Capt. Locke

I really like Kenny Kay’s digital stamps



This is an 8 x 8 basic cream card stock
I used K & Co backing paper and distressed the edges with a Tim Holtz distressing ink pad
I cut out Cogs in 3 different colours with my Cutle bug and used 1 of Tim Holtz dies
I used a Kenny Kay Digi, she is called Capt. Locke, and coloured her in with Promarkers, cut her out and used 3d pads
I took 2 keys and distressed them with Tim Holtz ink and hung them from 2 chains and hooked them through a brad

Tilda and a bunch of roses

The sketch is from The Deconstructed Challenge Blog

I created an A5 card from white hammered card stock
I cut beautiful paper from  Wild Rose Studio - Butterfly collection into 4 equal sizes and layered them onto white card stock
I layered them onto a cerise pink card

I took cerise organza ribbon and a narrower white organza ribbon and folded them crisscross and 1 in the middle
I made 3 hatpins with beads and added them to a bouquet of small roses and bow with beads
I glued the topper back ground to the main card

I stamped a Magnolia Tilda stamp and coloured her in with Promarkers and used a Spellbinder Scalloped die to cut and embossed it
I took tissue paper and tore it in 2 long strips gathered and glued it to the back of the image to create a frill around the image

Last I added 3 Pearls to the 2 top corners to complete the card

Shopping for Christmas in September


The Sketch I used is this week’s Lilli of the Valley Challenge   
                  
This is A5 card on Plain White Card Stock
I glued a minty limy colour pearl card around the main card
I used 2 different paper stacks’ I layered them all onto rich razzleberry card


I love this stamp from Lilly of the Valley
I used Promarkers to colour her in and I added stickles to the fir of her hat and coat
I used a spellbinder scalloped oval die to cut and embossed my image and distressed the edges with ink
I also cut another plain oval with the minty lime green pearl card and another bigger scalloped out of rich razzleberry card stock
 I gave my topper a bit of dimension by teasing my edges of my card and used 3d pads and layered all the layers
I dotted some stickles all around the rich razzleberry scalloped edge
I used a flower spellbinder die to cut out my flower
I added pearl brads to complete the flowers centers
and added the flowers to the l-hand side of the card

Again with a spellbinder die I cut two layers of card stock and added a Merry Christmas sentiment

Edward Back to School

Hi Bloggers!! I missed you all!! I have taken a couple of weeks off to make some Jewellery with some lovely beads I brought back from South Africa a few years back.  I had so much fun doing it.  I donated some to charity.
Well I am back with Paper Crafting and I had so much fun doing the back to school cards.



I printed some backing papers off and stuck it to my main white stock card
I added a bit of Black card to create the effect of a School Chalk/Black Board and stuck the abc and 123 that I cut out with my Cutle Bug

I used a Magnolia Edward stamp and coloured the image in with my Promarkers and cut it out and added a double layer of 3d pads to create the effect that Edward is sitting on top of the cases
The suitcases are a Digi stamp and again just coloured it in with my Promarkers and cut it out and added 3d pads
