ATC's

Hello

Well, I’ve been AWOL and don’t know why, I seem to be losing track of days and doing a few extra days at work hasn’t helped, how will I manage when things are supposed to return to normal!

 

So, I’d like to share some ATC’s with you, made using a variety ot themes and  products.

ATC's

Hello

 

I’ve remembered!

Roof is still work in progress, weather hasn't been great to be up on a roof, they worked Sunday and got drenched but should be finished next week.

I have some ATC's to share with you today.

These have been made for a direct swap; we take it in turns to pick a theme and these were the first three months.

A variety of techniques used, lots of distress inks and Lavinia stamps on the first, zig real Colour and Stamps from a mag on the second and papers for the third with Hero Arts stamps.

 Hello

Sharing  some ATC's I've made for swap on Facebook. 

I always find them challenging but I really enjoyed the Halloween ones, I even doodled the pumpkins...go me..!

Thanks for stopping by!

MDF

Hello 

I thought I'd do my post before I forget again, week two starts tomorrow...lol

I created some backgrounds using lavinia stamps and a mixture of distress ink and oxides and some versafine clair inks. 

I them attached them to some MDF boards front and back so you can have a different view. 

I'm never sure with the white pen hi-lights, I either do to many or not enough and feel it doesn't work but this looks OK for a change.

The top two (front and back)  I sent over the pond to my good friend Lis.

As always thanks for your visit x

New Home

Hi All

I needed to make a new home card, my husbands son and his girlfriend are moving in together.

So I got my inks and fairies out.

 I got a bit carried away and made two. 

Lavinia stamps, Distress Inks and Oxides.

Thanks for your visist!

Hello All

How are you doing?

One of my crafty friends stamped this image for us all at craft class so we could have a play and so I thought I'd turn it to a card for her birthday.

Glad to say she liked it.

The stamps are Lavinia and the background is Brushos. 

Personally I think it's a bit of a weird stamp...lol

Thanks for dropping by really do appreciate it x

ATCoins

Hello All

I'm sharing some ATCoins, seen them on Hochanda and wanted to try them out.

Here is what I came up with, I found them more challenging than the traditional ATC.

The first one was using Lavinia stamps, the background created with Oxides.

Mounted on to MDF.

These were using some free stamps and Brushos.

Friends

Hello All

Sharing a couple of cards for a brother and sister with birthdays in January.

You know I hate male cards especial teens...lol so I had to look on Pinterest for some inspiration and used some SU stamps that have never been used (so bad)

The female was easier just used a Lavinia fairy.

Distress inks and stamps as mentioned above.

Thanks for visiting!

Happy New Year

Hello All

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!

My first card for 2019 is for my friend at work, I've just got her in to crafting, we visited the NEC back in November and we did a Lavinia make and take, she loved it.

So I thought I'd make her a fairy card in her favourite colours.

Lavinia stamps, Claire inks and distress inks.

And some more lovely goodies from Lavinia that I had for Christmas!

Thanks for visiting x

Fairies

Hello All

Just sharing a few fairy cards I've made.

 I masked off to create the strip and sprinkled the brushos on. Then stamped my images and used distress inks around the images.

A mixture of Lavinia and Inkylicious stamps.

As always thanks for your visit, it is much appreciated.

New Home

Hello All

The last half of this year has been really busy for new home cards, I've never made so many.

The first two are for nieces on both sides but I can now see that the red one is slightly wonky didn't look that bad in the flesh...lol

The third one was for our new neighbours who moved in the weekend, I used a new stamp by Lavinia that I picked up at the NEC.

I enjoyed the NEC this year but that might be because it didn't seem so busy but then at £16 for parking what do they expect and one of the exhibitors told me it might be going up to £20 which is really unbelievable! 

A friend  who'd never been before came along, she's only just getting in to crafting and she loved it, she was like a shaken bottle of pop...lol

Thank you all for you kind words regarding Frankie, I really appreciate it.

As always thanks for your visit x

Fairies

Hello

I see we are back to our normal lovely weather...lol

Just sharing some fairy cards I've made for my nieces over the last few months. I used a selection of stamps, with some inking and JND plates to create the backgrounds.
