Lucas Word book

Hello, I made this word book ages ago for a friends little boy and then forgot about it. I have finally got around to putting the holes in the side and adding some book rings and ribbons. I thought my friend could add her own photos of her little boys christening day.

Handbag Easel

Good Afternoon, I have made this card for a friend's friend who loves handbags. I took me a while to figure out how I was going to make it but now it's finished I am really pleased with it. I had the handbag image from theclipartfairy.com. I then altered the size in my craft studio, printed the front and back of the bag, cut out the piece for the handle and stuck them together. I then folded ny square card to make the base of an easel card, drew around my handbag and cut the easel base to the same shape as the handbag. I then stuck the handbag to it, decorated the bag and matted and layered a couple of different coloured cards to stick my stopper on to (which I made from a couple of borders stuck on top of one another and added a bit of text). Perfect for all those girlies that love handbags. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday xx

Easel Wedding Card

Hello - well you can tell I'm not getting much housework done this weekend can't you - I'm back again. I have now finished off all the cards I need for this month so I can start on all the goodies for my stall. I got the easel card above as a download from http://theclipartfairy.com. I think it's a really nice idea and you can make it as simple or fancy as you like.

New Baby

Good Morning, hope everyone is well, it's a bit of a rainy day here looking out of my little craft room. I have made this card for a friend's friend who has had a baby. I have got one wedding card to make and then I can start on my christmas cards and little gifts that I am going to make for a stall that I am going to do in November for the local hospice. I feel a bit tired to today - late night last night (11pm - which is very late for me) my clubbing days are definately over, gone are the times when I could stay out past 2am three night in a row !!!!

Have a lovely day

Wedding Card

Hello, I'm having a bit of a mad day, it was my intention to get up extra early and go to a certain sale this morning at 5am, but it got to 4.30 and I decided TC has got enough clothes (don't bother going for myself I find it to much of a nightmare hunting for things) so I stayed in bed until 6 !! Hubby has gone to work and TC and I went off to watch my cousins daughter get married. I took a few pics and then hurried home to get them printed off. However once I had printed the photos could I find the card that I made months ago, I have turned the house upside down looking (thank goodness I found it) on a brighter note I did manage to find my marriage certificate (missing for at least a year) and the car park passes for work (missing at least 9 months) so every cloud !!!!!!

Enjoy the rest of your day

Good morning

Hopefully my link will work and take you straight there !

Hello, well I finally got my birthday books finished and the Teachers all loved them which I'm really pleased about and the fact they liked them so much made it totally worth all the time it took me.

Today TC took the thank you cards in, sorry for the bad photos (especially the 1st one) - but I took them at 6.30 this morning as I was in a bit of a rush it looked ok when I took it but now it looks like I felt after I had been up half the night unable to get back to sleep after a 2.30am call of nature (I think it's my age !!!). I have to say a huge thank you to Wendy from clipart fairy where I got the 'Just to say thankyou' image from. Thank you Wendy your a treasure as is your website - I spent that long making the books that I didn't leave much time to make the cards so the image I had from Wendy meant that I was able to make the cards really quickly, and I thought for a change if I used the Zutter down the sides I could tie them with ribbon and make them a bit fancy. The easel card was made as a special card as one of TC's teachers has decided to retire and we have known her for a long time. She wouldn't thank me for reminding her but she was doing teacher training when I was at nursery which was in the mid 70's so I think she well deserves a rest !!!!

Anyway better go got a new baby card to make plus an envelope to make for a wedding card !!
