Bashful Blue Thank you card




I have been experimenting with my camera. I have found I have not been able to take a good photo without daylight. These were taken this evening... I think a bit more playing with the settings and I will be there.

Twitter Card Sizzix and Stampin' Up



The bird is a sizzix die. When I showed the card to my other half he asked why I had made a card with the Twitter bird on it... I can see what he means!

Stampin' Up Medallion Stamp card


I stamped the large background medallion stamp in whisper white ink onto chocolate chip card stock and cut out the centre and placed a brad in the middle. I used the 1" circle punch and punched it out of the other bit!

Stampin' Up mini album




There is a very sad story behind this little album. I took photos of it before I stuck my pictures in and then I was going to take pictures again after I had completed it by adding the photos and the journalling. Well I did complete it BUT I found it on the drive this morning, it had dropped out of the book it was in and must have been ther all night in the pouring rain. I made a few observations from this accident. I discovered that Stampin' Up Whisper white ink does not run, that the kraft card stock dries to a lovely rough texture when dried out on a radiator and the Stampin' Up Snail Adhesive still sticks even after it has been soaked!

Stampin' Up Card Solitude hostess Bundle


A slight variation on the previous two days, a normal gate fold card. I scalloped the edges and the made them meet in the middle with Tempting turquoise card stock. I used the standard index wheel from the hostess Solitude Bundle and ran it down either side using whisper white ink, the little bird also came from the same set.
