Evening Everyone!
It's been a while since I've done any 'family history' scrapbooking, so I pulled out the lovely 'Woodland' collection by Mintay Papers and created this layout.
The photo is of my Gran, who moved to a countryside village as a young married woman, so I decided to fussy cut all of the woodland images to create my scene. I layered each piece up to give dimension and added glitter to give a mystical forest glade look.
Hope you like it!
Morning All!
Today I thought I'd share a little card and gift set that I made for my friend's birthday this month. I used the two September sheets from Graphic 45's Time to Flourish range as the images are so beautiful and perfect for this time of the year.
I teamed the papers with some dark green pearlized card to make the card and box bases, and really managed to stretch my papers and scraps across the the three projects.
Hope you like them!
Hi Everyone!
Today I'm sharing a 6x4 inch faux shutter card that I've made for a friend's wedding.
I used the beautiful Mintay 'City of Love' 6x6 paper pad, which is full of florals, damask patterns and gorgeous scenes in pinks and creams.
At the front and back of the pad there are some images to fussy cut which I used to embellish my card, popping them up on foam pads for dimension. I also used some diecut white hearts to help separate the patterns, then added the lovely sentiment to the top.
I added a white stamped panel to the back for my message.
Hope you like it :)
Hi All!
It's been a while since I've shared my makes on my blog, so I thought I would remedy that with some pics of some Pop Up Cards that I have made, combining Graphic 45 papers with the Lawn Fawn Pop up Die.
The collections that I have used are Graphic 45 Grow With Love, On the Boardwalk, Botanical Tea and Warm Wishes.
I have included a little video link to my Youtube site here to show you how I made them.
Thanks for popping by!
Hi All!
I recently had a rummage through my stash looking for images and papers to make some masculine cards, and I chose the lovely vintage 'Good Ole Sport' collection from Graphic 45
There are lots of sports covered in this collection so I grouped some together and tried to theme my cards to Rugby, Driving - cars and motorbikes - and then Golf and Tennis. These are the three cards I came up with, grouping lots of fussy cut elements and having fun creating my collage layouts, then decorating the insides with some of the border strips.
Hope you like them!
Hi Everyone!
Sorry its been a while!
Yesterday I demo'd at the lovely Gillies Crafts in Ellesmere Port with some of the latest ranges from Crafter's Companion.
Below are just some of my demonstrations for your inspiration.
Many thanks to all the lovely ladies that attended - we had a great day sharing crafty tips and chat!
