Edwin with Sledge

I made this card yesterday for my son Jack for christmas, i think after putting the christmas tree and decorations up in the house I had finally caught the christmas card making bug ! I also attatched a small pocket inside the card so that i can put in some money, now my children are getting older wanting a few prezzies AND some money seems to be the teenage way of christmas !
I once again paper pierced the plain cardstock and im certainly getting my money's worth from the SU mat pack and tool, i just can't seem to put it down.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend and thanks for stopping by

Hello, I just wanted to say THANKYOU to all my blogging friends for their kind words, they were really appreciated. I decided to take my mind off things and make a card.

A Little Craft Class !

This is my son Jack and his friend Curtis. They pestered me everyday last week to learn them how to make cards. I finally relented and they decided on stamping and colouring. Here is a picture of their finished cards.


They made one card each and Im quite impressed with their cards. They used SU cardstock, SU Cheers to You stamp set, and dotty red ribbon from stash. They didn't hang around to tidy up though !
I did have a card to post but the light got the better of me so i will post it tomorrow. Have a great evening.

Have a great evening

Flight Of The Butterfly

This is one of the cards I managed to make whilst my hubby was away at a conference. It felt strange not using my copic markers and not colouring in ! I havent had much time for cardmaking lately and my Magnolia Summer kit hasnt seen ink yet which is unusual as i have been known to ink them as soon as they have dropped through the door. Jules rang me on Wednesday night to tell me my SU order had arrived and these gorgeous stamps were in that order. They are just the yummiest. I did cut the butterflies out by hand though as i wanted a little bit of white around the edge. I havent added a sentiment yet but i think it will be for my Aunties birthday next week.

Materials :

Stamps - SU Flight of the Butterfly
Papers - SU Cottage Wall
Cardstock- SU : Orchid Opulence,Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry

A Fab Holiday and a Job

I arrived back from my hols on Monday night. Here is a picture of the gorgeous villa I have been staying in in Turkey over the last 2 weeks. We had a fab time and the weather was hot. We spent alot of time cooling off in the pool. I found out whilst i was on hols that i got a 2:2 for my degree classification, I was so chuffed as I didnt expect such a great result. Whilst I was on holiday i also recieved an e-mail inviting me for an interview for a job I had applied for. I had my interview on Tuesday morning and i recieved a phone call Tues evening to say I GOT THE JOB.
Im really excited im going to be a school immunisation nurse giving the new HPV vaccine to girls aged 15-18.
No card for today as Im still washing and unpacking suitcases ! Hopefully I will have a card ready for the weekend.

A New Baby Girl Card

Good morning, hope you are all enjoying your weekend. Its my last week of my hospital placement this week, I have been there 16weeks now and will miss going.

The papera are SU 'Sweet Always'. The large circle and scallop are from Nestabillities and cut using my Cuttlebug.

Surfer Edwin and a Little Space of my Own

Hi everyone, hope your all having a good week. I have been off placement this week and its been lovely to spend some time at home with Megan and Jack. Tomorrow we are going to Scarborough and Whitby on a daytrip. This is what inspired me to make this card with the Magnolia Summer kit stamps. He is Surfer Edwin and is coloured using Copic Markers. The papers are from the Basic Grey 'Lime Rickey' collection. The colours are so bright and cheery. I used SU cardstock for matting and layering and the sentiment is also SU. The flowers are my favourite Prima Hydrangea's with a little spacer from my friend Nikki's online shop(there is a link on my sidebar) and I added a little Papermania brad.


A big THANKYOU to everyone who left me lovely comments about my graduation, and to celebrate I am putting together a celebratory blogcandy which i will post details within the next few weeks.


My hubby finally finished my loft which I have hijacked as a crafting room here is a picture

Its empty at the moment I am in the process of packing all my stash (which is taking up the dining table) into boxes so i can transfer it upstairs. Its only a small space but ITS ALL MINE ! The other half of the room is for the computer but im sure in time I will claim it.

Edwin and Lizard

Good evening hope your all well. This weekend was our student ball at one of the hotels in Leeds. I had a really good time, but boy did I have a cracking hangover yesterday. It took me until 8pm last night to feel almost human again. I know self inflicted as my hubby says -no sympathy there !

What a Laugh !

Good morning hope your all well. The sun is shining here in Leeds, looks like its going to be a gorgeous day.
I went to Julies SU workshop on Saturday and here is one of the cards we made in the male cards class. Julie spoils us with yummy home made muffins and this week she made a huge coffee and walnut cake. It was a great day and I had a great time with Vicky.

