Had to share

I am so excited. I found these gorgeous new stamps from Ppinkydolls on Etsy and needed to share one of the cards I made with one of the images. This is Christmas Angel and you can find her here. 

I coloured her in different Christmas colours to normal as I just think she is not a red girl (although have coloured her in red too - to come soon). There are so many different and gorgeous designs by this designer - you need to check them out.

I gave this card to one of my dearest friends - Paula. She loved it. Even said she should have got me to make cards for her - yes you should have ;) LOL.

Birthday image for a Christmas card

Hello my lovelies. Another card. So sorry it took so long to pop another card up but feeling very lucky that I can do lots of things in my life - card making is just one of them. 

Have started my own 't-shirt' business. I am putting your favourite quotes on shirts. 'Suck It Up Princess'. Beast Mode. You name it we can do it. If you are interested check out Booya Designs on Facebook here. 

This card was made for my friend Tania again and I used this image from Spesch Designer Stamps - it is called Birthday Present and is available here. Thought it would be great to use one of our stamps as a Christmas stamp even though it's original purpose was for Birthday cards. I love how she came up in the christmas colours. 

Poem on the inside. Love it. Signifies Christmas.

Enjoy...!!!

Christmas Elf 2

I have been trying to make some cards for a friends sister. I have finally finished all six of them and this card is the second one. I love Christmas colours but with the non traditional christmas papers out there these days I also love changing it up. This paper has the Dark Aqua and light green colours which are starting to become one of my favourites. 

This image (again) is Floppy from Make it Crafty and you can find him here. He is awesome to colour and as you can see looks awesome on the front of a card. 

A close up of this guy is always needed. I love colouring the stripey hat. He is so adorable. LOL.

The inside of the card has a poem.

The poem:

As you relish the goodies, decorate every nook and corner of you home

and enjoy the get-togethers,

May the joy and festivities contiue to radiate in your lives,

long after Christmas is gone.

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

Hope you enjoy your day. I will be posting up a few more cards over the next couple of days.

Been a while

 So it has been a while since I have posted on this blog and I am totally and utterly sorry. With my study - now a qualified Personal Trainer - and doing all my gym stuff I have neglected my card making and am I so glad I have my groove back. I am loving making cards.

Last weekend I attended and had a stall at my kids School Carnival. I shared the stall with some good girlfriends who make jewellery and candles. Unfortunately I only sold one card but it made me look through my cards and realize that I love doing colouring with Copics and also love making cards.

With Christmas coming up I was asked to make six cards for a sister of my good girlfriend. This card is the first one I have made for her. It is using the Make it Crafty Socks digital stamp which you can get here.

 I love this stamp. I used it last year for one of my Christmas cards but made him green. Yep - Green. LOL. He looked like a real elf. Was amusing. Anyway....!!!! hahahaha. I love the way he coloured up and this paper is the bomb. I actually purchased it a while ago and don't know what paper it is but that is not an issue.

This inside of the card reads:

 Merry Christmas - Anon

Merry Christmas to friends!

Merry Christmas to foes!

The world's bright with joy, so

Forget all your woes.

The earth's full of beauty, of

Love and good cheer,

Merry Christmas to all and a 

Happy New Year!
