Another Craft Site

I have for you some information about a great craft site with loads of inspiration and free gifts.

I have known Jak Heath for a number of years through the Imagination Craft Site and a lovely lady she is too.

Please pop over to have a look at some of the work she does. You won't be sorry you did.

New Blog - Nena's Crafts

Anyway just to let you know that a new blog has been opened by my good friend Nena, this is her address.

As it is so new she hasn't posted much but please keep popping back as you won't be disappointed in her very creative cards, they put mine to shame lol

Easel Card

I had to make a card for a really good friend. As she is a May baby, same as me, I knew her favourite colour was Green, so that was the colour scheme I chose.


I decided to use one of my latest cut and emboss folders from Marianne Designs Designables Frame - DS0908, simply devine lol.  I also used the Dotty folder from Cuttlebug, a really versatile folder.

I then chose a Tilda image and coloured it it with promarkers. In green of course lol

Next came the style of card, oh decisions, decisions but I settled on an easel card.





I also used another of the Marianne Designable Dies as you can see, the lovely labels, and then on the bottom of the card I used one of the EK Success punches, some pearls and ribbon, and some roses from Wild Orchid Crafts .

Well that's it for now. She loved the card and I loved making it.
More soon. Bye for now : )

Welcome

Well hello everyone, nice to see you here. Now what can I tell you about myself, oh yes I craft, that's always good for an opener. Hmm what sort of craft I hear you ask, well the answer is simple, it's card crafting, oh and I dabble with a craft robo as well which helps with the cutting out. I also like to craft with my computer as well especially making decoupage and background papers using PaintShop Pro, that is very handy indeed because you can't always find a background paper you like in the craft shops.

Have to say though that my local craft shop, which is called Graces Craft Shop, has a very good stock of craft items and I go there most days and sit and craft with Grace. It gives her company as well as me, so we sit and craft and have a good laugh, especially if Jean, Joan or Christine call in as well to pass the time of day.

Well I suppose I had better get on and get some more Christmas cards done, or at least the inserts for the ones that I managed to get done today. I really surpassed myself today as I made 14 cards while I was at the shop.


Catch you later : )
Better get on as I've a busy day tomorrow. More cards to make, then shopping, baking etc.......
