POP UP BOX FOR MY NIECE

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

I do do hope everyone is safe and well keep your chins up everyone, and keep crafting it helps.

Sending lots of love to those of you who may not be well with this or anything else.

Today I have a pop up box I made for my Niece to go with her Birthday card.

I used Hunkydory card stock again, and lots of snippets of card left over from the Birthday card I made in my previous post.

  The 50 dies, and the pansies were also snippets left over too.

I also used snippets to line the flaps of the pop up box.

This all folds flat nicely into an A4 envelope.

Will join my playmates over at the Pixies Snippets Playground with this.

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

I really appreciate every visit, and wonderful comment.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

BIRTHDAY CARD

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

Sorry I have been missing most of the week not getting on too well with everything I have to do.

Hubby fell over the other week, and helping him get up has given my back a lot of trouble so it takes me so much longer to do things.

Just wanted to pop on to post my card so I can join the Allsorts Challenge.

The lovely theme this week is your fave stamp, die, or image.

So here is my card with my fave doily die which I use a lot as may have noticed as it's so pretty.

  This is a 8"x8" size card.
The pink mirri is Hunkydory, and also the card used is.
I used my lovely lacy doily under the circle image which is my fave die, and it was so cheap from China too, and cuts out perfectly as well.
Little Butterflies were made by Wendy L our Team Leader over at the MAWTT Challenge, and don't they go so well with the colours on the card.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
Every visit, and comment are really appreciated.
Lots of crafty love.   JENNY.

BIRTHDAY CARD WITH A SPRING IMAGE

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

I have just been away at my sister's in Wales for 2 days.

Couldn't stay any longer as I don't like to leave hubby too long as he is still not at the stage health wise that I can leave him for long.

Got back late last night so sorry if I haven't been to visit for a couple of days.

I made this Birthday card for my DIL in January, and haven't shown it yet, and as it has a Spring flower image on it I will be joining the Allsorts challenge with it.

This is a 8"x8" size card.

The card stock is Hunkydory and the paper inside is from Hunkydory 8"x8" paper pad.

I love the apple green freshness of this card.

I noticed after I photographed it that the top corner hadn''t stuck too well so that was sorted before I posted it off.

Sentiment computer written.

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

THANK YOU MISS DI SURPRISE BLOG HOP

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

Darnell that lives over the pond is holding a surprise Blog Hop so that we all may Congratulate Miss Di on 7 Years of running the
PIXIES SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND CHALLENGE 

I first encountered this challenge from visiting my Dear Friend

 Sue J.

She was posting some great creations made with lots of left over elements from other cards.

 So I popped over to the
 PIXIES SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND CHALLENGE where our lovely Miss Di encourages you to use up your snippets making a creation so you don't waste anything.

It can be anything you want to create not just a card as long as it made with at least one snippet item or more if you would like.

Miss Di and her lovely helper Parsnip have been running the challenge for 7 years after taking it over from the lovely Jules.
We have freat fun, and games just like being back at school in the playground

So DARNELL has organised this Blog Hop for us to say Thank You for all your hard work involved with this great challenge.
I haven't managed to enter this wonderful challenge lately as my husbands health issues, and house renovations have made crafting a bit hit and miss lately.
Another reason was getting ready for alterations to the house I had to put all my craft items away in boxes, and be very strong, and throw away my boxes, and boxes of snippets I had collected over the years, but happily I found a small box I had missed so I made this card.
Everything on the front of the card is a snippet even the lace, and flowers the only new item is the card base which I made, and the paper inside.

  

This is a 5"x7" tent style card I made.
The main card image is a snippet of Hunkydory card.
The lovely gold rainbow mirri card is also a snippet.

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

I am entering this into the following blog hop and challenges.

40th BIRTHDAY CARD

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

I am trying to get back to blogging ,and crafting, but with all my craft items in boxes waiting for my new heaters to be installed it's quite difficult.

I have managed to make a few Birthday cards for my family who have Birthdays this month with Hunkydory items that I could find.

Also a card for my DT on Thursday, but guess what I can't find the camera lead to the computer, after looking in I don't know how many boxes.

I remember putting it away safely, but where............... LOL.

