Cindy's Tags

Hi, I had fun making 2 tags and an ATC for a swap with Cindy (hope she liked them!)

The first one I made with a Tatty Button toadstool stamp and a stampscape stamp in the sky. And on this one.....

I used a Marianne Creatable butterfly die and a Memory box flower die. I randomly stamped the background with some Kars stamps and added beads. I'm going to enter this one into the challenge over at Crafts and Me - Anything Goes :)

Thanks for looking :)

Anything but a card

Hi, the challenge over at Stampotique Designers Challenge blog this week is Anything but a card so I am going to enter this bookmark I made....

You don't have to use Stampotique stamps and this little owl is from a clear stamp set by Hero Arts.
Hope you like it,
Kay :)

Thank you

Hi, I recently agreed to swap 2 tags and an ATC in a bid to get me crafting again (I'd stopped for ages!) and I've loved making them and it also inspired me to come back to my blog. This is the card I made to send my swaps off .....

 

I'm going to enter this into the first challenge over at Ali-Craft, the theme is open. I'll also enter it into the Summer blooms challenge over at Stamping Sensations.

Something sweet

Hi, just found a lovely challenge blog A little Bit Crafty and this month the challenge is Something Sweet. I'm going to enter this card I made for a very good friend of mine (who I don't see often enough anymore!!)

I sprayed the background and stamped the cupcakes and grid (this one is a stamp by Kaisercraft). The little carrot boy is a stamp by Stampotique, isn't he cute? and the cupcake is Kanban, I coloured them both with promarkers. The candle on the cake is actually another foot I added a flame to!! lol.

Have a great day all,

Another Summer Blooms

Hi, when I think of summer flowers roses always come to mind, they are so beautiful and smell lovely. Last year a friend bought me a rose bush for my Birthday and their colour is the same as the flowers in this card I've made for my sister (can't wait for them to open again this year) ....

I'm going to enter another card into the June challenge over at Stamping Sensations They have had some fabulous entries so far and the prize is brilliant :)

Have a great day all,

In the Garden

Hi, here is a card I made my mom for Mother's day (just haven't shown it here yet!) and I absolutely LOVE the magnolia stamps by Sheena Douglass.....such a gorgeous springtime flower. I scored the front of the card and stamped the flower over this line then cut round the left hand side so it would pop out. I also popped up one of the main flowers and the little ones in the corner.

I'm going to enter this card into the challenge over at Allsorts which is In The Garden :) Hope you like it.

Note book

Hi, just a little notebook I covered to pop in my bag.

It looks a lot better than the Tesco cover it had originally! I'm going to enter it into the 2nd challenge over at Crafting Musketeers, to use a stamped image. They have some beautiful cards for inspiration from the DT members :)

Hope you like it.

Son's Birthday

Hi, my son turned 10 in the week (how time flies!!) and this is the card I made him....

His favourite dog is a Husky (although he likes lots of BIG dogs) so just had to use this stamp on here. I sprayed the background and added a few Banana Frog fireworks, then stamped and paper pieced the bunting. Hope you like it :)

I'm going to enter this into the challenges at :-
A Blog Named Hero - It's a Man's Man's Man's World [My son is definitely a special boy in my life :) ]
The Artistic Stamper - Makes for Men ........Hope this is ok as I know the card is for a 10 year old but he's my special little man :)
