New Challenge at Little Claire's :)

Hi! A new challenge has started over on Little Claire's Blog. The theme is 'Anything but a card'.

Here is a tag I made for the challenge:

I used the lovely 'Blissful' stamp, which is gorgeous to colour with ProMarkers. The tag is cut with a Little Claire's die. Papers are Echo Park 'Walk in the Park' , mounted on black cardstock. Sentiment from Craftwork cards, pearls and ribbon from my stash :)

Thanks for popping by :) x

Spikey Flowers...

Hi! Just popping in to show you a card I made with 'Spikey Flowers' stamp from Little Claire's...

The image and light purple cardstock is cut using Nestabilities 'Labels 16'. I have added small gems to centre of each flower and to the petals of the larger flower. The papers are from Papermania capsule collection, mounted on black cardstock. Tag sentiment, part of a set called 'Little Beauties', is stamped in purple memento ink. Card candi from craftwork cards.

Thanks for taking a look! Bye for now :) x

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to everyone who pops in to take a look at my little blog :)

The start of the month also means a new club stamp set from Little Claire Designs :) This time they have released a lovely set called 'At Home', a great image with lovely new home sentiments too!

Again, image stamped then coloured with ProMarkers. The sentiment is another one which comes with the set :) Papers are Papermania Capusule Collection 'Blueberry Pie', mounted on blue cardstock. 3 pieces of craftwork card's Card Candi to finish the card off! Very simple :)

Hi there!

I thought I would pop by today with my last post before Christmas to show you the two 'special' Christmas cards I made this year...

This is the card I have made for my husband, using a Digistamp Boutique image, coloured with ProMarkers. The image is cut out using Standard Squares Nestabilities, mounted on red cardstock cut using Lacey Squares Nestabilities. The paper is Papermania 'Deck the Halls', ribbon & pearls from my stash.

This card, as you can see, is for our Nephew's first Christmas- not that he knows that at 7 months old! I have used a cute image from Pink Gem Designs, coloured with ProMarkers and mounted on red & green cardstock. The paper is Papermania 'Deck the Halls', with ribbon & gems from my stash.

Well a Happy Christmas to you all, hope you all have a great time :) x

Some more Little Christmas cards...

Here are some more little Christmas cards I have made, using the same layout as yesterday's... I sort of got on a roll... :)

This time I have used a set of cute santa images from Digistamp Boutique, coloured with ProMarkers... they were great fun to use! :)

I have had a craft sort out & tidy which always makes me feel good... I have also packed up my box of Christmas stash! I love making Christmas cards but I am always happy to pack the christmas stash away for a few months! :)

I am going to enter my cards in Digistamp Boutique's monthly competition for December.

Some Little Christmas Cards...

Hi, I thought I would pop by with a quick post to show you some quick Christmas cards I made using Lily of the Valley die cut images.

As you can see, the cards are really very simple. I cut the image using standard square nestabilities and the red card using Lacey Squares nesabilities. I have added Stickles glitter glue to the images and on some of them I have added some small gems from my stash :)

I made a set of five of these little cards altogether and I am very pleased with them... very simple to make yet effective too!

Thanks for taking the time to look at my cards :) x
