Autumn Leaves

Just a quick card today as I have been working on theme project which has now got me scratching my head on how I'm going to build what I need next.

A simple card using punched out leaves and inked up to add the colour I wanted, I used the sizzix fall embossing folder on the cream card, added a few berries and a pretty ribbon and a bit of love to bring it all together.

You can see from below that the leaves started their life yellow in colour, I used dye inks and blended them onto the leave to get the colour tones I wanted.

Grans little Helper - Jack 24th October

We looked after Jack today while his Mum was at a meeting and he turned into my little helper.

1. He helped to eat the chocolate cake so that Gran wouldn't get fatter.
2. He helpedwith his spoon to smoother his dinner all over his face.
3. He helped make the dinner by playing stack them high with the tea caddy and anything else he could find.
4. He helped to brush his Grans hair with the sweeping brush.

and this was his last bit of helping...

Pop-Out Card - Challenge 34 - We Love Our Furry Friends

Challenge 34 - We Love Our Furry Friends

I had a bit of fun with this card and made it into a Pop-Out and not a Pop-Up card.

The image is Reindeer Pull by Sassy Cheryl the embossed background is a Cuttlebug Enbossing folder lots of Crushed Glass Glitter and a Stampin Up wheel stamp for the swirls.

Attention to detail...

I wanted to show you the mechanism to the pop out, it is a box but with and extra scored fold at two of the sides so it will work as a concertina, this means that it will still go into an envelope but it will pop out again when removed.

Floral Friend Card

Oh yay! It's Friday and the weekend begins.

I used 2 stamp sets by Papertrey Ink for this card, "Silent Night and Friends Till the End" teamed with Promarker colouring, pearls, ribbon and score lines made using the Scor-Pal and a bit of love to bring it all together. Not a bit of designer paper in sight this time.

Attention to detail...

Adding a few basic score lines onto your card can make it look classic a more expensive card stock, it's amazing what it does.
