Sweet Swans

 

Afternoon All!

Just thought I'd share another little card I made with Lawn Fawn's Swan Soiree set. This time I made them into a Valentine's Card, but it would just as easily be perfect for an anniversary card too.

The papers are also Lawn Fawn from the Polka in the Dark pad. I coloured my images with my Spectrum Noir Classiques and decorated the inside to match.

Martha and Mum

 


Today I thought I'd share a scrapbook page for a change. I love researching my family history and have lots of old photos so I've decided I need to copy and scrapbook a few more so that family in the future know who the people are.

I've decided to go with A4 layouts again as they are easier to store. I have just basic info on the front as all the details are printed on the back.

This photo is of my lovely mum as a very young girl, with her Gran, Martha. I used mainly Crafter's Companion papers from the Garden of Love range, fussy cutting the flowers, adding ribbon and a punched border, and the diecut sentiment.

Hope you like it!

Hi Everyone!
If you have seen the Crafter's Companion new products shows this week, or the latest Crafter's Inspiration magazine shows, you may well have seen the lovely Caring Thoughts range. With a really beautiful colour palette, images and sentiments - it is a great all occasions collection.
Here are some of my makes - which also appear in the magazine - for crafty inspirations :)

Celebrate

 


Hi Everyone!

I just thought I would pop by and share my latest make - a little stepper card using some of my lovely Graphic 45 stash. Most of the papers are from Botanical Tea with a couple of elements from Sweet Sentiments to create lots of layers.

Hope you like it!

Welcome Little One

 


Morning All!

This year I'm determined to have a few different occasions covered in my card stash, so this week I decided to make a New Baby Card with my Lawn Fawn 'Swan Soiree' stamps.

I made it in a yellow theme so that it would be suitable for a baby girl or boy. I also used my Gemini Nesting Dies, Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid papers and coloured the images with my Spectrum Triblends, then added a little decoration inside.

Hope you like it!


Along with the Facebook Use your Craft Stash challenge, I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Lighthouse Look Out



 Happy New Year Everyone! I hope it is a much better one for us all!

Today I'd like to share a card I made with some new Hunkydory large oval and Scalloped oval dies that I've got to make a shaped card. I really like this shape and know I will be making many more in the future.

I combined these with images from Crafter's Companion Nautical range which I coloured with my Spectrum Noir Pens. I was determined to make a masculine themed card as I was short of them in my stash last year :) Hope you like it!
