My craft day

Hya,

How has your week been? Well mine has been quite hectic. This week i have had two exams to do. The first one was all about medical terminology and i was being tested on all the terms. Anyway i passed that one (luckily!!) and then the second one was about singles and pleurals of the words from the previous day. Iam proud to say i def passed that one with 100%. Get me!! So i am half way to being a medical secretary.

Just to let you know, my mog is on the mend now. She is back to being her chirpy fury self.

I also have had my ladies attending a class yesturday, so hi to Lynne, Carol, Terry, Pam, Irene and Cath. Here they are all beavering away.

And here is some of what they made. The project i am showing you today is a milk carton.

The cardstock is Melon Mambo stamped with Melon Mambo ink for the background. The F friends is also stamped with Melon Mambo and decoupaged for the 3 d effect. The flowers on the front have been stamped with Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive ink pads with a little brad from my stash. The gorgeous ribbon in the top of the carton is Rich Razzleberry Polka Dot ribbon to finish it off.

Do you know the best bit? The ladies all got to fill their cartons with fabulous thorntons chocs. Nice....

Come back soon and i will show you some more from the class. Have a good week.

Craft Day Part 2

Hya,

Happy thursday to you. How is the week going for you? Almost the weekend which is great.
I thought i would show you a few more treats from our day crafting.

The first pic is a desk card holder, made out of Rose Red card. It is decorated with Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White. On top of the whisper white i have put Old Olive Satin Ribbon and then some of the Stitched Felt Flowers that we got to play with too.





To go in the holder we made a few cards. The first card again was made with the Rose Red cardstock, layered with Old Olive. On Whisper White, the background was stamped with the Rose Red coloured inkpad with the Vintage Vogue stampset. The pearls are from my stash.

Again, the cardstock this time is Regal Rose with Rose Red. Same stampset, Vintage Vogue with a beautiful Filigree Brad.

Well thats it for now.

Have a good rest of the week. Thanks for looking,

Geraldines birthday card

Hya,

Happy thursday to you. Isn't the weather just lovely. It makes a really nice change that the sun is shining. It also means people are in a much nicer, especially as the england team finally won a game.

This time i wanted to show you a card that i made my lovely friend Geraldine's birthday that was this week. I have used some of her favourite colours. The backing card is from the new colours - Soft Suede. The next layer is the colour i know she uses the most - Old Olive. The flowers have been stamped with the inkpad Soft Suede and an old retired stamp set. The flower on the front is stamped using the flower from The Vintage Vogue set. To finish the card off i used Soft Suede polka dot ribbon.

So that's it for now. Why not leave me a comment to let me know you called by.

Thank you card

Hya,

How has your week been so far? I have been fairly busy as usual.

I thought i would show you a card i have made which was fairly easy and quick to make. I love the colours this involves. It's a colour that i have used many times before. Good old 'Old Olive' ink pad, iam so glad this colour is staying. The leafs are stamps used from the set 'Vintage Vogue'. I know this set has been used loads by other demonstrators but i haven't made enough use of it yet. The butterfly is from the Flight of the Butterfly set again. This time stamped with the new colour inkpad Melon Mambo. How girly is this colour, i love it. The ribbon is again Old Olive satin ribbon.

That's it for now. Have a good rest of the week.
