A quick post

I'm not really a snip and stick card maker but before xmas our cook at work had a special request. When she left school at 16 she worked in a bakery and the manager of the bakery turned 100 years old. She asked if I could make a with cakes on. It took me a while to find the sheet on the net. She sent it through the post. A friend of hers went to see him on the day of his birthday. He was showing her the cards he'd recieved. He told her to pick up the one on the mantle piece, she picked up the Queens and he told her,'Everyone gets them, I mean the one next to it.' MINE.
This is the reason I love making cards.

A little bit of xmas a little bit late

I can't believe that xmas has been and gone so quickly. I was a little poorly at xmas and at the time it seemed a little fuzzy. So here are a few bits and bobs I should have posted a while ago.
The putting up of the xmas tree, we bought a narrow tree a few years ago. It used to be like National Lampoons Xmas Vacation. lol


Xmas day at ours.
Amy and Jess having a whale of a time.



I spotted the little xmas trees in a large store and they are my take on them at a fraction of the cost. Surprising what you can do with a loo roll and some glitter card.

Have fun everyone

Elusive Images Christmas Theme Plate 2010

A few years ago I bought a glue pad and refill. I hadn't used it until I made this card. The glitter stuck to it well. I enjoyed making it and I'm not going to put my glitter away this year, girls love sparkly things.

Christmas cards accomplished

Today I finished my last card. I just need to deliver them.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of making cards etc for the Elusive Images Design Team. I've made some lovely friends and learned such alot this year.
I'm going to post a few cards that I've made over the next week or so.

Quick card

Hi again. I think this is the quickest card I've made in quite some time. I've downloaded the freebie christmas give away paper from the Graphics blog.
Pop over and join in with the fun.

Online Party over at Graphicus

Morning to all. Due to the poor weather conditions the Graphicus open days have been cancelled. Anyone who has been to a Graphicus will understand why people travel miles to be there. So with the magic of the interenet they are holding an on line party. Pop over to have a look at what's going on.
I made these table cards as part of my design team sample submission. I stamped out the christmas trees coloured them with copics, added gems aand cut them out. The names are computerd generated using word. I trimmed the cards to sized and drew two lines with a gold krylon pen.

Stay warm and safe

Lazy blogger

I thought I'd post a photo of a card I made as a Elusive Images Design Team sample. I was bowled over when I was told a lot of people had commented on the card. I recieved the Village Life stamp plate stamped out the images in black onto paper and then pondered over what to do with them.
The church seemed ideal for a wedding card. The ideas just flowed. Out came the cuttlebug, the nesties, embossing folders copics and chalks.
Hope you like it.
