A Christmas Card

Afternoon,

We had a fab time at the museum earlier - we dressed up as the three bears - it was very cute!

Here's my second card of today.

I love this little boy - it's a pollycraft digi.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Christmas Presents

Afternoon!

Here's my latest card -I've just been having a little play while my two little ones are asleep.

The image is a magazine freebie - I can't take any credit for this I'm afraid.  I've just counted up my Christmas cards and I've made 13 already! That's fairly organised for me.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:


Tuesday Throwdown - None Stamped Sentiment
Winter Wonderland - Have lights on it. (There are some on the image on the if you look carefully Honest!!! I was sad that I had nothing with lights on - so was chuffed when I found this topper.)
Saturday Challenge - Christmas Is Coming

Thanks for looking!

30th Birthday

Afternoon!

My husband is 30 tomorrow - so I've been working on his card this morning.  I've already given it to him though as I didn't got an envelope big enough, plus he was milling around whilst I was cursing and cutting out the little boy and his car - I need to either get some decoupage scissors or get a new blade for my craft knife!

He really liked it and said that it reminded him of playing outrun in the arcade machines when he was a teenager ( Which is a very long time ago now!! ha ha!)

 

The image is called AJ - the race car driver and it's one of the images I chose from The Stamping Boutique as part of my prize from Tuesday Throwdown a week or so ago.  The image looks really flat on this photo, but I've done it in three layers.  I'm also loving Core-dinations card at the minute.

I always forget how hard it is to get really nice DP for male cards - there are literally thousands for the girls, so I did a little happy dance when I spotted this at the craft store!  It's lovely and so summery!

There are loads of challenges to enter with this card:

• Pollycraft Monday - Celebrations
• Craft Your Passion - Anything Goes
• Stamp Something - July Digi Day
• Catch the Bug - Anything Goes

Oriental

Morning!

Here's something I made last night - I was sorting through all my lovely papers (I sometimes seem to spend a whole evening looking at my papers and bits rather than making cards).  I found some oriental papers and chipboards which I got free in a magazine ages and decided to use them up.

I also found some black/red core-dinations card which I bought a couple of months ago when a crafts website had a fab sale. My rubbish photography, however, doesn't show up the red distressed edges well - it looks much better in real life. 

I'm going to add this card into the following challenge:

• Sketch N Stash - Challenge 64.
