A very quick good evening to all my craft friends.  I've been at the pc for too long and have set the neck off grrrr!!  So I shall just add my cards and good wishes to you all for a lovely weekend and get busy doing a masculine card for a change.

Not long finished this card for my nephew.  I was trying out my IndigoBlu gilding flakes the other day.  I used  all my silhouette stamps just to see how they would come out..  I only have 2 colours Sheffield Steel and Copper Kettle.   They look brilliant when other people use them but I can't say that I'm that happy with the glue .  I bought them both a year ago and the one that was open has dried out completely even though the tub was closed properly.   Also I don't find the glue washes off the stamps as easy as the hype says it does.  Anyway enough of my moans and now to add the card.  Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Backing paper free with Papercraft Essentials

Spellbinders dimensional embossing folder covered with bronze gilding wax but it's not showing up well in the scan.  Silhouette stamp was from JS. Sentiment is part of a free set from cardmaking in easy steps. Card and embellishment from stash.

Afternoon to one and All.  Due to problems with my neck I've not been crafting or on-line much but I did do an atc swap with a friend on DC.  She wanted African so here is what she got.

Used distress inks, tree stamp is from Tanda Stamps
African silhouette is from Clarity

Distress inks again background tree is from IndigoBlu
Lion, not sure where I got him.

Not sure where my African wildlife stamps came from

The end of another lovely day!

Evening all, I hope you have all had a chance to enjoy the lovely weather we've been having.  I can't take the sun but love when it's warm enough to sit in the shade.  I've not been on pc much this week due to my neck problems so have managed to make 2 cards

First card was made using an embossing folder that came free with a mag (forget which one)
Stamp is from ODBD, flowers and flourishes from my stash

This card was embossed with my new Anna Griffin embossing folder, free image from a mag last year. Flowers flourishes and other die-cuts  and lace ribbon from my stash.  Thinking of you is a Britania Die (I think)  Sorry I'm not sure of much at the moment.  Right off to watch a wee bit of telly before bed.  Have a good week and thanks for visiting my blog

Hello Everyone, I hope you have had a dry day where you are.   It's been awful here, heavy downpours all day.  Local pond is breaking it's banks and the playing field where I take the dog could be counted as a pond tonight, just as well I had my wellies and waterproof trousers on.  Let's hope tomorrow is better.
I have 2 cards to show this week,  I should have been making a fat page and a couple of atc's but one card was all I got done today.

Both cards are stamped using ODBD stamps. New X-cut large dies, flowers ribbon and lace from my stash.   Thanks for the visit and for any comments you leave.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Good evening  one and All,  I've spent more time sorting my stamps than actually stamping with them this week but I did manage 3 very quick atc's  all made using the Mr Darcy set from IndigoBlu.
Thanks for visiting my blog and for all the lovely comments you leave.

Good evening fellow crafters, it's been ages since I was on my blog.  I've only made 2 cards since last time.  Still being kept very busy with my puppy.  The 2 cards I've made are for my granddaughter who will be 13 and my niece who will be 14.  It took me a week and a half to make the owl card 2 versions went in the bin. I eventually changed the shape of card I was using and it worked out.  The other card was a dawdle in comparison.

 6"x 6" card Stamped image from IndigBlu "Mr Darcy" stamp set

Spellbinders majestic squares, Martha Stewart border punch, flowers and ribbon from my stash. Typed sentiment

2nd card 5" x 7" used tied together embossing folder, blue paper free with mag.  owls free with mag I think.  Ribbon and lace and gems from stash. Happy birthday stamp from magazine freebie set, spellbinders scalloped circle die with love stamp from stash.

Thanks for visiting my blog I do hope you have a lovely weekend.
