From This .........

 

to this......

I've been using up more of the scrapbooking paper kits that I was given back in January to make some more birthday cards for charity. Before .....

and after .....

and finally, a fun Dinosaur card from this pack

Peel Off Cards continued .......

 

Here's a type of card I don't make very often! Although the peel off cars are Sports or Classic cars, it seems to work well for passing your  driving test.

And here's a cute green peel off froggy trying to catch a fly

And finally, some birthday party themed peel offs against a bright, multi-coloured patterned paper

Peel Off Cards

 

I've now made so many more cards with the big pile of peel offs that were gifted to me in April

There were lots of butterflies, sentiments and flowers

In lots of different colours, some were holographic!

Forced me to make different styles of cards from my usual, including several masculine and childrens' cards - still lots of peel offs left for when inspiration strikes again!

A Special Card

 I was asked to make a card for a lady who had reached the grand old age of 105!

I dug out lots of gold mirri card and some dies to make this for her - apparently she loved it! Not a good photo , but the best I could get with all the reflections.

I've also been gifted lots of peel offs from someone who has given up card making, 4 were used in the corners of this card.

A Kind Gift

 I was kindly gifted a carrier bag full of scrapbooking papers, frames, photo mats, stickers and alphabets by Creative Memories (a USA Company)  by a friend of my Mother

There are lots of duplicates papers and packages,  and not in the usual style that I would choose

So I have had to be creative and come out of my comfort zone to utilise them

and despite have made over 30 cards from them so far, there is still much, much, much more left !

New Year, New Stamp, New Cards

 

Floral Oval Frame & Masks

Treated myself to a new stamp from Honey Doo Crafts - the Floral Oval Frame with the Oval Mask & Stencil Set which were in the sales. Was delivered within 2 days, so very impressed!

Made several cards with the stamps and stencil in different colourways this morning, lovely crisp images with super sentiments to go with them!

Wishing you all a happy, healthy and crafty 2025
