Hi Everybody, i know its a bit belated but i would like to wish you all a Happy New Year!
I'm sorry i've not posted for months but things happen in life that knock the stuffing out of us sometimes. My mother died last June and so i'm sure you will appreciate it has taken me a while to get myself back into thinking about making cards as i lost all interest. I have made the odd one for family occasions which i'm going to show you ...... now that i've got myself back into blogging!
The first one i made for my niece who went to work the summer season at "Camp America! it was a fantastic experience for her!
I have a friend that holds a weekly craft session so i decided to join them last week after missing quite a few weeks, i really enjoyed it ...it was just what i needed to find my mojo...lol !
Thanks for looking ...... and hope to have some new cards to show you soon!

Lili of the Valley Rosie Posy
Hi everybody, i hope you're all well!
I made this card for a dear friend of mine for her birthday. I used a 6x6 card and mounted the image onto a Sizzix die cut topper. I used Promarkers to colour the image which was stamped using the "Rosie Posy" rubber stamp from "Lili of the Valley", (i think my colouring is improving slowly but still need lots more pactice!) the message was computer generated + a ribbon and some flower gems and also a few flowers from "Wild Orchid Crafts"

Card with a difference!
I was asked to make this card by my friend for her daughter-in-law who likes Skulls, i think she was a Goth in her younger days. I have been informed that it went down really well and the recipient was over the moon with it!
The card was 6x6 and another piece of card mounted an inch from the edge that had been embossed and another piece of black card with the image on 2inch in from that, you cant really see from the pic but there are three seperate layers. I added some red gems top and bottom, the tag was computer generated and cut using a Memory Box "Chadwick Label" die.
Thanks for looking.

Clipart Fairy card
Hi Everybody, i have at last got a card to show you all. I made this one for a friend's birthday, the download came from the Clipart Fairy collection. I love these easil cards and they are so easy to put together with a little bit of my own input added, the edges and words are glittered but its hard to see in the pic and the window has acetait on it.
Thanks for looking.

Tilda
I have had this stamp of Tilda for ages so decided to have a play and enter the Tilda Town challenge blog competition with this card, the image is coloured with promarkers and i used Sakura pen on the centre body, wings a touch here and there. The flower is from "Fred She Said" .
Thanks for looking and wish me luck :-)
