Pretty as a Princess

I got this image from Amy Ashers, it is designed by Card Buddy's. Its actually a plate design card but I decided to make it as a square card.

This is the first decoupage card I have made in a while but it was great fun doing it again. Not sure who is going to get this ............... we have a male family members birthday today but I cant really give him this !!! hehe !!! ah well a bought one for him today I am afraid !

Flowers and heart pins as usual from Wild Orchid Crafts, butterflies from The Range, greeting stamp from Lotv !!!

So nice to finally get a card made again !!!

Christmas Card Club Card - Sylvies Challenge

Hi there all !!! sorry for my late posting I have been out visiting family !

I coloured Tilda using my promarkers in pink as the challenge is pink, white and a colour of my choice !!! As the tree has to be green my colour was chosen for me by the design I used !!! I did put this together rather quickly ............. in fact nothing is stuck down !!!! hehe !!! I know .......... but I have been absent blogging the last two weeks as I have been trying so hard to keep awake and failing !!! I think the sleep fairy is sprinkling me with sleepy dust !!!

Go check out the other ladies fabby cards, you can find them on the sidebar !!!

Happy crafting everyone !

Wedding Card !!!

Oh, Ok ............... seems as though wedding fever is reaching everywhere !!!! So Igave in and agreed Caitlyn can watch it on tv so I guess its in my mind which is why when I sat down to make a friendship card I came up with this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mmm !!!! Maybe I will do that tomorrow ........... on Grandma duty Fri and Sat so not much chance then !!! Bless her !



I got out my grand calibur and cut the fancy shaped card, the paper is wrapping paper from Tesco !! Dont know anyone getting married myself yet but I guess I can co-ordinate wrapping paper for a gift with the card when I do !!! Trusty flowers all glittered up and some pearls I got at such a bargain price from NEC !! 6 packs for a tenner !! 100 in a pack !!! BARGAIN !!
