Let it Snow....


Well, here we are at Bah Humbug Challenge 32 already. So my chosen theme for this one is Snowflakes and snow. I have made an easel card that is also a shaker card, with Diamond dust as the snow. The image is one of my favourites that was sent from canada as an RAK a few years ago. I have used Silver card for my backing and my frame is Blue glitter card. I then used my MS snowflake punches to add a strip for the easel to stand on. Hope you like what I've done. Hugs Rita xxx

I have also entered into Winter Wonderland this week too where the theme is Snow or Snowflakes
CraftyAnn's Challenge 21 is Christmas in August
As always Thanks for Looking.

Bling Time in August


Hi Everyone, I had to make a bling card for a friend this week and thought I would enter it into Sir Stampalot August Challenge. I used white Hammered cardstock and added a lilac pearlized card to which I added a print on to canvas and thoroughly enjoyed decorating it with diamonte and glitter. I stamped out 2 butterfly images on to parchment and glttered them using different colours, cut them out and attached them to my finished card. Hope you like what I've done. Thankyou for looking.

Fairy Ruby


Well, I managed this one too, my Christmas card collection is growing fast now. thanks to Bah Humbug. This gorgeous stamp is one of a brand new collection of stamps by Ladybug Craft Ink, the stamp image is so clear and it makes it so easy to get a great card using them. This one is "Letter to Santa Ruby". I have realised I have been making the wrong size of cards for challenges ,so I have made amends with that too. Hope you enjoy looking at my cards. Hugs Rita xxx

Challenges I have Entered are,

Through the Window



Hi Everyone, After spending a week decorating and having carpets fitted etc, I enjoyed creating this card for Bah Humbug Challenge 30. The background stamps were from Creative Expressions and I layered them into a picture. Put acetate on to the frame window and added a bow( not like me at all ). Hope you enjoy looking at what I've done. Hugs Rita xxxx

Butterfly Kisses


This is a card made for my Grandaughter Molly. She loves making cards and receiving them too, she has been crafting since she was 4 and is now 7 years old. Quite a simple card to make and the butterfly is added on with acetate so it can fly.She is coming to stay for a few days from to-morrow. I bet we do lots of crafting too. Thank-You for looking at my blog. Hugs Rita xxxx