I noticed the Allsorts challenge this week is Milestones with Numbers so as I have a card I made for my Daughter's work colleague back last year, and haven't shown yet I thought I would join in.

This is a 8"x8" size card.

The card stock, images, and the papers used are Hunkydory.

I put lots of post cards in the pockets inside for their individual greetings, and signing.

Cut out lots of die cuts of Happy Birthday, and 40th, and glued them together to make them stand out more.

The lovely little Butterflies are made by Wendy L our Team Leader at Moving Along With The Times challenge bog.

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

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANOTHER RETIREMENT A4 SIZE CARD

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

Thank you so much for all your good wishes on my DH health.

Was asked by my Daughter to make this card for the lady who works on the reception desk where she works as she was retiring.

She wanted and A4 size card so everyone who works there could sign it.

So this is what I made for her.

As I said this is an A4 size card made from A3 white card that was 300 GSM  in weight, and  it's from the Hunkydory A3 Pads of card which is wonderful to work with, and such good value as it's only £14.99 for the pad of 50 sheets.

Used Hunkydory card with a sequin finish for the main part. 
The flowers and lace are from
 The Works, and the Corner Die was a freebie in a craft magazine a few years back.

The image is Hunkydory also, and the inside is Hunkydory paper, and I used picture from their little books to make the A5 cards inside for people to write their wishes on.

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

I really appreciate all your wonderful comments.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

40th BIRTHDAY CARD

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

Also welcome to anyone who just pops by to look at my work.

I now have a black and blue little toe because I caught it in the supermarket trolley this week, and my did I see stars when I did it.

My Daughter said do you want to go to the hospital, but I think it's only sprained, and feeling slightly better now.

Still hobbling a little though. 

Today I have a card I made for a colleague at my Daughter's works.

So hence the inside with lots of post cards for them all to sign.

This is a 8"x8" size card.

The papers, and the image are all Hunkydory, and also the postcards I made out the Hunkydory little book.

Ran out of the yellow card so I had to do a verse tag with a snippet of cream card.

Butterflies made with a die I won on the Butterfly Challenge just drew around the die and cut out a blank base for the butterfly, and added some stamens for the antenna.

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

I always appreciate every visit, and wonderful comment.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

DIORAMA GARDEN CARD

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

Also welcome to anyone who just pops by to look at my work.

Yesterday, and today is much cooler in my part of Kent, so glad of that as I'm not good with too much heat it makes me so tired.

Today I have a Diorama card to show so I think this will come into the category for the Allsorts Challenge.

This card works out to be about 5.50"x 5.50" in size.

It was a kit from Hunkydory, and decoupaged under the acetate window.

I just added my tent style card to the back for somewhere to put your greetings.

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

I always appreciate each visit, and the wonderful comments you make.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

THINKING OF YOU AND SYMPATHY CARD

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

Also a big warm welcome to anyone who just pops by to look at my work.

Now those of you who have known me for a while might remember I used to sing in a group that entertained people in nursing homes.

Sadly that all fell through when our keyboard player passed away 2 years ago.

Well last week I went to a funeral of another of our lovely singers.

The instructions from the family were to wear something sparkly  not dark as she loved her bling and was such an outgoing person, and could sing beautifully.

So this is the card I made for the family with that in mind.

This is a 6"x6" size card.

The papers are Hunkydory, and the bling butterfly image was from a freebie pad you got with the stones to make it.

Think I made a Boo, Boo, with the trail from the butterfly. 

I think it should have larger stones to smaller ones.

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

It is always so much appreciated.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANOTHER CARD WITH SOME SPRING FLOWERS

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

Also a big warm welcome to anyone that just pops in to look at my work.

Couldn't sleep again so I was in my craft room again in the wee hours.

This is what I made a simple, and quick card which will go in my charity box.

This is 6"x6" size card.

The image and papers are Hunkydory.

Just added some silk leaves, ribbon, and pearls.

Now I have a photo of my Granddaughter who did the Brighton Marathon on Sunday with her friend.

This was a 26K marathon, and she ran for the Pilgrims Hospice.

Oh my word this is such an achievement don't think I could have done it at her age.

So proud of her giving up her time for such things, and a good cause, as she has 3 children to look after.

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

It is very much appreciated.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
