Birthdays Again.....

Hi all - This is another of those 'catch-up with blogging' posts LOL

This is also another of the Mojo Monday sketches which was a sketch for a square card. I have used the sketch and then stuck it onto a normal sized base card.

At the time I made a couple of these to catch up on some very belated birthdays... sorry ladies :}

And ANOTHER 40th......

Hi all - I seem to be making a LOT of 40th cards this year! Must have a lot of younger friends - one way of staying younger LOL..... And I have another one this month also.....

This was made for a teacher at the school I am working at. It is made using a Mojo Monday sketch (I think.... no, no, I am sure....) - another one that I made a little while ago.... LOL. Stay tuned as I do have a few to catch up on with my bad blogging reputation and all :)

Workshops...

Hi all - I can't believe it!!! {actually I can LOL} These are the cards from my March workshops - I had put the photos in but hadn't came back to finish off - have just found them in the 'Edit Posts' section......

We didn't actually have workshops that month as the weekend they were supposed to be on was the weekend the cyclone hit near us. But I had made the kits up and so gave the girls the option to still purchase the kits. Some asked why I didn't leave them till the next month but since they were Easter cards, Easter was going to be over by the next time.

With the first card I just wanted to show the girls how to make a Sweet Cups card (with 'door' of course....)
Then this card was a slight case from the last mini catalogue.....
And this basket was a template from the Scor-Pal website.....

Birthdays....

Hi all - Have had a WONDERFUL weekend!!!!! Had my oldest friend, whom I haven't seen for approx. three years, come with her family for a quick visit. It was only quick but it was SO good to catch up again! Hopefully it's not another three years before we see each other again.....

Ok..... Here is a card I made for a good friend's birthday a little way back. It is almost a complete case from a card in the current mini catalogue. I really love the card and wanted to have a go at it.

May Workshop Creations.....

Hi all - just a very short post to quickly show what we made at last weekend's workshops. This month's theme was children's cards.

The first card we made was for a little girl and I have cased it from a card in the new mini catalogue. I have made some minor changes plus have added some beautiful Fine Supernova glitter to make my pony shine.

Then we made a De-Coder card for the boys - Instructions for a De-Coder card can be found here at SCS.
Then we made this gorgeous little gift bag using the beautiful Melon Mambo CS and ribbon. I got the template for this from KaiserCraft.

Sorry - very short and sweet.

Catch ya!

A 40th.....

Hi all - remember me??? My usual greeting these days LOL - Anyway let's not get caught up on the little things LOL!!! Here is the card that I made for my younger sister's birthday in April. I wanted it to be really, really pretty. And these colours are so girly aren't they? I also wanted some glitter as I am not using it as I used to (does everyone else go though fazes like I do? - I used to use VersaMark on EVERY single card and now I use it on none!!!) Anyway back to what I was saying.... I have put glitter around the '40' to make it look like a tag. (But I don't remember what I did.....???? - It looks pink so I must have punched a pink ring first and glued that on and then put glitter on that...???) Old age...... of all the things I miss, I miss my mind the most LOL!!!

Birthday Card....

Hi all - Here is a card I made early February...... It was for a friend's daughter's 12th birthday. It was for a sketch challenge (I remember that much LOL) but I don't remember which one (and it may have been an old sketch also) Too much happening and time flying by too quickly.......

I really liked the bright colours of this DSP and am always so disappointed each year when they retire or they are nly in a mini for such a short time :(
