What Shape do You Prefer?

What shape do you make most of your cards in - do you prefer square, the long DL, C6 or more unusual shapes?

I find most of mine are the rectangular C6 size (4 x 6 inches), but sometimes the design leads to a square or tall card. 

I have tried to make a few stepper cards - but just find them too fiddly!

Wooden Birdcage Birthday Card

Another card with little wooden embellishments - this time a cute birdcage. The background paper was from Hot Off the Press and must have been in my stash for at least 5 years!

Bird Cage Embossing

A couple of similar but slightly different cards using the new birdcage and swirl embossing folder that came free with Mays issue of Quick Cards Made Easy Magazine - which lived up to its name, because these cards were very quick and easy to make!

I've got a family 'get together' tomorrow but nothing in the diary for Bank Holiday Monday, so planning for a bit of a crafting session that day - hope you all can get a bit of crafting too this weekend!    Dawn

A Bird in a Cage

I've teamed up a free image from Making cards mag with some fab silver and black swirly paper from Red Hot Bed to make this birthday card for a friend. The birdcage is matted onto black and silver to really make it stand out!

More Birdcages and Chandeliers

More cards made with the lush papers papers from Making Cards magazine,

I'm crafting while I can because tomorrow we are starting to fit a new bathroom, everything is being torn out and replaced from top to bottom - I'm expecting lots of mess and dust over the next few days!

I love Saturday afternoons!

...because I normally get some time to craft! Hubby is watching football, son out visiting mates, daughter playing with her toys and the 3 cats are fast asleep.

I had to go into town to buy daughter a Brownie uniform this morning as she enrols soon and guess what .....the uniforms are sold in my local craft shop! The latest edition of Making Cards magazine fell into my basket as it has these lovely bird cage and chandelier papers in it. I also stocked up on double sided tapes as you can never have too much of the stuff, can you?
