A4 WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and time.
I really do appreciate your lovely comments on my work.
Well you know I said  on the weekend I was working on some wedding cards and boxes.
Here is the A4 size I made.




This is a A4 size card and box I made to fit.
The wedding couple I found on the internet, and printed onto Ivory Iridescent pearlised card.
When printed it came out as a grey line so I used Memento London Fog Ink to do my stamping so it tied in with it.
Made DL cards to go inside, and stamped them with London Fog Ink.
So all the staff could sign them.

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

WEDDING CARD AND BAG

Hi and welcome to my blog all my craft loving
friends, and visitors.
I do hope you are having a great weekend, and 
all is well in your neck of the woods.
As you know I have problems with my eyes,
and have a great deal of difficulty seeing things
that are small, and cutting out, and colouring now. 
So my my DH has bought me a Bother ScanNCut for Christmas, from C & C yesterday, so we spent all day tiding and re-arranging my craft room to house it, when it arrives.
Got rid of lots of unwanted items that were cluttering up my craft room, and took the doors
 off a wall cupboard to give me more room.
I will need to buy a new desk to put it on, but
we thought we would wait till it arrives to see
how big a desk I need, as no where had the 
specks of the size of it.
I am really excited, and what a very lucky girl 
am I.
So on to my wedding card and bag.
When I made my last one I had an order for
another one, but they wanted chocolate brown
and burnt orange on it, and I thought it was a bit
of strange a colour combo till the penny dropped
and I realized that it was the day before
Halloween.
So here it is and she was very pleased with it.




This is a 8"x8" size card and bag to fit.
I made the bag out of 2 A3 PMD white card.
I would have used cream, but I didn't have that
in the A3 card, so I went with white.
I managed to find some lovely chocolate brown
and burnt orange pearilised card at my local craft
shop luckily.
The daisies are from the Spellbinders Anemone 
Die, and the center is from the Sue Wilson Die
Finishing Touches Rose Die.
I used some snippets to stamp my sentiment on,
and mount it on to a snippets die cut.
This was inked with potting soil archival ink,
but it looks gold in the picture.

Thank you for your visit, time, and wonderful 
comments you make, as I really appreciate them.
Lots of crafty love.

BUTTERFLY, SNIPPETS, AND NIMBUS CARD.

Hi and welcome to my blog, all my talented
friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and the 
wonderful comments you make on my work.
I always appreciate your precious time spent
visiting my blog.

I do hope you all had a great weekend and the 
weather was kind to all of you.

Today I have a card I made for my youngest
Son and his wife for their Anniversary.
I needed a card for 3 challenges this week,
hence the title of my post.
I thought I would combine all the different
challenges by incorporating them all in one
card so here it is.


 I wanted to revert to an old design inside that
I used quite a few years ago.


This card is a 8"x8" size, made from PMD
white A3 card.
I used my New Sue Wilson embossing folder 
called Heart Lattice.
My new Tattered Lace paper gold and teal.
My new Tattered Lace Poppy Die.
The heart die is a Tonic Die and I used the
larger and smaller one the inside, and cut out the
front ones on some snippets card.
I stamped my sentiment onto some snippets
card with Peacock DI, and heat embossed it
with Silver Pearl embossing powder.
Added some feathers, and pearl hearts from my stash.
I do believe I have not used the pearl hearts 
before either. 
So therefore I have used 4 Nimbus items on
this card.
Of course there are some butterflies, and a sentiment on this so that meets with the 
Butterfly challenge as well.
Few I am tired after all that explaining, I do 
hope you haven't fallen asleep along the way.

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

WHITE AND GOLD WEDDING CARD AND BAG

Hi and welcome to my blog all my very talented
followers, and visitors.

Well that's another weekend bit the dust, and it will be soon the C season, and a very busy time
for all of us.
My daughter told me they had C stuff in some of
the shops in the middle of August.
Well they are bringing it forward, every year that 
passes, and soon they will have it in the shops at
Easter. lol.

Thank you for all your wonderful comments on
my last card.
I very much appreciate them.

Today I have a commissioned Wedding Card,
and bag to show you.
Now I have not made a bag before only a box,
but I keep seeing Rita's HERE on her blog, and 
the other week Mrs Duck made an excellent one 
HERE  so please visit their blogs if you don't
already do so.
So here is my first effort, needless to say I have
another order for one at the end of October.





The size of the card is an 8"x8" made from
Centura Snow White Pearl A3 card.
The bag is made from 2 A3 PMD white card.
I paper pierced the top layer of my Centura
Pearl card and mounted it on the gold paper,
with foam tape.
My hearts are Tonic Dies, and I intertwined
some pearls strands through the design.
The lovely satin daisies I bought at the NEC
in March, and were a bargain at £1, but sadly
they had no more, otherwise I would have
bought quite a few.
Other bits from my stash.
I used up some snippets of Centura Pearl on
some of the die cuts, so I will be off to join the
playground with this.

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