Enjoy the little things........

Hello

I'm sharing the swaps I made for a training day.

I love this stamp set Layering Love.

It's great for cards, scrapbooking, picture frames etc etc.

I decided to make small card fronts, the top layer is only 3" square.

I stamped in Sweet Sugarplum, then die cut the cloud and hearts from 

Umbrella Weather framelits.

On the base layer I then stamped a cloud, and added some diecut hearts

in the new In-Colours, and one in glimmer paper.

As a final touch I added a co-ordinating new enamel shape.

The top layer is mounted on dimensionals (foam pads).

As you can see, I used lots of snippets for these,

and so I can visit the Snippets Playground!

Do pop over for a look at the talented artists there.

Hope you had a lovely weekend

June Rudolph Day

It's that time of the month again!

25th = Rudolph Day challenge of any christmas card.

I cased the design from last year's Stampin' Up! Catalogue.

It just shows you should never throw the old catalogue out,

as you never know when you might need inspiraion!

Simple square cards using crumb cake

and the Jolly Christmas stamp set.

I stamped the background, made tags, added some snippets of paper,

some of it crooked arrrggghh,

some twine and a sparkly star.

Do hop over and look at all the fab entries on the

Rudolph Day blog

Hope you have a wonderful weekend,

hopefully without the fierce storms we have in sunny Kent!

Thank you in the borders

Hello everyone,

I've been struggling to find blog-time recently,

but I'm trying to get back on track,

so thanks for taking the time and visiting  me.

To start the week I'm sharing a thank you card

using Mixed Borders, a stamp set that is probably going to be overlooked,

which is a shame because it's awesome!

It has oh so pretty border images,

that can be combined and used in so many different ways,

but the most awesome thing, I only found out AFTER I'd ordered it!

It is designed to leave a gap to place a sentiment.

This is something I don't think I've seen before ,

have you?

This is going to be a definite favourite!

I stamped on scrap and fussy cut so I could decoupage the little flowers.

Have a good week

happy crafting

Lesley

Happy Father's Day

I hope you have had a lovely day,

I do know it can be difficult for those who have lost loved ones.

I am very lucky to still have mine...

....and Alan's Dad....

here's the spinner cards I made with a brand new bundle from Stampin' Up!,

and some retired stamps....

I made matching envelopes....

close-ups of the spinner...

I'll share the 'how to' another time.

lots of love
