Babes and Blooms

You know what it is like....
you make a few cards,
some you like....
and some not so much....


This one I do like.
Lady at work is very prompt with
keeping her filing up to date
and called the file fairy by
her co-workers.
She is also very fit.

So this was for her.....

This one I am very unsure of.
I have seen similar cards
with the paper cut into squares
and stuck in the pattern below.

The paper is Bo Bunny,
and more busy than I usually use,
But I think it looks sort of ok.
The flower is cut from Tim Holts die.

This one is using a down load called Stella
from Bugaboo, I love them!

Stella with a different hair colour!
LOL

Now for another couple of babes....
My wee brown eyed girls.
Bella managed to get into the
recycling box, where my Hubby
had put the empty sacks
the dog biscuits come in....

This took her about twenty minuets....

She also stole the plant from the table
and replanted it,
in several bits,
in a nice deep hole....

Bella is 6 months old,
and now just a wee bit taller
and longer than Poppy!

Am pretty tired today,
Andrew was on a night shift,
Poppy woofed at 1.30am
to let me know that she had scared
off the scary monster....

Bella woke me at 6am by poking Andrews
touch bedside lamp with her nose
and switching it on and off,
and on and off,

Like a disco!!!

*yawn*

Hope you are all well.

Love Teen xx

two makes for tuesday

I love card class, time to craft with others
trying out new techniques.

these two we made this week

are two of my fave !

Excuse the blue kirby grip ....
It is just to hold it together while I took the picture.

These great wee sea gulls we used
were die cuts June took in for us.
Living near the sea I don't like seagulls much,
they steal food including once from our BBQ
dive bomb locals including children
and small animals ! !
But these are cracking !!

The image is stamped in versa mark
then coloured using chalks.
I have not worked with chalks before but am hooked!

The black card circle & image is cut out using
nesties and edged using a gold marker pen.

The white thread is ment to be in a reef knot.
But I pulled it a wee bit hard and you don't see the knot so well.

I carried on the black card with gold edging
inside on the smaller fold of this gate fold card.

My second card is a template card.
We used grey metalic card & mirror card for
the spout & the top bitty.

We used a green ink pad to age the pot.
which is curled a wee bit to make it more 3-D
The leaves are placed behind & over the pot.

I love the wee plant pot and leaves.
We used ink pad to age the pot.
The seed packet and spilling seeds as just dinky.
It has actual seeds glued onto the card.

I enjoyed both these cards.
