Paris Girl 2

Hi again!

Back with another card in my Paris Girl series.

The paper is Carta Bella paper - Paris Girl, I have made the rosette using the Martha Stewart scoreboard. I have just got this so I can do various sizes of rosettes and have different edges on them. The button in the middle is made with another toy I have just bought -  Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool - Round. Have loved playing with this!!

Did you see the Design Team announcement on the Artfull Crafts Blog yesterday? I have made it back onto the team for another year, which I am thrilled to bits about! So thanks to Liz and I can't wait to share some more of my work with you!

TFL!

Happy Creating!

Paris girl

Hi there!

Well I can't believe it is nearly a month since I last posted!! But I have just got through a really busy 3 weeks. Calving started on the 20 July and we have been flat out since! We have 300 of our 400 cows calved and I am rearing/feeding 230 calves so far! Plus it hasn't helped that in the last 2 weeks, we have had half our yearly rainfall!!! So it has been very wet & muddy!! But I am now in a routine each day and have managed to get an hour or two in my craftroom! Had a good sort/tidy up and now have some cards to show you over the next few days!


I have been using Carta Bella paper - Paris Girl, love these dress Manequins. The die I have used is from MFT-Sew Nifty.  The tape measure ribbon is just new out from Kaisercraft.

Happy Creating!

Carta Bella-Beautiful Moments cards

Hi there - Here are some Carta Bella-Beautiful Moments cards I have made.


Love this Beautiful Moments Collection that this new company, Carta Bella, has put out.
I have also used the new Kaisercraft -Miss Match- ingo cards and their Vintage - Cherish Stamp.
As well I have used my favourites - Bakers twine, Butterfly Punch, Brads and the TH Ticket die.

 I am now back from holiday after spending 3 weeks up in the lovely Golden Bay at the top of the South Island!  Spent the time reading, walking & fishing! No crafting! So I am excited to be getting back into scrapping and card making.

Happy Creating!

2 Nostalgia Cards

Hi there,  here are a couple of cards to show you, using the Ruby Rock-it Nostalgia Collection.

For this card I die cut a kraft tag then stamped and white embossed a quote on it. I then added some of the chipboard from the collection in the way of the daisies, swirls and bird.

 This is an easel card to which I have added the chipboard spinner to the front.
A very versatile collection to work with.

Happy Creating!
