Thick as Thieves–Sassy Cheryl's

Definitely best pals these these two don’t you think?

Thick as Thieves by Sassy Cheryl’s

J

You just have to love the expression on the dogs face, I coloured the image with Copic markers and chalk pencils and teamed it with Graphic45 paper.

the flowers are from Wild orchid and the pearls from Mei Flower 

I’m having an extra day off work, I thought with Monday being a bank holiday here in the UK I would take Thursday off work along with Chris, it will be lovely to have 5 days off together, we were hoping to get out today on our bikes but we have had every type of weather from Sunshine to hail stones so we decided against it.

We did however go and see about a new kitchen, but, I will keep that story for another day.

Behind Closed Doors Pop Up CD Cards

Just popping in to share the cards I made when I was at Create and Craft TV last week

If you haven’t got your CD yet there are still a few left here

Its always fun to send a card that pops.

 

I made this one into an easel card and used the stone backing paper from the CD

A summery feel to this one with the little field mouse and the strawberries. Again used the Backing papers from the CD.

All the elements to make stunning cards from the CD

Come Here Often?–Sassy Cheryl's

Sometimes you stumble upon an image that you just have to have, this was that image for me.

Come here Often by Sassy Cheryl’s

It is one from the Noah collection which reminds me of Grandson Jack

 

I teamed it with a striped paper, a couple of ribbons and a button and twine.

I had great fun colouring this one with Copic Markers and Chalk pencils.

At the age of 22 years old

It's unbelievable to think that Natalie has just turned 22 years of age, I pride myself on bringing up my children to be mature adults. so maybe I was wrong ha ha!

Natalie sent me this tonight very proud of her and partner Charlie making a movie to kill the boredom of staying in on a Saturday night, I think they have been watching too much Eurovision.

 

 



 



Golden Rose

I love days when I get to play and experiment, it doesn’t always lead to a card and sometimes in fact often can lead its way right into the trash can but sometimes I can get something I quite like from it.

Today I was playing around with glimmer mists, I had to dust them off first as they had been sitting on the top shelf in my craft room, I took a cream rose and spritzed it with the golden shimmers mist.

 

I used the Cuttlebug to emboss a background piece of card and found some guilding cream to highlight the embossing.

I used a Pumpkin bottom pearl from Wholeport to dangle from the silk ribbon bow, they are so pretty with the little jewel on the top.
