Oh! Pretty Baby

Recently I was asked by Hunkydory to review their

newly designed magazine Carfting with Hunkdory Issue 45

I was also able to choose a few other products of my own choice.

I was overwhelemed and honoured for this opportunity. It 

isn't my normal genre of card making but I have greatly 

enjoyed making the cards. The magazine and two  little square books 

are so beautiful, full of products and ideas, and of fantastic value

Today I am featuring one of the cards I made from the Little book

called Bundles of Joy.  but first details of today's challenge.

We have a new challenge starting at Cardz 4 Galz -

Oh! Pretty Baby

Please pop over to the blog to see the super ideas by the DT.

My card, was created from two pages from the block of papers

by Hunkdory, My Little Book - Bundles of Joy.

Mirri card, die cut with mirri card. 

I fussy cut the heart and flower corner from a sencond sheet.

Have fun, enjoy your crafting.

Fiskars punch. I am aiming to provide an up to date

Make It Krafty

Hello, I hope you are well. The weather at this

 time of the year is not normal,  it's as if spring has 

arrived a few months too early. Nevertheless we

still need to be crafting. Today we have a new challenge

for you starting at Make My Monday.

Being my turn to choose, I chose to use one of my 

favourite mediums in card making.......

Make It Krafty

We need to see you have used Kraft card.

The DT have again provided some fabulous inspiration, 

please pop over to the blog, to see them.

I made a 6" sq scallop edge Kraft card.

I made a panel for the stamp - heat embossed and

then coloured with Promarkers.

Both the flower and sentiment are by Crafty Roo.

I blended Forest Green DT around the edges of the card.

The added pearls in each corner to embellish. 

White dots added randomley with a white gel pen.

Have fun in your crafating.

X is for X-tra Bling

Hello, another posting today. 

Today we begin another challenge at Alphabet Challenges.

It's amazing how quickly these Alphabets go round, we 

are already up to the letter X - which was the task of

Diane to choose and we have a super glitzy one.

X is for Xtra Bling

So whatever amount of bling you would normally add we

would love to see more and more. 

The DT have gone glitter - sparkly crazy - having fun.

Please visit the blog to check them out. 

My card is 7" square. The papers and toppers were 

computer printed from a Hunkydory USB #02-

Decadent Days.

Black and silver mirri card used to mount the paper 

and toppers. Crystal gems added around the arch, 

added on other areas. Glitter and more glitter added,

Shame it doesn't show so well. If you click on

of the bling.
