All my Birthday Cards

Hi there,

It was my birthday on Tuesday and I have been so blessed with 31 handmade cards sent to me by my fellow demo's on ESAD and also my friends and customers. I had a photo of them all together but that didnt show them as well as I would like so I have just photographed them all separately and here they are. I love them all.

Lovely Heart Card

hi again,

today I have a card that I cased from another SU demo in the US. I really love it. I changed it a little but why change something you love, hey.

Unfortunatley Sylvia does not want anyone to CASE (copy and share everything) her cards and has asked me to take it down. I will do this as I dont like to upset anyone.

Thank you for all your comments and support.

 I have made this for an engagement card. I love this rose from You are Loved.

Triple Flower Punch

I found this card and thought I would case it as I haven't used my Triple Flower Punch. I changed the ribbon as I didn't have the grosgrain and added a brad. Its is a simple but effective card.

I'll be back soon with more Cased cards. Im enjoying making my favourite cards instead of just looking at them.

Happy Valentine's Day

Good morning,

Today I woke up early to give my wonderful husband a Valentine's card (before he left for work) and also a wallet. He is hard on his wallets so needs a new one every year so I thought I would give him one for when his current one falls apart.
Anyway this is the card I made for him and also taught at Stamp Club on the weekend. The inside I made a pop out heart using the same stamp as the front. The set I used is You are Loved

I also made a version with Congratulations on so I can use it as an Engagement card as I have 3 family members recently engaged.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

I've done some casing....

Hello there,

After a good week of posting I have had a week of nothing. I have been making some cards though. I have found Pinterest and love to see what gets pinned there and I have been attempting to actually make some of the lovely creations I find.

Today I have a really lovely Lilly card that I cased this week. The stamp set is Fifth Avenue Floral. I found it on SCS here. 

Mine is a little darker but I need some practise with the sponging. Isn't it a lovely card.

I hope you have a good week and I will try to get back here to show a few more cards.

Brayer Lesson by Tracey

Boy I am on a roll this week. Another post ..... 

I wanted to show you this lovely card that Tracey demonstrated at camp. I loved the one she had Cased from Michelle Zindorf so asked her to do a demo for us. I will show you both the case from Michelle and then the card Tracey redesigned from the original. I love both.

I do love the brayered cards and plan to make more.

Mini Album

hi again,

While on camp I showed the ladies how to make this mini album that is made from one sheet of 12 x 12. I made my first one and filled it with photos of my dog Skye.... who else. Well really it was because they were the only photos I had here printed and small enough for the album. I used a tutorial by Mickey Roberts for her pocket Album.

I also made another one using Butterflies.

These are easy to make and a good way to have photos on hand to show your friends and family.
