Ribbon Storage

My name is Jak Heath and I am a Ribbonholic

So much so that I had to buy five new shelves at Ikea, just to house some of my ribbon reels, the shelves are picture shelves and have a little lip at the front which is perfect for stopping the reels from rolling off, they cost £8.29 and as you can see in the pictures below they are also perfect for housing Martha Stewart and EK Success border punches.

I still have loads of ribbon in boxes and I intend trying to get some empty plastic ribbon reels to get them out of the boxes and onto my shelves.

I think I could set up shop lol!

I could do with a few more blue and a few more black methinks. Honest I need them all.

If any ribbon shops have some spare empty ribbon reels that need a good home please contact me.

To be “Frank”

Be afraid…. be very afraid.

I remember watching Frankenstein on TV when I was young with a cushion over my face and my eyes like saucers peeping over the top.

Thankfully this one is kind of cute.

Frank by Just Inklined is coloured with Promarkers by Letraset 

Background papers are from  Shery K Designs

 

Some snazzy ribbon and some puffed letter stickers, and a Drippy Goo paper punch by Martha Stewart all add to the effect.

Harley Rider

Angels come in many forms and this just happens to be one Hell of an Angel.

Harley Rider by Kenny K is sure to please the man in your life.

She doesn’t come with the wings and tyre I added them but they fit together perfectly, maybe a thought for Kenny when releasing his images.

Coloured with Promarkers and Flex Markers by Letraset  and teamed with a Stampin Up speciality card and layered with black and red card, some satin ribbon and a key charm to finish.

Groovy Chic

I happened upon some digi stamps to raise some funds for a very worthy cause at Fundraising for Lyndall there are some wonderful digi’s and also prizes to be won but please remember to read Lyndall’s story written by her good friend here, They say that 1 in 3 of us will get Cancer and that everyone of us will know or have lost someone with this terrible illness, I know it has touched two of my family members and a very good friend of mine too.

Here is just one of the digi stamps that you could purchase to help.

I kept this Clean and Simple to accent the image. Please try to help if you can.

Thank You

It has been quite a while since I got inky so I thought I would set to work and get down and dirty with a little bit of distressing and some lovely new papers.

I happened upon a lovely site for backing papers called My Grafico and the papers used in this card where downloaded from there. I also used a Rubber Stamp from Stampin Up (lovely as a tree) for the pine tree.

Attention to detail came from one of my treasures the watch face from here some ribbon and a few buttons from Fantastic Ribbons (love their stuff)

Please note, if you need a question answered the only way of doing this would be to email me on the address on my side bar or leave an email address in the comment box along with your question.

The link to buy the clock face was in my previous post to this one I have now added the link in this post too.

Dream and Grandson Jack

I did a card the Dream Girl earlier and just had to make a card with Dream the boy version by Mo’s Digital pencil he’s simply gorgeous. I coloured him with Promarkers and Flex Markers by Letraset and love the result.

I used Vintage seam binding and Stampin Up designer papers and also a Nestabilities scalloped oval, the balloons are a craft punch and a bit oftwine for the balloon string.

We had Jack with us tonight he’s such a busy little chap, he helped me water the plants in the garden then took a seat to relax after working so hard, I bet you didn’t know that I had my own real life garden gnome.

Here he is sitting on his toadstool.
