Happy Birthday Tina

Lots of my friends seem to have birthdays in September!

Today it's Tina's birthday and I've made her a card using the Brights Stack together with the Big Shot and Top Note die.  The leaves are another die - Sizzlets Little Leaves.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Crafts for Christmas

I've had a lovely day with Kathy making Christmas cards.   I know it's still a bit early but to get us in the right mood, we had mince pies ...

We had everything out!  Christmas stamp sets (Delightful Decorations & Contempo Christmas) as well as lots of punches - including the owl punch to make Father Christmas ...

We used the soon to be retired Jolly Holiday DSP and co-ordnating cardstock and inks.

These are the results ...

A great day.  Looking forward to the next one already

Happy Birthday Vanessa

A card for my friend Vanessa who is celebrating her birthday today.

I've used the soon to be retired Springtime Vintage DSP and punches for the butterflies, flower and scallop borders.

Have a lovely day Vanessa

Happy Birthday Janet

Today is the birthday of my lovely friend, Janet.  I made this card for her using some of the retiring Stampin' Up! papers which I just love.  The background is from the Springtime Vintage DSP with matching seam binding ribbon.

I just had to use the top note and emboss it with the polka dot embossing folder in the Big Shot! 

Happy birthday Janet and I hope you have a lovely day

I'm back!

Apologies for the lack of posts recently but I've just moved house and everything has been packed in boxes.  Most of them are now unpacked and I can start crafting again.

Today's card is a general birthday card which is always a useful thing to have in the cupboard.  The background is actually a Christmas paper from last year but it gives a lovely luxurious look to the card.

The weather is so miserable today, I might just have to craft this afternoon - shame!

Happy 21st Birthday

Today is Imogen's 21st - I can't believe she is 21!  It doesn't seem long since she was a babe in arms ...

The background paper I've used is from a Christmas special last year but it has such a lovely velvety feel that it brings a touch of luxury to the card.  As you can see, I've used the Top Note die and also the square lattice embossing folder to give some texture and also embed the "21".

Hope you have a lovely day Imogen
