Snow Day...

Well - compared to my North American and Canadian blog followers the snow we had last night was nothing! But the Brits are ill prepared for it and as we only get snow in the south once in a blue moon, and sometimes not from one year to the next, no-one goes to the expense of buying snow tyres.

I managed to get out of the estate I live on which hadn't been gritted, albeit tentatively! But when I got to the bottom of the hill I needed to go up to work, there were cars blocking the road and hazard lights flashing! With more snow due today... I am staying home!

I thought I would share another project with those Butterfly Framelits - this time teamed up, very successfully with the Flower Patch stamps and matching Dies...


Could never have fussy cut all those fiddly flowers!


Have you figured out how I made the box yet?


I used the new Treat Bag Thinlits. Cool!

Still here!

I thought I ought to post - I have been immersed in crafting for the past few days, finalising the cards we are going to make in the classes on the 26th Aug and 1st Sept... making gifts for the ladies attending class.

I've also been experimenting with 'stuff'.

You Little Furball was one of the sets I couldn't resist in the new annual catalogue.

I made a couple of cards with it the other day.


I used a masking technique and my Stampamajig to enable me to layer the flowers and get the little cat sat in amongst them (still LOVING the Flower Patch bundle)


Then I used my Stampamajig, again for this one... and some more masking.


Do you like the fact I turned this puss cat into a tabby with the Stampin' Write marker?



You'll also notice the Woodgrain embossing folder, new In-Colour ribbon and an old favourite, the Label Love stamp set and Artisan Label punch. Available as another great cost saving bundle!

I'll be back again soon - if you would like to see a video of any of these techniques - leave me a comment and I'll record one for you!

Flower Patch

I was so disappointed when Flower Patch was on backorder... but I can understand why, as it is a lovely set and sold out super quick - but it's available again now - and to have matching framelits is such a bonus!

If you want to order it and collect from me you have 4 hours before I place my order!

This was the first card I made using the new In-Colours:


Then I had a play with the framelits for this one:


Can you see how I cut out the flower to reveal the cardstock below - then I cut the middles from Gold Foil Sheet. Effective isn't it?


This final card is just straight forward stamping, I would have had to use a Stampamajig to get the placement right but these photopolymer stamps make it so much quicker.


We've got rotten heavy showers here today so I'm giving the dogs a day off and I'm off to craft!

Hope you have a fabby weekend! If you would like videos for any of the techniques on my blog - just let me know!
