the last card of the weekend


My last card of this weekend. Again using the gorgeous Cosmo Cricket papers. Prima flowers and SU saying stamp and punches.

Found the perfect match



IMO I think I have found the perfect matching card to go with Cosmo Cricket Early Bird papers. I was flicking through my collection of Stamping Up card stock and found the perfect blue in the soft subtle pack. I used the flipside of the Farmers Market paper, added a SU stamped image coloured with copics and topped the card off with a few buttons.

Because it feels as though its winter ........





You would never know we are in the Summer months its been so chilly. To celebrate the cold weather I made two Christmas cards using a whiff of joy stamp I bought from the Hobby House last week. I popped in to watch the wonderful Bev Rochester demonstrating. Materials used:
Blue card:
Sweetwater paper, 2 x Martha stewart punches, copic pens and to add a bit of sparkle stickles
For the red card again coloured with copic pens Martha Stewart punches and Basic Grey paper.

Something Gorjuss



I just love the Early Bird papers by Cosmo Cricket. I used Cherry pie which are my favourite colour combos. The stamped Gorjuss image was coloured using copic pens, using BG34 BG 23 and BG 15 for the dress. The sentiment is a SU hostess level one set which Monica kindly lent to me when we attended Maddy's copic workshop recently. SU punches were also used . A little cherry charm and bit of ribbon was added to glam it up a bit. As time goes on I hopefully will get better at colout=ring with copics, well they do say practice makes perfect, looks like a lot of practice is required in my case.

Clean and Simple 15


This weeks clean and simple challenge on splitcoasters was to make a card that will have only black, white, and any one choice in the Stampin' Up bold brights collection. I chose to use
Gable green from SU Bold Brights.
I cut the tree on the cricut and punched leaves with a heart punch and sprinkled with doodlebug glitter.

2 sketches 4 you bee happee



Here is my take on sketch 26 at the 2 sketches 4 you blog. Again a great sketch. I used a very and I mean very old bee stamp that I have had for ages collecting dust. This layered it has stickles for its wings and wire for it antennaes (sp?)
