A floral tribute....

Hello there,
My it's cold in the hills this morning, I must admit I prefer it to being too hot though. This card is a C.A.S.E. of a card I saw on an English demonstrators blog, I loved the colours, so thought I'd give it a go. The original is on Jen Moors blog and she is a very talented lady. I did another version of this in slightly different colours, so I'll upload that one next. It uses the gorgeous set Vintage Vogue and of course Curvy Verses for the sentiment. I love easel cards and think they make a lovely gift for people,because they're just a little different from the normal opening card. I hope you like this one, lots of inky hugs from....

Tulips from bird wings...

Hello there paper crafters,
I hope you have all had a lovely weekend, we a had a long one here in Western Australia, so that was a nice treat. I am off to my friends house for a day of creating in a little while, but I thought I'd give you a little spring time before I left, I know it's not spring here, but it is else where in the world. This is a C.A.S.E.d card from the lovely Nicole Derendorf. I have seen several versions of this card around, but thought I would have a go at this one as I loved the colours, which are our lovely Melon Mambo and the ever versatile Old Olive. I have used the two step x-large bird punch which is available in our current mini catalogue right now. The bird's wing is used to make the tulips and the birds body is trimmed down to make the leaves, isn't it clever?? I love it. I hope you like it too, enjoy your day, lots of inky hugs from .....

A lady bird thank you.

hello out there in blog land,
I'm still without a roof and it's getting colder by the day, I am hoping that the roofing guys will be coming tomorrow to finish things of, then I have to clear out that hobby room for the ceiling to be painted. I made this card for one of my dear customers who loves lady birds, she took me out to dinner for my birthday last week and so I thought she'd like this card, I also managed to find some little lady bird chocolates to go with it. hope you like it, lots of inky hugs from a very cold ....

Friendship Quilt...

Hi there Folks,
I was going to show you all the swaps I took to convention today, but they haven't been water marked yet, so here is a little friendship quilt which I made using the fabulous Big shot and the most popular die "The top note" I used the 1 and 1/4" square punch to cut out scraps of dsp from the Raspberry Tart pack and glued them onto the white card stock before putting it through the big shot with the top note die, this is the result. Then I drew on the stitches with a Stampin' write marker and added the buttons using the buttons die and some more raspberry tart papers, I finished the buttons off with a layer of window sheet cut with the same buttons die to make them shiny, you could put on crystal effects but that takes a while to dry and I wasn't feeling very patient that day! The ribbon is the new yummy in colour Melon Mambo which is the same as the base card. I hope you like it, I certainly had fun making this one. Take care, lots of inky hugs from....
