Keep on Gilding!

I can't stop playing with my new sunshine gold and peacock gilding flakes and dandelion stamps, I'm almost tempted to get out my Christmas stamps for more gilding - but I try not to start Christmas cards until September when the weather starts to cool down a bit!

New Plaything - Gilded Flakes!

My Mum and I went to the Papercraft Fair yesterday in Bury St Edmunds and she bought me some great early birthday presents!

I was impressed by the Indigo Blu demonstration of their Gilding Flakes and bought a couple of tubs and their glue and had fun making these cards! 

She also treated me to a new stamp, so I thought this lovely dandelion head from Personal Impressions would look nice gilded up.



I am really impressed by these products -I'm guessing that I won' be able to resist getting some more of their yummy colour schemes to make some Christmas cards with.

Daisy & Dandelion Cards

This months edition of Simply Cards and Papercraft has a pad of  20 free Dandelion & Daisy images. They are not really my cup of tea, but I thought I would have a go and use them to make more cards for the Cancer Campaign charity (see previous post).

I just bought some Spectrum Noir pens, so it seemed a good excuse to use them too!

I thought I would also  *cough*  modestly mention that a card of mine is featured in the same mag to celebrate their 100 issue. I always get a bit of a thrill to see my name in print. It's the closest I will get to being famous!
