Christmas in May

A few weeks ago I won some images from The Stamping Boutique ,this Holly and Ribbon was one of them .I was lucky enough to win 5 images and later this week I will show the others. I printed the music paper and then added the image which was done with water colours.

Hello Kitty

A simple card using a die cut cat ,a sticker border and sentiment (which came from Merry ),buttons ,pearls and a doily.I struggled to find something for the cats eyes and used these nail art flowers which I trimmed down ,the nose is a small heart shaped sticker.

I made this gatefold card but can't remember which challenge it was for - the main image is from Graphic 45 ( there are 12 different fashion images approx 10cm x7cm ),the tag is also Graphic 45. The background paper is a perfect match but isn't part of the Graphic 45 range,the flowers are made from gathered vintage lace.

First an apology - being a blogger doesn't mean that you are computer savvy or know your blog inside out -I had no idea my word verification was ON until a kind person mentioned it. Sorry folks ,it's now switched off.

I will be back later with details of paper etc as I'm just off to look at a house.Well I'm back with the details - background paper is double sided 'Botanicabella' from Graphic 45 -the ladies and tag are also from Graphic 45, Times Nouveau -a fab collection of precut tags ,they are just lovely.On Monday I will make another trip to the craft store to look at the whole range from Graphic 45.
