My Godson

So today I want to show you the page I have made for my Godson, Cody. He is such a cutie pie!!

I have used the train set going across the page. for the smoke coming out of the train I have used the itty bitty punch set and used that for the flowers aswell. I have used an embossing tool to go over the flowers on a soft matt to give them a 3D effect.



My Scrapbook is finally coming together! Got loads more to do though!!!

Nephews!

Today I want to show you a page that I have made about my nephews.

I love these photos of them and the one with their masks makes me smile all the time.

I have used chipboard for the letters and covered with paper now I am not very good at this and pretty sure there must be something that I am doing wrong with this! They are a mess but I have tried and from a distance you can't see the mess they are! hehe!!

Cocktail Time...

I started my scrapbook a few months ago, did one page and left it at that. Now I have my craft bug back I decided I really need to carry it on!



I love these two colours - Old Olive green and Rich Razzleberry - they are just lush and look so lovely together!

The page is about my friend, Mel and me having a love for cocktails - when ever we visit each other (they live in Durham and we are in Plymouth) we have to have cocktails. I have used the photos from our cocktails to show this. The little flowers are from the Itty Bitty set and look lovely with abit of bling!

Quite simple but cute!

Whale of a Time

Foxy Lady

Ok so I decided that after getting going I would continue with my quest to find the craft bug and play around with an idea I have had for a while. Wanted to keep it simple as I think this is sometimes where I go wrong with over complicating things.



Simple but effective I think!

Slowly getting back!!

I have been away for a few months trying to get my craft bug back. Summer is always a difficult time for me to get motivated and with our new garden being all finished I have spent most of my time out there (if I haven't been working!) So I am sorry that I haven't been around but I am slowly starting to get my craft bug back!!

It started yesterday when I needed something to do but didn't even know where to start let alone what to make. Then I remember something that I seen and played around and this is what I came up with...

I am a massive fan of the keep calm stuff and have seen this sloggan around on a few peoples blogs. I love it and going to get Mark to put it on my wall in the craft room (spare room!!)

Today I have had a play with the owl punch that I love so much and made a wedding card taken inspiration from a blog I have seen but cannot remember whos!



Right I am off for a cuppa and another surf to get some inspiration for a little girls birthday card!

Hope to be back sooner that last time!!

Wedding Wheels

I love this stamp for a wedding - its so different but so simple and looks amazing!

I have stamped the bride and groom in Old Olive and mounted it all up using some designer paper and added some Old Olive ribbon. I think it looks great!

Don't forget not long now till my stall at Plym Valley Railway line - Why not bring the kids down have a ride on the train and a look around the crafty stalls!

Choo Choo!

I have made some lovely cards using the Choo Choo set and the matching Wheel. They are just so cute I cannot get enough of them!!

To change it up abit I have added some animales from the Fox and Friends set and the Party this way is from the set called Party This Way!

I have made these in to some invites for my friends little boy who is going to be 2 in a few weeks time, I didn't use the animals though as only thought of that after and wish I had now! Never mind!! They look so good and I am so pleased with them.

If you are interested in any invites for that special party then why not contact me and see what I can come up with or you could come and learn how to make them yourself. Just contact me at moley44@hotmail.com

Fathers Day Beer!

So today I want to show you the other Fathers Day card that I have made for my little stall in two weeks. I have used the Cheers To You set and stamped out the beer and cut around them. I have used some designer paper for the layering and the stars and stamped out the word Dad. Very simple but quite effective I think!
And here it is in a different colour way
Don't forget to pop by on Sunday 12th June at Plym Valley Railway in Plympton. Would be great to see you all there!

Fathers Day

Fathers day isn't that far away so I have made a start on some cards.
I have used the trendy trees stamp to make the background and some designer paper to make the shirt. I have used a sentiment from a non SU set and the card its mounted on isn't SU either

Heres it in a different colour way

I am going to be selling these  on my stall at Plym Valley Railway, Plympton, Plymouth on 12th June if you are passing then swing by and say hello!
