Gorguss Twilight Cards

Some more cards made with the fab Twilight Kingdom background papers - this time matched with the free Gorjuss stickers that were free with Creativity Magazine

A space of my own.....

As my son has now moved out to be with his girlfriend, we now have a spare bedroom which I have rapidly converted into a craft room! 

It is lovely to have a space of my own - but moving all my papers, embellishments, ribbons, inks, stamps, die cuts, scissors and card blanks in made me realize how much stash I have for this hobby that was supposed to help me save money! I know it looks a bit messy but it is great to have everything to hand.

I have had to invest in a new desk lamp but it is wonderful to be able to keep all my bits and pieces out and not tidy them away after a crafting session. Hopefully it will spur on my creativity so I can make even more cards and atc's!

Strictly Party !!

I found myself really enjoying colouring in these new 'Strictly Party' stamps that are free with the Docrafts Creativity Magazine. Just adding a bit of glitter glue to the flowers or hem of the dress really seemed to make them sparkle!

I was also struggling to use this paper with a tropical surfboard on it until I turned it sideways for the girl to step off!

Wellington & the Docrafts Goodie Bag

I only went to The Range to get a copy of the Creativity Magazine but the new Wellington Docrafts Goodie bag fell into my basket too. 


So, guess what, last night was spent playing with the contents and making several of these cards.After doing some (essential) housework I'm hoping to spend more time crafting today . 


The only thing I wasn't sure about were the bright yellow flowers that were in the bag - they just are too garish to go with the papers!

Creativity Bubbles Card

These Bubble Shopping stamps were free with the latest docrafts Creativity magazine that I picked up from The Range yesterday. Not something I would normally buy, but they are quite fun.

I was very good and didn't buy the Goodie bag, but I was very tempted, however I have stacks of paper and embellishments that I must use up first before I can justify any more purchases

Made this for a shopping mad friend whose birthday is coming up soon.
