MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES...............USE A RIBBON OR RIBBONS


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

It's time for a new challenge over at
It's the B Teams turn this fortnight, and I am your host for this challenge.
We are being sponsored by 
CRAFTY RIBBONS

this fortnight and they are offering 
for a Non UK winner a 
GBP Voucher excluding the postage.
For a UK winner they will send a Ribbon Bundle.
The challenge runs from today to Wednesday 26th of September, and close at 6PM on that day.
All the DT love to see your wonderful entries into our challenge.

My Design Team creation is the other Wedding Card and Box I mentioned I made for my Great Nephew.

  


This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to fit it.
I made this one before the other one I showed a few weeks ago, and I was struggling finding the colour card I needed so edged the mat layer with ribbon so I had the right colour for my base colour.
I die cut my heart and then added ribbon all over it before placing under the heart aperture. 
The organza flowers are from the works, and the leaf ribbon my sister sent me. 
Please pop over to the challenge blog to see the wonderful DT creations my team mates have made.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

The hearts are a Tonic Die.

ANOTHER SHOES AND HANDBAG CARD

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends,
and visitors.
I can't believe it's Sunday again already my how 
time does fly or is it just that I have slowed to a
snails pace. LOL

Well I have some exciting news to share.
You know how much I love the Pink Gem 
Images.
Well while entering one of their challenges, they
were asking for Guest Designers, so I applied 
and I have been asked to contribute on 2 challenges.
I am really chuffed as I have always admired the
people who contribute to that wonderful challenge.  

So I thought I would show you another of the
Shoe and Handbag cards that come from their
site, that I made recently for my daughter in 
laws mother to give her Granddaughter.




This is a 8"x8" size card.
The card comes as a kit you download, and then
print, and put together yourself, and add your own little touches which I have done.
I also made a bag to go with this one instead of
a box.

Thank you fro your visit and wonderful comments.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANNIVERSARY CARD

Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends,
and visitors.
I hope everyone is enjoying the  lovely weather 
we are having, and if the weather is not so nice
where you live perhaps you should move to my
neck of the wood, as we always experience 
wonderful weather. 
I am still hoping for rain as we hardly ever get
any, and my water butt is empty yet again.
Well enough of my woes, and here is my card.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
I started by embossing some Tattered Lace
pearlised paper with a unnamed mask I bought
at the NEC 2 years ago.
I then sponged Peacock Feathers DI on the embossed area.
Cut out the heart with a Tonic Die, and then I  used a Tattered Lace Chantilly Rose border die,
round the edge of the heart.
The flowers are made from a die with no name 
I bid for and won on EBay.
I think they are Gerber Daisies.

Thank you for your visit, and time.
I very much appreciate it.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANNIVERSARY CARD

Hi and welcome to my blog, all my very talented
friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and comments.
It means so much to me that you take the 
time to visit me.

Well we have had some lovely sunshine in my
part of Kent the last few days, and may it continue.
 I do hope you are experiencing the same 
lovely weather wherever you may live.

Today I have a anniversary card for my step Son,
and his Wife, I know she loves the colour purple.





This is a 8"x8" size card.
The papers were printed from the Crafters 
Companion CD called LOVE.
The hearts with the letters were also printed 
from the same CD.
Now I didn't have Lavender Card stock so I used
White Card, and coloured the edges with 
Milled Lavender DI.
I used a Quickie Glue Pen, and some crystal 
glitter to enhance the paper, and the hearts.

Thank you again for your visit, and time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY CARD

Hi to all my friends and visitors.
Thank you soooooo! much for visiting me and all
the wonderful comments you make.

I do hope you are all having a great weekend.
The sun is shinning in my part of Kent, and I do
hope it's doing the same where ever you live.

My card today is for my granddaughter and her
hubby, it's their 2nd Anniversary tomorrow.
Now her fav colour is powder blue, so as I didn't
have powder blue this is the nearest I could make
it with inks.




This is a 8"x8" size card.
I coloured the edges of the card with a Promarker.
I inked my embossing folder with Tumbled Glass
Distress Ink, and then used Centura White Pearl
Card.
I made my flower with the Susan's Garden 
Poinsettia Sizzix Die, now I like to get more
than one style from my all my dies.
I used gold micro beads for the center of the flower.
I used lots of my snippets to make the flower,
and some of my die cuts, so I'm off to collect
the keys to the playground with this.

Thank you again for your visit, and precious 
time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following
challenges.
