Circus time.....

Good morning,  Today I have a new DT card to share I am lucky enough to 

join the ladies over at Creative Creations!

Today's challenge is......

 Shaped Cards

Here is mine using the cheerful clown by Paper Nest Dolls who are sponsoring us this week 

and yes I finally dusted off my Cameo to cut this shaped card.

I have even cut out the balloons on my cameo and coloured with Pro-markers 

to save on cutting out little bits of different coloured card

Hope you can join in with us this week and pop on over to the challenge blog

 to see the new DT members lovely creations

Dolled up and no image in sight......

Hello crafters, Tuesday is here once again and yes I have another simple card to share for Clare Curds Crafts....

I wish there were more hours in the day where I could make some really pretty projects but life is hectic to have time to create at present but I really do hope you like seeing my simple but bright and colourful cards :)

So here is my card for today, I've challenged myself to make a card without an image but have used some lovely papers and embellishments......

I have used My Minds Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up Papers, 

which I love as they are so cheerful

and I have tried to use lots of embellishments as that's what my DT post is,

hope this is ok, hehe.....

I have used some of Clare's lovely flowers as a little bouquet

CLARE CURD CRAFTS! PERFECT PAPER FLOWERS 

Some ribbon and lace and the 

stamped sentiment set called punchable labels

which is fab for a quick sentiment

Have a good day!

Summer Days.....

Tuesday is here once again and still haven't got around to creating loads and blog commenting.....

I do have a card to share for Clare Curd Crafts so thats a good thing,
I think, I'm heading in the right direction.....

 I have some more fab papers, a stamp set and embellishments to share

So here is my card for today something a little summery, bright and cheerful.

I have used Summer Days 6x6 paper pack by Prima, 

this is a really lovely stack of papers, with lots of flowers, 

birds and swirly summer writing and squigles

I have stamped the tree and bird in 3 parts using 

Marion Emberson Build a Tree Stamp Set

Could not resist adding some Clare Curd Crafts Perfect Paper Flowers too

And I've made a little crochet bow, 

but thinking now I should have turned it into a butterfly....

Hope you like my summery card,

Have a good day!

Boy Crazy.....

Morning, I am really bad at blogging it is really shocking, really need to get my act together and get back into the swing of it, I need a right shake up!!!!!!

But........ It's Tuesday's embellishment inspiration.... 

I have been playing with papers and buttons for today's share all from Clare's shop 

and could not resist something bright and cheerful for a boy card.

I have used some fab boy paper called Boy Crazy by My Minds Eye, 

Clare also has some stamps and stickers that co-ordinate with these papers

I have also added some embellishments and tried not to 

make it too girly by adding some buttons these are also 

from the shop and some dotty ribbon

In the paper pack there are some sentiment panels

 which I have cut out and layered

and I've cut out some little pictures out of the paper sheets

and used 3d sticky squares to add dimension

Hope you like today's simple and colourful card!
