Rosalie's Bicycle

I fell in love with this stamp as soon as I saw it. This card is for my daughter's birthday today.

My efforts this week




This is a 'kickstand' card which is really easy to do. Just thought I would have a try at something different, quite pleased with the results of this one.

Tuesday Craft Club Cards


These are the cards made at last weeks Tuesday Craft Club.
The slider card is really easy to make and make a nice change to the usual style of Christmas cards. The stamp is Penny Black.

Isn't this one cute? I love this stamp, again, another Penny Black stamp. Lots of glitter on this one!
Thanks as always to Andrea for her inspiration

This weeks cards


These are the cards made this week, its almost time for school holidays so I made a couple of thank you cards for grandchildren to give to teachers. I printed the wording on PC using Wordart circular text (8") and then cut into quarters. Penny Black hedgie and cat stamped and coloured with Prisma pencils and Sansador. Used Cuttlebug "Bubbles" folder and Nestabilities circles.


Yellow and blue Tilda coloured using Prisma pencils and Sansador.

Tuesday Craft Club Cards


Cards made at this weeks Craft Club. Both cards made using Michelle Marsden's decoupage sheets. The diamond fold card on the right is made using 1 sheet of A4 card, a different card to the usual style. Photo doesnt do this one justice, hard to take a decent photo of this type of card.
The little card on the left is a small gatefold, again using Michelle Marsden's decoupage sheets (Red Hot Bed).
Thanks as always to Andrea

Christmas in July!!




Well I decided that I would make a start on my Christmas cards and these are the first three. I have coloured all three with Prisma pencils and Sansador, added a snowflake border using the Cuttlebug snowflake folder and added a sprinkle of snow using Stickles. The tag was made using shrink plastic which was great fun!!
