NEED TO GET BACK TO BLOGGING!!!!!!

I have been to my craft class today with the lovely Diane Whitehouse (even though myself & my friend Chris were an hour late) we managed to catch up with everyone else!!! Just need to colour my images & put the final touches to a really beautiful Christmas card that I will put on here at a later date! Blogs were mentioned & I thought it was high time I came on to share some of my latest work. A couple of cards that my friend requested  for her Daughter & Mum.

This one is for her Daughters 40th & she wanted something to do with fashion /london so Kanban came up a treat with this design for me.

This one for her Mum who sadly was rushed into hospital at the weekend so hopefully this card will cheer her up if she is still in on her birthday!! She wanted a flowery decoupage card so after going through my craft room I came across this lovely set from Flowersoft that I bought some time ago still unopened!!!!!

HARD TO MAKE MAN CARD LOL!!!

Well how good is this 2 cards in one day lol!!

I had to do this today to post to my Niece's lovely husband Jimmy. They both come from Australia but decided they would like to spend some time in the UK & now live & work in London. That's brilliant for us because we get to see them more often. He apparently likes his rugby (All Blacks) from Oz is his favourite team so that kind of made it easy for the colouring in. Well that's my excuse lol!! 

Stamp - Rugby- Vintage Memories

Stamped in memento & coloured in with Flexmarkers (love them)

Used an Ink Duster with Distress inks for Sky & Grass

Sentiment - Stampin up

Mounted onto Black embossed dotty card & Silver mirri card.

A CARD FOR MY NEPHEW'S PARTNER

This is just a simple but effective card I made for Georgia who lives in Australia. I have never met her but I know she loves horses. 

I have used Inkadinkadoo clear stamps to stamp the main image & then made a border with the smaller galloping horses.

I have distressed the edges with Walnut Stain & added some Jute & a few buttons from my stash.
