Here's One I Made Earlier!

Another Happy Saturday

Hi all, I'd like to wish any American friends who visit the blog a happy 4th of July, enjoy your holiday weekend. 

I know I've been quiet this week, but I do have an excuse! I've damaged my shoulder apparently its a 'Rotator Cuff' injury. I woke up with it and it's blooming painful. This means crafting went out the window! However, I do have lots of things I have made that I can post and I will show one today for you, it's one of the biggest crafting items I have ever made. So here it is...

I made this selfie frame for my friends baby shower back in 2018! To make this I purchased the poster board from The Range and I cut out the middle using a Stanley knife, then I made all the decorations using my Cricut machine and all the designs are from their Design Space.

I hope you like it, have a good week and stay safe, especially those in England as it's a day where we can now visit pubs and restaurants!

Happy Saturday

Good Morning

Hi all, I hope you've had a good week and got some crafting done in this extremely hot weather we are having in the UK. It's been too hot for me and to be honest I haven't done much. As a diabetic I have noticed that my sugar levels have been a touch higher than normal and this makes me tired! Anyway,  I have loads of bits to do, so this weekend I will be crafting.

So I am showing a quick card I made for a birthday, I have loads coming up.

I love this stamp from Lili of the Valley you can find the digi image here, it's so sweet. I have coloured it with Hunkydory Prisms, the papers I've have had for ages and I don't know where they came from... sorry. The stitched square die is unbranded, flowers and ribbon from stash.

I'm having a crafty de-stash you can find the bits for sale here.

Thanks for passing by and stay safe.

Bildmalarna - Who Remember's these Stamps?

Hello Again

So, where has the week gone let alone the weekend. It's been lovely here in Southend and I do wish I had a garden to sit in. So I have been following the free classes on Kit and Clowder and more practice is still needed. It's where to put the shading that puzzles me. I know I will get there in the end!!

Anyway, I have a couple of cards to share with you today. They are cards using mini Bildmalarna stamps. Sadly Bildmalarna closed down, I loved their stamps. I've coloured them both using watercolour pencils from Hunkydory (Prisms). I found them easy to use considering I am a novice at colouring with this medium. 

How cute are they?

Have a good week, if you're passing by my blog, please say hello, it's not compulsory. 

Take care and stay safe.

A Wedding No More!

Hello Friends

Well who would have thought that the amount of rain that fell overnight here in Southend. I know a lot of gardens needed the downfall! Glad it's a bit brighter now, I can get on with some colouring. I'm following the free tutorial from Kit and Clowder. I've learnt about shading and it's a mind field!

Anyway on to my creation. I made this for a wedding for friends who unfortunately, due to lockdown and Covid 19 had their wedding cancelled. All those preparations. They're now getting married in 2021. So here is what I made them....

I made this using a frame I bought from Poundland, it had a black butterfly on it and I managed to take it off. I created the design in Cricut Design Space and cut the vinyl with my Cricut using a holographic vinyl, I changed the ribbon to a bright gold and added the bow. I've put a piece of white card at the back to take the photo so you can see the image better. Luckily I can take off the date and change it for the new one.

Anyway, thank you for looking and stopping by and enjoy the rest of your week.

Stay safe.

My Fav - Daisy

Good Afternoon

So what a beautiful day we have here in Southend, after getting soaked yesterday queuing for my shopping!

Anyway on to my card, it's one of my favourite stamps from Elisabeth Bell - Daisy, I think she is so sweet. My colouring is still pants, so I have decided to sign up for some colouring classes with Kit and Clowder so I can improve! So for the time being I wont be entering into any challenges. I will still update my blog as it is good therapy for me. So here is my card...

I've coloured her with Promarkers, the sentiment is Lili of the Valley all other items are from my stash drawer.

Have a good week and thanks for passing by. Stay safe.
