It's Winter!!!

Well at least it is in Liverpool. OMG it's soooo cold and I really don't want to put the heating on right now, trying to hold out until at least the end of the month (shiver, shiver.) May be some crafting will take my mind of it.....lol

Just got a few cards to show that I've made over the last few weeks but didn't get around to posting, for one reason or another.



I'm so pleased with myself that this card actually turned out, used my brayer and SU inks to make it, just love the little bits of dazzling diamonds on it.


This card has been CAS'd from the one below, just adore the original card but tried it in a different colour combo and I do believe I prefer the original.....lol


This is the card my SU Mummy (Monica) sent me for my birthday, back in August.

Thanks for stopping by and I promise I will be back 'sooner' with some more cards.

Enjoy your weekend

Craft Night.

Just a quick post this morning, got to go shopping (groan.) Last week I went to Keren's house, (my friend and fellow demo) and we had a lovely night just crafting and chatting. So these are a few of the cards we made, there is another one but I haven't quite finished putting it together yet (too much chatting) but as soon as I do I will show it.



This one is Keren's design, I love the simplicity of it and will definitely use this layout again.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Disney Time!

Wow, it's been awhile, where did August go then....lol and here we are halfway through September which means only 2 more weeks until the release of the new Stampin'Up! catalogue....woohoo!!!!

I'm struggling to take in how fast the time is passing, my children are getting so big and grown up. It feels like my eldest started high school last year but nope, it was 2 years ago and now he starts in Year 9 (3rd year to some of us.....lol) and this year decides on his options - he's so excited (bless him) hope he's still this excited in another 12 mths. .....lol.

Anyway, here are a couple of cards I made for commissions, I do love making these cards they always looks so good (even if I do say so myself......lol)



Both cards were made using my Cricut machine and Disney cartridges.

Sorry for the short post but I'm so tired, think I might go to bed now :)

Thanks for visiting me.

40th Birthday Card.

Just thought I'd pop back to show you a card I've made for a work colleague who turns the big 40 in a couple of weeks.




Because I've had so many cards to make in a short space of time, I decided to use a digi download to make it quicker, these really are invaluable when you don't have much time. I haven't put any layers on this card just a bit of sparkle and the odd gem.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

On A Roll!!

Introducing my second Christmas card, I think that's quite good for me, I'm usually doing a last minute rush to get them sent out before Christmas eve! Just another simple one using that absolutely gorgeous embossing folder from SU 'Square Lattice', it just gives a beautiful effect almost makes the cardstock look like material and only £6.95!



I've used my ever faithful 'Season of Joy' stamp set (I think it's my fav. Christmas set from SU, so versatile) to stamp the images, teamed with 'Cherry Cobbler' it's the perfect Christmas red. Once you have stamped your image(s) run it through the bigshot in the square lattice embossing folder and 'hey presto!' gorgeous card.

Well, two more weeks left and it's back to the grind stone, can't believe where these last four weeks have gone, they've flown by. I have a few more cards to show but I'll keep them for another day.

Thanks to you if you visit my blog, I really appreciate it.
