And Finally....Another Sugar Nellie Image

I love this image by 'Sugar Nellie'. As always I've used the whisper pens. Letters cut from my Cuttlebug and the circles are the nesties which I just wouldn't be without! Hope you like it.

Football Crazy

Another quick card tonight. This is a 'Paper Nations' stamp. I've used glossy accents to hi-light the football. Cut the no.8 from the cuttlebug. Stamp three footballs. The background paper is from a disc with billions of backgrounds on, which I end up spending half the night going through! Hope you like it.

New Home Card

This is a download image is from 'Pink Petticoat' which I've carefully coloured with whisper pens using my water pen, as the ink can smudge and bleed. I've used little orange gems in the middle of the flowers and drawn fake stitching around the the border with fine permanent black pen. Hope you like it.

Sunflower Surprise

Here is a card I made this evening. The stamp is by Stampendous and is called Sunflower Surprise. I've coloured the image with my whisper pens using a water brush and have used glossy accents on the centre of the sunflower and her cheeks. I hope you like it. Jeanette

Handbag Cards

I made some handbags card last year and realised yesterday that I had sold them all, so thought I'd have another go. I made the template myself and decorated with a variety of paper stock and embellishments. Hope you like them.

Girly Books

There are so many options for 'girly' books. I sold lots with a 'handbag and shoes' theme.

These are also great for the 'hen night' photos!!

Childrens Mini Scrapbooks

Wedding Mini Scrapbook

Baby Mini Scrapbooks

Here are a couple of baby books, which are by far the most popular, followed closely by 'weddings'. These are great as brag books for grandparents/parents and can be sent to relatives who may live far away. They are also great for 'christening mementos' as well for the godparents. Hope you like them.

A Krafty Kow's 30th Birthday

It's the BIG 30 today for Michelle. We had a family BBQ yesterday, and thankfully the weather was good and everybody had a nice time. The children certainly had fun playing in the garden.

This is the cake and card I made for Michelle. The stamp is by 'Whipper Snapper', just perfect for the 'Krafty Kow' birthday girl. I hope you like them.

Happy Bird-day

Here is a card I've made for my friend Gina whom I haven't seen for years but we still keep in touch. The stamp is from 'Whipper Snapper Designs'. I've coloured the image in Whisper pens, hi-lighted the beaks and stars with glossy accents. The sentiment has been hand written. The backing paper was given to me by Jo. When I get more time I'm going to try and do a bit of decoupaging on this image. I hope you like it.

To A Happy Couple - Anniversary Card

Here I've used the Sugar Nellie image of a very cute couple. The paper was again given to me by Jo. I've coloured the image with whisper pens and added a couple of flowers with a heart button. The front sentiment was stamped in StazOn. This is such a cute image. Hope you like it.

Fifi - Stampingbella

I'd not seen this stamp previously so was really please when I managed to buy this one. It's very versatile, as I have used it for many female birthday cards. I've used Dovercraft backing paper, used a sunshine eyelet, and on the image I used glossy accents on the girls hair as well as on the poodles pom poms. Hope you like it.

Stitch & Craft Show

Went to a Stitch & Craft Show on Saturday with a very dear friend of mine, Janine (who incidentally laughs at me having a blog) and was quite disappointed, especially when there were stands selling...beds...woodcutting tools....food..???? If I'd wanted to buy these sort of items I would have gone to a Home Exhibition, so I don't think I'll bother with the next one. But not all was lost as I did manage to spend some time with Janine after and here I am in her new (old) car. She took me out for a ride in it, it was just like Thelma and Louise gone wrong. It rattled, shaked and made you realise how today's cars had actually become very luxurious. No need for air con in this car. What great fun! Terry......I want one!

Goddaughter Card

I very quickly made this card in between doing some baby books tonight. I have been asked quite a few time for 'goddaughter & godson' cards so here one to start with. The stamp is 'Penny Black', the paper was given to me by Jo at Wimborne market (thanks again), with various pieces of card stock. The wording was produce by the pc with a little bow embellishment and ofcourse I've used some glossy accents on the umbrella and raindrops. Hope you like it. Jeanette

Baby Boy Book

Here is another one of my books I made tonight. I don't know what it is but there seems to be more baby boys born than girls, as I seem to make more boy books than girls! I quite like the pale blue and lemon together, as this gives a real fresh look. I've used various embellishments, paper and card stock. These books are quite easy to make but they are extremely time consuming. I should have really been reading my notes ready for my exam next Wednesday but ............I got that crafting urge again!!! Hope you like it. Jeanette

Various Birthday Cards

Had a disastrous evening class tonight, couldn't remember a thing after having the Easter holidays and I've got to sit the exam next week.......nightmare, so I thought rather than getting in a state about it I'd chill out and make a few cards and here they are.

The 'Winnie Pooh & Piglet' stamp I think I 'borrowed' from Michelle quite some time ago. The stamp doesn't look much until you colour it up and then it comes into it's own. I've used glossy accents (a must have!) on the balloon.

Love the 'boy with the guitar' stamp, I think it's by Sugar Nellie, so cute. Hope you like them.

Jeanette

Mini Scrapbook

Just a quicky tonight. For a change here is another one of the 'mini scrapbooks' that I've made.

They've proved quite popular again today at Wimborne market, baby theme being the most favourable as they make the perfect keepsake or gift. Hope you like it. Jeanette

Mothers Day Card and Gift

I've been experimenting with old cds and my crop-a-dile big bite and have made this book for Blue's mums for mothers day and put photo's of all her grandson's in the book. I made her card using the girls about town images which I purchased recently. I coloured them with my new pens I brought from the craft show I went to with mum. Hope she like them.

Off to make my mums card now and some cards for saturday. We're doing a school easter fayre local to us.

Note Pads

Thought I'd have a go at making a couple of note pads, and here they are. Hope you like them!
