A card for an old friend


Another Peter Rabbit card for an old (well my oldest) friend. Just finished off with some ribbon from my stash which matches the card perfectly and a few gems.
Happy St George's Day to all, iy's also my Mum's Birthday.
Looking forward to today as the New Polkadoodles CD All Around Everywhere is being launced on Create & Craft, I have it on order already even though I've only seen a sneek peek so watch this space as it won;t be too long before I am making cards with the new CD, if you want a peek before then go here

My First Peter Rabbit Card


I just love my New Peter Rabbit CD from Crafters Companion, money being tight I could only buy the one so it had to be Peter.
Here is the first card I made, just a little A6 card, I just love the Peter Rabbit blue, this CD will be great when I need a card for a baby or toddler (I have already made one for a friend but who forgot to scan it!).
So here he is.

A card frenzy




I have been quite busy the last week or so and have managed to get quite a few cards done, a lot using some of my CDs, I am really hooked on using crafting CDs now, I have found the right kind of paper (I prefer a matt to glossy) and have the right settings on my pronter for my paper , as one of my favorite crafters, Joanna Sheen says "Get to know your printer".
Anyway I have started to scan my cards, I will put them on here just a few day a.
I have finished my Christmas cards so now can do anything else (Christmas is my least favorite type of card).
The first ones I have here are made using Crafter's Companion CDS (Boys n Girls, as most of the cards I make are for boys and girls anyway.

Animal Crackers



Are a really yummy biscuit snack they have in the USA but sadly we can't get them here...anyway thats not what this post is about lol
I have been using my Cds a lot lately to do crafting and it was time I made some more cards for kids. I have been using my Crafters Companions Boys and Girls CDs, I just loved the artwork on these toppers especially the cute animals. Some of them I have decoupaged up (not something I do very much) I have a large stock of animal print cardstock (from pouns shops) and they are great with the safari animals.
So here are the first 2 cards using the Zebra and Lion, all I need to do is add inserts and an age if needed.
More cards to be posted soon as I am busy doing Christmas cards and cards for the RAF out in Afghanistan, I heard about this via Tiwtter, a lovely fellow crafter called Cazz has organised this in her town, I did try and find somewhere close to home but to no avail and as my brother was in the RAF, I had to help.
If any crafters out there would like to send cards out to our Guys n Gals to send home to loved ones just go here
