A Card for my DC Friend, Ginny

MATERIALS:

• Square White Card Blank
• Rymans White Coated Card
• FF Rubber Stamp
• Sentiment Stamp
• Daisy Stamps (Dawn Bibby)
• Promarkers
• Lime Organza Ribbon
• Black Card Stock

I wanted to make a card to say Thank you and Thinking of you for my DC friend, Ginny who very kindly sent me some of her (much sought after) Poundland flowers. Ginny and I correspond and support one another. It was a good day when I found Ginny as she is always there to lend me a shoulder. I hope she likes her card!

A Card for Harriet

MATERIALS:

• Square black card blank
• Backing paper (Pink Petticoat)
• Anya Rubber Stamp
• Sentiment Stamp (free with QCME mag)
• Promarkers
• Ribbon and charm

I made this card for my Great Niece, Harriet who is 13 today. I used my new MS punches (QVC) to edge the papers. I am not mad about Anya stamps and was toying with selling mine but after using her on this card I think I might have changed my mind!

HAPPY EASTER MIA

Materials:

Square white card blank
Rabbit Stamp (free with Quick Cards Made Easy - March 2010)
Happy Easter Sentiment Stamp (also free with QCME)
Flower Stamp (Studio g)
Rymans white coated card
Pink backing paper
Promarkers

I made this card quickly and inexpensively for my Daughters Goddaughter, Mia. I really like the rabbit stamp that was free with my subscription magazine, Quick Cards Made Easy and I created my own backing paper using a flower stamp that I won in the Pass It Forward Draw over on DoCrafts (thanks RedRottie).

Feeling Poorly!

No cards to add yet folks but I hope to remedy that ASAP. I'm a bit off colour and have an ear ache so haven't really had a constructive crafty weekend although I have a list as long as my arm!!!!!
I went to Lincoln on Saturday in search of the bargain papers at The Works and they haven't got any as well as Nottingham, it's turning into a wild goose chase (just like the pounland flowers) and so I am giving up before I become obsessed again!!!

I did try to start my marathan craft room tidy today but gave up after half an hour, my mojo has taken a hike!!!! I managed to cover two baked bean tins in pretty paper though so thats a start! (I am being brave and putting a pic of my CR on in its untidy state so that I can keep you updated as I transform it into a crafty Haven!!!)

First Post

I thought I'd better stop playing around with the layout and trying to phathom this blogging thingy and write a few words!

I'm a little unhappy today as I have a huge coldsore growing on my lip!!!!! It looks gross and hurts like hell and feels gigantic so there's nothing for it than to stay in my craftroom until it heals (great excuse).

I have just heard from a member on DCs that 'THE WORKS' are selling Crafters Companion envelope paper pack for £1.99 ( RRP: £19.99) that has to be BARGAIN OF THE DAY. I've got Rebecca on the case for tomorrow as I love love this paper, its great for embossing.

Well, thats me for tonight, me and my friend are off to bed (not a tall dark handsome man but just my ugly, painful coldsore!!!!!!).
