Busy Busy Busy

Well I am about but just getting some orders to make some cards - whooo hooo -- I have been asked to make a couple packs of my Christmas Cards with the baubles - I have to get on with making them - but I have also been asked to make Holy Communion card. I am not a religious person so I hope the choices I have made would be okay.

I decided to make two then she can decide which she like best. I choose the bookatrix style - one contempory and the other more elaborate as I am not sure how well she knows the girl who is having her first Holy Communion.



As you can see from the picture this is the contempory bookatrix card - followed instructions on how to make the bookatrix from http://harlequinscards.co.uk/instructions.aspx. The cross die cut and scalloped oval I bought from e-bay but they are sizzix brand - I have look at for these for future cards. And my wording I printed out myself from Microsoft word - so much eaiser then trying to use peel -offs and having the right amount of letters and size.




This above Bookatrix is the second - same process as before but I used a decoupage image instead of a cross.

I like to thank you for taking the time for looking and any comments you care to leave are most welcome.

Forever Friends Blog Challenge Flowers or Nature

Well starting to get back into a little routine and have had a chance to make a few cards. I thought I have a go at entering into some of the challenges from other blogs to give me some inspiration and also get my back into the swing of making cards. This is the first one for Forever Friends Challenge hope okay.

First time using promarkers

Well Marc has gone back to school today has a bit of a cough still other than that back to some routine. I managed to get a couple of cards made last night and thought I show you today. I have made two simple cards trying out my promarkers.

The first I have used patchworks pals stamp (on loan from my sister) which also has the extra little stamps for you to colour separate to make the 2d effect.




The second is Daisy and Dandelion stamp I bought a while ago. I love these images and I used the instep design again.




I like to thank you all for taking your time to look your comments are most welcome

Hopefully things start getting back to normal

I was hoping to be on track and able to do a card a day challenge set on Docrafts but last week Marc (my little boy) was not at all well he seems alot better today so he be back to school tomorrow. Then it was his 5th birthday yesterday (3rd May). Therefore I was unable to sit and make many cards at all. I am hoping to try and finish a couple I have started by tomorrow and then have a good play with the promarkers I recently purchased. Fingers crossed. I also want to try and get involved in a few more challengers.
