Thinking Of You

Morning.. Sorry I'm a little late today, tidying up after the decorator finished my wallpaper yesterday and I ended up doing a swift clean of the whole house at the same time :-)

Today's card using some of my unused stash from before Christmas that I never quite got round to before the crazy stint of travel happened.  Here is it..

Hello

Morning... Mojo is back on form and I'm back today with another card from this month's Clearly Besotted Release... I even finally think I have my studio as I want it after a mad re-organisation of furniture last night..... I'll try and take some pics finally at weekend when I have some daylight.. providing it's tidy of course :-)
Enough waffling, here is my card for today....

Best Fishes

Morning.. My mojo was definitely out of hiding last night as I managed to make 3 cards ... A happy parcel from Stephanie and a Skype chat with Rachel does wonders for getting the creative juices flowing!

I decided to show you one of the cards I made with the In Print set from Clearly Besotted Stamps first...

I love this set that was inspired by Stephanie's daughter Jasmine (Hope you are getting royalties!) and had to use this super cute little fish from the set first!

Here is what I used for my card...

That's all from me for today, I'll be back tomorrow with another creation.

A Year In Review!

Morning... So I thought today I would share my favourite cards from 2014.  This year has been a strange one and I haven't done as much crafting as many of you know. I haven't picked once from each month or anything, just those cards I have loved making so there may be a few!!

An InLinkz Link-up

Finally, thanks for all of your support throughout 2014 and I wish you a prosperous and happy 2015!!

Have a great day

Happy 'Forty-Tenth' Birthday!

Morning.. I don't normally show you cards I make for orders but I loved the sentiment on this one! and since I'm still not so well from before Christmas I though I would share this now it has been received!

The dies are from Simon Says for the Happy Birthday and Memory box for the letters and the image was a digi from the now closed Ladybug Crafts Ink...

Hope you all had a great Christmas... I now have the massive job of sorting out my craft room so I
can actually do some crafting!

Ugly Sweater!

Morning.. My dear friend Rachel added the super funny "Ugly Sweater" stamp set to her last SSS order for me so I just had to use it!  The photos of the embossing are not great I'm afraid!

I'll try and get a better photo if we get some sunlight later on today but this will have to do for now!

I followed the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #159 and I'm also entering it into Simon Says Stamps Wednesday Challenge which is Kraft!

Better get off now... busy day at work!

Have a great day

Winter Owls

Morning... I have a couple of quick cards for you today using the Winter Owl stamp and die from Lawn Fawn (Michelle this is all your fault!!)

I love how the die fits the the image perfectly! it's finished off with part of a sentiment from CBS and some embossing paste snow! I had to use the other owl I had coloured in too! Same card but different colour combo!

Hope you all have a great day and don't forget to check out my for sale page too!

Have a great day...

Christmas Blessings

Morning.. I have a really quick post for you today as I'm typing in up before work... Thought I would go for something a little non-traditional on the Christmas card front so I went with Grey and Purple!

The die is from Simon Says stamp and the snowflakes from Stampin Up... kept it really simple but it probably needed a bit of bling!

Better rush but don't forget to check out my for sale page too!

Have a great Monday!

Seasons Greetings

Morning.. I have a quick Christmas card using the Clearly Besotted set designed for Simon Says Stamps Stamptember release... I love the vintage effect...

I stamped the image using my SU pens so I could colour in each segment of the branch in the two colours and then added the pinecones.  The sentiment is embossed in gold and then I have added some snow using chunky white frantage embossing powder. Since it fits in with the theme i'll enter Clearly Besotted Challenge #14 for this month!

My for sale page is up to date so pop over and have a look...  In the mean time I'll be back tomorrow with another little card for you!

Have a great Thursday
