Good evening everyone

Hello everyone well it's been a busy day for us as a family but managed to fit some crafting in before my night shift. Hope you've all had a good day.

once I finish at 7am tomorrow I have 4 hours of training for work!!! Who has training on a Saturday!!! Hmmm.

 Anyway here's a few cards I've made this evening. Good night all xxx

Here's a quickie card using up a few scraps of my green stampin up cardstock. And gorjuss Santoro ribbon.im calling this tortoise tiddles. (Pepper pig, blame my daughter)

And my second card is a distressed/steam punk/vintage looking card with the brick work embossing folder from stampin up, my favourite die, 3D flower die, a few pearls a little ribbon and my Tim holtz distressing inks :) 

Vintage Santoro

Evening all just one card tonight as I was on a night shift last night so been relaxing with my daughter all day :).

Here we have a distressed Santoro card using the gorjuss Santoro stamp set with the coresponding ribbon.

Stampin up Wood effect stamp in the background.

Sizzex dies to create the 3D flowers which have bells inside which you can't really see in this photo and a few pearls. 

I distressed this card using the Tim holtz rusty hinge ink pad aswell.

Hope you've all had a lovely day. Night night for now.

A few recent makes using a mixture of products including stampin up and hunkydory

hello everyone Ive been rather busy which is why i havent been on much....

Good morning everyone :D

gosh I should really get into bed!! I have been crazy busy with crafting, attending a craft fare in manchester, weddings, changing and clearing bits up in my craft room.... the list is endless. Anyway I have now started selling my crafts, checkout my facebook page, please check out my page and message me with any questions. I can post and deliver but will come at an additional cost. The next two weeks at work are hectic but starting from the beginning of Oct I only have 5 shifts then my annual leave starts so I will have a little more blogging time.............. she says haha, hope you are all well.

2 quickie cards I made last night before heading off to dream land

 I have used a sheet of A4 acetate folded it in half and used the hunkydory floral pack. A few gems and voila!! A quickie card for when we just simply don't have time tee hee.

I have used hunkydory products and added a few gems and sparkles :D I love sparkles!!! I've matted and layered the elephant to give it a 3D effect.  I love this kit the elephant is soooo cute.

contact me

If anyone wishes to contact me at all, or wants a general crafty chit chat, or to maybe even become penpals please feel free to email me on
craft-hearted@hotmail.com

I look forward to nattering with you :D

A little something I've made to wear for my friends wedding and a few bits I've managed to cram in before I go back to work tomorrow.

As her made of honor I thought I would make a bracelet and a pair of earrings to wear on her big day. Something plain and simple but to tie in with the necklace we are all wearing. I have also made a book mark with our first scan photo of our little girl Olivia ( A book mark certainly beats folding over the corner of the page... tee hee ). I've also started printing off a few bits for Olivia's scrapbook I'm making her and decorated the front cover and even made a little gift for my penpal Brigitte..... and breath lol, yes I've been very busy!!
so I better shoot as I have to run a few erins before sorting all my work bits out for tomorrow :(
Take care everyone :D
