As our "ANYTHING GOES CHALLENGE" continues...

I thought I would share my latest makes with you.  I've used Gerda's very cute images from StampFairy.com together with Papertrey Ink's Tag Sale 2 Die to create some Christmas tags.

The beauty of using digi stamps is you can make them exactly the size you want! 

 
This challenge doesn't close until midnight Tuesday 7th December (NZ time) so there's still plenty of time to share your projects with us.  Please scroll down or click here for challenge information.  Happy Crafting !

I love using the cuttlebug butterfly cut and emboss die.  I have used designer paper from Rosie's Serenity, ribbon, rhinestones and the craft concepts scrollwork embossing folder.  I also used little paper roses.

I've added texture to my cards with machine stitching, lace and button twine together with layers of gorgeous Material Girl papers from Cosmo Cricket.  I cut flowers from felt and kraft cardstock adding detail with a button and decorative pins.  The butterfly was made using layers of kraft cardstock topped with paper to add dimension.  I was on a bit of a roll with these cards, you can see another one on my blog here.

IT'S A WEE BOY THING

Hi to all....... 

Today is a lovely sunny hot day here in my part of the world.  I have spent the morning at my youngest daughter's school at Discovery Time, taking craft making .  The children made cards and bookmarks.   The kids just love it.  

Now I'm back home and into making some cards for friends and family who have just had babies.  



There's still time to take part in our One for the Boys challenge.  Please scroll down or click here for all the challenge information, we would really love to see your creations

IT'S A BOY THING...

Hi everyone...after a chilly start things brightened up and it turned out to be a really nice day in my neck of the woods!

Just perfect for a ride, which brings me on to my latest 'boy' card.  This very cute stamp is from Papertrey's Enjoy the Ride set, and has a matching die which is great!

There is still plenty of time to join in with our One for the Boys challenge as it doesn't end until midnight Tuesday 23rd November New Zealand time.

I made patchwork using papers from Making Memories Just Chillin (boys) papers and cut it out using one of the Spellbinder Label 1 dies.  To give my card a more grunge look I inked the edges using Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress Ink and stamped an ink splodge with Stampin Ups Close to Cocoa.

Here are a couple of birthday cards.  One for the man who loves fishing which I've put on a real fishing fly to decorate.  I've used my cuttlebug bubbles embossing folder.

The other I made for a boys birthday.  I used the cuttlebug happy birthday embossing folder and to decorate this I used buttons and cotton.
