BIRTHDAY CARD WITH COOKING ELEMENTS.


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

I do hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.
The sun is shinning beautifully in my part of Kent, so I do hope it's the same where ever you may live.

A new challenge started over at the Allsorts challenge yesterday, and the theme is cooking, and baking so I made this card so I could enter.
No idea who it will be for though.
I expect it will go into box of cards for later when it's needed.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
The paper is a Dovecraft one from a 8"x8" pad.
The apron is from a template which was a lot larger, and I just re sized it.
Then I cut it out of some gingham paper by hand. 
On the front cover of the pad of paper it had cooking items which I fussy cut out to go on the apron.
The flowers were stamped and cut out of Snippets of card, and also the leaves were die cut too from Snippets.
So I will be going over to the Snippets Playground with this.

A little tip that some of you may not know about.
When I cut out my die cut words I use an old cereal packet for the base layer of the words, as this means instead of cutting out about five to make them stand out you only need to use 2.

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

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES DT.........A LITTLE SHABBY CHIC


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

It's time for another challenge over at
It's the B Teams turn,  and the lovely June chose this theme, but unfortunately she is not well so Wendy our Team Leader is your host. 
So here is hoping June is fit, and A1 again soon sending lots of love and hugs to try , and help.
The challenge runs from today till Wednesday 26th of February, and closes at 6PM GMT.

So here is what I made a few weeks ago ready for this challenge.



This is a 5"x7" tent style card I made by gluing the back.
I distressed the edges of my paper I used, which was from a 12x12 pad from B&M.
I used cardboard and glue to give depth between the layers instead of foam tape as this saves on tape.
I use Cosmic shimmer PVA Glue for this as it holds perfectly.
Then I added lots of different layers of doilies, crochet ones and paper ones.
Some lace, ribbon, and organza flower lace to the centre.
Finally adding a lovely lace butterfly, and flicking white watered down white gesso all over.
I really love making this type of card.
Please pop over to the challenge blog to see the lovely creations my Team friends have created.

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

BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE NO 116.... SPIN THE WHEEL FOR THE LETTER K


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

Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments on my recent posts.
I very much appreciate every visit, and comment.

Well another sleepless night yet again so I manged to make a card just in time for the Butterfly Challenge.
I think I have manged to use all the items on the wheel this time around especially as I haven't been able to join in this challenge for a long time.


Here is the wheel with all the elements.


My card is a 7"x5" tent style.
Sorry I didn't manage to decorate the inside, as I used lots of snippets to make this, and there wasn't enough for the inside. 
I used kraft card, some Kelly Green card, Kobi for the Kite, and ribbon for the knot, some Kobe,dark red paper, in the corner, and of course my Butterflies.
Some of the items used are items I won on one of my Butterfly Challenge wins a long time ago. 

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

NEW HOME STAMPED CARD


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

While out at the supermarket on Wednesday night I decided to pick up a craft magazine that I saw Christina Griffiths demo on UTube.
It had lots of bird stamps as your freebie item.
Couldn't wait to use them as my Granddaughter has just moved house, and I needed to make her a card.
This card is one when it's finished you do a Happy Dance at how it turned out.
Made most of it in the middle of night when my dreaded RLS was plaguing me.



This is a 6"x6" size card.
I started by blending DOI in Worn Lipstick, Cracked Pistachio, and Fossilized Amber on 3 of my base layer cards, and then spritzed them with water.
I then cut an aperture in my top layer, and stamped it all over with one of the stamps, and the DOI Worn Lipstick.
I then put the circle that came out of the aperture, and cut another aperture so I could use the edge left round the aperture.
Mounted it all on foam tape.
I then stamped my Bird House in Potting Soil archival, and the Blue Tits in Black Archival Ink.
Coloured them in with Derwent Water Colour Pencils.
Stamped some flowers, and coloured them in with DOI W/L.
The Birds, Bird House, and the Flowers were stamped onto snippets of card so I will be off to the snippets playground with this.
I finally added  some ribbon green leaves, and stones to the eyes of the Birds. 

