back from my hols and back to cardmaking with a vengance!

The first one was a challenge card I did, but didn't enter it because I was co organising it. A handbag card....A download from the clipart fairy. She makes fantastic cards!
Another order for a concorde enthusiast


And a wedding card for good friends of mine. Sad story here.........he's just been diognosed with both lung and stomach cancer, so his time here is limited. As they've been together for 17 years they've decided to tie the knot. Good luck to them both.......They are both very positive, and are taking a day at a time!


I love this card....... both the lady and the letters are more downloads from the clipart fairy.

Another of Wendy's downloads (The clipartfairy}

Her downloads are wonderful. Once you have done one they are so easy to do.

I'm going on my hols tomorrow...Yippee......and I know one of my friends had asked me to make a card for when her daughter has her baby. She has been told it's a boy but she is unsure of the name (she thinks it may be Rossi after the footballer)............but she didn't want to take the chance in case they changed their minds

Getting back to the card, you can find the downloads here

The shoe at the bottom was taken from a Kizzy Dizzy download and matched this card spot on! Even down to the spots and stripes!

I know, know we've all done it!!

I had finished this card, topper, flowers....the works. Went to put the insert in, and................Had made it upside down!!..............So...........got it in the guillotine, cut it down and taped it on the front of another card. It's just annoying as I was trying to make it quick as we are going away at the weekend for a week and someone had asked for it.

My first ever entry to a blog challenge

Another of Wendy's downloads (The clipartfairy}

As soon as this was posted on her site I bought it (and a few others) there is so much you can do with them. This is the original colour, but it can be changed using the Hue & Sat slider. This was stretched a little so it would be an A5 card. I cut a piece of A3 card lengthwise. Next time though, I will print the pattern on the back of the doors. It will look better!

I'm in love

With this download..............It makes such a beautiful wedding card and the image of the bride and groom from Sarah Kaye goes with the colour so well.
I've altered the colour slightly on this one just to be a bit different also used white flowers instead of cream. And the box to go with it!
