Just a Note...

Hey Folks!

Time to show you what our Host Angie

chose for Colour Week at Just Us Girls

and aren't they gorgeous!

Colour Challenges are one of my

All Time Favourites! 

I decided it was time to get out one of my favourite

oldie but goodie SU stamp/die sets for this one.

It's Four Feathers.

Made a fun background for them by just

scrunching up my Kraft paper and 

then inked with Tim's Frayed Burlap

on the creases then tore around the edges.

My feathers were inked with

Memento Rhubarb Stalk

Tim's Peacock Feathers and

Hero Arts Unicorn - cut and popped.

I forgot I hadn't added the jute string when I

added glue all over the kraft paper

so quickly did that - sticky fingers and all!

Added a jute bow and 3 tiny punched circles

beside my Gina K sentiment.

Pop over to Our Blog to check out what

February Guest Tenia and the Team created.

Hope you get time to join us this week. 

See you in the Gallery?

Corking it for the CAS Mix Up Challenge.

Hey there I'm Back!

I have just spent the most amazing few weeks of

 fun filled craft time with my bff

creating and trying out new things.

This was the first card I made and is for the

February CAS Mix Up Challenge at the CAS Mix Up Blog

I just had to wait till I got home 

so I could add to my Blog. 

I knew as soon as I saw the Mix I knew I wanted to use cork.

My friend has an EBosser so the cork die just cut out beautifully.

I think I will add this to my Wishlist for the future as I loved using it.

It is from Tim Holtz Wildflowers.

This was such a cas quick card to make.

All I needed was the cream card stock

my cork wild flower, an inked up sentiment

using distress inks and distressing/inking the edges.

My Mix is - Cork, Die Cut, Distressing and Stamping.

You will find that some of my postings 

will be a little light on with products

I used while I was away as there was so much going on

I didn't get time to write it all down.

Too busy playing! 

Hope you like what I made. Love to read your thoughts!

Thanks for dropping by.

Still in the Mood for Love

Morning Craft Ones. Seems I'm still in the mood for a

'Bit More Love'  so created a lovie dovie card

you could give to anyone!

I did a bit of white texture pasting on my stenciled background
from the ARTplorations Rows-of-Hearts.
Cut this with the
CUTplorations Double-Running-Stitch-Rectangle-Nesting-Dies
I then inked and fussy cut  my popped jar from
STAMPlorations Vignette Eclectic Florals
filling it to overflowing with heart shapes.
The CUTplorations Love-Word-Die was cut with
red foil (as was some of the hearts and the Cuttlebug U)
And there you have it!

A Simple Thank You

Today's post is all about Clean & Simple for

Addicted to Stamps and More

I love it when a card comes together easily as this did.

Basic white card stock to begin. That gorgeous

background is embossed with a Darice Folder

called Henna and popped. 

I die cut my flower several times

and backed it with a Marianne Die.

Thank You sentiment is from SU.

Finished with a few pearls.

Pop over and see what my Team Mates have created
