Perfect Pair card

Good morning friends, just popping by with
 another card.


I used an old Beccy's Place digi, then fussy 
cut it and did a bit of inking to add interest.


Nice card for a couple or even for  Xmas
 as it also has Mistletoe in the image.
 
 
Enjoy your day whatever you have
 planned ;)

More Christmas cards

Good afternoon everyone, I am here once
again to show you more Christmas cards
I have made.
 
 
 
Simple ones again but I do like simple ;)
Handy tip! if your vellum looks creased
 after you stick it down, pass it through your
 machine. I used my A4 'Happy Cuts' and it
 came out fine!
 
 
 
On the first one, my printer was playing up and
the paper printed in lilac shading to grey. I
quite like the effect though so used it anyway.
I embossed some of the sentiments using
 a 'snowy' folder.
 
 
 
 
Pink Petticoat 'Pretty Flakes' digi paper, DSB sentiment
 
 
 
Similar card but all grey this time, same digi paper and sentiment
 
 
 
 
Same digi paper in pink this time and a Clearly Besotted sentiment
 
 
 
 
Same paper and same sentiment but on vellum this time and heat embossed
 
 
 
 
 
Same paper and vellum but heat embossed in blue this time
 
 
 
 
In lilac this time and a DSB sentiment again,Poppystamps snowflake
 
 
 
 
Similar to above card

Snowy Xmas card

Good evening all, just popping by to share
another quick Xmas card I made recently.
 
 
Glad to report I am well on my way to
making most of mine now. I seem to have
got all my Xmas pressies too, not like
 me at all.
 
 
Hope you are getting Xmas things done,
it does tend to creep up on you and surprise
 you otherwise !



Right here is my card, have a lovely
 evening ;)
 
 
 
ps. Adding it to this week's 'LIM' challenge
which is to make a 'one layer' card and 'Santa'
as a theme. Hmm not sure it's too busy but the 
penguin does look like a Santa....right ??

out today! Glad I am nice and warm in my 
craft room ;)

I found this super cute Santa bird, just love
his expression too. I added some stitched
 lines and coloured him with Promarkers
and added a bit of sparkle to his hat, 
job done!


Enjoy your weekend whatever you have 
planned.We are babysitting again for our
youngest granddaughter, so lots of cuddles
planned ;)

Autumn Leaves card

Good morning friends, I hope you are all
doing ok? A rainy day here again but a 
good excuse to enjoy some time in the
 craft  room ;)
 
 
 
Here is my 'Less is More' card for this
weeks challenge which is a colour one....
 
 

FIRE
 
 
 
"Please try to stick to the colours that can be
 seen in fire with any additional shades being
 kept to neutral or metallic shades."



This is what I came up with, thinking of
Autumn shades too.I am sure I have made a 
similar card in the past but hey ho ;)



ps. I am well into making my Xmas cards now,
happy days! but a warning to anyone thinking 
of making the 'reindeer bags'. Please use edible
 glitter in them as it can poison birds and wildlife
 if they eat it. See HERE for more info.

Hang in There card

Good evening friends, I am sharing my latest
'Less is More' card at long last!
Been so busy organizing a Halloween party
 for the grandchildren yesterday.
 
 
I only managed to get the house back to 
normal today. Bats, scary mice, posters,
cobwebs with spiders. I went mad as
 usual lol.
 
 
 
 I think I may have OHD...
Obsessive Halloween disorder!! Anyway
the littlies enjoyed it all and the numerous 
games  we played. Pin the wart on the witch,
also Don't eat Fred (google it) was a big
 hit too.


Anyway I will leave a few photo's below
if you are nosey. Now onto my 'LIM' card.
The them this week is......
 
 
Paper Piecing
 
 

Why do I always read that as paper 
piercing?? I am not a fan of the
subject I'm afraid.....but I did have a
 quick go anyway. Please be kind ;)



How lovely to see that Val is a guest
 designer over at LIM this week too!!
Great card too Val ;)



Right enough waffling, here is my card.


ps. Glad you can't see me as I write this
 as I am waving a bat (for getting flies with)
madly all around me. A drated fly is driving
 me mad swooping wildly at me randomly.




Cat, CAS
Aww look at that cute kitty !

I put lots of signs up, this was outside the bathroom.
