Wonderful Mother + Liebster Award

Hello Everyone,

Here is a card I made this evening from some of the leftover scraps from this weekends class, and what I had out on my table.



I've used the Secret Garden Bundle and a Retired set of stamps called Well Scripted.  We actually made an Oval Easter Easel card in class, with the Easter Greeting in that set and were using the Oval Framelits dies.  One lady, folded the wrong oval, so I gave her a new one, and I've used it on this card (Pool Party).  Once I'd run it through the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, you couldn't tell it had fold creases across the centre and the piece was salvaged.  The base of the card is Island Indigo and I've added some of the SAB dsp trimmed with some Rich Razzleberry Card.

I would like to thank Vicki, for spreading the love my way.  She has nominated my blog for this Liebster award.  This is my second Award in a week, however in the spirit that this award was intended

 
I have found another 5 blogs to "spread the love".  Here are some blogs that I like to check out regularly by some very talented ladies, in no particular order.  You may like to follow them, or leave them some comments.  I know it will make their day.  It always does mine, when positive comments are left for me.

      Thanks Vicki, not sure if I did it correctly, but just used two pieces of ribbon tied at once with the "bunny ears" method.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch.

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge as I d

JAI176 - Just Add Blokes & CCMC 2nd Entry

Hi Everyone, I thought this weeks Just Add Ink challenge - "Just Add Blokes" was a great opportunity to get in and make a Male card .  For those of you outside Australia, "Blokes" is another name for Men. Today I'm using Mosaic Madness bundle set teamed with a greeting from Loving Thoughts stamp set.  I don't understand why, but the simplest cards seem to take me the longest.  I agonise over them, and yet I can make something much more involved quicker, when I have a clear vision in mind. I've taken the colours for this card from the colour challenge this week for Create with Connie and Mary so this card is doing double duty for both challenges. Here we are The cardstock is Berrmuda Bay, Basic Black, Whisper White and Smoky Slate per the colour challenge.  Here is a closer look at the Mosaics.  The Bermunda bay one is raised on dimentionals. This picture below gives you a closer look at the greeting. Thanks so much for stop
