it's pitch black at 4.30pm, I so hate these dark autumn nights, crafting is even more difficult! Anyway so before it got too late I made a card for several challenges and here it is...

I was lucky to win the Cutie Pie challenge recently and the prize was 3 Digi images from Crafty Sentiment Designs and this was one of the ones I chose. How cute is Henry sitting on a mushroom? I really enjoyed colouring him up and putting the card together. So to make this card I used the following:

Henry - Mushroom Bear which you can find here

Coloured with Promarker's onto Neenah Classic card

The papers are from a very old pad by Basic Grey called Olivia

The flowers are Hunkydory Fabulous Flowers.

Thank you for taking the time to visit and see you all soon.

Sunflower in a Pot - Conie Fong

Hello friends and visitors

It's been a sad week here in 'Sunny Southend' with the murder of Sir David Amess MP, he wasn't my MP, I live on the wrong side of the tracks! I used to see him shopping and he would stop and chat to me or just give me that big smile of his, he was such a lovely person, no one regardless of their politics, religion or beliefs should have to die the way he did. However, the tribute that has been given to Southend in his memory is that we are now a City, which he always campaigned for. RIP Sir David.

Anyway, I'm sharing a card today using a Conie Fong image which I really like. I like the clean lines it has and really enjoyed colouring this one in. So here it is...

To make this card I used a DL card base, Conie Fong image which you can find here and is in her sale, the sentiment is included with the image. I coloured the image using my Promarker's onto Neenah Classic card, the dies are from Ebay and some clear embellishments.

Have a great week and thank you for visiting any comments are always lovely to read,

Hello friends and visitors

I hope everyone is ready for the weekend, let's hope that the weather is a good one! I've a busy one, a birthday party for a 3 year old tomorrow, secret cinema tomorrow night and Sunday a family afternoon. So no crafting for me, even though my mojo is not back I still have a lot of crafting to fit in and luckily it involves using my Cricut Maker.

Anyway, here is a card I made a few weeks ago and it's another cutie from Lili of the Valley and here it is...

 To make this I used the following:

6x6 card base

Lili of the Valley Digi image - James with Heart Bouquet which can be found HERE

coloured with Promarker's onto Neenah Classic card

Papers are First Edition from Let's Celebrate and Retro Blooms pads

Sentiment die is Make and Create

Ribbon and faux Pearls from stash.

Have a great weekend everyone and see you all soon!

Ingredients Used are:

Stampendous Cling Stamp 'Snow Bird'

coloured with Promarker's on to Neenah Classic card

Wedding Card

Good Morning 

So it looks like it's going to be a lovely weekend here in 'sunny Southend' and it's a Bank Holiday here in the UK... woo hoo. Plenty of things to keep me busy! 

Anyway, I have a wedding to go to in June, it's my half brother's, that is subject to good ole Boris letting us all go. We won't know until the 21st June, my fingers are crossed for them, they should have got married March 2020. So I'm dress shopping tomorrow with my best friend. So for the occasion I have made a card for them. Their colour scheme is navy blue and burgundy. (You may not think the ribbon goes, but I wanted to add some navy and I didn't like the card with navy card stock.) So here it is...

To make this card I used the following:

7x7 card blank

Whimsy Dream Clipart image which you can find HERE, coloured with Promarker's on Neenah card

I foiled the image first in gold using my laser printer, Thermoweb decofoil and passed it through my laminator. You might not be able to see this in the photo, but it's very effective!

The dies are unknown

The font is 'The Quiet Night'

Everything else is from my stash.

Thanks for taking the time to visit and have a great weekend.

I do love a flower!

Hello friends and visitors,

So who can believe it's May already and how blooming cold it's been. We had terrible winds here in 'sunny Southend' Monday and Tuesday, they were horrendous, my mother in laws garden was pretty banged up, but she wouldn't let us go out there. I've got my second Covid jab on the 11th, I'll be so happy when I've had it, hopefully there will some normality to my life! Anyway, I have a card to share with you and I would like to thank Jules from 'Always with a Heart' blog for sharing a card from Whimsy Dreams. I fell in love with the image and decided to purchase it. I coloured it with Promarkers. So here it is...

I used a 7x7 card blank, Neenah card coloured with Promarkers, I'm not sure where the dotted paper came from, sorry, all other paper/card from a big pile of overs. I get all my ribbon from my local haberdashery shop (they are so helpful!) The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley, enamel dots from stash and double stitched square die is from eBay.

Thank you for taking the time to visit and those that leave comments are amazing, I love reading them. Have a great weekend.

It's been a while!

 Hello friends and followers.

So it's been a few weeks since I blogged - naughty me, but home life took over. I've been so busy sorting my little flat out ready for decorating, plus I had a new work top fitted in my kitchen, oh my the mess! I'm also trying to transfer everything from my laptop to a new PC - not easy. Anyway, I have made time to make some cards for birthdays coming up. Here is one of those...

I used a 6x6 card blank, Lili of the Valley stamp where you can find the digi image here, she is coloured with Promarkers on to Neenah card. Everything else is either unbranded or from my snippets box.

Thank you for visiting and I wont leave it too long next time, plus I need to visit a load of blogs, so please accept my apologies for not visiting or commenting. Have a good weekend and let's hope May is a lot warmer!

Another Easter Card

 Happy Saturday friends and visitors,

I'm on a bit of a role, the other half asked me to make some Easter cards for his family, so I couldn't really say no! I enjoyed making this one and I again coloured this using Promarkers, there is not a lot to this card, but I like the simplicity of it. So here it is...

I used the following to make this...

A2 card blank

Lili of the Valley Bunny Blooms stamp (stamps are no longer available) Digi image here 

Lili of the Valley Easter sentiments available here

Coloured with Promarkers on to Neenah card

Spellbinders Label 4

Papermania buttons
