Keep Fit Birthday Girl

I have loads of cards to post here but just keep running

out of time!

This one was for a friends daughter who loves her yoga,

palettes and keep fit.

I thought this image from Saturated Canary was perfect for her.

I have teamed it up with Nitwits papers

and she has been coloured using promarkers.

I have been away on a short break with hubby down to Ballina, County Mayo.

We had a lovely time, weather wasn't great but workable lol.

Did lots of sight seeing even though we have been before with the kids many years ago.

But things have changed a lot since then and it certainly was very peaceful this time round!

So I'm back on the crafting wheel with lots to do in the week ahead.

Enjoy your weekend and thanks for dropping by!

Seaside scene

After a recent trip to the seaside I was inspired to replicate the scene by these two gorgeous dies

ANCHOR

and

FISHING NET

I think it makes a great male themed card.

I started my card by stamping this lovely scene and colouring with my markers.

I roughly drew some gray bricks and added some green and yellow to make it

look water stained.

I used the Anchor die and some kraft card

and adhered it over the brick wall.

I tore some lovely sea blue sparkly paper to create waves

and added the first strip.

I cut the anchor using some silver card

and glued it over the first wave.

I continued layering the torn paper to create the sea

and then trimmed everything off.

I finished with some nice striped ribbon.

The dies I used for my project today are:

and

Definitely two great dies to have in your stash!

I also used:

Stamp - Papermania Urban Stamps, Michael Powell

Medium - promarkers and sparkle pens for sky

Embellishments - ribbon

Boys in stitches!

Our challenge this month at Scrap the Boys card challenge is all about

stitching

For my card I used:

Image - Saturated Canary

Papers - Stampin' Up!

Medium - promarkers

Embellishments - faux stitching using white gel pen and navy pen

I made this for my nephew from his Grandmother.

He has a beard so I was really glad to find I had purchased this image

a long time ago and it worked perfectly though not sure I did the colouring justice!

It is a bit cooler alright but not too bad.

Summer party

Today I got myself into the summer party flow making some cute matching

windmills to pop into lemonade, cupcakes, sweetie jars and a little table seating card.

I used the gorgeous

DOTTED NESTING SQUARES

from Tutti Designs

I used one sheet of 6 x 6 inch double sided paper and cut

the square sizes you can see in photo.

I folded the paper from point to point, as shown, and burnished the folds.

I then cut up each fold just about a centimeter short of the centre point.

I added some tape runner and proceeded to bring one point of each cut up to centre.

They are held together with a silver square brad which attached them to the straws.

The little table seating card is 2" x 2.5", folded in half.

Stamp your sentiment and secure the smallest windmill to the side using the brad.

Easy and quick and you know your squares will be perfect using these great dies.

For my project I have used

As I got carried away making these I decided to do a card for the birthday girl too.
