Disappeared

Hello.

I'm just here to quickly explain why I seem to have disappeared. The main computer in my house has a virus, so I can't use that, and the laptop I am currently on has a broken fan making it overheat every 10-15 minutes. Hopefully the virus will be gone soon and I can get back to blogging.

Chef

Hello.
One of the birthday's at the end of this month is one of my friends who has now become kitchen manager at the Cafe she works in. I have made this card for her as a back-up. I have a stamp set on order which I want to make her card with, but if it doesn't get here on time she will receive this.

Volcano Birthday

Hello.

This card was really quick and simple to make, but I really enjoyed colouring the lava. I just sized this Dustin Pike image to fit the card coloured it and stuck it on the card front.

Here is a closer shot to show the colours merging in the lava.

Sweet wishes

Hello.
I recently received my last order from Elzybells, so I thought I should have a play with some of the stamps. Here is a CAS card made using the 'Hey Cupcake' set.

D2D Thank You

Hello.
Here is my card using this weeks D2D freebie. I used my circle punches with the image to create the background for the card.

Piggin' birthday

Hello.
This card will be going to my Auntie, who's favourite animals are pigs. The pig image is by Dustin Pike.

Record player

Hello.
This is going to be my Dad's birthday card. His birthday is on Halloween, but I think he's probably had enough Halloween themed cards from me before. This record player is from Starry Night Studios

First birthday

Hello.
Yesterday I mentioned I need to get a few birthday cards done for the end of this month, but for some reason I skipped ahead to the end of next month and made this card for James' cousin's daughter who will be turning one. I made the faux patchwork using papers from the 'Watercolours' and 'Rainbow' mat stacks by Sizzix. The adorable image is by Mo's Digital Pencil, I've seen her stamps on a few people's blogs but only just got around to getting myself some.

1 Year Anniversary

Hello.

The end of this month is quite a busy time for birthday's so I'm trying to get ahead on the cards. This one is for James' sister and her husband who will be celebrating their first anniversary in a couple of weeks.

I used the same five papers to add a decorative strip on the inside.

Apples

Hello.
Here is my card using this weeks D2D freebie. The image on the inside is from Guylou's Inimitability.

Cool

Hello.
This pocket digi was the freebie with the colour challenge on CDAC, but I didn't use the right colours so I'm not entering it. I've sat Joszette from the 'Les Coquettes' set by Stamp Insanity on top of the pocket.

Birthday girl

Hello.
This sweet image is a freebie from Stamp Insanity. She is a Valentine's day image, but she is only holding a Valentine's card which is fairly well hidden so she can be used for anything really.

Bass baby

Hello.
This card is for two challenges. The challenge at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz was 'bling it on' so I have given her a glittery bass and earrings, and added some gems. The second challenge is this weeks CPS sketch.

Circle Paper

Hello.
I had the idea for this paper in my head all day and made it straight after getting home from work. Usually things don't go exactly how I want them to look but this paper went pretty much perfect!

Halloween set

Hello.
I've been using more Elzybells stamps today. I've made a set of five really simple Halloween cards. They were really quick to make, but I think they came out quite cute.

Nice board

Hello.
After yesterday's post about not using digi stamps for a while I realised what stamps I needed to use. Elzybells is closed now :( so I used some Elzybells stamps for today's card.
