Flippin men card

Good morning all,well i am getting into the swing of this holiday lark but my sleep patterns have gone awry!. Made this card last night and it took forever for some reason,couldnt make up my mind what colours,then the layout and because it is also a challenge card had to get some stripes in somewhere and that had me stumped,but at last its finished and i hope he likes it. Stamped image two times,coloured with promarkers and then decoupaged and also added glossy accents to his glass.



made the strips by laying thin strips of card across and trimming at the edge.

These stamps have got to be one of my best bargains ever and i got them from here
well off to get some breakfast and have a look around,see you later,x

UPDATE - i have changed my background again.....lol.the other one was a bit too busy for me,x

Crafting with angiebabe





have had a fab time crafting with angiebabe aka angie who i have met through docrafts.This scrapbook cover was made using acrylics,stamps and h20's and also loo roll!!!!.Made the arch by moulding wet toilet paper over the stamp and then drying with heat gun,added acrylics for colour.

Made this card using tutorial over here but not keen on water effect so covered up but pleased with finished card in the end

this image was made using embossing powders to paint and you can find the tutorial here and i will be using it on a card.

had a great day and made hardly any mess this time....lol

Sneaky peek!


well thought i would show you my gorjuss girl tag which i have made for a challenge i will be hosting over at docrafts from friday,you can find the challenge section here,so if you wish to join in would love to see you.
My challenge is to make any size tag and decorate how you wish but to include a gorjuss girl on it.i have made my tag,rounded the corners,coloured with distress inks and used a tim holtz embossing folder(love it).colured my gg with distress inks and promarkers.

then added glimmer mists to a tim holtz ticket,added gems and ribbons etc,enjoyed making this one and having a play,x

Now dont all faint......lol


well have actually made a card!!! this is for a docraft challenge which involved paper piecing,mine was a simple card as that is all my brain will run to at the moment.used the craft stamper free flower stamp on the freebie papers from cardmaking and papercraft this month,cut out and curled and then used scalloped square punch,added a greeting and some pearls.

Also finished a scrapbook for my sister in law who has turned 40 and visiting from canade from friday.been hunting through the loft for photos and used up lots of embellishments but really enjoyed it.think the cover is a bit plain but she doesnt like lots of bits so she will be in for a shock when she opens it....lol
