Recipe

Card Blank: Craftwork Cards

Stamp: Glitz

I inked the embossing folder before I ran it through the cuttlebug I do love the effect this gives! - just can't remember what ink it was!

Happy Crafting...

Anglomania!

Good morning all, here are some cards I've made using the new Anglomania collection from Craftwork Cards - I confess when I first saw the collection on line I wasn't sure if I liked it - but the more I saw the more I liked it and so I placed an order.... and now actually having the paper set and die cuts I'm really lovin' em! And obviously it is very current for World Cup time! I also think in the future once the World Cup has been and gone, this collection will be great for any footie fan and so great for men's cards - and we all know how hard it is to make cards for men - LOL. Although you will see the first card is for a girl! and I think quite cool! The other two I've customised to make them for father's day too.

My Father's day card

For my father's day card this year, I decided to make it a bit more personal by incorporating a photo which is of me, my dad and my sister. If my memory serves me correctly the photo was taken on father's day a few years ago in my dad's conservatory - so very apt!

The papers, cardstock, card candy, and the large flower are from Craftwork Cards. The butterfly punch is from Tonic and the small flower with the crystal is from Petaloo. The "DAD" wording has been cut on a Cricut George cartridge.

Father's day cards and my anniversary weekend away

I celebrated my 18th Wedding Anniversary last weekend, and hubby and I went to stay with my sister for a long weekend. We had a lovely time with walks on the beach, a visit to a castle with gorgeous gardens and nice meals out....... bliss! I tried to get creative with my photography - but I only had my little camera with me but I'm pleased with some of the shots...




I meant to post this photo before my weekend jaunt its just a few Father's day cards I've made recently to go into my friends shop....
