Spot the circle!!

My cards today were made using a circle punch, really I did!

I have a video over in my shop page if you are interested.

It was a fun technique and one I haven't used before

and it came about because the lovely Carol sent me a video link

which clicked my brain into action for this design.

I will give the cards a try Carol as they were such a great idea

and I am sure Mary from our group, did a few cards using that technique too.

I have used the gorgeous Countryside Inn papers along with Timeless

Arrangements bundle and a 2 3/8" circle punch.

Roofers are back again, only the second time this week💩

but at least they are here.

My son and daughter in law are taking us out to Belfast

this evening for some entertainment and we are both

looking forward to getting out of the house for a while!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Lots of hugs.

A little bit of pink!

Really dark card today. I thought I had lightened it up enough,

but unfortunately not. I am working in bad light as I have been

keeping the blinds closed in my room while the roofers were here.

I played around with the Gorgeously Made Bundle and my colour is

Bubble bath pink.

I created some layers with the page die, added the leaves and some gold

thread and gold gems.

I did do a video showing the process but for a tag.

The video will be on my Shop page over on Facebook.

Just wanted to say.....

Am I too early for Valentine's day???

I know these cards will be going to my sons for their partners,

only another two to make lol.

But it's a win win, I enjoy making them, they enjoy giving them.

Anyway, I made a video tutorial for this card for my

VIP GROUP over on Facebook

showing how to make a card so you can see both sides of

your gorgeous papers.

I used a brand new bundle called Country Bouquet which comes

with stamps and a matching punch which also punches out

the hearts on the papers.

Silent night.....

Happy Monday!

Today I had a play with the stamp set

Peace to You.

I used the church scene last week and this is the other larger

stamp you get with the set.

I used my layering rectangles for the layers,

then stamped the image and added some colouring using my blends.

Of course it would look just as nice left white.

There was just the right amount of space at the bottom

to add my sentiment.

It rained all day long, house was in darkness and so was my mood!

Thankfully today is brighter and I've got a bit of

get up and go!

Hope you have too. Have a great week!

Sympathy Card 2

Happy Monday!

My card today is the second of my Sympathy card video series.

This is another take on the basic sketch I followed on Friday.

This time I have inked up a strip of stripes using

powder pink ink and a handmade template.

The flowers are from Floral Essence stamp set

which is actually well reduced in the sale

and the main colour of the card is

cherry cobbler card and ink.

I followed the design through to the inside.

Up with the birds this morning as car needs

a bit of work so we wanted to get in early to

avoid the schools traffic.

Have a great week everyone.