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

HUNKYDORY WINDOWS TO THE HEART CARD


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

Sorry I am still absent from my blog a lot.
I am still trying to get my craft room back in ship shape, and still unpacking lots of boxes which is taking me ages as my back will only allow me short periods of work.
I can't believe how much craft items I have still to put away.
My old desk was rather large and had lots of drawer space.
This has had to go to make way for the new heater that was installed, which I must say is keeping me lovely and warm, but my new desk is lot smaller and only has 2 drawers so I have had to buy some plastic drawers to use instead.
Will try, and show you photos or video of the old, and then the new when it's all done.
I have also been labelling everything so I know exactly where everything is.

In the meantime I have a card to enter into the Allsorts Challenge which I made a while ago , and haven't shown yet.
This came as a kit card, and there were 6 different ones which I made all at the same time before I forgot how to make them.


As stated this is from a Hunkydory kit called Windows to the Heart.
I just added a ribbon bow to this.
This design folds flat and fits into C5 Envelope.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really appreciate your patience with my hap-hazard blogging at the moment.  
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

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.

SORRY YOU ARE LEAVING CARD AND BOX


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

I would like to welcome my latest followers that have pressed the button to join my blog, and thank you for following me.
I'm not sure if you have a blog, so if you have let me know so I can follow you too.

I have had to go back to my old computer as I could not get on with the any of the other photo editing programs.
So it's back with Picassa 3, and I can't understand why Google has done away with it as it was so easy to use, all the others are so complicated compared to that one as I'm not good with measurements.
Also some had very small writing which I couldn't enlarge, and I couldn't read the program with my eye problems.

Back in September my daughter asked me to make a leaving card, and box for a colleague that was leaving.
So here is what I came up with as the person loves shoes, and handbags.




This is a 8"x8" size card, and box I made to match.
They wanted lots of little cards inside to write their individual greetings on, so the cards inside are 4"x4" in size.
The boots, and handbag are a
 CraftsUPrint download.
Decoupaged the the handbag, boots and the flowers.

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

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE








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

Thank you so much for your visits throughout 2018 especially this last couple of months when I couldn't visit you.
I really appreciate your support, and your lovely comments, and also get well wishes for hubby.

The kitchen is all finished now, and I have managed to just about get everything back into cupboards.
My craft room is still in boxes waiting for the New Heater to be fitted in the New Year.
I have had to get rid of my old very big desk, and buy a smaller one to accommodate the new heater.
It has been a good thing as my craft room needed a over haul, and tidy up, but it's been a lot of hard work, and being ruthless with crafting items I have had for many moons.
I can't wait to get crafting again, and blogging as it seems so long now since I have had chance to visit you all.
Mind you when it's all back together again do you think I will find anything???????

So I digress my main aim today is to wish everyone  A very Happy, Health, New Year.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE


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

May I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy, and Health New Year.

Thank you so much for all your visits, and wonderful comments that you all make on my work.

My bungalow is still  all upside down from my kitchen refurb, and my craft room is all in boxes waiting for the heating to be done in the New Year. 
I am getting lots of with drawl symptoms from not being able to craft.

Hubby has recently had another fit which has left him very unsteady again. 

I have had to have a smaller desk in my craft room to accommodate the new heater, and so I have changed computers with hubby, and lost my photo editing program of Picassa 3 as they no longer do that one,
So if anyone knows of a good, and easy one to use please let me know.


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

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES DT.............ANYTHING CHRISTMAS


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

I used white Hunkydory plain card to emboss this on, and then I sprayed it with Crafters Companion Pearl Diamond Sparkle Spray to give it the pearlised sheen.
Then I added some waxes which I have had for many a year in various colours to the different areas, and then finally adding some red pearls for the berries, and a little black stone to the Robins eye.
The greeting sentiment was a buy from The Works.

