Get Well Soon

I hope you are all having a lovely Saturday.  What a miserable day it has been here.  The sun is just coming out now.  I have spent a lovely afternoon in my craft room.  Hubby is away out playing golf in the rain!

I made this card for a friend of mine who is not well.  I got the inspiration from Creative Cardmaking magazine using Marianne Creatables doily dies.  I was so pleased the way it turned out.

And this little Easel Card was made just for the fun of it. 
I hope you like them.

Happy Easter.

A hole in one

Hello all.  What a glorious day it has been today.  I hope it lasts for a wee while at least.

I was asked to make a man's card (I hate making men's cards) for a 65th birthday and he likes golf.  I used free papers from Creative Cardmaking.  I think it is a docraft stamp.  Some ribbon from my stash.

I am going to enter it into the following challenges -

Top Tip Tuesday - Open Challenge

Please let me know what you think.  Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Good Morning Monday.  I hope you are all well.

Here is a card I made for a friend who has not been too good recently.   I used free papers from Cards for all Occasions.  Coloured with promarkers, ribbon and buttons from my stash.

I hope you like it.  Have a good day.

I used Polychromo pencils to colour in Tilda.

I especially liked the bunny punch.  This card was made at a craft class. 

The challenge closes on 29th April.

Hello ladies and what a glorious day it is here.  I hope you are all enjoying this brilliant sunshine.

I made this card using a Penny Black stamp - Bees and Bunny coloured with ProMarkers.  The papers are from The Nit Wits Collection.  I was lucky enough to win two collections in a Giveaway.  The flower has been made using a scrap of material left over from a cushion I made.  The butterfly, button, ribbon and pearls are all from my stash.

More than 1 fold

Hello everyone and I hope you are all well.  Yesterday I took the grandchildren to the zoo and as everything is on a hill, we had quite a climb resulting in sore muscles today.

  I made this card last Sunday at my craft club and thought I would enter it into Moving along with the times challenge - more than 1 fold.

It was quite a fun card to make with lots of bits and pieces. I will certainly try it again.   Hope you like it.

Buttons and Bows

Hello everybody.  It's Friday again.  Hasn't it been a quick week?  I hope you are all well. 

I found out this morning that I had won a prize from Complete Cardmaking.  It was two collections from NitWits - Carrot  Patch and Bunny Hop.  They are gorgeous.  Can't wait to use them.

I was crafting with Fiona - lildaffodil last Tuesday.  What a good blether we had.   You really have to have a look at her blog.  She makes beautiful cards.  She gave me inspiration to make this easel/gatefold Easter card. 

The papers I used are from NitWits.  A Lili of the Valley stamp coloured in using ProMarkers.  The ribbon, button, flowers and butterfly are all from my stash.

I am going to enter it into the following challenges -
