VINTAGE ANGELS

Hi everyone

Here I have another Vintagey card which I made, again back in August 2016. I always have loved this type of layout, but somehow I struggle to photograph them to their best advantage.

I used the Dutch Doobadoo Star shape, and selected papers which I purchased from Live and Love Crafts when that lovely shop was open.  The flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The cheesecloth is available to purchase from Noor Design UK and it really is the finest quality..



Thanks for stopping by.

VINTAGE CHRISTMAS

Hi everyone

I notice the date on this photo is 2016!  So I am guessing as I usually make Christmas cards early it must have been made probably summer 2016!

It is a fairly simple design, using the large die-cuts to form the background shape, and the JOY die curving round the image at the top left corner.

I just love the vintage images!  Very often we tire of a type of image and move onto something else, but I never tire of these.

The flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts.



Thanks for stopping by.

VINTAGE CHRISTMAS

Hi everyone

Here we have another Vintagey design, and this one is one I made way back when!?  I know that by the layout!  It is one I used such a lot at one time.  Iam guessing that it was very much a stash card to be honest.  The two dies were from Noor Design UK, I do know that.  And the flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts originally.



Thanks for stopping by.

VINTAGE LADY

Hi everyone

I am gradually wading through my saved photos but it has got to the stage where I am not sure just what products I used.  This is one of those cards, and it was made a while ago.  What I do know is that I love that image!  And I also know that it is one I purchased from Live and Love Crafts when they were open.  How we miss Sandy and her lovely shop!

The two dies, a butterfly border die and a leafy border die both came from Noor Design UK and the flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts.



Thanks for stopping by.

A MAGIC MOONLIGHT MOMENT

Hi everyone

I had a Magic Moonlight Moment here.  I have always loved this image from Magic Moonlight and it is one I turn to very often whilst looking through their selection of free images.

There are one or two die-cuts peeping through here and there.  Everything came from Wild Orchid Crafts. Noor Design UK and my stash.



Have a good weekend everyone.  And thanks for stopping by.

PION OR MAJA

Hi everyone,

Well, I clean forget which papers I used here.  I made this card some time ago, and I know I had fun using up things from my stash of Pion and Maja papers etc.  It was very much a card made from stash because the flowers are some I had in my box for ages and they just seemed to be the right colour to co-ordinate.



Thanks for stopping by.

NO IMAGE GIFT BAG


Hi everyone

There is not a lot to say about this one really.  It is a gift bag |I altered using up bits from my stash.  You will see three different papers were used, and yes they were scraps from my stash.  The lace and trim are both from my stash and the flowers are from Noor Design UK.


Thanks for stopping by.

PION FUN


Hi everyone

It was a while back when I made this card but I remember I had a lot of fun using some of my Pion products.

The cheesecloth and trim came from Noor Design UK, as did the JOY die at the top left and the roses.  The roses are tinged with Dutch Doobadoo Structure paste.  Anything else came from my stash.

MERRY CHRISTMAS DIE


Hi everyone

Well I hope you all had a good weekend.

Here today we have a card I made recently, again using Gilding Polish on the die-cuts and part of the embossed background.

The tree is a Digi image which I beaded.

The embellishments came from Wild Orchid Crafts, Noor Design UK and of course my stash.

The Merry Christmas die-cut is a curved JOY die which I cut up to form the wording at the top right corner.  I just love this die.  It came from Noor Design UK a few months ago.  The red trim came from my stash as did the lace beneath.


Thanks for stopping by.

WINDOW CARD


Hi everyone

And another window card!  I really do love making window cards!  

This card is a recent one I made adding Gilding Polish to the die-cuts and part of the embossed background.  I added a little lace to dress the window and quite like the effect.  The embellishments are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Noor Design UK.  And of course from my stash.



Happy weekend everyone and thanks for stopping by,

LACE TREE

Hi everyone

Here I have a card to show you which I made a little while ago.  The photo is not very straight I am afraid.

First I made the lace tree.  This was simply a triangle of card which I added the lace and pearl trim to.  I first made one of these some years ago and was reminded to make some more a few weeks ago.  My style has changed somewhat since those days though, I add so much more to my cards these days.  This one was supposed to be less elaborate but somehow I just do not seem to be able to make cards without adding embellishments!



