Little Cottage

Ok so this has been a project Ive had for about 2 years! Its basically a kit with the template, little clay bricks and tiles and fake grass and moss type stuff. I just had to have one! So after 2 years I finally finished and have say I'm rather pleased with it. Here are a few pictures of my mini cottage.

I found another while on holiday so I've just started that, watch this space for The Bricklayers Arms!

Cards

Ok, so these are just some of the cards I've made recently.

Oops!

Ooops! Can't believe how quickly time flies, my last post was February so pretty much 3 months have past and I've hardly done any crafting. Its such a shame when stuff gets in the way and there's a lack of time to sit and craft. I have made a few cards so I'll try to get photos up soon, I've also been trying to finish off another project that has been knocking around for roughly two years! I'll explain more another time.

Anyhu, just wanted to say I'm still here and trying to craft, hopefully I'll get my butt in gear to be a better blogger!

Best Wishes xx

Fishing

Can't believe how many birthdays are around this time of year! Anyway this one is for a friend who enjoys fishing with my OH, and they don't mind if they don't catch a lot. Found this one hard to do and I'm still not too sure about it, but hopefully he'll like it...

Not sure when I'll get to make another, finding spare time is becoming difficult there's always something more pressing. Watch this space...

Dinosaur

After being quite pleased with the easel cards I thought I'd have another go. This is for a friends little boy, just about to turn 3. Was quite fun making this one! I think making kids cards are easier, pick a theme and away you go...

Commission Cards

A work friend asked me to make two birthday cards, and I was so excited to be paid for them! I decided to have a go at an easel card for the first time. So here's what I made...

Can't quite remember where the cupcake digi image came from, so if anyone knows please say so I can give them credit. The papers were from a magazine ages ago, the sentiments and gems were from stash. Have to say I was quite pleased with the result. One of the recipients texted my friend to say what a lovely card, the smile on my face was hard to miss!! 

Valentines

I really struggled to make a valentines card this year, my man isn't a fan of pinky girly cards (actually neither am I!) so I needed to find something and came up with this...

The papers, ribbon and wire were from stash, the heart punch was friskars I think and the lettering is from craft time. Simples! x
