Birthday Card - Wellington Bear

Here is a card that I made for my friend Jacqui as it was her birthday yesterday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACQUI

I coloured Wellington with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain distress ink and a water brush.

Christmas Book Boxes

I will be sorry to part with this box, I enjoyed doing it. I have made 3 in all one is a little girls one, when I have finished it I will post it on the blog.

I used 12x12 white cardstock and scored at 7.5 cm all the way around the card that I was using for the base and then for the lid scored at 7.3 cm all the way around.

I then made the cardstock into boxes and covered.

For the music book I used the-
Glitter Girls Bookatrix board
Flowers I made from the - Sizzix 3d Flowers die
Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers.
Cheery Lynn - Holly Corner die
Cheery Lynn - Lace Light Border die
Papers - First Edition Paper Pad - Christmas Village



3D Shoe 30th Birthday Card

I was asked to make a 30th Girlie Birthday card for a lady and managed to find a shoe template on the web.  It was so easy to make.

I used double sided 12x12 paper to make the shoe.




I made a box for the card as well.

Spooky House

I made this spooky house a while ago from a kit and used the same box templates for the cake boxes as I did on the Baby Shower gift.

Christmas Box Squash Cards

Box Squash cards are all the go at the moment.  They are a little fiddly but once you have made a couple you get into the swing of it.

Memory Box - Snowflake Ornament die
Memory Box - Winterland Tree die
Memory Box - Delicate Chain die

Poinsettia Hanging Card

This idea was from a Craft Stall at Alexandra Palace in September.  I thought that it was a great keepsake for people that you don't give a gift to but send a card.  I made a box with a simple card in it and decorated the box then put in the hanging decoration.

Christmas Hanging Decoration

Thought that I would make decorations for the house this year here is one to be going on with.

I have used Spellbinders Lace Doily Motifs and Spellbinders Poinsettia.  The diamonte pearl in the centre is from Oyster Stamps Say it in Crystals.

Baby Shower Cake

Using a Wendy Stenton Template I made a Baby Shower Cake for my Niece who is expecting in November.  Very easy to make.
I used papers from Crafters Companion CD (Peter Rabbit and Bad Mice)

Halloween Magic Book

This is the Magic Book that was raffled at the last Crop and was won by Karen Austin
This was made by making a concertina based book with cover and Tim Holtz Tattered Flower Die.
The hat was just a cone stuck to a black circle.

Scrapbook Angels Crop

The next Crop at Lenham & Charing Heath Village Hall will be on Saturday 3rd November 2012
For the crafters that have not booked and would like too please contact me.  We have a really fun day with plenty of lovely food (essential for crafters), a class for those who wish to partake, a raffle and prizes to be won.  This will be the last crop for this year however it will start again on Saturday 3rd February 2013.

For the February Crop there will be a challenge for those who wish to enter.  I will announce this in November, so that there is plenty of time for creativity over the long cold Winter evenings in January.
