DAISY FOLDER CARD

 Hello everyone,

I know, I'm back again, gosh I've been busy and have quite a bit to show you, but first, my card I made for fun and using gorgeous dies to go along with new papers..



These gorgeous new papers I received for my birthday..
I know, I heard the sharp intake of breath..

I'll wait until we are all composed..




This sweet little die has so many bits to it to make one, but worth it..
From, Honey Bee Stamps - " Lovely layers Peonies "


so cut a few of them and ready to build my buds..


and these papers are the reason, see the buds in the background..
They match..


So I even went a bit further and made a mummy flower to go with the baby buds.


Along with leaves there are going on the tag..


Maybe I should have die cut a few more Peonies for the cover, 
but went with a daisy die cut..mmm..

The front..



Inside..



opening the folded flap..




and inside a gorgeous retro lady..


Tag out...


another tag on the right with the daisy..
and side pocket on left.


with little buds


tags out..


Back to the front..

So there you go..

What a fun day...thank you so much for stopping by.
I'll see you again soon..

CREATE YOUR OWN BACKGROUND..DT

 Hello everyone,

I'm back and it is Wednesday and time for a new challenge over at Little Red Wagon and our lovely Brenda is our hostess this week and her theme is " Create you own background " one of many things that is a favourite of mine..

So, I made some big tags..


and these are the final few tags in my stash that I made so long ago..


See, pretty big..


and I plunged right into my sticker stash of flowers..


Gosh, I love these stickers, they are so pretty..


So made heaps..


Then the modelling paste came out..


and used a stencil to smooth the paste onto the tag..


They dried beautifully, time for stamping..


You may have to squint a bit but there is a lot of stamping..
numbers and text..


Then I spattered them with white paint..


of course the butterflies had to come out to play..


and they are beautiful too..


By now there was a lot going on and they were finished..

I love them..

so do come and join us HERE



Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you soon..

BABY BOY #3

 Hello everyone,

This is my last card using neutral papers..I must to admit I've enjoyed myself..


Again, these new papers are adorable....and neutral in colour.
This is the front..


a pocket inside with a tag and some charms..


The back side of the tag and a place to write..


and the pretty papers side..


Then the Marianne Creatables rocking horse die and
a tiny picture frame...



and inside the frame is a teddy bear pilot ( from the last set of papers )


Then these papers were too pretty to cover so turned the 
writing oval on it's side..




In this oval I put a die cut boat, with waves made from inky papers I made ages ago, 
and some clouds..


This is card all opened up..well, nearly all..

So there we go..
Thank you so much for stopping by..
See you soon..

FRIEND OF MINE..DT

 Hello everyone,

It is LITTLE RED WAGON  time and our lovely JanR is hostess with rthe theme.." Friend of mine " - to a friend or friendship..

For make this week I went with a shaker and averry bold pouch for my shaker bits..it was a foam tape holder..


Here's the  pouch and in the background I was sorting out frames I had made to fit over


and had quite afew to choose from, but it had to a perfect fit..


Presto, found one...and after I covered the pouch which, 
by the way, is really deep
I added the frame..


This is how deep it is...


So glued in place after adding a nautical picture for the background
and filled with sea or ocean coloured sequins, lots of blues and greens
and some of those moisture beads you get to soak up moisture in handbags etc..I collect them and have
jars full of them, all colours..they are safe, just don't eat them..


then a navy and cream pom pom trim ribbon..


A chipboard welcome aboard sign and a starfish..
along with a TH friend die cut.




There she is all shook up and glued onto a card base..


Inside is this beautiful Kaiser craft stamp..

" A friend is the nicest thing you can have
and one of the best things you can be "


all the sequins have settled down and the card was done..

So do come and join in with us HERE


thank you so much for stopping by
I'll see you again real soon..
