Lime & Green again

This is definitely a great colour mix - I am entering it for the LiM challenge as my third entry of the week

  [The mark is on the camera screen - oops!]


This time I have used a plain black oblong with rounded corners to underlay the Martha Stewart punched border and then used a Creata heart frame on top with a love sentiment inside the bottom of the heart. The other touch is 2 black card candi
                                    at either end of floral strip.                                 

Creata and Cricut -

Hi fellow bloggers
still trying to make xmas cards - where does the time go? Any way two quickies as in my quest to use stash found a papermania pad.

The side die is one that Carley showed on C&C - it is really nice and looks great with mirror board only couldn't find the colour I wanted so used a plainer colour that I think goes well with the background paper. The pot is hand cut. I do love that tree although just noticed the second one has an uncut

Sweet Stamping Challenge - white on white

 Hi fellow bloggers hope you are having a good day. I have entered the above challenge this week as white on white is not something I have tried before.. I have used some of my dies - creata heart and spellbinders [cut out on my bigshot] - , kanban white card and centura pearl white, black archival inkpad, kanban rose stamp, white spotted organza ribbon and 2 of my cuttlebug embossing folders [script and swiss dots for the smaller embellishments]. Not forgetting the doily cut from a die [ this is a difficult die to get a good clean cut from so don't use it very often.I have left a space for a sentiment in the bottom r/h corner

early valentine!!

Hi fellow bloggers - another wet Monday sadly - when will the sun come back?
Anyway as the craft programmes keep bringing christmas crafting shows earlier and earlier I thought I'd leap ahead to valentines Lol! This was originally going to be my LiM entry minus the ribbon and with a smaller mat but changed my mind and went for a slightly less CAS. The heart with the text is raised up on pads after having the ribbon attached -I think this would look nice with lace too.

I have used:

• a large script stamp
• black memento ink
• black handmade paper
• white organza ribbon
• 2 free stamps from craft stamper [The text one is just part of a larger stamp
• distress ink pad by ranger
• creata heart dies
