Whats New Pussycat

Good Afternoon,

This is the E-Mail I received from a friend giving me the brief for an order:

A large size card - to read “Happy 21st Birthday Dominique - she has a black cat with white socks, can you use this as the subject of the card.

Took a while, not sure what to do, then remembered I had this very cute image which was a freebie from The Stamp Fairy called Kasi. I took the image over to silhouette studio to print and cut the image out then coloured it in with markers. I also printed and cut the sentiment and it's mat in silhouette which I position in puddy's paws.

The numbers were cut on the silhouette in a LOTV paper & the mat in black card.

Heartfelt creations stamp and die set was used to make the flowers and leaves

Well 1 week of my leave has gone, goes so quickly!

I've had a lovely week, got quite a bit of my to do list ticked and been out for lunch twice.

Hopefully I'll get the remaining things ticked early on in the week so that I can spend a day or two in my craft room having a little playtime as I'm up to date with orders.

This fortnight the prize at Friday Sketch Challenge is an embellishment pack worth £20.

It's getting very annoying!

It's turned off twice while writing this post :( 

Grrr!

Good Morning,

Something a bit different from me today, a shaped card.

I was asked to make a card for a friends Mum to give to her Great Grandson.

I see something online similar using dies but as I hadn't got a die suitable I got my Daughter to design me a cut file for the cameo.

After cutting all pieces in brown card ans brown wrapping paper the edges were inked before layering up. The sentiment was computer generated which was added to look as if the little fellow is holding it. I was pleased with how it turned out so made a few for my stock box, they sold at the first craft fair I took them to. Must get cutting!

Filled With Wonder

Good Afternoon,

Flowers - Tangled flowers stamp set 

Sentiment - Sweet & stripey stamp set
