CHNC challenge extra for July


It doesn't seem possible that we are now nearer to Christmas 2016 than 2015. I started my Christmas challenge blogs a few years ago to help to spread the task of making Christmas cards throughout the year - I'm so glad I did and am grateful to all those who enter the challenges sharing their lovely festive crafting. If you haven't started Christmas designs yet, perhaps now is the right time to do so and join in the fun at CHNC challenge extra for July - I'd love to see you there.

For my card I used an unknown piece of paper for the base on this side opening A5 card, wrapping the sentiment ribbon around. The image is Christmas mouse - cocoa, kindly supplied by Bugaboo Stamps, the sponsor of the challenge - a randomly chosen winner will receive $21 worth of digital stamps.

I coloured the image with spectrum noir pens and mounted on to an offcut of pink patterned paper. The doiley shape was rescued and upcycled from an old Christmas card received and some Hobbycraft flowers added.

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper July challenge


This is my card for my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper July challenge. I've used papers and other elements from Trimcraft 'A beautiful life' - one of the paper pads and a few matching extras will be sent to the randomly chosen winner of the challenge. All you have to do to enter is to make something (it needed be a card if you want to make something different) using some patterned paper - and you can enter as many times as you wish.

The image in the wooden frame was stamped using the Hero Arts 'gracious lady', coloured with promarkers. The only thing that isn't from the 'A beautiful life' set is the birthday greeting label from Kanban.

A special golden wedding anniversary


This is a card made for a friend from childhood (we went to secondary school together and enjoyed many a day in each other's company) and her husband to celebrate their golden wedding. I was one of their three bridesmaids and it certainly doesn't seem like 50 years ago! I managed to find a photo of the bride and groom that I printed out and put within the green and gold Kanban frame, using a matching frame at the back so that there wouldn't be any odd pieces showing. I swiped the fancy edge of the upper part of the easel with versamark, applying ' pirate gold' embossing powder before heating. I've had the green flowery card for a long while, waiting for the right occasion to use it and the inside of the easel is covered with sentiment paper repeating 'Happy Anniversary'. The white Hobbycraft flowers were daubed here and there with sparkle medium cinnamon and champagne. Glitter strips and lace added to top and bottom.

I chose the green, yellow and gold theme as us bridesmaids were dressed in green and yellow, although a different colour green to that I used here.

Sorry that the photos aren't as bright as the card actually is ... I needed to get it into the post, so had to settle for these photos.

Tear it to pieces re-visited


I needed to make a quick personalised card, so I looked in my box and found one that I made and showed here.


I printed the greeting and stuck over the original panel and added the Hobbycraft flowers and the numerals.

90th birthday


This card was for one of John's blind bowling club. I used a photo of the Danson Park bowls green where they play in the summer. The bowler was stamped, coloured with spectrum noir and then cut on my Scan n Cut.

In sympathy


I love these lilies - used to use them a lot and know that they were appreciated by recipients, but it's a while since I've used them.

CHNC challenge 287: use a sentiment


This is my card for CHNC challenge 287: use a sentiment. Can you believe that it will be Christmas Day in six months' time ... so, if you haven't made a start on Christmas crafting, now might be a good
opportunity to join in my challenge.

For my card I used three different Christmas digital papers kindly supplied by one of the sponsors of the challenge, Lozzy (available in her Etsy shop), with two lovely snowmen characters that I found here.

Wedding day


This is a commissioned wedding card, using some background paper that was cut from a 12 x 12 scrapbook paper (no idea of the company, have had this for a long time, waiting for occasion to use it).

The sentiment was printed out and cut with a todo decorative oval and a bigger oval cut from some matt gold card. Glittered organza ribbon was wrapped around a piece of gold glitter card, with some padded hearts added. The white flower was from Hobbycraft and the bride and groom die cut was in a set I bought too many years ago to remember.

Happy birthday


This is a very similar card to the one I showed before this ... I remembered that one and thought it would be a good format for another man's card. This time I tore a piece of the Kanban sentiment cardstock, adding the stamped docrafts stamp inked with memento rich cocoa, the Kanban best wishes oval and then the felt circles with buttons in the middle - and stitching on one of them - these were given to me a long time ago.

Happy birthday,Son


This is the card I made for Paul for his birthday (a while ago now, but not blogged at the time, so I thought I'd show it now).

The sentiment cardstock used for the card originally came from Kanban via QVC some time ago. I used one of the Die-namics fishtail flag dies for the banner. The Happy Birthday was stamped with a Docrafts stamp inked with stazon midnight blue.

The glory of Christmas challenge 87


This is my design card for the Glory of Christmas challenge 87: stars. Please click on the link to see the lovely scenes created by others in the team and we would love you to join in the challenge - if you don't fancy including stars in your design you can always enter with anything as long as it's Christmas.

I used some lovely stitched paper (almost like material) that I've had for years (just waiting for the right time to use up the rest of it) - as well as stitching it has stars on it. The centre piece was cut from an old card received and I punched and added some stars out of a matt silver card offcut.

CHNC challenge 286: cute or anything goes as long as it's Christmas


This is my card for my CHNC challenge 286 - more details about the challenge if you click on the link - would love to see your Christmas crafting there.

I've cheated a bit today because the theme for every third Saturday is 'cute', but I've added 'anything goes as long as it's Christmas' for this week because I wanted to use the lovely Christmas scene 1 image kindly supplied by Robyn's Fetish as one of the sponsors of this challenge

I coloured the printed image with spectrum noir pens and cut out the shape with a henna frame Todo die, cut on the Todo and edged with a pen. The background is an upcycled card, cut a bit at the corners. The card originally had a nativity scene on it, hence the edges surrounding part of the die cut, with the addition of two Hobbycraft flowers.


O come let us adore Him

CHNC challenge extra for June mid-month inspiration


It's hard to believe that we are already almost halfway through June and at the end of the month we will be halfway through this year. It's time for some mid-month inspiration on my CHNC challenge extra blog - please click here to see the lovely designs made by some of the team, including my two quick cards that I'm showing here.

The papers are from an old Basic Grey pad with some torn scraps from fancy pants winter wonderland. I found some lovely glittered toppers and sentiment pieces in my Christmas stash - can't remember where they came from, but I like them. Unfortunately, the glittered parts don't show up here - the sentiment script is glittered, as are the stars and the archway over the nativity scene.

Red roses for a lovely wife


I was commissioned to make this card, with the request for some gold and also red roses. I used the digital corner rose four times, turning to create a continuous design, adding the sentiment labels in the middle and at the bottom raised up with foam. The roses to the left and right of the sentiment were created by using three stamps on top of one another to create the dimension of the rose (stamps were free with a magazine), using three different colours - the one on the right is actually the same as the one on the left ... just the trick of the camera flash ... and the two sentiment panels are gold foiled to match the mirror card layer, although here they don't look gold.

For this card I used The Stamping Boutique cupcake, colouring with spectrum noir pens.

Now that summer's here ...


Now that summer's here (well, actually it's raining atm ....) it's time to show a couple of seaside cards that I made a long time ago, but didn't blog, featuring some holographic wavy sea paper, some chunky glittery gold beaches and some foam die cuts, as well as sentiments created on my dymo letratag label maker - everything mounted on to pale blue card blanks.
