Husband & Wife

Hi all :)

I hope you all have been staying nice and warm in the winter snow weather. Today I am sharing a card that I made using some new products from Polkadoodles. I often get asked for Wedding cards so I thought maybe i should make a few while I can...

For this card I used the new Work & Play 9 Love & Kisses Digital Collection. All the papers, image and embelllishments are from this collection. I mounted them all onto Kraft card to give it a rustic feel. I added some lace, a doily, pearl hearts, hessian butterfly and a ribbon bow to finish.

I will be back soon :)

Octavia Merry Christmas

 Hello, I am back as promised with my second card from my Octavia Frosted Winter project that was made for Making Cards Magazine...

Everything is pretty much from the Polkadoodles Frosted Winter Octavia CD Rom the sentiment, embellishments, image and papers that is. I mounted everything onto black card and distressed all the edges. There is loads of glitter on this too but it doesn't show up too well in pictures. I also added some gems to the Christmas tree along with some ribbon and a resin flower to finish.

Hope you have enjoyed my project and I will be back soon.

Craft Room Sign

Over the weekend i had a sort out of my craft stash, binned loads of odds & ends (shock horror), got some bist to sell and found some stuff i forgot about!! It was rather productive just seemed to take agessss. I thought well i need a new sign for my craft area, technically i don't have a craft room more half the lounge just craft area didn't sound very good so i still put craft room in hope one day i'll have one ;) 

All the elements are from the gorgeous Studio 12 Picknix Vol 1 CD available from Polka Doodles. They are from the All Sewn Up & Welcome Home Collections. Everything was arranged in Craft Artist - i just LOVE this chalkboard it's rather ace! You could of course 3d many of the elements too.
