Kanban cute Christmas Bear stamp


Hi all what a miserable Sunday it is today pouring down with rain here. Marc and Chloe getting up to mischief but I have managed to create a little crafting area all for me where I can now hide away (not sure how long for but hopefully a least a couple of hours a day).


Well today at my new crafting area which is upstairs away from all the distraction I have managed to make this simple card using Kanban stamp coloured in using pro-markers and glitter snow on hat. The background papers I had in my stash. Then finished with a bit ribbon down side, a couple of foam stars and a few gems. The card is approximately 6 by 6.


pro-markers used
Tan
Pastel pink
Berry red

Lili of the Valley baby card - boy


Hi all managed to make a quick card today I have been stamping lots of images and practising colouring them in constantly trying to get a better technique with the pro-markers I think I am getting there but still need to get more practise and more colours. The card is 6 x 6, background card I had in my stash (A friend had a big craft clear out a couple of years ago and I bought a lot of her and the papers are from a create and craft butterfly and fairies - pack which is when the cards are mainly done for you but you just havent a clue what to do when you get it home so I have taken to cutting them up are backing cards and papers.) The image is LOTV baby stamp which I have coloured in with pro-markers and finished with glitter on his blanket(size of topper is 7 x 10. I then finished with ribbon and a flower with a gem in the centre. I have also used some silver ink round the outer edge of the nestie scallopped die cut and finished with the words "Its a Boy" and just a couple of gems.

I am starting to list a few of my cards on ebay along with some die cuts.

pro-markers used:
pastel blue
powder blue
almond
blush
dusty pink

I am hoping to make another card tomorrow - fingers crossed but I am definitely going to allow myself to have a crafting day with Marc and Chloe on Saturday.

This is the 2nd Card of today


I love Forever Friends and I love this stamp I got last year. It is one of the first Forever Friends I got. I love cute animals and bear images ...


That is why this second card is just a plain Valentine's card using this Forever Friends Stamp, coloured in using pro-markers and finished with a few heart gems down the top left side. I have used giltter round the outer rim of the scalloped nesite die and on the flower.


I always colours my Forever Friends stamp with vanilla.
Well going to do more wii fit tonight and keep losing those pounds ( I hope) ...

I managed to get another 2 cards done today


Well hello again I managed to get another 2 cards made today and a few toppers ready to make just a couple more next week.


The first is just a simple Happy Mother's Day card using my scalloped nestie dies and old papers I had stacked away. With the sun shining here are all day and I am getting ready for the spring I wanted to start and try and use some spring/summer colours again. I finished off using paper roses and a butterfly.

LOTV Christmas Card


Hi well I have been a bit quiet this week in my card making hoping to try and get a couple made this afternoon. I am keeping up with my excerises with the wii fit plus and if I keep on going the way I am I be very pleased.

I have recently found the LOTV website and I am so in love with their stamps after getting that gorgeous baby stamp I also got this gorgeous teddy with cracker stamp.

This card is 6 by 6 - coloured image in using pro-markers

Teddy I used tan, and cinamon and went gently over with the blender
His hat and for Cracker I used Berry Red and finished the stars in Gold.

I used snow glitter for the white on hat and finished with a few gems and glitter.