Thanks for stopping by.

HOBBY HOUSE TOPPER - Christmas


Hi everyone

Today I am sharing a card I made using one of the lovely Hobby House Toppers.  This set was a gift to me in the Summer and I am finding it so useful!

So, here we have an embossed background.  I love the embossed look!  I have used a selection of die-cuts and beautiful embellishments from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The flowers are tinged with Dutch Doobadoo Structure Paste.  I cannot get enough of that stuff!  And anything else came from my stash.



Thanks for stopping by.

THROUGH THE WINDOW


Hi everyone

I am a little late today in posting.  The system seems to have gone wrong somewhere! lol  However, I am here with a tag card which I made a while ago using this lovely window die which I purchased from Noor Design UK earlier in the year.  I have used this die such a lot.

This is quite a simple design, using pretty papers and image behind the window and embellishments from Wild Orchid Crafts and Noor Design UK.  It will come as no surprise that I delved into my stash too.



Thanks for stopping by, and again for all your lovely comments too.

NO IMAGE CARD Take 2

Morning everyone

Well, I am gradually wading through my saved photos to share, but there is a good way to go yet.

I have another card with no image to share today.  You know I was pretty amazed that I could do this sort of card.  It was quite a challenge for me.  I posted one of these the other week, but this was made at the same time.  I sort of got quite hooked on making these.

The lovely window die and papers were from Noor Design UK as were some of the embellishments.  I think the papers were Lemoncraft.  Anything else was from either Wild Orchid Crafts or my stash.

Hi everyone

Today sees the start of another Challenge at http://fussyandfancychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/


It is Theresa's  turn to host this challenge and the chosen theme is 'Thanks ' .  I interpreted this to mean Thanksgiving.





The image was created by Sylvia Zet and is in the form of a Hobby House topper.  The papers are a Craft and You pack called 'Wedding Garden'.  I love these packs of papers!  The embellishments are a mixture from Wild Orchid Crafts, Ribbon Girl and Noor Design UK.


It would be lovely if you had time to pop over and see the Design Team's beautiful inspiration and even better if you fancy joining in with the challenge. (http://fussyandfancychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/ )

As always, thanks for looking,

CHRISTMAS GIFT BAG

Morning everyone

I have a photo of a Gift Bag which I made to share today.

Yes this is a stamped image!  One I coloured up some time ago, but that will come as no surprise to you!  It is an old Magnolia stamp.

This was very much made from my stash.  The embellishments were from Wild Orchid Crafts and Noor Design UK.  You will just be able to see the Structure paste from Dutch Doobadoo on the flowers I think.

Anything Goes at CHRISTMAS AT SWEET STAMPIN'

Hi everyone

I am so delighted to be here today to share my card for  http://christmasatsweetstampinchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/.  Full details can be found by clicking the above link.


As always,  it is the easiest theme ever - Anything Goes Christmas! 


So, here is what I made.   This time it is another Paper Bag Card.  I am so pleased that Karina (who is on the Dt for Noor Design UK) shared a tutorial on her Blog some months ago.  Since that day I have been hooked on making these!


The papers are from a pack called 'Cricket on the Heath' by Lemoncraft I think? The Shabby white embellishments were from Noor Design UK, as was the Dutch Doobadoo Structure Paste which has been used to tinge the embellishments.  Love this stuff!  The dies all came from Noor Design UK.  




The detachable tag from the side:





And the inside



It would be lovely if you could find time to pop over and see the amazing work of the Design Team, and even better if you were to take part in the Challenge.

As always, thanks for looking,

GIFT BAG

Morning everyone

Thursday already!  Where is the week going to!  It seems to be flying by so fast!

I am sharing a photo of a Gift bag I made some time ago.  I think this could be suitable for many occasions, even Christmas.

I am not sure which papers I used now to be honest, (they could be from a Tim Holtz pad) but the embellishments were a mixture from Wild Orchid Crafts, Noor Design UK and of course from my stash.



As always, thanks for stopping by,
