Sparkle & Shine

I have been a busy bee this week working on lots of upcoming magazine projects but I did manage to sneak in a bit of crafty shopping & some crafty me time. I got some lovely WPlus9 Stamps to play with and of course I couldn't wait to get them stamped up. Here is my first creation...

For this card I used WPlus9 Sparkle & Shine Stamps. I stamped all the little diamonds randomly and coloured them with my Copics. I also added some glitter to each of the small grey gems. I love this Mint, Grey & Black combo so expect to see more of it. I just need more grey card now.

I am so excited that My Mums Craft Shop is now going to be stocking WPlus9, arriving soon!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges...

Cute Card Thursday - Stamping Mad

Floral Thank You

Today I had a lovely day off, I had my usual bi monthly hair appointment and whilst I was out I checked out the sales. I found some lovely designer boots in debenhams so of course I had to get them, luckily they were 70% off and I actually needed them...honest!! Now it's time to share with you my other creation from my floral project in Making Cards.

How pretty are these flower stamps? I just love them and am loving everything Clearly Besotted are releasing right now. I am building up quite a collection! For this card I used the Fresh Flowers Stamps & coordinating dies. I also used a MFT background die along with some dotted embossing. I decorated the card using some twine, mini buttons and some pearls.

I will be back soon, thank you for stopping by :)

Heartfelt Thanks

It's back to normal in our house now, girls back at school me back to work - it's normal again and I am very thankful for that! It means I can get the house back to normal although it is still a bit chaotic here with all new toys everywhere - we need more storage units so we can put them away! So back to cards...today I am sharing a floral card that I made for Making Cards Magazine.

 These beautiful stamps are called Fresh Flowers by Clearly Besotted. I coloured them using mmy Copics and die cut them using the matching Fresh Flowers Dies. The background I created using a MFT Die-namics Die. I also added some Purple, Green & Kraft card along with some twine, pearls & a mini button.

I will be back with my other card from this project tomorrow.

Little Meow Sweet Birthday

Well the start of the new year is here! I really hope 2015 is as good as 2014 has been, although it's had it's downs and difficult times most of it has been great for me and my family for once! So on with the crafting, here is a card I made using the brand new collection from Docrafts, Little Meow...

How cute are these little kitties? Obviously being called Kitty myself I am quite partial to cute cats! I so badly want a silver tabby too one that looks like this will be perfect. For this card I used the Little Meow Ultimate Die Cut & Paper Pack for the papers, border & decoupage. I also added a heart doily, ribbon & self adhesive gems. I have been feeling quite poorly the last few days so decoupage has been a god send as I can be comfy on the sofa and make loads in an evening.
