Rosie, rosie give me your answer do

I still seem to be on my square card kick, although I am missing my A2 size. This is another image I've had for a while but never used until now. It is one I think I will use again though as she was so lovely to colour. Just recently my digi stamps seem to be getting more of a workout than my actual stamps.

This is my first time using the pre-printed nit wit papers, they were free with a magazine in March and this is their first outing but I might have to get more as the quality is lovely.

Santa Baby

I love that song and find myself singing along whenever I hear it, make me feel Christmassy even when it is extremely hot outside lol. I have made another Christmas card to add to the pile, at this rate I should have all my Christmas cards made by November 2013 lol. As anyone who has visited my blog recently will know I have been trying new techniques, not new to the crafting world perhaps but to me anyway. So for this card I have made a white on white card using snippets. I must say although there is a distinct lack of backing papers I am really pleased with how this turned out. I used lots of flock on his fur trim and may go back and put glitter on his beard but need to decide who he goes to first.

Embossing Folders: Random Dots and Snowflakes both Provocraft

Sentiment: Studio g sentiment and ink pad

Dots: Border stamp, elzybells strawberrry fool ink pad

Mother's Day - UK

Just a quick post to wish all you all a lovely Mother's Day. I made two almost identical cards for my Mum and MIL, the only difference was the colours I used.

Wow - I have posted everyday this week

I have been trying to use some of my neglected stamps and stash and this card is made with both. I used Dexter bear from Sugar Nellie that I am ashamed to admit I bought about two years ago and this is his first inking, and also shrink plastic. I had forgotten how much fun this product was, felt like magic when it started to shrink, not particularly pleased with my colouring on the shrink plastic but will be practising.

I love these papers and have used them loads and loads, perfect colours for soft and gentle cards. Used the last of my Kanban pearls as well, really handy pack but 10 of each isn't enough for me lol, wish they did packs of the single colours.
