Young, Wild + Free

This is the second card that I have created with my Kaisercraft Hide & Seek collection.

I love the pretty papers and bold toppers in this collection, I cut this topper out with a stitched circle die and added it to a slightly larger gold circle.  There is another set of toppers as well, they are not as bold as these dark brown woodgrain and gold ones.  The small sentiment is also from the collection, I just added some gold Miri cardstock, some fussy cut leaves and a gold twine bow.

Grow Wise

I have created this sweet card with my Kaisercraft Hide & Seek collection, it is a very nature inspired collection with lots of cute animals, flowers and leaves.

I have used papers from the 6 x 6 inch paper pad along with one of the borders.  The topper and the fussy cut animals are from the 12 x 12 inch paper pad, I just added some ribbon and gems to embellish.

I went for a lovely walk this morning, the first time I've been out for a while what with being rather poorly.  I managed to pick lots of blackberries for the freezer, there are so many this year - we will have plenty for nice apple and blackberry pies and crumbles in the winter.

Mini Monday

I'm back!  Sorry I haven't been around much recently - I've been a bit under the weather but hopefully I'm OK now. 

It's time for another instalment in my Mini Monday series, this week I have created a very small mini album, it measures just over three and a half inches square - I was inspired by a YouTube video by Decor8yourlife.

I used a Graphic 45 Large Black Tag for the cover along with a little black card stock for the pages.  The album is decorated with one sheet of paper from my Graphic 45 Imagine collection, not much stash used up this time then!

It s a very simple little album, above you can see the album open, there are three zig zag style pages and below you can see them opened out, two of the pages have small pockets.

This is the reverse of the pages, I popped some of the small toppers from the Cut-Apart sheet in the pockets and fussy cut some bits and bobs to embellish.

Thank you for popping in today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Sweet Butterfly

This is another card that I have created with my Prima My Sweet collection.

I have used three of the beautiful papers along with a topper and fussy cut butterfly, I have inked the edges of everything and cut the flower from some of the papers using my Fleurs Flower Dies.  I added a small button to the centre of the flower and three more larger buttons to embellish.

Mini Monday

It's time for Mini Monday again, this time I have created a couple of ATCs with my Prima My Sweet collection.

I used several scraps of patterned paper along with a fussy cut butterfly and flower to create this one.  I also cut a doily using an unbranded die and a fishtail flag, I inked the edges of everything, fussy cut a sentiment from the collection and added some small gems.

For the second one I used several scraps of paper again, this time I used a woodware punch to create the little borders and added two fishtail flags along with a fussy cut butterfly.  The edges have been inked again, I created a paper bow with a Die-namics die and added some more small gems.

Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

Flower Shoppe

I have created a couple of simple cards with my Kaisercraft Flower Shoppe collection, these papers are so soft and pretty.

I used papers from the 6 x 6 " paper pack along with a die cut topper.  I fussy cut the butterfly and added a sentiment from the collection.

For the second card I just switched the papers and used a different die cut, fussy cut butterfly and sentiment.

I am taking part in another Facebook Live this weekend, we are creating an album, hopefully I will be sharing it with you very soon.

Bonjour

I have created another mini album with my Graphic 45 French Country collection, this one is 6 inches square.  The album design comes from a video on Clare from My Creative Spirit's YouTube Channel, I made mine a bit bigger than hers and I have fewer pages.

Above you can see the front cover, I fussy cut the Sun Flower topper and popped it up on foam pads for dimension.

Below is the inside front cover and the first page, the pages alternate in size and they all have a pocket with a photo mat inside.  The front cover has a belly band with a small folder in it.

This is the photo mat, I have covered them with all with different coloured solid paper.

 

Next is the back of the first page and the front of the second page, it has another belly band with a journal card.

This is the back of the second page with a small pocket that has a folder in it.  I left the front of the third page blank, you can see the photo mat in the large pocket.

This is the back of the third page and the front of the final page, it has another belly band with a tag behind it.

Finally the back of the last page and the inside of the back cover, it has a pocket into which I have placed another couple of tags.
