I Am Addicted!!

I have been a busy bee.

I am addicted to the Magnolia stamps. at the minute painting like mad with the Tim Holtz distressing inks, both sold at running with scissors.

It is vary therapeutic and I am in my craft room every spare minute I have.

Although it has taken me ages to get the blending right but I am slowly getting there.

I will take some pics of them tomorrow and post them on the blog.

Cards

First of all here is a quick card I made for my Brother.



Here is a card I made for my mother in-law for her to give to her husband for their Ruby Wedding Anniversary as she was struggling to find one in the shops.

I also decorated the inside.

Here is the card for the in-laws from my husband and I.
Thanks for the inspiration Tracey.



And the inside.


That's all I have to share for now, Sorry I have been abscent for a while I can't really get used to blogging!

Olivia's Gift

Hi,

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, But I am back.
Here is a gift that I made for my cousin's baby as it was her Christening on Sunday, I took inspiration from a sign that is in Tracey's shop Running with Scissors and made this while I was at the crop on Saturday and I really enjoyed myself.
Thanks Tracey.
I also did some fabulous scrapbook pages at the class in the morning.


here is the box I made it was a bit of a rush job as I decided to make this 15 mins before leaving for the Christening, that is why there isn't much decoration.





















The papers that I used to decorate this were K & Company Sparkly sweet which I have had for ages and wondered what to use them for as I just wanted to look at them as they were to nice to use, but I have to start using all of my stash to make room for new.
The diamonds and pearls and ribbon I used were bought from Running with Scissors.
