More fifth avenue floral

A couple more cards made using fifth avenue floral set....

Fifth Avenue Floral

I finally decide to buy the Stampin Up set, Fifth avenue floral...

Absolutely love it!

Here are a couple of cards I have made with it so far...

Scary cards - cuttlebug

Here are a coupld of scary cards made using my cuttlebug.

I saw the spider and bat(2) cut and emboss 3x3 set on trademe, usually $30 and only $10 so I grbbed the bargin thinking I already have the haunted house and spider web embossing folder..

So please i did, I think they turned out well...

I have to admit though that the spider card is still creeping me out! I can image sending it to someone and them dropping it when they open it - ummmm who do I want to scare????

More easter cards

Here are a couple more easter cards.... I still think the little chicken is the best......

Train and houses - SU wheel with ink cartridge

I finally got around to trying out the black ink cartridges I bought for the Stampin Up wheel stamps... It works so well I wish I had more colours!


The first card is the train on the inside full of presents....



















The second is the truck with houses on the inside....



They were a lot of fun to make.

A Wish for you

This is a cute little set that I just got for a great price off trademe....

MOJO126

Here is my mojo challenge for this week, again there are two cards, one stamped and one cuttlebugged! If you are wondering what that is on the top of the train, it's a candle!

Brayer - upsy daisy

I thought I'd give this brayer technique another try tonight. This is a design by Zindorf, she makes amazing cards... I followed her instructions which can be found on her blog and also on splitcoast stampers website.

I still need alot of practice, I can't seem to brayer properly, maybe I use too much ink??

Photo Calendars 2010

And another couple of designed added tonight....

Last year I made lots of calendars, which surprisingly sold very well.... I didn't make any for this year as I didn't have time, however, a couple of ladies at work have been asking for them. So here are 3 I made tonight. I decided not to do the stand up ones this time and have tried 3 other options.
My favourite is the one with the star paperclip.




This one would need to be pinned up on a wall and hangs with two months showing.....




This is my least favourite but good to hang up and pick up to use....

More Easter Cards - Pop-out bunny 3D card

Here is another easter creation, I kept the front of the card plain as the detail is in the inside with the pop -out frame (3D) and the bunny peeker.

















And another one for a lady at work, she specifically wanted pink and blue....

Motorbike card

Another request from a lady at work has kept me very busy tonight, I had no idea how I could make a moterbike birthday card.... but this is what I ended up with.

Unlike the penguins in my previous post, I only had to try this once.

Easter cards

Here are a few easter cards...

The first one I tried with brayering but I haven't got the technique right yet, Zindolf's blog is awesome and I am hoping to learn from here blog, not sure what I am doing wrong but I am not happy with the sky... any suggestions welcomed!







Next is a simple easter egg..






















And then the cutest little chicken (my favourite)!













And lastly another egg.....

Valentines cards

I have made these two cards for a couple of ladies at work. I hope they will enjoy giving them to their husbands for valentines day...

The first is for a lady whose husband has a boat called Mrs Frost...




The second is for a lady whose husband drives a taxi....

Church wedding card

Here is a very plain and simple wedding card, using the church from the silent night set...
