Hi there,

Christmas jumper

Hi there,

My son's rugby club have an annual 'Christmas Jumper Do' and so I thought this year I would take inspiration from the one he bought to make his Christmas card.


Thanks for looking and happy crafting.

More Halloween treats

Hi Crafters

I've got a couple more Halloween gift ideas to show you and a card.  The bat bag (apologies for the glare on the photo) holds a large pack of the Giant chocolate buttons, (see side view) and the Yankee Candle tart burner is a nice idea to give someone to burn on Halloween night.  The fragrance is 'Autumn Pumpkin', very apt.





The card is one I made the other day, it's a bit late to send now so I shall save it until next year.


Thanks for looking and a Happy Halloween to everyone.

Halloween

Hi there crafters,

Its been a long time since I have posted.  I have not been 100% of late but, fingers crossed, I am now on the road to recovery.
 
I have a few Halloween items to show you.



The bats and ghosts are on acetate and so they have cast a shadow on the card but you can still get the idea.

Now, with time on my hands I have been messing around with these for the kids.  I shall fill them with Halloween sweets nearer the time.




Thanks for looking and happy crafting.

Last of the January class cards

Hi Crafters,

Just thought I would show you the last of the cards that we made in our January classes.  The pink and black card is using the Papermania Poppy stamp with Imagine That's leaf stamp in the background and the daisy card is made using  'Carol's cube' by Judi-kins, available from Stamp Addicts.  I love daisies and out of all the daisy stamps that I have, and I have plenty,  I always come back to this one.  It's one of my first stamp purchases.

Back soon with some February class cards and thanks for looking.

January card classes

Hi crafters,
Just thought I would show you some of the cards we have been making in our January 2011 card classes.  In one class that I do, we are all members of the Clarity stamp club and so I try to incorporate Barbara's monthly stamp into at least one of the cards.  Here, I have used the leafy rod stamp for the stems and also the subtle background paper.  The flower heads are from Imagine that.

The second card is a Lily of the Vally image.  If you are familiar with this image you will know that there is no back to the car and so I have placed it through a circle to solve the problem.

Thanks for looking and happy crafting
