Christmas card

Hi fellow crafters
Todays card is made using small squares cut, using a sizzix die, from a background I made using acetate, alcohol inks and tissue paper. I cut 3 small squares and added a small peel off star. This was set on 3 askew strips cut from a toning co ordinations card. The same peel offs were used atthe top and bottom of the card.
Happy crafting

Chriistmas card

Hi fellow bloggers
Still decluttering - ever wished that some ideas are not the best !! Still it will get completed although my target date is now flexible so still on the very quick cards
This card couldn;t be simpler as it is using a sizzix card maker die. I have used a sizzix embossing folder to emboss some co ordinations card as a background for the card front cut from silver mirri card.
Happy crafting

Thankyou card

Hi again fellow bloggers
Todays card is made using a Tim Holtz embossing folder which I used the letter press technique using a yellow distress ink pad. The flower is a scrap booking kit embellishment from my stash and I used a spellbinders die to cut the sentiment in 2 colours and offset them together.
Happy crafting

hi fellow bloggers
I hope you are managing to get some crafting time, I am grabbing some odd bits of time while still continuing to declutter. However just having time to make really quick cards.
This card is using 2  Sweet Dixie dies, Snowman and snowflakes, that I bought as part of a set from the craft channel here in the UK [one of a choice of 3 channels], I used organza ribbon and glitter card for the background. The sentiment was an orphan clear stamp on a tonic diecut. Promarkers were used to colour some areas of the snowman
Happy crafting

Thankyou card

Hi again fellow bloggers
Hope you have had some time for crafting today.
Going through my stash I am discovering dies and stamps that  I forgot I had :)
This card  used another Sizzix die that has the look of  a Rennie McIntosh design about it I think,
I used 2 shades  of blue card by DCWV.
The image was stamped/coloured with denim adirondak ink and the sentiment is another die cut - this time from spellbinders.

Happy crafting :)

Hi fellow bloggers

This weeks LiM theme is for insects or spiders so decded to go for a pretty insect that reminds me of better weather Lol!

I have used distress inks for shading the die cut  mats [from spellbinders] and the stamped image.http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/challenge-298-theme.html

LiM turquoise and lilac

Hi fellow crafters
Here is my entry for ttis weeks colour theme. I have used a tonic diecut in lilac/mauve paper and petal point pigment ink in turquoise. I have clear embossed the petal shapes to add some dimension and enhance the colour. The sentiment is set into an embossed circle that I made with a 10p coin as nothing else was to hand and the declutter process means I am unable to find things!! The added gems on the butterfly diecut are from a docrafts goody bag. This time I decided to decorate the envelop with toning ribbon and butterfly punchies.
