Winter Door with Wreath

I coloured this digi Stamp (Door with Wreath) by Mo Manning with Promarkers the wreath is part of the drawing but I think you'll agree that it looks 3d it literally pops.
The base card was embossed with the snow fall embossing folder, I used a Martha Stewart border punch on the dotted paper. The image was die cut using the Quickutz cookie cutters some red seed beads a blue satin ribbon and a die cut snowflake, to finish a sprinkle of crushed glass glitter.


Attention to detail...



On this close up shot you can see the crushed glass glitter and the seed beads that I added for berries I dotted a little glue about the image and again added the crushed glass glitter to mock falling snow.

Baby Sitting Jack - 12 weeks old

We had the privilege of having Jack overnight last week, Mum & Dad went out for a meal which meant that Grandad and myself had the chance to get lots of cuddles with this little lad.
I did the during the night shift and Grandad did the early morning shift leaving me in bed for a little while longer.
Grandad and Jack have lots of conversations and this one amused Jack greatly as he went from this........

to this.....
The chat obviously tickled Jack, check out that curly nose ha,ha,ha.

Noelle Bearing Gifts

The card is A5 size but in a tent fold the pretty papers are by Graphic 45 they have some wonderful 12x12 papers well worth checking out. I used the digi stamp Noelle Bearing Gifts by Mo Manning and coloured the image with promarkers the Nestabilities shapes and ribbon tag are both by spellbinders. all layered up and tied together with old gold satin ribbon.


Attention to Detail...

I used a little snowflake punch to punch out the border from glittered gold card, actually the glitter card was from last years Christmas crackers I new it was saved for something.

Spooky - Halloween

My lovely talented friend Claire from Waltzing Mouse Stamps contacted me and asked me to pick a stamp set of my choice, this was so difficult as all of her stamps are a must have, but, I soon fell in love with this creepy set, I know my Grandson Jack is not yet walking but time goes by so quickly & I feel that he will be needing to be trick or treating in the very near future.
So here it is my very first Halloween card ever!
All stamps are from Waltzing Mouse Stamps the words are die cut using the Cuttlebug and the googly eyes were bought from a haberdashery
"Claire.... I hope it tickles".

A great teenager Goth Girl image from Mo Manning, coloured with Promarkers.

The cream base card was embossed with one of the Cuttlebug wrought Iron folders then sponged with purple ink.




Attention to Detail...


The purple card was embossed using the Cuttlebug Textile Texture A2 folder, I used the Stampin Up Spiral Punch to make it look as if it was torn from a note book, I wove the purple sheer ribbon through some of the slots.
