a quick birthday card .....

just when I thought I was all ahead for this next month another card is needed ....

Kraft and white is one of my favorite combinations....the easel card is made using Tonic Petunia trellis...a tonic sentiment ...and some Tim Holtz flowers and foliage from funky florals 3....which are great fun....
Thank you for popping by my blog today and I hope your crafting is going well...and you are having fun.

week 5 using old stash.....

its amazing just how much stuff I have got and forgotten....this is a tattered lace die bought in 2016...

Art Deco skaters....Sue wilson embossing folder...falling snow,and Sue's ivy leaves...the holly flower is a Cloe die....a few gems and some glitter....
I hope you are having a good Sunday and sending out a hug to those of my friends in need of one at the moment.....I wish I had a magic wand.....
Thanks for popping by today I much appreciate it .

christmas card club challenge 2....Cute

it is Sylvie's choice this week and I immediately thought about a stamp and die set I bought last year and still had not used.....

its called seated elf from stampendous.....I covered it in glossy accents hence the not so brilliant photo
Do pop round the other girls in the club and see their lovely makes...the links to their blogs is on my side bar....
thanks for visiting today I really do appreciate it .

old stash week 2....

well I was being good until my cricuit gave up on me...I have always promised myself a new one since they gave up support for my old expression and I could no longer access the on screen app....so now I have bitten the bullet...going to be fun learning a new machine....
I am still determined that all this years cards will be made using existing stash.....

I have used Heartfelt creations stamps and dies and the sentiment is Sue Wilson...
Hope you are having a lovely day today its miserable cold and wet here and we are forecast snow for tonight ...so perfect for crafting.....
thanks for popping by my blog I really appreciate it .

a windy day.....

well what a morning ..the wind is howling round the house definitely not a day to be venturing out ...so I have just finished off a card....

made using a paper boutique frame...an LOTV topper.....lots of glitter and a Marianne designs sentiment....I am really finding it hard to get back into crafting this year.... I think its because I am not buying anything new.....I am still being good ....
Hope you are having a lovely weekend and thank you for popping by today.

old stash......week 1

as you know I am determined to start using up all mydies,paper pads and stash that is already in my craft room....

this is made with Heartfelt creations 2016 snowkissed collection....and the poinsettia and holly cluster stamps and dies.....lots of glitter and glossy accents.....and the paper has been embossed with Sue Wilsons snow folder and slightly rubbed back.....
I hope that you are getting back to your crafting after the holidays...I must admit I am finding it slow going....
thanks for visiting today I really appreciate all your comments .

Christmas card challenge 1....Christine's choice ....snowflakes

the first challenge of 2019....and my new years resolution is to make all this years cards using existing stash.....I managed not to buy anything new for the last 3 month of the year so I am going to see how long I can do.....
this one is a clean and simple design.....

I used an old embossing folder...apple blossom let it snow...the snowflakes and the sentiment are from tonic...a nice simple start..
There is a list of the other girls in the groups blogs with links on my side bar...please pop and see their wonderful creations.....and thank you for visiting my blog today.

2019.......happy New Year

my first post of the new year ....I hope it brings you whatever you wish for yourself.....
I have made a new years resolution...yes....... and I hope that I can stick to it...quite simply not to buy from selly telly and to use all the stash that I bought last year....I managed for 3 months at the end of last year...so here goes...



this card is for my dear old uncle Mark who is still hanging on in there.....

my lovely niece treated me to lots of Heartfelt creation goodies for Christmas ...bless her...so this colourful card is made using the buttons in bloom collection...really cheery and bright....
