Dressing Up

Good Morning all!

Here I am with another card to share!

This one is made using the

Flippin Families CD Rom

This is Let's Dress Up.

 It reminds me of my sister & I when we were younger,

dressing up in mum's clothes & trying out her make up! lol!

The papers are from the CD Rom too.

For those of you who don't like to use CD's

I'm not sure if the design is available as a download or a pre printed

sheet just yet but I'm sure it will be at some point!

A closer look at the image. You can see the 

little die- cut coathangers & the doily in the background.

These have been in my stash forever & I'm glad they are now 

seeing the light of day!

The inside of the card, decorated in a similar fashion to the outside.

A little side view to show a bit of the dimension.

Thanks for popping in, I hope you like my card!

Spinning Sid

Good morning all! Did you think I was lost? lol

It's Thursday & it's time for a card using a 

Just Inklined image!

Here it is!

This is Spinning Sid! 

I've used him to create a CAS card for a  senior Cyclist or Spinner!

 Here's a closer look at the image!

I just love creating cards with Kraft & muted colouring!

I've coloured Sid with flexmarkers, you can't see all the shading in the 

photo, as it is light but I'm happy that I achieved the look I was aiming for!

I inked the image with Old Paper Distress Ink, whilst still in the die then added 

some die cut cogs & a sprocket as well as a computer generated sentiment.

Here's a little side view just to finish up!

Thanks for popping in! I hope you like it!

Spring into Spring

Good Morning all,

It's time for a brand new challenge over at 

Crafting For All Seasons where the theme is 

Spring into Spring

Our Sponsor this time is

Stitchy Bear Outlet

Here's my creation

The image I have used is Spring Lambs from Just Inklined

I lightly coloured it with flexmarkers then cut out with a nestie

& inked with old paper distress ink.

The papers are pages from an old Complete works of Shakespeare book 

& are inked too although they already looked aged.

The flower was from my stash as was the seam binding.

You can see the card is open just a little to give you an idea 

how it works if you haven't seen one of these before!

Here's a look at the side with the card half open.

The card will fold flat for posting!

Here's it tied back up again.

I love this style of card, be they CAS or heavily embellished!

I reckon this would be a great thank you card for a man.

Thanks for popping in this time!

I hope to see you in the challenge at CFAS!

Just Inklined To Hop - Fancy Folds

Good Morning all you lovely blog readers!

This is my second post this morning!

(For My Ooh La La Creations post, please scroll down!)

It's time for the March Just Inklined  Hop

This month, it's my turn to host & I chose the theme of

Fancy Folds!

I have to say I wasn't the most popular person for choosing it LOL!

Now, without further ado, here's my card!

I've made a little spring card! The image I have used is 

Cherry Blossom

I used shades of Amethyst to colour it this time! 

It's a perfect image for a spring birthday or indeed anytime of the year.

 I can think of lot's of other occasions it could be used for too!

Now, if you're anxious to hop on, you next stop is

If you want to read a little more about this card then read on!

Here is the card with it's matching die cut tag!

You could either use the tag to write the greeting or as a gift tag!

I used  a mix of promarkers & flexmarkers to colour the image.

I cut the image out with an oval nestie, then inked the edges & the sentiment with 

a liquid chalk inkpad. The papers I have used are by DCWV

they have been around for some time & I had used up nearly all of mine, 

but I managed to procure some from a friend who was having a crafty clearout!

I threaded several strands of twine through the hole in the tag.

Here's a little side view to let you see the fold if you're not familiar with it.

The recipient of this card is the lady who taught me how to make these.

She also loves purple so I'm hoping she likes it! lol

Happy Anniversary

Good morning peeps!

Don't you just love Mondays?

To cheer you all up, it's time for a new challenge at

"Happy Anniversary"

Here's my card!

I've used one of the toppers from the

Passion For Fashion CD- Rom.

Here's a closer look at the sweet image.

The papers I have used are from the MME

Paisley collection stack.

I made a little rosette with a scrap of sheer ribbon with hearts on

& stitched a little heart button in the centre.

The sentiment & corners are peel offs which have been in

my stash for a very long time but I do like to use them from time to time!

A little side view of my card & you can just see the inside is decorated too!

Good Morning all!

This card was made using Silver Foxtrot from The Wrinklies CD Rom

If you, or your pocket don't fancy the CD Rom, you can buy it as 

an instant download or a pre printed sheet here

I added a circle sentiment which I made up in my graphics program,

the sentiment which came with the image was matted & layered with

a little ribbon loop then slipped in behind the image.

The footstep & music papers are from the CD too!

The pink paper is Papermania.

The faux silk ribbon is from my stash.

I decorated the inside of the card too

A little side view to show the dimension of the decoupage.
