Stampin Up Bookmark Card


Here is a bookmark card, trying something different....
The bookmark is attacked on the inside with removable tape (not shown in picture).

I used the lovely Beautiful Season stampset, blender pen and crayons for colouring... stamp-a-ma-jig for layering in correct place. .... next time I might frame the bookmark to make it standout more... ok for a first attempt though.

Coolest cricut cards!







Firstly a forever young card based on a design in one of the cricut magazines, next a cute birthday dog from birthday bash, super bird from 3 birds on parade, and the snail from birthday bash. Don't you just love the word stamps! So cool, I got these from america, they are design by the lady who does the pink stamper blogspot, I just love the punny phrases and that they are designed to use with the cricut cartridges.....

Cricut Ten Pin Bowling card


I have a friends birthday coming up next week and he loves ten pin bowling so I have put this creation together using the pin from the Nifty Fifties cartridge and cut 6 (yes should really be 10!) and then cut the ball off all but one (as the ball is part of the image). I cut a strip of card for the lane, cut is with angled end, added stamped texture and drew the arrows on by hand (which don't look so good). I used 3 dimensional stickies for the front pins and added glossy accents to the ball while leaving three finger holes on the ball before the glossy accent dries. Quite pleased with this creation as a first attempt from the picture in my mind...

CRICUT Sweet Treats - YUMMY I want to lick my card!




Here are some more of tonights creations, these made me very hungry and I was so tempted to lick the glossy accent as it makes the chocolate look so real, I have never felt like I wanted to eat my cards before! Yummy!
