On your Special day... bubbles and lace 7x5in card. Hi Craft addicts! Well it is Tessellating Tuesday so I have made this card using dies from Tattered Lace and Creative Expressions.... How I made this card:- I must admit that I had used the Bubbles/Balloons die before (it is from Lisa Horton's Broken Tiles Collection by Creative Expressions and is called Circular Dreams.. I cut them out a couple of times in black pearlescent linen effect card using both of them at the same time (taping them together to make sure they didn't cross over). I then stuck them both to some white card using PVA glue and coloured a few of the spaces in using a blue alcohol marker. You can keep the waste for other projects if you like... I used PVA glue to attach them in opposite corners of a 7" x 5" black pearlescent card leaving a space in between them. I took a scrap piece of paper (about 3.5" x 2.5" and coloured it in using Cosmic Shimmer's Opal Polishes (Par...

Boo! Halloween card with witches hat and sentiment designed in Brother Scan n Cut... Hi Craft addicts! So today's Halloween themed card is one that I have made using some designs I created and cut out using my Brother Scan n Cut... How I made the card... I first of all went into CANVAS (the web app that Brother scan n Cut operates) and designed both the Boo. and Witches Hat toppers - (if you want to know how I did it just get in touch - I am also working out how to create these as files so I can add them to my website! Once I was happy with them, I cut them out in both Black (Lynda Chapman's from Creative Crafting World) and Orange (from American Crafts) - I had made the hat slightly smaller so I knew that there would be a small border) and glued them both together. I then cut out the black rectangle using the largest of the Tattered Lace pin dot dies and the gold one (I think it is a Spellbinders die) in Mirri card. I stuck them both together and g...

Home Sweet Home - Magic Fairy toadstool shaped card Hi Craft addicts! It's been a few days since I have been on here - apologies for that but aim to rectify that! This card is a fun "New Home" card that I have made using mainly Hunkydory products from their shaped cards to their "For the love of stamps collection. How I made this card:- I used a pre-cut deckle edged off white square panel (from Craft Creations) and stamped the circle (from Rare Earth) in "Onyx Black" Versafine ink. I then stamped the "toadstool house" in the circle (again using Versafine) and then coloured it in using Zig Clean Color pens in red, orange, brown and yellow. Using Altenew inks (green shades) I then added the grass and leaves and shaded them using a waterbrush. I also added the flowers in each corner using "Broken China" (blue) Tim Holtz Distress inks and the "Dragonflies" in the Versafine black ink. I then attached the panel onto ...

Blank star or snowflake C5 easel card -  day 313 of my 366 day challeng e Hi Craft addicts! Today's C5 easel card has been made using a couple of Creative Expressions (Sue Wilson) dies along with a Tattered Lace die. How I made this card:- I took a C5 card and turned it on its' side and folded the front flap in on itself to make an easel card. I cut out the "snowflake" in white card using the largest of the dies from the Sue Wilson Christmas 2015 collection. I then cut out the "Stained Glass" circle (again from Creative Expressions), this time in red card. For the panel itself, this is cut out from black card using a Tattered Lace "Pin dot square" die. I then stuck the red circle on to it using Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue and then added the "snowflake" on to it only gluing the centre part of it. I then added the whole panel on to the middle of the card, making sure that it is only glued on the bottom half of it. I then c...

Celebrate! Fairy on fancy background small card -  Day 283 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Fairies once again feature in this card for today's challenge - this time using a Spellbnders die on top of a Tattered Lace one. I think this would make a lovely theme for a boxed set of cards that would make a great gift. How to make this card:- I must admit this is a very simple card to make..so I first of all decided that i would use an 88x114mm card - this one is a pre-cut/scored card out of Centura Pearl which I got from Craft Creations - but you could easily make your own card if you wanted to. I cut out the "Fairy" in black shiny paper using the "Cali"Shapeabilities die from Spellbinders. I then cut out the oval panel out of white cardstock using the Tattered Lace "Pearl Pin dot Oval" die (the middle size one) I used some Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue and attached it to the centre of the card and then placed some glue on just ...
