Culinary Claire

Hi Guys, 

Jst a quick post this morning as I have a crazy to do list.

This card follows the sketch over at Papertake weekly and I am entering it into the challenge.

It uses Culinary Claire from The stamping chef and I have used First Edition papers.

The Flowers are from Wild orchid crafts. I have used a mix of Dies and a Martha Stewart punch. The ribbon was from The Range. I have coloured her with Promarkers in some lovely zingy, summery colours.

Thanks so much for looking today,

Love Lou x

Sizzlin' Hot!

Hi,

Even though it's raining (Again) this card is all about the sun. It' Sizzlin hot summer from The scrapbook Stamp society and you can get her HERE.

I have made her for a colleagues 50th birthday as she has had a bikini just like this for her holiday :)

I have coloured her with Promarkers and used First Edition papers.

The blue sparkly cheesecloth represents the sea.

(She makes me want to go to the beach.) The flowers are Wild orchid crafts. I have used a mix of dies and the shells were from Wales when we went on a day trip last month.

Thanks for looking today, Lou x

Chef Ellie

Hi Guys,

I have made this card using a digi from The paper nest called chef Ellie.

The card is pretty simple as it was for an envelope not a box. I have used First Edition Family ties paper and used twine and a button from my stash.

I love how the cherry papers match the cherry on top of her little cake :)

Thanks for looking today,

Summer days

Hi Guys,

Yesterday was gloriously sunny here. (I was making cards though) and today I have to work but still with the sun shining anything seems possible so whatever you do today, Be great!

Today's card has a mix of images. It's got gnome suprise inside from Whimsie doodles and In the garden from Digistamp boutique.

I have coloured them in in bright summery shades of Promarkers.

I have used tons of dies and lots from my stash. The pearls I coloured with markers to match.

Thanks for looking and remember....Be great!!

Hello Summer

Hi Guys,

It's another gloomy day here. It's nearly June and every day is rainy or dull, not good :(

To make me feel more cheery today's card was made using Hello Summer papers frome Echo park.

I have used Wryn- spring bling and coloured her with Promarkers.

I have used lots of dies to cut the ticket (whimsy), felt flowers (Die-namics), stars (Memory box) and heart, flourish and corner (Marianne). I have used flowers from Wild Orchid crafts and pearls (coloured with Promarkers to match) and heart button from stash.

Thanks for looking today,

A special time

Hi Guys,

My card is the second of the adoption cards I have been asked to make. A special little boy is joining my friends family this week and they have been waiting for 2 years to complete the adoption process. What a lucky boy to be joining such a lovely family. He will be cherished.

I have used a Whimsy stamp that I had from ages ago as a freebie. He is no longer free but you can get him Here. I have layered with ivory linen card and Up, up and Away papers from First Edition. I have used buttons from my stash, embossed the middle layer of paper and used a Martha Stewart punch for the edge.

I can't wait to meet the little guy,

The paper is Up and away- first edition, The sentiment is computer generated and the ribbon and gems were from my stash. I have coloured him with Promarkers and I just love him. He is adorable.
