mY NEPHEWS BIRTHDAY

My lovely nephew will be 1 in Feb so got cracking with his card today while i was in the mood

Another schoolfriends birthday

Its a really damp and dreary day in Derby so good excuse to stay indoors and craft.
Lucy has been invited to another party but a boy this time so time for a boys card. Much prefer doing cards for girls, but have lots of boys papers to use up and am trying to not buy anything at the moment. (Although I did find a lovely craft shop called Crafty Ways and left £30 lighter!!!)

wish i had added more colour to his shirt, got ideas for when i do this one again.#

My hubbys valentine

Life is pretty stressful at the minute so shut myself away today in my peaceful house and crafted.
The image is a digidownload coloured with promarkers and added on some stickles red glue and some glossy accents. Used my cuttlebug for the letters.

Engagement card

Also did this one for a friens who got engaged over Christmas, not to sure??

Congratulations, you're pregnant

Hi, had great fun making cards this weekend. Got 2 friends who are pregnant, so downloaded this digi image from Pink Petticoat to use and matched it up with pink and blues. Had some free papers to use from a magazine which i think really worked. What do you think?
Back to work tomorrow but hubby on nights so when i am off Tuesday i have to be quiet, so no housework for me- : )

Happy Retirement

Have also done this card tonight for my Uncle in America who is selling his business and retiring to live by the lake near Dallas. Heaven!!!
Would love to hear your comments??
Thanks Di.

Its a boy!

Hi, been playing tonight as actually had a couple of hours spare.

What do you think?

Card is for a work colleague who is going to be a Grandma soon.

Loved using my Promarkers on a digidownload .

Happy New Year

I've got a blog-exciting!! Not really sure what i'm doing but am sure will get the hang of it
.

I love cardmaking, but like most people struggle to find the time to do it as much as i would like.

Had my first go at making a stepper card today, my first card in 2011.Bit fiddly but think i did OK.
Made it for a colleague at work, hope they like it!
Will post some more over the next few days.
