Enjoy Life's Journey

I have been going through some of my older stash and decided to have a play with the Sara Davies Nautical Signature Collection from Crafter's Companion.

For this card I have used several of the papers along with some of the dies and stamps, I inked the edges of everything and used foam pads to layer up some of the elements.

It is a long time since I made a twisted easel card so I thought I would make one for a change.  I decided to create a Porthole with a little scene inside.  I used several of the stamps and dies along with some Kraft cardstock from my stash.

I decided on a rustic look for this card, I distressed the edges of the papers and cardstock as well as inking the edges.

This time I created a Tri-fold Shutter Card, I used several of the papers along with some of the dies and stamps.

This is another view of the card showing the inside of the steps

Floral Bobbin

I used one of the shaped cards from the Craftwork Cards Fab Fabrics collection to create this card.

I covered the shaped card base with blue dotty paper from the collection and then cut strips of floral paper, inked the edges and layered them up across the body of the bobbin.  The sentiment, scissors and other embellishments are all from the collection, I inked the edges of everything and attached them using foam pads for dimension.

Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave.

This is another card that I created using the beautiful Doily Dies from Creative Crafting World - I have used the A Day to Remember die from the Lacy Die collection along with the Pretty Purfect Paper Collection. They are both available from the Creative Crafting World shop.

You can see more cards using the Lacy Doily dies HERE.

I decided to create a circle aperture card, I decorated it with flowers created using the flower dies from the Circle collection.

Splash Crafts are back on Create and Craft next week, this time with the Fabulous Foils collection.  There are eight sets, each set comprising of a die cut topper sheet and background sheet, they are available separately or as a complete collection - there are also four additional foiled background sheets.

I created a circle swing card using two of the fabulous toppers and one of the additional background sheets (they are actually card stock).

I fussy cut the streamers from one of the other additional backing sheets and added some gold mirror card.
