GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY CARD

Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and time.
I really do appreciate your visit and comments.

Today I have a card I made for my Great Granddaughter's 7th Birthday.
Remember I told you she does gymnastics and running so this is the design I came up with.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
I found the image of the trainers on the internet, and made the card to match the colours.
The glitter card I made by spraying glue on it and then adding glitter after I die cut it.
I also made my the backing paper yet again with the picture of the trainers, and the Card Creations Plus 3D2 CD.

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

ANNIVERSARY CARD

Hi and welcome to my part of blog land all my 
craft loving friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and the wonderful comments you make.
I am so glad you like my efforts of creating.

I seem to have slowed to snails pace this year as
it takes me so long to do things.
I get up in the morning and before long it's night
time again, and I think hang on what happened to
the day.
I need a 48 hour day me thinks.
I am also very behind with my card making.
For example today is my Son and his Wife's 
15th Wedding Anniversary, and I only made this
card yesterday afternoon.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
I used the Sue Wilson Heart Lattice embossing 
folder.
The heart dies are Tonic.
The corner die is Spellbinders.
The organza roses are from the works.
I stamped my sentiment with DI Worn Lipstick.
I used some heart snippets for the inside so I 
am off to the Snippets Playground with this.

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

THANK YOU CARD.

Hi and welcome to all my friends and visitors.
I do hope you are having a good week so far,
and managing to get lots of craft slotted in.
Thank you for all your comments on my last card,
and box.
I very much appreciate your comments and time spent visiting me as I know we are all so busy.

Today I have a card I made for Christine Harrop
to say thank you for a lend of a die.

CLIC TO ENLARGE.


Now the inside.



This card is just under 6"x6" size.
I made the base card from my snippets left over
from when I make an 8"x8" card out of A3 card.
I happen to know Christine likes purple.
The paper is Papermania Capsule Collection.
This is only a one sided paper so I photo copied
it on to card, and then photo copied a contrast
one on the back to make it double sided.
Then I made my flower out of the Heartfelt
Creations Sunkissed Fleur Stamp. I had to cut
out the flowers by hand as I am waiting for the 
die to be delivered.
I coloured my flowers and leaves with Whisper pens, and then sprayed them with water with 
Mica Powder in it to give it a slight pearly and
sparkle effect.
Cautionary tale use gloves for this as I had purple
hands for a few days.
While the card was wet with mica water I scrunched the edges of the flower to give it the
look you now see.
I got this idea from the Heartfelt Creations blog
that you can find  Here.

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

A4 WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my talented craft friends,
and visitors.
Thank you for all your lovely comments on my 
last card.
 
Well it's Sunday, and I can't wait to show you one
of the wedding cards I made for a customer, as 
the big day was yesterday.
The lady who ordered these lives in South Wales,
and I was asked to make them as she had seen my
work at my Dad's lady friends house. When I have
made her cards.

CLICK TO ENLARGE.

Now the inside.



Now the box.



This is a A4 size card and box.
I was instructed to use Ivory and Gold as the
brides dress was that colour, and she likes lots
of glitter.
The bridal couple were from a copyright book,
which I photo copied,and printed on Centura
Ivory Pearl Card.
I decoupaged the veil and bow, and added some
gold flowers and ivory pearls.
I used my A4 embossing folder that came with 
my E Bosser.
Now this is the first time I have made an A4 box.

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

BLACK AND WHITE 18TH BIRTHDAY CARD

Good morning dear blog friends and visitors.
A BIG THANK YOU for taking the time out of 
your busy day to pay my blog a visit.
THANK YOU also for all your comments on my
last card and box.
You are all sooooooo very kind with your wonderful comments.

I was asked to convert one of my cards in my
box of made up cards to an 18th Birthday Daughter card, but as I left no room on the said 
card for all this sentiment, I made a new one 
which is not needed now. So it will go in my box
with the others, maybe one day someone will
need it.
So here is what I have been working on.

CLICK TO ENLARGE.


Now the inside.



This card is an 8x8 size card.
I used my embossing folder that came with the
E-Bosser again as I love this as it's an A4 size,
so no matching up.
I used SB Grand Decorative Circles, and SB Grand Circles.
SB Flower Corner Die and some black flower
gems from my stash.
The hat pin I made a while ago.
The butterflies on the front I bought at the Nec,
as they were reduced in price.
The inside butterfly is a SB Fanciful Flights Die.
Thank you again for your visit.
I do hope you all have a fabulous Friday.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

BOX FOR THE BABY BOY CARD

Good morning dear friends and visitors.
THANK YOU for taking the time out of your busy day to visit my blog and make such wonderful comments.

I hope you all had a fab weekend with great 
weather.
I am off to my singing practice this afternoon
as we have a performance at a nursing home on
Thursday afternoon. I'm getting a bit more used
to singing in public now as this will be my 3rd
performance.

Today I have the box that goes with the Baby 
card, it is all packed up and ready to be posted
to my sister in Wales.
I hope you like what I have done with the box,
as I ran out of the powder blue card I used for 
the card.


CLICK TO ENLARGE.

Sorry about the image on the box for some 
reason it would not come out as clear as the card.
This box is to hold an 8x8 size card.
I found the lovely teardrop gems in my stash
which I bought ages ago form C and C, and I 
think they go lovely in the cut outs of the SB
Tear Drop Circles.

Thank you again for your visit.
I do hope you all have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

NEW BABY BOY CARD

Good evening to all you talented craft loving
people and visitors.
THANK you for choosing to visit my blog and 
leave such fabulous comments.
I am always delighted by your wonderful comments.

I do hope you are all having a super weekend,
with lots of crafting time to yourself.

Tonight I have just finished a Baby Boy card for
my sister to give her granddaughter, when she has
her first Baby at the end of the month. She knows
it's a boy so no problems with having to make two
different colour cards just in case.  Isn't technology great if you decide you want to know the sex of your Baby.



CLICK TO ENLARGE.


Now the inside.


I have used the Joanna Sheen Baby Love CD
for the backing papers, and the image.
Some doilies under the SB Dies.
This was made entirely with SB Dies.

Thank you again for taking the time out of your
busy lives to visit me.
I hope you all have really wonderful Sunday
tomorrow.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