ANOTHER QUICK CHRISTMAS CARD


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

Firstly I must apologise for not visiting you, but on top of my Hubbies health problems the housing association in our sheltered housing scheme are modernising the kitchens, and the storage heating system.
Good news this maybe, but it's causing me such a lot of extra work at a time I don't need it.
They start work on the kitchen on the 26th of November so everything has been pulled out of cupboards, and such.
They are also fitting in new storage heaters, and I am getting one in my craft room which I haven't had before only an expensive one to run at the mo, this means a big move around of my craft room to accommodate the work.
I can't believe how much stuff I have thrown out so far. LOL.
Well I have been making cards for over 20 years now so you do accumulate quite a lot in that time.
Not sure when things will be back to normal, but you will know when I start posting more regularly.

In the meantime here is quick Christmas card I made before all the upheaval.


This is a DL size card.
The image if the door is a Hunkydory one just added some snow, and the die cut wreath from their Moonstones Die, and some gems to make it glitter.

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

A QUICK CHRISTMAS CARD


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

Hubby is still quite weak, but has lots more colour in his cheeks now.
He is on his last week of injections, and hopefully will improve from then on.
We may have to try,  and get some physio for his right arm and leg as they are still very weak, and he has to think carefully when using them as it doesn't seem to come naturally to him any more.
This week he has had a heart monitor on for a week too so they can look at what's going on there.
Things are very hectic with Hospital appointments, and as he always helped me so much around the house I am having to do it all which is quite exhausting.
As I don't sleep too well with my RLS I quite often can be crafting at night.
Here is a quick card I made.


This is a 4"x4" size card.
The paper with the forest scene is Hunkydory, and the fox is a freebie stamp which I stamped with Izink Ink, and water coloured with the the Izink Inks, and then added some black sharpie for the eyes, snout, and the edge of the paws.
I also added some white gel pen to his tail, ears, and his neck.
Then I created a shadow under his body with Memento London Fog Ink.
Forgot to say I fussy cut him out and adhered him to the scene.

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

CHRISTMAS CARD


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

Update on Hubby we have now found out by phoning the Doctor, and saying he was still very tired, and just walking to the bathroom was exhausting him, that he is Anaemic, very low in Vitamin B12, and Folic Acid.
This showed up on his bloods they took at the Hospital when in AE, but nothing was done about it.
Gives you real confidence in the health system doesn't it.
He is now having B12 injections twice a week, and taking iron tablets, and folic acid ones.
Hopefully we will see some improvement soon.

While looking after him I have sneaked a few odd hours in the evening when I am not exhausted myself to catch up on some Christmas cards.
So I was delighted to see the Allsorts Challenge this week was Christmas.
So here is one of my makes.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
The paper on the front is Hunkydory I just added some snow bought from Mrs Duck's craft shop which you will find a link to on the right side of my blog if you are interested.
The VW car with the Christmas Tree is a freebie stamp from Creative Stamping  Magazine.
I stamped it with my Misti, and Versafine Ink and then heat embossed it with black embossing powder.
Coloured it with Promarkers, and then cut it out and glued it to the scene.
I used Memento London Fog to create the tyre marks in the snow.
Just remembered I forgot the snow on the car, and tree. LOL.
The sentiment was also a freebie stamp, and the inside verse was one too.
The lovely stitched squares inside were a buy from my winnings at the Allsorts Challenge, and are from Swedish House Crafts. 

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really appreciate your visits especially as I haven't had time to reciprocate.
Lots of crafty love.   JENNY. 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

THANK YOU CARD


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

Thank you so much for your well wishes on my hubbies health probs.
The outcome is that he did have another stroke back a month ago, and we weren't told till he visited the TIA Clinic on a follow up consultation last Tuesday he was then prescribed a fit medicine for the problem caused on the Saturday night when we spent so many hours at AE.
This caused him more symptoms just like he was having another stroke.
He currently can't use his right arm properly or his right leg and has to walk with a walking frame for small amounts as he gets very worn out.
So I won't be about much as I have look after him quite a lot.

In the meantime here is a Thank You card I made to say thank you to you all.
I won the stamps I used on a good blog friends posts where she often offers a card or stamps to her peeps that comment so if you are interested in visiting her, and I must say it is well worth a visit here is her blog.
http://www.poppyfieldcardcrafts.com/ 



This is a 6"x6" size card.
The background is created DOInks.
Then I used Versafine Ink for the stamped design.
