Just Gorjuss!!

Hello

I had a fab day yesterday at the Craft Box. The lovely Meesh did a class on how to colour with Promarkers. I learnt so much and I can't wait to play some more. I now feel like I can colour properly, lol!!

Here is another card that I made over the weekend. It is with my new Gorjuss stamp, love it.



I coloured the image with my Distress Inks again and used some lovely Strawberry paper. I made some flowers with my Marianne Die and added a a few pins with beads threaded through.



Love,

Strawberry Molly xx

Hi Everyone,

Well, last night was the first night that I felt like doing a bit of crafting and once I had started I couldn't stop.

I decided to get out my Strawberry Molly and Herb Seat and do a bit of masking. I also coloured the images with my Distress Inks for a change.

Here it is......



I used my new Stella Rose papers and I just love the vibrant colours. I edged all the papers with stickles and added glamour dust to my image.



I used some of my Magnolia flowers which were still not opened until this card. I really enjoyed colouring with the "DI" and I think my colouring has certainly come along since the last time I tried.



I also made a card with my new Gorjuss Stamp, which I love and I will try and blog this tomorrow.

Love

Magnolia Card xxx

Hi All,

I have not been the best with my blogging and commenting. I am very sorry.

My asthma has once again been a total nightmare and I am struggling. I haven't slept one single night this week straight through.

I haven't been able to craft either because I just don't have the patience at the moment, not even to colour!!

Here is a card that I made a couple of weeks ago at a class at the Craft Box. I love it when we use my favourite stamps.



I don't usually buy Easter stamps because I just don't get enough use out of them, but this one is really sweet. I don't have it myself so it was nice to use it at the class.

We used the new Marianne Dies to make the flowers. I wasn't sure at first, but now I love them I have bow bought the die!



Love,

Don't Faint, but another post.....

I thought I would be daring and post for the second time this weekend!

I made this card a couple of days ago for a card order that my Mum asked for.

I used two of the new Magnolia images which had their first "ink up" this week. How bad am I????

I decided to make an aperture with my oval nellie dies and place the picket fence from Make it Colourful in the background.



I coloured both images with my Aqua Promarkers and made the clouds myself by cutting a basic cloud shape out and inking inside the DIY stencil with my DI in Broken China.



I know the front of the card looks a little empty, but I need to put quite a long name on the top so I haven't put this on yet. Just looking for the right letters!

Love,

Owen's Birthday Cards xxx

Hi there!

How bad am I? Almost 1 month since I last blogged. I have been really busy/stressed with work and have lots on at the moment so I just haven't had the time to blog.

I am hoping to do some blog hopping this weekend as seen as I have a couple of extra days off from work.

My little Brother was 12 on Thursday (28th) and here are the cards that I made for him;

My Mum & Dads card was made using my new Molly Bloom Camper Van stamp. I love it and great for those difficult teenage boy cards.



My own card was made using the Molly Bloom Donkey. I know it's not totally "boyish" but he loves horseracing so thought it would be fun to make this card. Check out my racehorse charm!!!



My Sister's card was made using a Kenny K image. Plain and simple because my Sister doesn't craft.



My Auntie's card which she asked me to make for her using another Kenny K image. I am loving these at the moment because they are so quick and cheap to make different cards.



Hope you like them all. Enjoy the bank holiday weekend.

Love,

Little Mermaid

Just a quick post before I go and watch the Grand National with my little Brother. It's been such a great day, been shopping with my Sister in town and had our lunch together and before I went I managed to finish this card what I have been making over the last week.... bit by bit!!!

It's a "Tent" card which I learnt to make at a Molly Bloom class at the Craft Box a couple of weeks ago.

I must also apologise for the quality of the first picture but I was in a rush, hopefully the others are better.



I got my stamps out to see how many I had that would make a scene and this little Mermaid, seahorse and shell set from Magnolia were just what I was looking for. Well, it was when my Mum bought the shells for me last week to make the set up, ha ha!



I have used the Bubble Magnolia paper and I coloured the image with my new Aqua promarkers, hopefully getting better with the colouring but I love the look they give. Lots of Glossy and the new Lagoon Stickles which I just love.



I finished with some lovely blue ribbon which was only £1 for a whole role from the Craft Box - bargain!

Hope you like my card. Have a fab weekend, lets hope the weather stays nice before work on Monday!!!

Love

Happy Mothers Day x

Happy Mothers Day Everyone!

Hope everyone has a great day, hopefully the weather will stay nice.

My first card is my Mothers Day card for my Mum - my Best Friend. I don't know what I would do without her.

I made it at the Craft Box a couple of weeks ago using the new Molly Bloom stamps and Echo Park papers. I love it.





The second card was for a card order. I used the same papers as my Molly Bloom card, but used one of the new digis from Kenny K. Isn't she fab?????

Hope you like them both. Love,
