MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES...CHALLENGE 168........CAS...CLEAN AND SIMPLE

 

Hi and welcome to all my very talented and craaft loving friends.

It's the 1st of the month again and time for a new challenge over at

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES 

This months challenge is hosted by the lovely Helen and she has chosen CAS  creations for the theme this month.

The challenge runs from today till 30th of July.

Now as you all may know CAS isn't easy for me as I tend to like a busy card design, but here is what I created for the challenge.

 


This is a 6"x6" size card.

I also went with CAS inside too.

The 3D embossing folder used I got from Temu as I love Fuchsias.

The sentiment is from the Hunkydory Book of Typed Sentiments.

The stamped sentiment inside was a freebie when I bought something from Craft Stash. 

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.

I really appreciate every vist and wonderful comments made especailly as I am a very bad blogger at the moment.

Summer time I find very busy with trying to garden as well as everything else.

I have tried to find a gardener in my area, but there are not any.

My family help a little but they have so much to do themselves that I don't like to trouble them.

Another problem I have is my kitchen is in the front of my bungalow and my garden is in the back so I can't use a hose if needed so I have to lug water in and out as my water butt needs renewing.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES CHALLENGE 165 ..... FANCY FOLDS

 

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

Sorry I have been missing in action but I have had quite a few health appointments to attend to in March and March is a very busy month for family cards too.

Do not worry they were just routine appointments for opticians, dentist and hospital, but were doubled up because of problems, such as fillings and of course when I go to the opticians I get referred back to the hospital again and I must say the appointment for the hospital was very quick to arrive.

 

Well it's the 1st of the month and time for a new challenge over at

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES 

It's the lovely Helen's turn to host this month's challenge and she would like to see Fancy Folds on your creations. 

So here is what I created.

 


 

The second picture is the opening of the card .

This is a 8"x8" size card that I adjusted the size from a Sam Callcott You Tube vidio.

The flowers around the aperture and on the front are Tattered Lace Dies and I coloured them with Alchol Markers.

Image of the birds are Hunkydory.

I made the stick pin on the front.

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.

I really appreiate every visit and wonderful comment you make.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
