Pink castle


This card is for my friends daughter who turned 5 yesterday. She loves pink, fairy's and castles, so this was hopefully the perfect card for her. I have used some glitter on the front on the castle and the background paper and inside I used it again for the swirls from the fairy's wand!

Niagara Falls


Water is the theme on craftaway a sunday, so I decided I would try a scrapbook page for the 1st time so here it is. I have used a swirl stamp using versamark ink on the background but the photo doesn't show it. This memories mean a lot to me as I went to Canada on my own & with out knowing anybody when I got there. I'm quite a shy person and to me this was some achievement.

Mums Birthday cards


The top card I have used a dragon stamp from stamposaurus. I used versamark and gold embossing powder and used sakura souffle pens for the colour. For the back ground I used the Sprizter shown here for an airbrush effect. (I bought my from my local craft shop).
The bottom card I googled an image and printed it out and used a silver pen to edge around the elephants. I used black stazon and white shrink plastic.

Christening Card


This is a quick and simple card to make (After I made my own backing paper with the word christening over and over again) printed onto vellum in grey. I used gold peels off the the message and I used stamps for the hands and embossed them in gold.

Birthday card

A bit of decoupage for this one and some peel offs. (I know not all crafters like peel offs but I think sometimes they can finish the card off, they are useful for quick and easy cards too!)

Fairy Atc and Forest Box







The idea behind this is that fairies live in the forest and this is what I came up with for a circle of friends for August for Audrey.
You cant see it on the pictures but I used Sakura silver stardust pen with water so all the panels are sparkly (like fairy dust! if you believe that is lol!!!!!)
I hope you like it Audrey!

Exploding box - for a baby girl










As you can see this is for a baby girl.
I have used some baby stamps and pink card stock and embellished each square with some kind of baby themed stamp. I have coloured them in using whisper strokes pens.
The lid have used tea bagged folded papers and a pink teddy button for the center and I used shrink plastic for the dangling bits with some silver thread and pink and white beads.
For the top layer I decided to leave space for all the details, Name, date, weight and time.
To finish inside the box I was kindly given a template for the shoe and the idea to put the shoe in the middle from Fran.
