CARD COMMISSIONS JUNE 2018

As promised, here are some pretty girly cards :-D

This first one was made using several die cuts and some Greek lace. The flowers were die cut and then tinted with cream ink.

This one was for a Greek lady. The papers and images are from SALT TOWN STUDIOS - Blue Skies Kit  and the card was constructed using a Bow Card Template from SANDRA's SCRAP SHOP.  I printed out the flower elements in different sizes and then fussy cut and layered them. All the bow elements were stitched on my sewing machine. I used assorted dies for the lacy bits and leaves.

I used flowers from SAMFLORA and a lovely floral die cut which was sent to me by a Blogging chum :-)  The kitty was stamped in orange in and then coloured with watercolour pencils. The stamp is from a set by 'Your Next Stamp ' and the Set is called ' Jessica's Kitten '. The background papers are from 1st Edition - ANIMAL ANTICS.

Well - I think that's it from me at the moment. Thank you for looking xxx

SOME MORE WORK.... CUTESY ALERT !!!

Hello Peeps,
Here we are at the start of another week and nearly at the end of September !! Where does the time go ????
I have been beavering away recently making another load of card commissions and here is the first one I would like to show you.

This is another bow card - which have become really popular here on my little Greek island since I made the first one a couple of months ago !!!
Many thanks go to  SANDRA STRIJLAND   for designing the awesome PDF template for this fabulous design. I just can't stop making them. It takes me about 4 hours if I do all the stitch work and stuff, and make a box but I do love this design.

Now, those of you who know me........ don't faint with shock that I actually own a Tilda stamp !!!!! YES - it's true :-D  I have a couple of them hiding away in a dark corner of the 'cutesy' dungeon hahahaha :-D

This card is for a 1st birthday and the proud parents call her their 'Little Princess' so I thought this card would be deserving of a Princess Tilda. I coloured her with Promarkers. I used papers from my scrapbooking box and cut out some butterflies to which I then added glitter. I stitched all the DPs onto the base cards using my sewing machine. I must admit that this time she wasn't very happy about it, but then I have made about 10 of these puppies during August and Sept, so she's worked hard. !!! 

The little no.1 balloon is actually pink miri card but that obviously doesn't photograph well due to the reflective surface, but I can assure you it is a vibrant fuchsia pink :-D

I will show you the others I did over this week when I get my photographs organised :-)

Thanks for popping in.

MY CARD ORDER FINISHED :-)

Hello Peeps and happy weekend !! :-)
Here's what I have been working on recently.

I saw this Double Bow card the other day on Fiki's Blog at BAD KITTY'S CRAFT ROOM and I just had to go buy the File.... it's just fabulous and so versatile. I used it for one of the wedding cards on order and made another more Goth style.

I downsized the bow for the Goth card but forgot to do that on the back 'ribbon' but it still looks ok :-)

If you want to buy this File then contact Sandra... deets are at SANDRA's SCRAPSHOP and she has a FaceBook Group Page too HERE.

I had already been inspired by a card I saw on her Blog but I didn't have the Bow File at that time, so I made my own and did this one .....

I made the bow by hand and also used various cutting files and dies for the rest :-)

This is the card that I was inspired by......

And lastly, here is the Greek Baptism card I was asked to make.......

I have fussy cut and layered the font to make it 3D and used a cutting file to make the little Dove and added a tiny silver cross charm in his beak.

Thanks for popping in and I hope you have a fabulous crafty weekend. xxx
