stampin up ' make a medallion'

Good morning!!!

               What a miserable day here in the new forest. never mind typical British weather hey! What have you all got planned for today??

I made this card for a friend of mine the other night. I just wanted her to know how lovely and how appreciated she is.
I chose the make a medallion stamp set due to its elegance.
I used smokey slate and island indigo inks to stamp with as I felt this was a good combo ;)
A little crushed curry cardstock to give it a little pop and this is what I produced :D


Enjoy your Friday!!!

stampin up 'cards for causes'

Good morning all.

 Works been a tad hectic so far this week, I'm looking forward to my 8 days off starting from Sunday.

So us demonstrators have been rather busy since the Manchester bombings, Some of us have made and posted some hand made 'Thank you' cards in order to show local hospitals and services how truly grateful we are for all their hard work over that past few weeks in both Manchester and London. One of our demo's Julie Wade and a few other demonstrators have now organised every month a charity, service, person/ people or organisation to make cards for, which i am proud to say I am now a part of!

 Here are the designs I made for the  London fire brigade. I made 38 in total :)

Please feel free to comment their much appreciated.

Have a wonderful day!

Stampin up ' pretty kitty stamp set'

                               


 Good afternoon all,
                           
                  After my laptop crashed earlier I thought I would put it down and try again later. This post was supposed to be the 'pretty kitty' upload that was supposed to work earlier today. I do hate technology sometimes.
Anyway here is this mornings make, A pretty little card using the stamp and sentiment from stampin ups very own 'pretty kitty' selection. I purchased this stamp set a long time ago but forgot I even had it (true crafters brain right there) To make this card all you need is cardstock, aqua painter to color in the stamp a few 3D foam pads, bakers twine,  my decorative label punch and ......voila!!
cute isn't it!!


This card is for all the cat lovers out there!!


All comments are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
