Upcycled Flocked Wallpaper Card

A very cheap card to make!

A Sample of Flock Wallpaper was used on this card. I cut around one of the flowers and stuck it onto a card blank, added a few gems to the centre!

I've seen cards like this in  some shops for stupidly high prices. This card cost only a few pennies!

Best Wished Flower Card

Another card using free papers from a Card making magazine.

The swirl is a sticker from DCWV Tiffany collection and the flower was also from a pack of DCWV fabric flowers.
The Best Wishes topper was made by myself in Inkscape

Thats it for a While, A change is coming

I'm currently working on some new projects after having a bit of a lost Mojo and not being happy with my style anymore and having a HUGE clearout of my card making stuff. Some of my recent cards havnt been up to my usual standard and its time for new things!

Im going to be doing more hand drawn artwork and more Sillhouette cut cards that I've created from scratch, along with a few more crafty projects such as keyrings and cushions I make along the way.

It's taken a long time to convince my 7 year old that yes, Mummy CAN draw, and Yes, She DID draw this dinosaur all by herself!

Watch over the next couple of weeks for a change!

Butterfly Swirl Card

Another Butterfly card from me

This card was made using some free papers from a Craft magazine that I found when having a clearout. The punched border was done with an EK Success Morrocan edge punch and the butterfly cut using Marianne D Creatables die.
The Swirl was added using stickles and my free Rhinestone template

Unfinished Christmas card?

This card an unfinished piece.

The background paper was from a stack of grunge style papers I found in my craft bag, I dont know who made them.
I matted it onto red cardstock and added some ribbon and green velvet ric rac.

It needs "something" else added to it, im still working on it.

Handmade Buttons

I love Buttons and have always want to make my own but have been unsuccessful finding button blanks. Until now.
These buttons measure 23mm across and are made using some small pieces of pink fabric and white lace.

Buttons are SO quick and easy to make, your imagination is your only limit.
