Here is my card, I got side tracked today from what I was supposed to be doing and made this Baby card !!! I used my Grand Calibur and dies to make the card, papers by Nitwits. I am so looking forward to the rest of my craft things being shipped home from the USA as I have stacks of papers I can't use at the moment !!! Argghhhhhh, oh well soon I hope !!! Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, the punch is new one I got at the NEC on Thursday, Martha Stewart !!

I really loved making this ! My cousin is expecting so maybe she will have a boy .................... !!!! hehe !!! Have a great Saturday !!

Magnolia hearts

Well ............ I know its not Valentines BUT !!! I got the papers for this at the NEC yesterday and just wanted to use them with this Magnolia stamp !!!! The papers are Forever Friends and I glittered up the hearts using stickles.

I got the cricut out and working hard today, the hearts are from Lirical Letters as is the wording. again I was trying hard to stay away from using flowers !!! Not sure about this card tho, I might have another go using flowers and swirls !!! hehe

Well Birmingham was a blast !! Lots of great things there, not that I actually got what I wanted I ummed and ahhhed to long !!! ah well ebay here I come !!! hehe !!! Happy Crafting !!!

Friendship card

Well I made this with some of my new goodies from Harrogate !!! I was trying to make a card without flowers on ............. its just so easy to use them as they are so gorgeous !

The image is from Lili of the Valley which I glittered up, the tags are cut using Sentimentals cricut cartridge and the message is Lili of the Valleys new Friendship recipe stamp !!! Loving it !!! I also used a Marianne Die behind the image and a Martha Stewart punch for the border !!! Papers are from Nitwits, I was so thrilled it matches the colour of the girl image so well !!

A bit of bling and it will be in the post for my friend !

Well all ready for tomorrow and Birmingham !!! Whoop Whoop !!! No doubt we will all shop till we drop !!! hehe !!!! Have great fun !!!

Amazing !

Wow ......... well I think I am recovered now from Saturday and the Harrogate show !!! What a great day it was and what fabby things they had for us all to buy !!!! I am gearing up now for Thursday and Birmingham !!! hehe

Well I loved the Forever Friends card so much I made another one similar but using the Lili of the Valley printed cute square. I glittered her up and added the flowers (Wild Raspberry from K&Co......... hope I can get more thursday .....) and butterflies.

Hopefully I will get to play with my new toys today or tomorrow !!! I am looking after my gran today so it will be tomorrow I guess !!! Hope you all had a great time at Harrogate !!!

Happy shopping Thursday !!!

Lili of the Valley Challenge

Here there !!! Well here is my card for the Lili of the Valley Challenge. The challenge was to follow the sketch by Bev as you can see below. Check out her website its great !!!

Anyway ........... my card was created by using the fairy stamp from Lili of the Valley, ticket stamp from Whimsy stamps, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts (have you seen their daffodils !!!! Cant wait to get hold of some !!), the lace I bought in Walmart and the paper is wrapping paper I got from the Post Office !!! Sadly they only had one sheet ............

Forever Friends Monthly Challenge

First of all I would like to say hello to those of you who have just joined me !!! Thank you for popping in to see my creations. I love blog hopping and seeing what great work we all do !!

This months challenge over at the Forever Friends Challenge blog is NO DESIGN PAPERS !!! What a fantastic challenge !! I hadn't realised until I saw this just how much I have come to rely on patterened papers !! So .............. I chose a design off my Forever Friends CD and printed it off. I used a Martha Stewart punch across the middle and got out my glitzy butterflies I found at The Range. The flowers are from K&Company called Wild Raspberry. The Sentiment I also found at The Range by Anita's; 6 in a pack for 25p !!!! BARGAIN !!!

I just love the clean look and no papers really allow the glitz of the butterflies and flowers to pop !! Hope you like it too, this may just end up as my Grandmas Mothers Day card !

Flower girl card

Well I have just spent the last hour looking for the make of this stamp and I cant find it !!!!!!! So anyone know please tell me !!!! I think its either a Sugar Nellie or Stampavie but ............. Any way I started to make it for my daughters 10th birthday but couldnt find blue card that I liked until yesterday............ typically a week late for her birthday !!!!

I used papers from Nitwits (heavenly), flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, a Martha Stewart punch for the leaves and promarkers for the colouring !!! I glittered up the ribbon and flowers and her top, the picture doesnt do it justice I am afraid tho. I just love how it turned out maybe I will keep it for her birthday next year and be ahead of myself !!!

Mmm who am I kidding !!! hehe !!!

Have a great day crafting !!!
