A few cards

2011-09-16T19:31:00.004+01:00

Hi everyone I've not posted anything for a while, I have been doing lots of crafting, but not had time to upload it. Here's some of the cards I've made using two new paper pads from Trimcraft, New Leaf and Isabelle both are on sale from next week. The colours and patterns are lovely and some papers are embossed, glittered and double sided. I've used some of the Pepper images and coloured them with pro markers.

Shaped card

2011-09-02T19:26:00.002+01:00

Hi everyone I can't believe it's September already, I've not posted for a while because I've not done much crafting. I thought I would upload this card I made a few weeks ago. I love the shape the paper is a 12x12 double sided piece. I think it's Bo Bunny, but I'm not sure.

Pretty in pink

Hi everyone I hope you've all had a lovely day. I've been crafting this afternoon and made a card using another image from the Fundraising for Lyndall blog. I've used the same colour combo for this one. The lovely ribbon is from Meiflower crafts and works so well with the pink and green colour combo.

You make me happy

Hello everyone

This cute dragon image is from Fundraising for Lyndall. I've got another lovely image, but not had time to use it yet. These images are to raise money for Lyndall and her family, you can find out more at Fundraising for Lyndall blog or on Cheryl's blog. I've coloured the image with promarkers and copic's. There's also a pre coloured image of this dragon on the blog (if you do not want to colour it) in green and pink, that's where I got the inspiration from for my colour combo. The papers are from a back to basics pack by Dovecraft.

Morning all

For this card I have coloured the lovely Little Claire image with distress inks.

The swirl bp I made using an embossing folder, distress ink and micra powder.

The gems are from Mieflower crafts, Mei has some offers on her lovely red ribbon at the minute so pop over there and take a look, it's perfect for Christmas cards.
