Time for Tea

Here are a couple of Craftrak cards I have made using the free stamp from Craft Stamper magazine.  I have rounded off the corners with a Martha Stewart punch.
The purple  one is for the lovely Linby.  I know that is her favourite colour.
I would like to take this oppurtunity in wishing all my friends a Very Happy and Healthy New Year!

See you in 2011

Purple Reign

I made this Thankyou card using a digi  from Delicious Doodles and am going to enter it into their challenge.  I used paper from BoBunny and a Martha Stewart border punch.  Some ribbon and pearls from my stash. 
I used ProMarkers for the colouring.  I love promarkers are running a challenge "Anything goes". 
Thanks for popping by.
I hope you all have a very Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you again 2011.

WOYWW - Week 82

Good Morning WOYWW's and I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas.  That's it over again for another year.  Not much happening today.  This is the lull in between Christmas and the New Year.  OH away back to work and I am trying to tidy up after all the celebrations.    To the left you can see my new Purple Cow trimmer which my son gave me for Christmas.  My latest Making Cards magazine.  The beginnings of a card using a House-Mouse stamp.  And a thankyou digi from Delicious Doodles. That's about it.  Why not hop over to Julia's blog at the Stamping Ground to find out what's going on. 
I hope you all have a very Happy New Year and ready to get crafting again in 2011. 
Thankyou for all the lovely comments you leave and all the lovely friends I have made along the way.

Good evening everybody.  Yippee I finished my christmas  shopping today.  All I have to do now is the wrapping.  I went to see Fiona yesterday and had a lovely time making this card.  The little hedgehog looks so cozy with his woolly scarf on.  I really enjoy our little get-togethers. 
I hope you are all managing to stay warm.
Thanks for looking.

My first christmas card

It's snowing again.  When will it stop?  I thought I would show you the christmas card my grand-daughter made for me.  She is only 7.  It's lovely.  She has used deckled edge scissors at the side.  The presents have all been decoupaged.  And she has handwritten her own sentiments.  I will give it pride of place.

A Winter's Tale

Hello and another cold day although the sun has been shining today.  I made this card for my two grandchildren using A Winter's Tale cd from Crafters Companion.  I followed the tutorial for the triple step card by Lisa here.  The papers are from Making Cards magazine. 
I hope you like it.  Thankyou for popping by.  Love to read your comments. Hope you are having a good weekend.

Let it snow

Hello everyone.  I hope you are all keeping warm.  I made this card using silver card and silver snowflake papers.  I stamped the snowman image and embossed him in silver.  I used a Marianne design in silver card for the frame and added a little ribbon.  I hope you like it.  I was inspired by all the snow we have at the moment.  Happy crafting.
