Thanks for all your comments on my blog, they mean a lot to me.

Finn's 1st Christmas

My card today is for my Grandson's first Christmas. I wanted something bright and cheerful which I think I have accomplished.

I used my sketch # 20 from Vee's sketchpad which is a simple layout and fairly quick to make. I made mine into an easel card, one of my favourites just now.

This card fits the Colour Create challenge which is green, red and white with optional extra Christmas. I am also entering it into Charisma Cardz challenge which is anything Christmas.

I used Joanna Sheen's
Messy Rabbit and put a santa hat on him and replaced the leaves with holly, Nesties, Copics/Promarkers, Sizzix stars, papers I can't remember, sorry. cuttlebud Dots, liquid pearls and the rest from my stash.

Mojo Monday

My goodness two posts in one day, I'm just trying to make up for lost time. This card is for Mojo Monday, another lovely sketch. This card is for a family anniversary next month. My colours are a bit different for me, but I do like them.

I used Laura Ashley papers, Nesties, Woodware punch, x-cut flower punch, PB image, Liquid Pearls, copic /promarkers and the rest from my stash.

Friday Sketch

This card is based on the lovely sketch for Friday Sketchers . I enjoyed making this card, a little change from stamping.

I used DCWV paper, Woodware & X-Cut punches, Cuttlebug embossing folder, McGill leaf punch, Papermania sentiment, Liquid pearls and gems from my stash.

I made this card for my brother-in-laws birthday which is Christmas day. I used the sketch from Friday sketchers. I just managed to get this finished with the skin of my teeth. I made this card with DCWV papers, Nesties, Sizzix star, Penny Black image, Whispas inks and copics/promarkers, Cuttlebug dots.

Sorry I have been a bad blogger lately. So many family things going on just now and so little time. I made this Chrstmas card for a friend at works grand-daughter.

It happens to fit 3 challenges this week. Allsorts theme is for a child, Charisma cardz is Merry & Bright and cute card Thursday is glitter me silly (I haven't went too mad with the gitter but there is some there).

I used Disney papers form Craft Creations, DCWV papers, digital image from Digistampboutique, copic/promarkers, Nesties, Sizzlet alphabet, cuttlebug Dots, Fiskars small snowflake, stickles and gems from my stash.

I am so tired with my CFS at the moment and am just going off to bed now.

I made this card for our 34th wedding anniversary for my Hubby which was last Sunday. Its the first time I have tried this type of card and I'm really pleased how it turned out.

This card happens to fit the Allsorts challenge this week which is weddings.

I used Penny Black image, Nesties, Copics/Promarkers, mcgill leaf punch, X-cut heart and flower punches. Woodware flower punches and Cuttlebug sentiment folder.

first easel card

I hope everyone has had a great weekend. I have come to the end of my 2 weeks away from work and have enjoyed every minute, albeit busy. So its work clothes out again and preparing for the morning.

I made this card during the week so I have finally time for a quick post.

This is my first attempt at an easel card and I really enjoyed making it. I think it will be the first of many.

I made this with the sketch from Truly Scrumptious for their challenge. I used the Wendy's freebie digital image cup cake Tilly. So I am entering into her competition too. This image was a joy to colour and I'm sure I will use it again and again.

I used wendy's image , coloured with Copics/promarkers, PM papers, Nesties, Sizzlets alphabet, fiskers hearts corner punch and stickles.

Just read the addition to the truly scrumptious sketch which is 3 flowers, 3 brad and 3 gems. Whoops I didn't do those so won't be eligible. Silly me in too much of a hurry as usual.
