This card was actually made using scraps of off cut cards!

Prisma Pencils to colour image

Xcut Flower in 2 sizes, finished with Gems

Home Bakes

A treat for Saturday!

At least they look like scones, and even better they actually taste like scones.

My mum is an excellent baker, I thought I was clever and would make a batch of scones using a recipe I had copied from mum, however the scones didn't rise, in fact they spread so much that they all touched.  They tasted lovely.  I took a sample to Mum, to see where I went wrong!  Found out it was a recipe she had written in her book, but never tried!  When my dad saw them, he thought I did a "grand job" with my shortbread.  

I have practiced since then, and am so proud every time they actually look like scones.

Anyone for a round of Golf?

Good Evening, really I should be saying good night, and going off to my bed, but I had already typed up this blog, and somehow lost it, so determined to post something before I hit the land of ZZZzzzzz!

The brief for the Card, Uncle is 60, Beer or Golf!

So I opted for a few images from Digital Stamp Boutique:

Alf Playing Golf & Sports Accents - Golf Ball Accent

So here is a preview of the main image!

Coloured using Prisma Pencils

I printed a futher image, and cut out the Golfing Trolley 

and layered this using sticky pads, I did the same with the oversized golf ball!
