Lots of birthdays!

 Hi everyone!

There are lots of birthdays happening at the moment, including Bev at Uniko,

who designed this birthday scramble stamp which is so versatile.

Allsorts challenge blog is having a huge 17th birthday celebration,

where I’ll be entering this …..

I’m trying to use the lovely papers I have in my stash…you know, the ones that are too good to use!

All the papers are retired SU, always lovely quality.

I’m hoping you can see the gold veins….its lush and vibrant.

This one is slightly darker. I coloured them with SU blend pens in different greens.

Coordinating SU cardstock used for the card base.

This one is bright white and silver foil, (the camera does lie🙄),

Coloured with blue SU blends, placed on a turquoise card base.

Lastly a thick speciality SU cardstock with silver foiled stripes, which I used as the card base.

All the papers started out 12” x 12”

I stamped it with silver embossing powder, then layered onto a silver foil card snippet.

It was a fairly quick and simple card making session for upcoming male birthdays.

Do join in the celebrations at Allsorts Challenge #850,

where there’s an abundance of fabulous prizes!

Hedgie ran off with Santa’s hat

 Hi there

Sharing another Penny Black wooden stamp, Chill Day….

I do like a square card, and I’m enjoying using up some older papers.

Hedgie was so cold that he “borrowed” Santa’s hat from the washing line.

He’s popped up, having been fussy cut, ancient corner rounder punch used, 

(hands up if you still have yours!)

then another embossed white die cut layer on top of the papers, added gems, and WOS.

Landscape card, using an old felted/flocked paper (so soft), big 💎 gems on this one

Have a good day

Play guitars

 Here’s one I made for a music lover who enjoys his guitars.

It was fun designing the guitars with some SU papers and Gummiapan dies.

I love teeny things, and the Gummiapan dies are adorable, even a little tiny cassette tape 😍.

The background papers are SU too.

Enjoy your day

Cheers!

 A fun one today….at least I hope my cousin found it fun 😂😳.

We have to roll with these gags at our age 😂

It’s made with old SU papers, and lots of SU sentiments, probably retired.

It was fun to put together, a bit of fussy cutting, and a paper insert.

Enjoy your day!
