How hot is it today???? I've got the back door open, all the internal downstairs doors open, even the front door has been left ajar to let the breeze go through the house. Today I was going to sit and do some ironing, but I gave that idea up as a bad one after only going to hang out washing....I was melting and that was before 11am. So instead I've been on facebook....and it's very addictive, especially since I've got some like minded crafty friends now on my page.
I've not been up to much in the way of crafting, in fact I'm behind again in making cards for birthday clubs, but what I have made you can see below.
I made this really quick as it was needed for the next day before the receipient went camping with cubs. He loves playing Guitar Hero on the Wii, and this was the nearest to a guitar I could get...peeloff guitar was stuck onto card and cut around, stuck on to plain square silver holographic card with sticky pads, both silver and gold squares were die cut with Go Kreate dies. The musical happy birthday stamp is from Butterfly Kisses.
This is another edgy album from Bo Bunny that I made for a friend, for obvious reasons I haven't shown the inside fully due to the fact that her family don't want to be shown.
This one was for my stepfather's birthday, I put a sheet of tin foil through the cuttlebug using one of the new 7" x 5" embossing folders 'Jamara'.....only problem was the foil was too thin and cracked in some places, luckily you couldn't really see them, Ive since bought thicker foil. I then rubbed over the foil with nail varnish remover to take some of the 'gold' colouring off. Border edge done with Martha Stewart 'Embossing Zig Zag' punch. Original idea using foil was by Shirley Drew at Craft Inspirations, Sutton Coldfield. I'll be putting craft workshop cards on later on in the week.
I had one of my monochrome moods again, plus I love this image. White card was run through the cuttlebug using 'Swiss Dots' embossing folder, it was then edged with Martha Stewart 'Floral Vine' deep edger punch, swirly curly corner bits were made using Cuttlebug 'Vintage' die...this is one from a set of 4. Plain and scalloped circles were made with nesties. The image is by Great Impressions 'Frollicking Trio' G342. Sentiment from craftwork Cards.
I love love love this image, and was perfect for a 1st birthday, it was coloured with copics and was from Lili of The Valley 'Ballon Bunny' S116. Die cut shape was nesties again 'Labels 6'. Pink paper from Craftwork Cards flowers and ribbon from stash.
Made using an 8" x 8" card from Craftwork Cards. The so gorgeous image is from Lili Of The Valley 'Fairy on Tip Toe' S109 and was coloured again with copics and die cut shape is a nestie 'Labels 9'. Edge was punched with Martha Stewart 'Daisy' edge punch, while the middle was done with the 'Floral Vine' punch. Paper is from Bella Press BP-AP-KR02 'Wavy Flowers' and Papermania 'Amethyst Infusion'. Charm and small roses from stash, larger flowers from Prima Christmas Bubble Purple. Sentiment from Craftwork Cards.
Right, time to bath the child known as Shane, who for the first time is going to have a shower, only because I've convinced him he'll be hot and sticky when he gets out the bath, plus I need to hurry as my man is on tv soon......the god known as Michael Buble........sigh!

This card is more or less the same as the one on a previous post, only difference is I didn't punch a border. The corners were made with a Cuttlebug Die that's one of a set of 4 and the bits that came out were stuck around the circle..JPG)
I'm off to bed as I've had toothache since yesterday, but I'm hoping I escape a visit to the dentist, as it hasn't been as painful as it was yesterday.
