NOT PINK AGAIN...!!!
Afternoon everyone...and yet another card.....my card creations are like buses nothing for ages and then they all come along at once.....and yes!!! I'm sorry, its pink again.
This is a card that I have made for my mum's birthday, its not until Sunday but its safe here until then as I don't think she looks at my blog....in fact I know she doesn't.....
The image is ideal for mum as she sews/embroiders {but she absolutely hates cross stitch}....so I'm sure she'll love this card....hope so anyway...I've just noticed that the image is a bit wonky but I'm sure mum will forgive me for that.
The image is from House Mouse and I've coloured with Promarkers. The papers are Forever Friends ~ Pink Parfait. The border punch is Martha Stewart. I have used various punches for the leaves and flowers and the pearls and pins are from the Hobby House.

THE CHRISTMAS STORY
This is the front view....
And this is the side view....
This card started out using a beer mat which was left over from last weeks workshop that I attended. I have altered it using Gesso and Spakle then added Distress Inks and Glimmer Mists...I've had a go at an easel card as I don't do these very often.The papers were in my scrap box and the flower is made from left over bits of paper from the workshop project. The small image is from a Crafty Individuals book and the leaves are Magnolia die cuts. I have finished off with pearls and gems and some Stickles to the flower.

PRETTY AS A PICTURE
Its amazing what you can do with a few beer mats, some inks and die cuts....and lots of crafty embellishments.
The class was taught by Sue who is so talented and incredibly patient with everyone. I learnt so many new techniques and I had a wonderfully messy time having a play with lots of new (to me) products....and learning new ways to use Distress Inks.....
And another thing, I've actually finished this project too. I'm getting a bit good at completing my projects.
Thank you for stopping by.

HEY DIDDLE DIDDLE
I have no reason to make this card other than the stamp was a real bargain and I just had to have it. It was in a sale basket at one of my local craft shops and it was only 99p. Well what is a girl to do......
The stamp is from Rubber Stampede and is called ~ Cow Jumps Over Moon....I thought it would come in handy at some point. There was only a little colouring to do with Promarkers and the papers are from Craft Creations Ltd. The border punch is from Martha Stewart and I have added buttons, dew drops and some Stickles to the stars.
I followed a sketch from this weeks Totally Gorjuss Challenge....
