Card for Mum's Birthday

I've been trying to make a card for my mum's birthday and it's taken me most of the week to make all the little bits and pieces.  This is mainly due to the fact that she kept walking in to chat to me so I had to hide it and then try again later!!!!

I decided to make another Butterfly easel card and to decorate it I used one of the lovely butterfly die cuts that Caroline over on MSE sent to me.  I coloured it orange with a promarker and then glittered it up.  I used Prima flowers and backing papers that I bought in the US.

Here it is


Football Birthday Card

Well seeing as it is the topic of this weekend, I've made a footie card!!  I used a feebie digi and coloured it with promarkers and used Anita's 3D Gloss on his football and boots.  I then made a rosette from ribbon and used a football image for the middle.  The backing paper was also a freebie!!  I really like the result and I am going to make a red version next!!!  Lovely for a little boy I think!


Bobble Rings

These are some rings that I made some time back.  They look much better on your finger than off as the beads fall into place and give a lovely sparkly effect.

Each lot of beads is attached separately so that they move freely.  They are also listed in my Facebook shop for £4.00 each if anyone is interested!!!  I have some more but need to photograph them!

A Get Well card and a Sock Kitty

I've been busy making a Sock Kitty this week and I am really pleased with the finished item!!!  The kitty took alot of stuffing and was abit fiddly in places but was worth the effort!!!  Here is a photo:



I also made a get well card for my Auntie Car as she has just had a major operation.  I made a spring card which I've never made before.  I really like these type of cards!!  I also used my fiskars eyelet setter for the first time as well for the flower tag and I got the sentiment from the net.  The flowered card was from paperbox and the flowers are Prima from the US!

Sock Girl

Well I thought it was time to have a look through my Stray Sock Book that I bought whilst in America.  There are some fab sock creatures in the book and here is one that I have just finished.  She is small but cute!!  I will be listing her on my Facebook shop and Folksy.

I also made another door hanger, this time using a more retro fabric with loveheart sweets printed on it.  Here it is:
