BABY BOY CARD

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't posted for a while but I have been sick with a nasty flu and have lost all my passion for crafts.

Before I got sick I made this baby card for a friend and with the challenge over at Let's Craft & Create  being "Buttons & Bows" I thought it would be good for some inspiration for all.

Papers and image are from the Forever Friends CD.  I have added some wee star buttons and some organza ribbon.

Come on over and see the other designer teams creations and join in yourself.

LESS IS MORE

This fortnights challenge at Let's Craft & Create is "LESS IS MORE".

For some inspiration for this challenge I would like to share with you a birthday card I made.

I bought this gorgeous adhesive ribbon and together with some black and silver card this is what I came up with.  The embossing folder I have used is a Cuttlebug and the sentiment is a rubon.

Thank you for stopping by.  Don't forget to check out our new fortnightly challenge.

VALENTINES DAY

It's challenge time again (YAY).  This fortnights challenge over at Let's Craft & Create is all about your valentine.  In this challenge we would like to see your lovely creations you make for that someone special in your life.

This challenge works well for me as my husband and I are about to celebrate our 11th Wedding Anniversary in February so I have made him something a little special.

The image for this card comes from The Paper Shelter and the sentiment from The Pink Petticoat.

In my stash I came across this wee heart tin.  I decorated it with some ribbon and roses added a tag and filled it with some yummy jelly beans.

ANYTHING GOES

As Christmas creeps up upon us it is time for another challenge over at Let's Craft & Create.

Our challenge this time is "ANYTHING GOES"

This challenge is going to run for 3 weeks instead of the normal 2 weeks to take us over the Christmas & New Year period.

For this challenge I have made a simple card and a wee pouch to hold some hair clips and ties.

For the card I have used a Cuttlebug embossing folder and a Spellbinder Blossom Die.  The ribbon is from Ribbon Girl and the bling is from my stash.  The image I have used is one from the Forever Friends cd rom.

For the pouch I have used the same materials but on a smaller scale and have also used a Sizzix embossing folder.

I also made the hair clips and hair ties.

We look forward to you coming on over and visiting us and please do enter our challenge.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and New Year.

ROUND AND ROUND

This fortnights challenge over at Let's Craft & Create is named ROUND AND ROUND.
(Use a circle or circles on design).

I have made two cards for this challenge.

I made this card for a relatives birthday.  The image and paper I purchased from The Paper Shelter and I made the circular sentiment on my computer.

For my second card I have made this Christmas countdown easel advent card.  I purchased the digital kit from The Printable Craft Shop.  I thought this card would be perfect for my parents as they have a dairy farm on the West Coast of the South Island in New Zealand.

Please come on over and check out our blog and please feel free to enter.  Everyone is welcome and who knows you may just win a wee prize. 

See you there.
