Sew Happy

I am sharing some more cards that I have created using the Spellbinders September 2022 Card Kit, I have purchased quite a few of the older kits that were in the recent sale, so you will probably be seeing quite a few of them in the future.

This kit had a sewing theme which I rather liked, there are lots of ephemera pieces, die cuts and stickers along with cardstock, papers, dies and stamps.  I made this card using only the Card Kit.


I used a border die from the Spellbinders Slimline Border die collection along with the Embroidery Hoop dies from the kit to create this card.


For this card I used a Spellbinders Color Block Slice die to create the background.
 

For this one I used my Hunkydory Moonstone Multi Aperture Frame Die, everything else is from the Card Kit.

So Egg-cited!

I have been making some Easter Cards with the Violet Studios Hoppy Easter collection that I picked up  from Crafter's Companion.  Everything I have used to create these four cards is from the collection apart from some scraps of ribbon and twine from my stash.


I used a  Tim Holtz die to create the label on this card along with a scalloped edge die from Clearly Besotted.  The gems are from Hunkydory and the ribbon and twine are from my stash.


All I have added to this card is a gem from Hunkydory, everything else is from the Hoppy Easter collection.


The stitched square die on this card is from Hunkydory, it is an older die that I was given when I was on their design team back in 2019.


I used the Easter egg die from the Sara Davies Easter Signature Collection from last year along with some older Die-namics oval dies to create the little basket and some more gems from Hunkydory.


I'm sorry if I haven't managed to get around to visit everyone yet, I promise I will shortly.  Thank you for visiting my blog today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

Mother's Day Daisies

This is the Mother's Day card that I made for my Mother-in-Law this year, I find it very difficult to create cards for family and close friends!


I used papers, cardstock and dies from the Nature's Garden Delightful Daisies collection by Crafter's Companion, the sentiment is an unbranded die.

Dots and Flowers

This is another card that I have created with the Spellbinders September 2022 card kit, the kit has a sewing theme but this card has been created with items from the kit that don't have a sewing theme.


You get two copies of each of the embellishments, I used two matching floral embellishments along with a bird embellishment and a couple of fussy cut flowers, the papers and sentiment are also from the kit.

Kaleidoscope Wildflowers

I created this card before I had my little break from bloging, it has been lovely to see you all again - thank you all for visiting.


I used my Kaleidoscope Slimline die from Spellbinders along with some lovely toppers and a sentiment from the Hunkydory Wildflowers collection, the papers are from the Craft Consortium Grunge paper pad.

Sew Happy

I have been having a play with the Spellbinders September 2022 Club Card Kit, I'm a bit behind with my kits but you never know, I might catch up at some point!

I love these kits, they have changed them this year - there are less papers and no stamps or dies anymore, I never used the dies and stamps very much so that is fine by me.


This one has a sewing theme with lots of pretty papers, embellishments and stickers.  I used four of the lovely papers, some embellishments and a sentiment, I used a stitched circle die and popped up the embellishments with foam pads for dimension.

It's your Birthday

It has been six months since I last posted on my blog, I would like to say a big thank you to those of you that have emailed, messaged and left comments asking if I am OK, your kindness is much appreciated.  I am OK, I have a few ongoing health problems but nothing serious I have just taken a well needed break from blogging and social media.

I will not be posting or commenting as regularly as I used to but I am going to keep my blog going because I am still crafting and I do enjoy sharing what I make and seeing what everyone else is up to as well.

This is a Birthday card that I made using a Crafter's Companion Die along with papers from the Sara Davies Birthday Party paper pad, I used a combination of paper piecing and inking.


I found a verse on the internet and added a few stamped stars on the inside of the card.


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