This card was made using SU Rainbow Sherbert papers and the Cheers to You stamp set. The circles and scallops are also cut from SU punches. The card stock is Tempting Turquiose and Green galore.
I may have a lack of posts over the next few weeks as i have my final dissertation to do for my degree, so not much time for crafting. I will however try to visit your blogs as often as i can.

I had a fabulous time yesterday at the copics workshop in Leeds with Maddy and Rachel. I met some wonderful new friends, and learnt how to colour and shade using copics. Maddy is a great teacher. Above are the images we coloured at various stages of colouring/shading.

We had a lovely lunch with a very large piece of chocolate cake ! The hints and tips were very helpful and I even met a superstar !

Yes you guessed it, Calvin the mouse was hiding amongst the crafting goodies. He is sooooo cute.

Here is my finished card i was very pleased with the finished result.

Thanks Maddy and Rachel I enjoyed every minute and it was lovely to meet you both.

Anya Goes Shopping

My daughter Megan asked me to make a card for her best friend Amy. So we sat down with all my stamps and papers. One hour later she chose an Anya stamp, im glad really as these gorgeous girls have yet to see ink. The papers are 'Sweet Always' by SU. I mounted the paper on to some chocolate chip SU cardstock. Anya is coloured using copic markers. The grosgrain ribbon was bought at my local craft store along with the handbag charm. The flowers were cut from a Papershapers punch and I added a white Papermania adhesive pearl to the centres. The sentiment is by SU. This is the inside

I just love decorating the inside of my cards. It uses up all the scraps (that i would normally save and do nothing with !) and it makes it a little bit more special than opening up a blank card. Well have to go pack as we are going to Lincoln for the weekend.

Have a great weekend

Tilda With Lots Of Puppies

Good morning and I hope your enjoying your weekend whatever your up to. This card was made for a friend who has just bought two adorable puppies.

I stamped the image several times and cut out the extra puppies and coloured them in different shades of browns. The whole image is coloured with copic markers. The papers are from the Bo Bunny 'Sweetie Pie' collection. These papers are gorgeous and I love the pink/green combination. The flower is a Prima hydrangea and I added a spacer from Hobby House and a papermania brad. I added a puppy charm attached to a chain and jump ring that was purchased from Hobbycraft . The leaves were punched from a L-Em punch.

The sentiment is computer generated and the 'Puppy love' sentiment is mounted onto an oval cut from a SU oval punch. As I have been so inspired by many of you that decorate inside your cards I decided to give it a try and heres the result

I really enjoyed decorating the inside using all the scraps and will now decorate inside all the cards I make.

Guitar Hanglar Boy

This card I made for my son Jack for his birthday. Its not while July, but Im back on my hospital placement on the 11th May (Im spending 16wks in the operating theatre, Im so excited !) so Im frantically trying to get as many cards done before then. The image is by Hanglar and was an extra I had left from a previous project they were sent to me by the very kind and talented Caz.
I coloured the image using copic markers and I seem to be getting the hang of blending the different shades and Im pleased with the result on this card. I tried to give the image a distressed look using Tim Holtz distress ink as the background was too white for the papers. I also added the ink to the sentiment as this was white too.The papers are from the Crate Paper ' Static Collection' and I also used Static Collection die cut shapes. The scallop oval and the oval punch are by SU. The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.

Thanks for visiting

The image is by Hanglar and is coloured using copic markers (and i managed to do some blending). The papers are from the 7 Gypsies 'Savannah' Collection. I used some Prima flowers and decorated them with some spacers from the Hobby House.
They have a fantastic range of spacers and charms available. I followed Bev's tutorial and decorated the card with a chain and a charm and I love the way this adds extra bling. The circle sentiment is from the 'In Circles' range from Craftwork Cards.
The mum sentiment is a Woodware stamp. I also used an SU scallop and circle punch.
Have a great evening

Sweet Hanglar Girl

Gosh Ive had a busy week. I have just got my results back for my last two assignments and I got passes for both of them, so Im a very happy bunny. The results also mean I have passed all my academic work for the last three years without any re-sits or re-submissions which is quite an achievement as im not a very academic person.
The image for this card is by Hanglar and she is coloured with copic markers. I added some Sakura stardust pen to the wings for added sparkle. The papers are from a DCWV paper pad called 'Nanna's Nursery' in girly colours. The flowers are by Prima (I just love these flowers) I added a small pearlised brad and a spacer to the centre. The charm was bought from e-bay. I used a Martha Stewart heart punch and a Paper shapers punch to add some decoration.

I will be having a blogging break for two weeks as my husband has booked a surprise holiday to Portugal (not a surprise now) over the easter holidays. He said it was a break for all my hard work over the last year and for nearly completing my nurse training -awwwh bless him. Megan and Jack are ecstatic and packing as I blog. I will visit you all when I get back.

Have a great Easter
