Saturated Canary and Breast cancer

This was the card I made for Totally Gorjuss' Lacy, Lacy theme that I couldn't post, because Blogger wouldn't work!

This is another great Saturated Canary image which I coloured with PM's. The Breast Cancer ribbon was die cut.

This cancer is close to my heart as 10 years ago my mum had the most aggressive form of Breast cancer. But, she was sensible went to the Doctor straight away, was operated, had chemo and radiotherapy and 10 years later now has the all clear. So please ladies, if you have any worries, get it checked!

p.s. If any of you have used Pan Pastels on your cards you can enter them into Hotshot Craft's "Pan Pastels" challenge.

Back Home

I am now back after a wonderful 2 week Mediterannean cruise with my husband. It was our 30th Wedding Anniversary before we went so It was like a celebration. If you have never tried a cruise you MUST!!!!! Its wonderful. This was our 3rd cruise. Will show some pics later.

Before I left Blogger wouldn't work for me so I couldn't show my Totally Gorjuss DT cards. So here is the one for the Baby challenge.

A clean and simple look.

I will post the other card later.

Saturated Canary and some candy

 

I just love the images created by Krista Smith so just had to use this one on my DT card for Totally Gorjuss this week. We are sponsored by the lovely Joanna Sheen

We have a sketch for you and this is my interpretation. I have coloured her with Promarkers and added some Stickles in her hair.

 

I also have a bit of candy to give away. I will pick someone who has commented on my blog between now and Wednesday.

Thank you for looking and enjoy thesun.

What can you do with a chipboard book?

We have in stock various designs of chipboard books with book rings.
You might think that all you can do is ...make a book. But why not make a wall hanging?

 Items used are available from Hotshot Craft.
Here is one i made using just 3 of the pages of one of the books. (you get 4 pages with this book)

 I have used Mod Podge to adhere the Strictly Party papers to the chip board. I have then Used Mod Podge over all the paper to give it a sheen and seal it.

 The letters were die cut, embossed and then coloured with Pan Pastels, my new best friends!

 Flowers and leaves were die cut from various card and Pan Pastels used to colour them.

 The shimmer on the letters was created by brushing the Shimmer Mod Podge over it. In the Mod Podge starter pack you get 5 bottles- Sparkle, Original Gloss, Original Matte, Outdoor, and Paper Matte.

 The ribbon at the top here was cream originally and i coloured it with Pan Pastels.

 Why not have a go. If you can't find any of the items used on the web shop then please ring Hotshot Craft to order on 01902 716770


Thanks for looking
