Mulberry Wood - Purr-fect Christmas!

Think I'm on a roll, I think!!! Here's my next stamped card from the Mulberry Wood range, just adore these kittens are they just the cutest!!!!

I have used 6x6 card this time and matted and layered onto just some dark green cardstock and used my X-Cut Scalloped Square die in the centre to get another layer to put my stamped image onto!

Coloured in with my trusty speccies and added some glitter.  I found some ribbon which matched perfectly and I think I only had to cut a couple of inches for either side! I stamped the sentiment which you get on the stamp sheet and coloured in all with IG2 and then added a couple of red glitzy snowflakes.

Got a bit daring in my picture and took a close up!!! Oh er!!! Hope you like it

Mulberry Wood - Merry & Bright

Thanks for popping in to see my new creation! I have spent the last couple of days on it so hope you like it!

I have used Mulberry Woods Stamped Image - Merry & Bright, isn't he so adorable with his little friend.  I have coloured him in using my trusty "Speccies" not used them in a while so had to get back used to blending!! IG1 has decided to run out on me so will have to get a refill, got it stood on its end to drain every last drop though before I do!!!

I have used Core'dinations and a beautiful backing paper from the CD on my 8x8 card.  The die I have used is one of the brand spanking new ones from the Die'Sire range from Crafter's Companion called "Enchanted Spring" when you cut the die the centre is just perfect to stamp an image onto.  I cut it twice once on red (I cut the centre out of my base layer of core'dinations so not to waste!) and then white (neenah card), thought it gave a great effect!  I have then used "Scalloped Tags" die as there are 2 perfect dies in the pack for your sentiments to be stamped, I have drawn around the die and cut it out so it layered up perfectly.

I added a couple of gems, some silver glittered snowflakes, glitter was added also to my coloured image and a piece of red ribbon!  I want to make more now using my stamps, forgot how good colouring in is!!

Morehead - Cat in a Teapot!

Well this is my attempt at a card using the new Morehead CD.  I'm saying "attempt" as all my inspiration for making a card has gone down the plughole!!!! Just cannot seem to get back into making a card for some reason, I want to but just can't!!!

To make this I have used some purple card out of my stash just to matt and layer with the gorgeous backing paper and then decoupaged the little cat in the teapot, which is so cute!
I found some paper of which I have no idea where I got it from but it changes colour, this sheet is golds and purples, I have other sheets which are pinks and purples. 
I have used one of the sentiments and then used a die from Memory Box called "Valencia Border" and then just added a few card candi!

I know it's quite basic and to be honest I'm not really sure if I like it!
Will see what this week brings! :-)


Thanks for looking!

Mulberry Woods No 2!

Just had to make another one of these cards! This time I chose the little puppy in a box!
It's so very similar to the one before I have just added different pearlescent snowflakes which look gorgeous in the light as they shine with a hint of dusky pink to match the pinks and the browns of the card.

I hope you like it!

Christmas in Mulberry Wood!!!! Yay!!!

Oh my this is the BEST CD yet from Crafters Companion!!!!! Such adorable cute little animals, it was so hard what to pick to do first!!

I must say first I got this idea for my card from one of the Crafters Companion Design Team members!
I have used an 8x8 scalloped card base. Added to it Core-dinations from the "In The Family Pack" which now seems you can't get hold of anymore, such a shame as was fantastic! I have used my Eyelet Square die to cut the shape out the centre before I stuck it down and found some ribbon to to wrap around before doing this.   I then cut out the baby elephant decoupage and glittered it up, then I used one of the fabulous new borders, aren't they just the best!  Added a sentiment and silver snowflakes and a couple of gems.

Was feeling a bit out of sorts before doing this card, just couldn't get into making a card for some reason, tiredness I think, but yesterday I went along to Franki's she was having a demo day at her Craft Shop in Darlington and Louise Welsh was there who works at Crafter's Companion and she gave me loads of inspiration and now I just want to make Christmas cards with this CD for the rest of time!!!! LOL

Thank You Louise!!! x

"The Wanted" Card

OMG, haven't blogged in ages, to be honest haven't really been making anything but hopefully back on track now!

Here is my next Commissioned card for one of my daughters friends, Charlotte! This was going to be Manga but Charlottes mum text and asked if I could do the boy band one instead! So here we have it "The Wanted"!!
I used the Serif programme for pretty much everything on this and the envelope was made using one of the backing papers from The Adorables CD.
Charlotte was over the moon and her favourite one is in the middle so worked out really well!
Oh and it's going to be framed!!

OMG!!!! 8 Cards with Little Humphrey!!

Hi Everyone on this very windy day!!!
Didn't post day before yesterday when I said I would as my daughter didn't want me to blog the birthday card I have made for her friend incase she saw it so will post that after the 6th of July!!!

So instead I have 8 cards to blog - yes 8!!! Never has that happened but I was asked by my friend Franki who has a craft shop to make her some samples, said "no probs" and she said I need them for Sunday!!!!!!!!!  She gave me the pack on Monday but I had a "gig" to go to on Tuesday night and Wednesday I was just shattered so that left me Thursday & Friday night.  I usually go to town on a Saturday but cancelled that this week to finish off.  So here goes, I hope you like them they have all been made from 1 pack of Humphrey Die Cuts and there are stacks left, well worth the money!!!
