Thinking of You

Ello beautiful people,
Been MIA with so much happening with the family.  I've managed to get a stall at a Sunday market.  The first time was not so good.  The second time round I managed to sell some cards and an old stamp set. Yeahyaaa.  My gf and I thought it would be nice to try and get to the markets once a month and see how we go.
Here's a card I've made that will go nicely into the challenge

A Very Happy Easter Sunday everyone,

Best B'day

Ladies and Gents,

I have to admit I love the colours for this card, fun and cheerful.  I used TE numbers dies to create my background which worked out perfectly to what I was looking for. Spellbinder's Scalloped Circle die; used with Sizzix For the Record2, Documented dies; Elizabeth Craft Birthday die, Pennyblack Best die.  I coloured the cupcake with Copics after using Elizabeth Craft Silk glitter to give that shimmer. Finally washi tape to give the lettering a background border.

Good morning me lovlies
It's Friday and my oh my time flies.  We're on the tail end of January.  I made this card using Spellbinders Decorative Labels 28, Sizzix Ornate Labels, Elizabeth Craft sticker, die andmicro glitter, Copics, washi tape, Versamark chalk.

Cherry cupcake

It's nearly Friday again.  Another start to the school year begins today.  My baby is now on the tail end of high school.  The house is once again so quiet and strange after having it busy for the last 8 weeks.  Thank goodness the day has started cooler and not like it has been the last couple of weeks being in the high 30's and humidity through the roof.

Some thing different for this card.  I used watercolour paper and spritz it with Dylusion sprays.  Stamped images from Tim Holtz range with Momento ink,  Sentiment was from Elizabeth Craft dies, as well as her cupcake sticker.  I used ds sticker and microfine glitter.  Burnished the image before using Copic markers to colour it in.  Excuse the image, I think my mobile camera has a few etchings making the photos not as clear.

Plane awesome

Happy Friday everyone,
I discovered the Taylored Expression dies with the cutest stamps that go with them.  The best thing about them are, you buy them together in the one package.  I used Tim Holtz Distress markers to colour them quickly. SU bottons for the embellishment, Elizabeth Craft dies from the tree set to make the clouds, Sizzix tag die from the "Be thankful" and a corner rounder for the tab.

Christmas tags

Hi everyone,
I was asked to make some Christmas tags for someone this year.  I decided not to stick to just traditional colours and themes and use what was in my treasure chest of goodies.  I know not all the tags have strips on them only just one in this picture.  So apologise for that.

Excavator B'day

Good morning one and all,
I think it's a start to a beautiful day.  The weather temp outside is mild and cool.  The sun is slowly peaking out from the clouds.  Been up before the birds this morning, don't ask me why.  So just sitting here watching the Crossfit finals happening in the US.  Some super fit and strong ppl.
Here's one card nearly made from purely paint samples I've collected.  They do have a lovely glossy finish to it.  Used some shimmer power and on the lettering. Going into the challenges

Lavendar b'day

Morning one and all,
A new start to the week.  My o my - how time flies.
Here's a card I've put together by trying to get more creative with all the stuff I don't use.  I'm sure many of you have the same problem.  You find stuff that's been hidden in the back of the drawer and it seems like Christmas when you re-discover it.

Morning one and all,
This weekend has been lots of viewing on the Crossfit reginonal finals all over the world watching all these super fit men and women do their workouts.

Well this card came together nicely and fits into a few on the challenges atm.  We've been having to go to the hardware storeBunnings to get stuff for painting the house and I've rediscover paint samples.  Lol so you can guess what happened.  They have a million colours to choose from and I've come across some beautiful metalic paint sample as well.  So this card has some of the samples used for die cuts. Have to admit putting this card was just a fluke when I had the various die cuts lying around on the craft table. going into

I've been asked by a mate to make a card for his mum.  Lol last year's card considered ok so I thought I'd better pull my socks up and try harder this year.  So a little I've rolled some flowers, die cut a teapot and cup to jazz it up.

Good morning beautiful people,
I can't believe I'm actually up getting ready to go to do a wod on a long weekend.  Must be short a few sausages in the barbie.  So hopeful I get this card into a few challenges this morning since the phone took so long to send to the home comp.  ANZAC is just around the corner and I had this wonderful die.  I hope this fits into the requirements needed on Freshly Made???  Opps another boo boo I think, just realized that Stuck on Sketches might want a machine die cut, I'm sure they'll let me know.

Happy Easter everyone,
Hope you all get to spend some wonderful time with family and friends.
I hope to get more cards done for all the fab challenges out there in blog land these next few days.  I sent a txt to my masseuse telling him that all the hard work he did on my legs and shoulders got lost in a workout that had a 100 wall balls, well at least I had the range of movement to get down into those squats.  Doesn't get any easier I tell you.

Mum's Birthday

Hey everyone,

Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  Been busy with my various work - cooking demos and craft shows.  On top of that I've added another day of Crossfit into the mix, as they say no rest for the wicked.  I've managed to get my hands on some of the new Elizabeth Craft dies designed by Karen Burniston.  They are so cool.  On top of that I got to meet the lady behind the company Els herself and have a photo with her for the .  She had so many wonderful sample cards she had displayed.  Wow....

I've made this card for my mother's birthday.  I've used Fancy That dies for the flowers and leaves as well as mum; Memory box die - Happy Birthday; Elizabeth  Craft dies - Accordion oval card.  Glitter, foil and double sided cardstock was used.  Tattered Angel's glimmer mist was used on the flowers.
