Strength and hope

This was a card I made using that beautiful set Strength and Hope, It's a card layout and design I found in blogland but I have used different colours and a whole different set, I made several of these style but this one uses just the one set {sometimes that's a challenge I set myself}. I think it came out very pretty. There are a lot of little details on this card.

Extreme Guitars

This is my latest new rubber. Its a stamp with so many possibilities. Can make boy or girl cards, I have a 10 year old and this is just great for around that age with out being cute. My boys are not even into music this way but my cards got a definite thumbs up from them - even the pink one!! The card on the left was made using the colour coach, I thought it a strange colour combo but now that I have tried it I really like it, Go the colour Coach.

Baby Punchart - before and after.

This is some punchart completely cased from the fantastic Ellen Kemper, The card to the left I have admired for a long time, just needed someone to make it for. Here I have used papers and matching card from the Sunny Garden DSP, the card co-ordinates beautifully.
And to the right I just choose to make a pink baby card this time round.

Thanks for visiting.

Autumn ATC's

On Monday a couple of friends and I got together to stamp, what a great start to the holidays eh! We decided to have a go at Artist Trading cards, think that is what they are called. A first for all of us, We picked our theme and our colours and away we went. Quite a few hours later especially for something so small!! 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches each. We each made 3 of three so we ended up with 9 different ones each. And for fun we got all the kids and adults at finishing time to judge for us one winner. We had lots of fun and plan to do this again some time.

Seeing spots

This is another of those cards made with the inlaid embossing technique. I first started with my spot wheel, then punched out different sized circles then ran it though the big shot with the spot embossing folder. The candles were stamped in white then sprinkled with glitter to make them sparkly

Black and White

This is yet another card with inlaid embossing on it just using circles and really simple black and white its a very striking card and even though its possibly quite a masculine card I still added the bling in the bottom right hand corner. I love this.

Colour Coach pays off again

This was a card I cased from blog land some where. The coloured panel is the same and i just loved the colours, then I happened to find it on my colour coach. Great colours together, but I changed the rest of the card, I thought the original had to much white. These stamps are from the hostess set Silhouette Sentiments. The stamps are small but I'm loving this set

10 Minutes or less....

I decided to try one of Sandi Maciver's 10 minutes or less cards. It took me way longer but I think I still like what I managed. I used different stamps and realised later there was another big difference but over all not bad I think. I like it.

The stars are out tonight

I was out blog hopping a few days ago, going from one blog to another as you do.... And I came across this awesome card( sorry I don't no how to do link thing ) with some great instructions. I have also just purchased my 1st pack of Love Letter DSP. This card doesn't have much stamping on it, I let the papers steal the show

This card has very cool wow factor and so many possibilities. watch this space I think I will be making a few more of these now I have my triangle template.
