Quick and Easy

I loved using this Edge Die. 

It was very quick, once you worked out

the angle you wanted it to be on!

I used white and red glitter card, both bought

in Hobbycraft in Norwich.

Added a few drops of Nuvo Crystal drops for the berries.

Loved the result and no glitter all over my desk!

Thanks for stopping by, as I know you must

all be very busy at the moment.

I feel very strange, as I don't have to be making 

things for Craft Fayres!!

I now have time to play with my clay and get some 

new ideas for next year. Also some mixed media 

canvases will be fun.

 I will love to read your messages you leave me.

I will now be getting back to your blogs too.

Big hugs,

A Diamond

A neighbour asked if I would make a card for

their friends' Diamond Wedding Anniversary.

So this what I came up with.

The glitter card I used was from Hobbycraft, 

as were some of the flowers.

The background is a pearlescent card I bought at 

Thetford Craft Show. I used a Craft Too A4 

Embossing folder on it.

This is the insert paper from my stash and 

the sentiment I printed on my computer.

The wording was given to me from

my neighbour.

As it was an 8" x 8" card, I made a box for it, as it was 

going to be hand delivered.

She thought it was far above what she thought 

it would be! It was the first card I have made for her.

She hasn't seen my cards other than their 

Christmas card I gave them last year!

Thank you for all your lovely messages you left

me on my last post.

My swirly patterend bauble is much better than

the one on my last post!!

It was a fiddle to make initially but got the hang of it now.

I was hoping it would take less fabric but it  

still took 92 x 2 inch squares!! 

In between my Christmas makes to sell, I have just 

finished doing a Cross stitch Advent Calendar

for my Grandson. I now have to get my 

sewing machine out and put all the pieces together!!

I will post it when it's finshed.

Big hugs,

Carol

Phew!!!

It seems ages since I posted on here!!

I suddenly realised, that as from next weekend, I have 

17 Craft Fayres to do and the last one is December 3rd!!!

So I have been busy making stock. 

Also making Christmas cards and decorations.

The 2 cards here are very quick and easy cards to make.

There are some lovely detailed dies around at the moment.

I do like these edge dies.

Sorry if I miss the odd post of yours but I will get to 

you asap. I do enjoy looking at your makes.

Thanks for taking the time to pop into my little blog.

Especially if you leave me a message, so 

I know you have been.

Big hugs, 

Carol
