More Than Words Mini  Challenge

My Design Team reveal for the  January Challenge

"WISH"

Hello and welcome to my blog.

I am really enjoying creating cards for the mini  MTW challenges.

They are in my pile when a family member or friend has a birthday, or for any occasion. 

I love the idea of giving a hand made card.

This months word is "WISH".  

 A wonderful challenge to enter and a great prize is up for grabs. We would love you to play along.
Simply use the word "WISH" on a card, tag, ATC or  you can now create a postcard. 

Share on our Facebook page by 31st January.

Created on Kraft. I used  a 6x6  TCW dot stencil and white paint to create the spotty background.

I stamped a Kraft tag and roughly painted around the edges. Old flowers from my stash, Prima, Dlish, and Kaiserkraft. A bit of gauze tucked into the cluster. 2Crafty Chipboard  "Best Wishes", simply inked, perfect for adding to a card.  And its done!

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by. I enjoy reading all your lovely comments.

Have a great day!

"Birthday & Tags"

A big welcome to my blog for 2018.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year.

{Happy Birthday}

This is my take on the new challenge at More Than Words Challenges.

I have decided to scrap an A4 size layout this month similar to an Art Journal page size. 

I love creating on this size so you may see lots  more of them  throughout the year.

 Gorgeous graphics and an awesome challenge to start 2018

. The  word inspiration is "Birthday" and the creative challenge is "Tags" put at least 2 on it!

I covered the tag with black &white polka dot paper, placed a flair on it and some twine to help slide it in an out as it had a bit of journaling on it.

  A close up of the photo I cut out, the Mickey Mouse template and the "Happy Times" flair on a tag

 Showing another tag  covered in paper and washi tape. and I used word strips to add some journaling.

Another tag!

Thank you so much for stopping by. I love reading you lovely comments.

My Design Team reveal for the January Kraft+ Challenge

Hello my Krafty friends!

Welcome to my blog for another year of creating and krafting.

This month I have made a card for the challenge at Kraft+

I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Tea Dye Distress Inks. Added some torn Calico and patterned paper for another layer and added some stitching for texture. The cup and saucer were cut from my Mum's Circuit,  I coloured it with more distress inks. I cut the 2 pieces of ribbon and soaked them both in a cup of cold coffee,  dried them with my heat gun and adhered to the card.

I do enjoy  a lovely cuppa with my friends...Green Tea does the trick for me.

Lots of treasured memories  spent with friends over a cuppa.
