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.

Thanks for stopping by,

FUSSY & FANCY FRIDAY CHALLENGE - 'Thanks'

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,
