A Polar Bear Card

 
Good morning, just a very quick post today as am off out to see some friends and indulge in coffee and cake :)

A Three Panel Card

 
 
Good evening, just popped by to share my project for 'Little Claire Likes' today.
 
I have made a three panelled card using the gorgeous stamp set - 'Freedom'.
 
It has to be my favourite of all of the stamps from LC, I never get bored stamping up the elements and colouring them in.
 
Here is the first panel of my card.  I have used lots of the glorious kraft card, Promarkers, pearls and of course, my favourite dotty ribbon.

 
I so love the two-part sentiment that comes with the set.


Here is the lovely butterfly cage from the set, such a lovely image!
 

 
The last page and final part of the sentiment, just beautiful!
 
You can purchase this wonderful set of stamps at the special sale price of £5.00 (normally £8.99), whilst stocks last.  If you want to treat yourself to this set, pop over HERE.
 
Off to enjoy the rain at last and make some Christmas cards, have a great evening!
 
hugs

A Christmas House

Good Monday to you,
 
Here is a little Christmas card I have made for the 'Little Claire Likes' project over on the blog today.
 
I have used the lovely 'Christmas House' stamp, some black and white card and silver embossing powder.
 
 
You can get this stamp HERE at a special price.  It is great to just stamp and emboss or if you love to colour in like myself, great for that too.
 
Off to lie down in a dark room and hopefully cool down, as this heat is beginning to get to me somewhat.
 
Thanks for popping by today,
 
Heidi

Vintage Hobby Art Book Card

 
Good evening, am sharing my first blog project for Hobby Art.  I have made another book card (have made a few of these recently lol) using the fabulous 'Vintage' and 'Butterflies' stamp sets which can be purchased HERE.
 
 
Here is the frame inside the book card, I have added a little glass bottle full of lace to finish off my card.
 
 
I have been asked by lots of bloggers to give a tutorial.  So the measurements and instructions on how my book card was made, are on the new Hobby Art Blog here.
 
Don't forget to join the wonderful Jenny on Create & Craft this Thursday - 12pm & 2pm!

It's a Pleasure Card

 
Good Monday morning, hoping all you bloggers out there are well today?
 
I am totally shattered after teaching for two days at the Little Claire workshops last weekend. A great time was had by all including my youngest, Georgia who came along to help and ended up teaching some shrink plastic! Think she has just a little bit of crafting in her blood lol!
 
Anyway, this gorgeous little image is a new Silhouette stamp from Little Claire and can be snapped up HERE and full product details and instructions on my card, can be found HERE on the blog.
 
Am hoping Georgia will stay awake at school today and want to wish my middle daughter Jess, a great first day on her work placement and my eldest Amy, good luck in her new job!
 
Am off to do some housework today and then am meeting family and a friend for some catch up time, of course over lots of Costa coffee lol!
 
Have a wonderful day!
