Make It Crafty Boot

Another one of Make It Crafty images, this is the Boot House & can be purchased here . It is coloured with Promarkers & mounted onto papers from my scrap drawer ( I really must use these more often). The flowers and ribbon came from my stash as did the candy. The sentiment is a QVC one from years ago, which I have coloured & edged again with Promarkers to match the card.

Make It Crafty Mushroom/Toadstool

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR DIVAS BY DESIGN DT CARD

Before I went on holiday I purchased several of Zoes Make It Crafty images as I do love them & she had a sale going on. Here is one of them.

This is the mushroom house which I have coloured with Prisma pencils & blended with Sansador. I have mounted it onto Bearly Mine papers. (One was a freebie & the other from Spots & Gingham CD). A MS Daisy punch was used to decorate the edges.

As it is an easel card, I stuck dew drops onto the card to keep it standing upwards. Another Daisy edge was added to the bottom of the card with more dew drops.

I used my Craft Robo to make the Moving Home words. Flowers is hand made with a little glitter added.

Here is my birthday card.

I have used a stamp from Tulip & coloured with Promarkers. The backing papers are also from the same company Tulip & matches the stamps. Circle cut out on Spellbinders nestie & the spiral circle cut out on Craft Robo. I coloured the spiral with Promarkers & edged the top circle. Used a MS Daisy punch on the edges of the paper.  The flowers & wired jewel came from my monthly subscription to Crafty Feeling, which has now been taken over by Duck Pond Crafts. Ribbon from stash The Happy Birthdays were stamped using a Stamping Up set of stamps  (difficult to see top one as watermark over it).

Golden Wedding

Right folks, I am back, after a 4 week holiday in Cyprus where I topped up the tan & generally had a good time in the sun. I did take my Prisma pencils with me, but didnt do as much colouring as I thought I would.
Anyway I was asked to make a Golden Wedding Anniversary card this week & here it is.

I used Classical Bridal Couple Magnolia image which I coloured with Promarkers. To make the gold effect tag & mount, I sprayed a sheet of card with Dawn Bibby Designs Golden Glitz Shimmer & then cut out the shapes I wanted. The vellum backing paper is from Jak Heath. Years ago before she was famous in the craft world lol, she was a member of a forum I visited all the time & she made a few CDs, of which this is from. I changed the colour slightly to a gold effect & attached to the card with brads (QVC years ago). The tag is a Magnolia die & the swirl is a Sissix die. Ribbon, flowers, hat pin, all from stash. I have also dug up some peel offs, peel offs I hear you say, noone uses them anymore, do they??
Inside I have used My Craft Studio to create a writing oval & inserted Golden Wedding.

Excuse the different colours, thats my photos, they are the same I promise! On the box I have also used the same paper, attached a big ribbon & more peel offs.

I am entering this into the following challenges & promise to get around my favourite blogs very soon.

Diva By Design Pastels

Its time for Team B to showcase this weeks challenge over at Divas By Design

This week it is Pastels & is sponsored by Crafty Emmas

I made this card using pale pink pearlised card, onto which I Cuttlebugged Swiss Dots folder paper & rounded off the corners & stuck it onto the card. I then used a Doohickey die to add a border acroos the bottom. Onto that I added a pretty pink & white ribbon & bow. The butterfly is also a Doohickey die (Dragonfly with extra body cut off), onto which I added dew drops.Another Doohickey Tag die mounted & the sentiment from a stamp set I have (Elusive Images) I think. The flowers are from my stash & mounted to make a display.

I look forward to seeing all your entries.

Parisian Dreams

This is a card I made before going on holiday using Parisian Tilda which I have coloured with Distress inks. Spiced Marmalade, Walnut Stain & Sage Green.

I Googled a free image of the Eiffel Tower & again coloured with Distress Inks.

The papers I am afraid were in my stash, so no idea whose they are, but lending themselves perfectly to the card.

I added faux stitching to the edges of the papers.

Eiffel Tower charm added onto ribbon which I have attached using Eyelets. Flower from stash & sentiment is an old QVC purchase.

God it has taken me longer to add the challenges than it did to make the card. The internet is so slow here in Cyprus & doesnt help that Blogger seems to have issues too.!

On hols

Just to say I am away for a month now & whilst I do have internet access, it is very slow & frustrating, so whilst I am trying to keep up with my DT commenting (not that well this morning as blogger is alsoo messing me about), please forgive me if I do not get to comment on my fav blogs.
I do have some cards saved in drafts, so you may just see a card or two from me during July, but will be not so good on the commenting.
By the way its gorgeous & sunny & hot here in Cyprus.
