Inking It Up.

I treated myself to this lovely Penny Black Slapstick stamp the other week, really with my Mum in mind as she loves Amaryllis. Anyway, I couldn't wait till my Mum's birthday to use it so needing a card for a crafty friend was a perfect excuse to ink it up and get out the Copics. I can't resist fussy cutting at the mo so with a bit of die cutting,embossing and a touch of ink, the card was complete.





 

 The hard part was trying to get a photo taken that did the card justice. The fancy frame was cut using two dies and using my ball tool to emboss at each cut.

Eye's Down For A Full House!

Morning all,Ladybug Catherine's turn to choose a theme for this fortnight's TLT challenge, think she had a girlie night out on her mind as she chose to give us all a game of bingo!

Appologies that I've not got a copy of the Bingo board, I seemed to miss bits out so just take a look at the TLT blog there's bound to be a complete one there.

 

 

There's some great news to go along with the challenge too.

Nikki's gone digital,

I'm loving this, it means I can make them big and less fiddly to cut out, my eyes aren't as good as they used to be lol!
My image here is "Unwell Nikki", a bargain at only £1.75
 

I chose the bingo line:- top Left To Bottom Right, that's a die cut, stitching, and lace. I'm hoping Catherine doesn't mind that my stitching is the inky kind.





 

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

C4E3, Anything goes,
Bearly Mine 54, Add a sentiment,
DT179, Say it with flowers/digi,

Off Cuts And Paper Squares.

It seems like I've spent the last couple of days making a card, you know how it is at times, you keep cutting shapes, trying out different, shapes, colours,sizes....... before you know it, you can't find any dies as they are hidden under a huge pile of leftovers.

Anyway, this is what I came up with using up a lot of the pile, even the butterflies were ready stamped and coloured, part of a one layer experiment that went a bit wrong, they looked rubbish on the other card but how fab they look now they've been given their wings :) The numbers were cut using offcuts and Plantins Schoolbook.

It was one of the quickest cards I've made in a while, the most time consuming bit was removing the little squares from the backs of  the foam pads. (don't those pesky things turn up everywhere lol!)

 

 

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

 

4 Crafty Chicks, Leaves,

Charisma Cards 37, Wings,

Delightful Challenges, Distressed,

In The Pink 4, Embossing,

LMM44, Not Square,

TTT, Shaped,

Simply Quick Anniversary Card

I can't believe how quick the weekend has flown by, is it just me or do you too find that the older you get, the faster the days fly past? I find it hard to believe that a year ago yesterday my lovely friend was married, in fact I only just remembered in time so had to make a super quick anniversary card.

I know I used the same shape for the card in my last post but I just love this set of Xcut dies, they make a lovely small card blank. I'm sure you can see what else was involved here,just a bit of embossing, inking, punching and a little scrim. I thought that a sentiment on the front just wasn't needed so just stamped Happy Anniversary on the inside instead.

C4E3, Anything goes,
