Razzle Dazzle

Hi y'all!

It's my friends 30th this week and we're going out for a meal to celebrate. We already chipped together and got her a pressie but I wanted to make her a card just from me.

Now, she's the kinda gal that likes a bit of sparkle and shine. Dressing up to wow from top to toe so I wanted to create a bit of razzle dazzle in the card, but not too much.



A sparkly '30' cut from silver glimmer paper and the Alphabet dies, a few rhinestones and some champagne mist is more than enough dazzle.

I love my Scraps

hi all,
It's been a while since my last post, sometimes life gets in the way of crafting! The Summer holidays don't help, if I do get the urge, I'm taken over by my kids using my bits. Sorry but I am a bit selfish with my stash, they have their bits and I have mine. Although, as they get older they are a bit more respectful and careful with my stamps and punches.



Well, this morning I woke up early, for no reason. The kids were watching Transformers and I saw a window so I grabbed it! I got out my scraps boxes and set to work.


Yes, I have a problem with throwing away anything!


 These are two cards that I came up with this morning, 


The flower was made by punching several layers of packing tissue paper ( we just bought a new wardrobe and there was oodles of this brown tissue paper that I couldn't throw!), stapled in the middle and each layer scrunched up.


I stamped and punched the butterflies from some cardstock that I had been practicing my brayering on. They didn't quite work out but look great for this purpose.

Celebrate with The Best of Flowers

Hello everybody, hope this weather isn't dampening your mood! 

Today I made a simple vintage card and matching tag using The Best of Flowers and Perfectly Penned stamp sets. 





It's always nice to whip up a matching tag, especially while you have the bits out from making the card.
