Easter Eggs

 I have four more Easter Cards to share using the Photoplay Hop TO IT collection.


This is a slimline card, I really don't make enough slimline cards, it is easy to just make the same shape and size all the time.  Everything is from the collection, lots of my favourite fussy cutting.


I loved the cute carrot banner so much that I fussy cut another one from the cover sheet to use on this card.


I cut the scalloped borders at the top and bottom of this card using my Clearly Besotted edge die.


I used an EK Success punch to create the scalloped border on this card and created the rosette with my Tim Holtz Paper Rosette Die.


Thanks so much for visiting today, I will be back in a couple of days with some more cards, I hope you will join me then.

Easter Egg Hunt

I have some more Easter Cards to share today, this time I have used the Photoplay Hop TO IT collection.  All of my cards were created using just the Photoplay collection, I have only used some dies and punches to add detail.  


I used five of the papers on this card, I rounded the corners on the topper and used my Fishtail Flag dies to create the two little banners.


I used three of the papers on this card, I fussy cut the little banner, the tag is from the sticker sheet along with all of the other bits and pieces.  I also used my binding edge punch and added white twine to the tag.


For my third card I used three of the papers and one of the toppers which I framed with my Tangled Circle die.  I also used some stickers and a butterfly fussy cut from one of the patterned papers 


On my final card I used three of the papers, a topper and some stickers, I used an Inverted Corner Rectangle nesting die to cut the panels and my fishtail flag die to cut the banners.

Easter Happiness

I have some Easter cards to share today, I have used the Echo Park Easter Wishes collection.  My inspiration came from Anya's Projects on Scrapbook.com, she has lots of beautiful cards on there, pop over and take a look.


I have used papers from the Easter Wishes collection along with several fussy cut bits and bobs, I cut the clouds using dies from the Crafter's Companion Colour Your World collection.


I used velum to separate the little scene from the base and used a Scalloped Edge Die to cut the border at the top.

Me & You

I have four more Valentine cards to share today.  I have used the Photoplay Smitten collection .  I previously posted four other cards using this collection, you can find them HERE if you missed them.


Playing with paper is definitely my favourite, I just love cutting and layering up patterned papers.  I used the cover sheet as the background on this card, I just added die cut ovals, a sticker and a punched border tied with twine.


I used three of the papers, a topper and some stickers on this card.


I used the opposite triangles of paper that were left from the previous card here along with some stickers.


For my final card, I used more of the papers, a topper and some stickers.  I made a rosette from one of the papers and topped it with a sticker.


We have just started planting seeds for the veg garden and greenhouse, it's going to get busy in the garden over the next few months, I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather and spending some time outside.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - I hope to get some time to visit everyone this week, fingers crossed!

Blooming Hello

I'm sharing some more cards that I created with the December 2024 Spellbinders Club Kit, this time I have used the Small Die of the Month and the Embossing Folders in the kit.

The flowers are from the December 2024 Small Die of the Month and the sentiment is from an old kit, the November 2023 Stamp & Die of the Month.  I used the embossing folder from the December kit for the background along with some striped paper from my stash.

For my second card I used flowers from the Small Die of the Month again, the scalloped circles and border are from the Simple Vintage Flower Shoppe collection from Spellbinders, the background is the 3D Embossing Folder of the Month and the sentiment is the November 2023 Stamp & Die of the Month.


That's all for now, hopefully catch you again soon.

Hello

I've been playing with the December 2024 Spellbinders Club Kit again, this time I have used the Small Die of the Month.

For my first card I have used the die as it is supposed to be used, I cut it from black card stock and used pink for the background and flowers, I thought it contrasted nicely.


For my second card I cut into the 'H' to create an 'I' - I saw a card like this on Instagram and liked it so I thought I would have a go. I used black card stock again, this time I used some pale yellow paper for the background.


For my final card I used white card stock and some brighter yellow paper for the background.


Thanks so much for visiting today, I will be back in a couple of days with some more cards, I hope you will join me then.

Happy Times

Here are four more cards that I created using the May 2023 card kit from Spellbinders.


I have only used items from the kit - papers, stickers, ephemera and sentiments.


I have also fussy cut items from the papers.


This collection is so pretty, I love the colours.
 

Everything you need is in the kit, all you have to do is add adhesives.
