OLDIE FOR FRIDAY

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

Sorry I didn't get around to commenting on every ones blogs yesterday and the day before, but I got so tired I fell asleep while at my computer.

My sister always says I can fall asleep anywhere, just don't sleep well at night so that's my excuse, and I take blood pressure meds which make me very sleepy some days, but strangely not at night.
Hopefully you will forgive my lack of commenting, but I will try hard to catch up today, and tomorrow.

Well I can't believe it's Friday already, and time to share and older creation with ERIKA HERE.

This is all just for fun, but a delightful way to show newer followers your work before they joined you.

So here is mine for this week I made this for the butterfly challenge a few years ago.

  

This is a 8"x8" size card.

I made this with a Hunkydory kit I bought about 4 years ago.

I die cut the leaves, and added stickles to them, and I also die cut the butterflies and inked them with a combination of DI to give them their different colours to match the card. 

Thank you so much for your visit, and time.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

OLDIE FOR FRIDAY

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

Thank you so much for your visit, and time.

I very much appreciate all your wonderful comments on my work.

My Daughter works for a charity that looks after clients with learning difficulties, and they are having a fund raising event in August so I am steadily trying to make things to sell on one f their stalls to help.

So if I'm not about much you know the reason why, but I will try to keep up as much as I can.

So onto today, and it's been a few weeks since I joined ERIKA HERE 

with an Oldie for Friday.

It's all just for fun, but a delightful way to show your newer followers some of your older work.

So here is mine this week.

This is an A5 size card.

I used a Hunkydory image, and card stock that came free with their magazine a few years ago.

I added a a doily, and a few Spellbinders Parisian Die Cuts around my sentiment.

The stick pin I made.

Thank you again for your visit.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY. 

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.

BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE NO 54.............R IS FOR RECYCLE AND OR RUBY RED

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and your precious time commenting on my work.
I very much appreciate each and every one.

Today I have my entry into the Butterfly Challenge No 54 which is R for Recycle, and or Ruby Red.
Now I had been contemplating on this one, and suddenly today I thought of what I could do.
So I recycled a bag you get your Pandora purchases in.

The second picture is so you can see the Rose I made some time ago a little easier.
This bag is about just over 6"x6" in size.
I started by measuring the bag, now don't laugh as I am not very good with measurements, as I have mentioned before.
I cut 2 pieces of red card just under 6"x 6" in size.
The white card was snippets left over from a A3 size of card that I had cut down for another project.
I inked the edges of the card with Fired Brick DI, and then I spritzed the card with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists in red.
I stamped a butterfly with the DI, and added some dots with a Promarker.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE AND SNIPPETS CARD

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

 I do hope you are enjoying your weekend, and
the weather is being kind to you.
We have beautiful sunshine and blue skies, here
in the East of Kent, but it was a quite a  chilly 
start to the morning.

I am feeling a lot better now, it must have been
some sort of bug I picked up, and I don't very
often suffer with those.
I also had a phone call from the hospital 
offering me another appointment, and guess 
what it was for Monday, so I had to decline it.
Just waiting for another one now.

I needed to make a card for the butterfly
challenge, and the theme this fortnight is
Autumn Butterflies, so here is my effort.

This is a 8"x8" size card.
The card and image used is a Hunkydory
 Autumn Butterfly one from about 3 years ago.
The image came in 3 sections so I used 
mounting foam on the center piece to raise it up,
but it doesn't show in the photo.
I cut out my butterflies and coloured them with
Rusty Hinge, Pine Needles, DI, and also 
Archival Ink Potting Soil.
I added some gold stickles to them too.
I also cut out my leaves, with some snippets card,  and distress inked some, and used stickles and Cosmic Shimmer Iced Snow Glitter on them.
The inside corners were made from the left 
over pieces of the front corners, and one I had 
used before.

Thank you so much for your visit and the 
wonderful comments you make.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
