Kidz got talent

Early last year I was having a go at
Decoupage, as you will have seen if you have had a look through my blog before!

This time a card for my eldest nephew
not the best of photo's, can't really see that image is decoupaged, and I only took one photo!

Hello, I'm back again!

You might say the same about the image, but it's one that I 
just love to colour, and so good for any age of Male Birthday Cards!  
Maybe next year I might have another bear from Di's Digi website.

Good Evening

Eh me, Jack Frost is out the night!  Was out out for a long run, and there was quite a few icy patches on the pavements, and a few squeaky oooooh's as I was running, but I kept my footing, and home to post a card for you!


This is image of a male in a Mauy Thai pose (martial art)
just a simple male card.

Thanks for looking

Why do weekends pass so quickly?  
Think I will have Monday-itis tomorrow,

Get on with the post, tonight I have another Decoupage card I did at the beginning of last year.  Unfortunately my Disk Drive of computer is unwell, so have been unable to use the Debbie Moore Disk that I got this image from, maybe one day

Hearts, Hearts, Hearts (continued from Sneak Peak)

Hi there, I was teasing you a few weeks ago (maybe I should say months ago) with a sneak peak.  Seen this on other blogs, and 
thought I would do the same.......

......... why not?


Well I am back today to let you know what I have been up to!
One of my friends was getting married, she wanted to make her own wedding stationery, but after purchasing the card, ribbon, gems etc I had an SOS phone call.  She had handcut out a heart - but didn't feel it was good enough to stick on front of the invites.  I had to agree with her, she wanted to know how I cut hearts.  So I volunteered to rescue her, by agreeing to cut, print and fold, as she still wanted to be the Bride that made the invitations.

My job - Cut 200 hearts of each size, (so there was 600 hearts)
print the inserts
and cut/fold card to size.

And now....

... a guest designer.....

Mrs K Sim.... aka the Bride....



What do you think?
For someone who has never made cards - she has done a good job!


So, once I was finished, there was a few offcuts
and below is a picture I made for the Happy Couple.

I only have a photo of the end result - before it was framed!!


ingredients:  4 different embossing folders,
 computer for wording,
 flower punch,
 butterfly punch
 1 gem
