Sliding Sk8teboarder

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you've had a good weekend.

Just popping in with a birthday card I made with a slider element. 

I Gave You My Heart

Hello lovely peeps, i hope you are well

Just popping in to share a card I made with one of the Gorjuss Girl stamps - she's from the set called 'I Gave You My Heart'. I love these images, they're timeless.

She's coloured in with Promarkers and I cut her out with a cut-off oval die (I can't find the packaging and have had the dies for donkeys years so can't remember the brand). I rummaged through my bags of paper scraps for papers to go with her and cut them into fishtails.

New Home

Hello lovely peeps

Our nephew moved into his first flat last week so I made a new home card for him using this fab Cityscape digi from Oddball Art.

Chilling

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

Phew, it's been scorching here for the last week. Like these little 'Penguins in Paradise' (MFT) I normally love being out in the sunshine but it's been too hot for me this time.

 

Thankfully the heat wave has passed and it's lovely and cool here today. 

This is the card I gave to my neighbour for her birthday yesterday.

Chicken Dance

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.
 

A variation on my 'Ham It Up' card from a few days ago, this time using the Chicken Dance stamps from Aall & Create. Aren't they fabulous? They're my current favourite stamp set :D 

As these images are taller than the little pigs I put the Peek a Boo windows vertically on my card.

Ham it Up

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

Now we are in lockdown again I'm spending more time in my craft room. I wanted to make a snippets card for Pixie's Snippets Playground - Di is giving away some amazing prizes in her annual giveaway.

Otterly Cute

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.
 

I only have 2 Lawn Fawn stamp sets (😢) so it's not often that I'm able to follow the theme of their challenge. This time it is a sketch though - yippee! - so I've had a go.  

The sentiment in the 'Otterly Great' stamp set is over two lines, so to get it to match the sketch I had to do a bit of masking to get it all along one line - I ended up using my stamping platform after a couple of failed attempts to do it freehand.

Monster Reveal

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

Just popping in to share the card I made for hubby's 50th. When  you open it the grumpy monster disappears to reveal smiley ones :D

I would have liked to finish the inside properly but I spent so much time working on his BB8 cake that I didn't have enough time left for the card.

Ingredients:

Monster Hugs stamp set from Aall & Create
