Shaker Baby!

Hi Everyone, how are you on this sunny Monday morning?

It's time for a new challenge over at BBTB2 and our talented Susan has asked us to use a cricut cut car for our project.

Shaker cards seem to be everywhere at the moment. It's amazing how things come back around again. I used to make these years ago and they are so easy and effective.

I used Nate's Abcs for the card and Art Philosophy at 5" for the card and frame.

With the age of diecutting both electric and manual it makes shaker cards a doddle!

There's lots of motoring fun from my DT sisters so do check them out and come and join in the fun.

Thanks for looking.

                                               

Surprise!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone!

Sorry I have been mising for so long,we had a great holiday.

I used to play lots of golf (competively too) and had forgotten how much I love this daft game!

10 days without crafting?!?

Today is a new challenge over at My Craft Spot.

Challenge #52 is called Make it Pop! We want to see use of dimensionals on your projects.

As many of you know,dimensionals and inking are part of every project I do,so I added extra 'pop' with a jack in the box! C'mon,you know my lateral thinking (read warped mind/sense of humour!) by now!!

It took me forever to get into crafting mode after such a big break. But I think it turned out great.

Fantabulous Cricut Guest Designer

Hi Everyone and welcome to my blog. I am absolutely delighted to tell you that I am Guest Designer over at Fantabulous Cricut today. I love their site and what a great honour it is to be chosen this week, so thrilled!

The challenge this week is 'A Pool Theme' - must make a water based project. Here's my take of the animals having some 'pool fun'........

It's a step card and very easy to make. I took an A4 piece of white card and creased the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th line on my score board then folded the remainder of the card in half.

Recipe

Nate's ABCs - elephant 3.5", crocodile 2.25"

Create a Critter - hippo 2.5", water 1.25"

Everyday Paper Dolls - raindrops and splashes 2.5"

MS punch - grass

Embossing, inking and doodling

Lots of 3d foam and glossy accents

I like how this turned out and hope you do too. Do join in the fun this week over at Fantabulous Cricut. Can't wait to see what you make.

Thanks for looking, have a great week. Jayne x



For Angelo

Hi,how are you doing? Hope your week is going well. Busy,busy,busy around here!! But (shhh..don't tell),hoping to get a bit of time to myself and to do some crafting tomorrow! Yippee!
My son was in the Zooters challenge Monday night where his team (Petersfield)play various cricket challenges before Hampshire play their 20/20 cricket match. He had a great time and Sky even filmed him and his friends dancing!
My hubby is away on a business trip and my son has a friend over to play so managed a quick play with a new cartridge I've just got,Nate's abc's.

I'm entering this into a couple of challenges...
Die Cuttin Divas - #21 Planes,Trains and Automobiles.
Whimsical Wednesdays - Special Get Well Wishes. Margie from Bella Bug Creations,grandson,Angelo,has had a brain tumour removed and is starting chemotherapy. This card is for Angelo,sent with lots of love and prayers for all the family.

I thought this car was perfect.

Have a great evening,thanks for calling by.

Will see you tomorrow.
