Hi and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Also a welcome to anyone just looking at my work.

I am back today with a card and box for my DT  over at

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES 

It's the B Teams turn and the lovely June is our host for this challenge, and she would like to see Flowers as the focas point of your entries please.

The challenge runs for a fortnight, and closes at 6pm on Wednesday the 4th of July.

Please pop over to the challenge to see my teamies wonderful DT work, and enter if you can.

This is a 8"x8" size card, and box I made to fit it.

The papers are printed from a MCS CD.

Decided to go with a bunch of flowers as my focal point this caused me probs as I had to make the base of the box deeper to accommodate the bunch of flowers.

On an another note I have finished my album just have to photograph it now.

Oh my word that is going to be a lot of pictures wish I could video it.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time, and patience with me.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD BOX AND BAG

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

Was asked to make a wedding card, box, and bag for the beginning of December for my Daughter's Fiance's Nephew.

The bridesmaids were wearing Maroon now this posed me a big problem as I had no flowers in that colour that I could think of, neither did I have that colour card in my stash, and as I like incorporate that colour somewhere in my wedding cards I suddenly remembered I had some seam binding ribbon that colour so I made my flowers out of that.

Hope you like my design it was a pig to photograph though,

This is a 8"x8" size card, box, and bag I made to fit.

I made my bag a little larger than I usually do  so they could put all their wedding cards in it.

I used Ivory Pearlised card as the bride was wearing Ivory.

Thank you so much for you visit, and precious time.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

BABY'S FIRST CHRISTMAS CARD AND BOX

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE.

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

I do hope you all had a super festive season, and for those of you that were not well over Christmas big gentle hugs.

I am just getting over mine, and feeling a lot more energetic now thank goodness.

Before Christmas I was asked to make quite a few special cards for people, and as I can never say no to anyone here is one of them.

 

 This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to match.

Papers are from the Joanna Sheen Baby Love CD.

I sprayed them with Crafters Companion Spray and Sparkle Pearl Diamond spray which unfortunately doesn't show up on the blog.

Now a tip I found out is you can print on glossy photo paper and spray it with the spray and it looks lovely.

Obviously wait for the photo paper to

to rest for a little before doing this.

Thank you so much for your visit.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.

 

THANK YOU CARD

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

I would like to welcome my newest follower Henry, and thank you for choosing to follow me, can you let me have a link to your blog if you have one so I can also follow you.

Had quite few busy days catching up on things I had let slide last week due to all the baking for the Mcmillan coffee morning.

I mentioned I had a few Thank You cards to make to say thank you for donations that were given as raffle prizes, and some Bric a brac that also went on a stall to help with the final amount.

So here is one of them.

This is a 8"x8" size card.

The flowery paper is from a MCS CD.

I die cut a few different circles, and finally stamped my Thank You and heat embossed it with Sea Foam White embossing powder.

Finally I cut out a couple of flowers from the left over paper, and added a ribbon bow.

Thank you so much for your visit, and your precious time.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

MONOCHROME WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.

I do hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

My neighbour asked me to make a wedding card for her recently, and as she didn't know the colour scheme of the wedding this is what I made.

I went back to an old design I created  a few years ago as it was a bit rushed, and I wasn't given much time to think up a new design.

Every design of this is always slightly different in any rate.

This is a 8"x8" size card, and box I made to fit it.

Now this didn't photograph well as the colour looks beige looking.

It was supposed to be white pearlised card from Crafters Companion, but it was more Ivory so how they can call it white I don't know. 

I used the Sue Wilson Heart Lattice embossing folder.

The middle die with the sentiment is a cheap Chinese one.

Thank you so much for you visit and your precious time.

I really appreciate all you wonderful comments you make.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

A SHABBY CHIC CARD INSPIRED BY A BOOK

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

Had family over for tea today so lots of cooking and clearing up after they went home.

Oh it's lovely to have them here, but the washing up afterwards is not great.

Well on to my card for today it's a card I made for the Frilly and Funkie Challenge, and the theme this fortnight is Author, and book inspired.

Now I don't read much these days, but was inspired by The Harry Potter books, as I think the stories are superb and very wonderful.

Oh to have J.K. Rowling's imagination must be wonderful.

This is a 8"x8" size black card I made.

I matt and layered it with Kraft card, and paper.

I distressed the edges with scissors, and inked the edges with Rusty Hinge DI.

I then sprayed the whole card with Phill Martins Old Gold  Cosmic Shimmer Mist which gave it a lovely gold sheen.

I used Phill Martins Chic Pumpkin Sparkle Texture Paste through a mask, and lots of bits from my stash to finish it off.

Thank you so much for your visit.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
