Yellow Rose for Ivy

Went back to my first love decoupage for this one.
I used one of the beautiful flowers from one of the Cupcake Crafting CD's.

A bit of ribbon and a few peel offs and that's it ... easy, peasy.
Happy 100th Birthday Ivy xx

Christmas Bells

Another Christmas card, this time with this gorgeous image from Just Inklined called "Christmas Bells" which can be purchased here.

I used some lovely red glitter card, red beads, red glitter glue and my newest Martha Stewart punch and coloured it in with Promarkers.

The colours I usesd are:
Leaves: Meadow Green and Forest Green
Ribbon: Antique Pink, Crimson and Burgundy
Bells: Vanilla, Pastel Yellow and Mustard

Have a nice day whatever you're doing, it's very dark and miserable here, just right for a Monday morning .. NOT!! lol xx

All Aboard

Here's the last one for now of the Trinitage cards. This is "Train Home at Christmas" and can be purchased here.

Another very easy card to make yet so beautiful when finished.
See you soon xx

Blue Christmas x 2

Two more Trinitage cards from La Pashe.
The first one is "Church in Winter" and the second one is "Frozen River" both available from here.

Frozen River

Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. We've just come back from wallpaper shopping cos we're giving our bathrooms a makeover, or maybe it would be just easier to ring Carol Smilie!! lol xx

Christmas Town

I just love these Trinitage cards from La Pashe. This one's called Christmas Town and it can be purchased from here.
They're basically two cards in one .. you can either have them standing up like a regular card or open them up and hey presto they're a stand alone pop-up card.
Instructions can be found here on how to make them up.

For my card I just used some glitter card and some stickles and that was it. Simple but very effective.
I'll have a few more to show you over the next few days so until then bye for now and have a lovely weekend xx

Just Inklined Blog Hop

Hello and a big, warm welcome to the second Just Inklined Blog Hop.
This month's theme chosen by Toni is Buttons and Bows

Can I please introduce you to Maude Doodlebuns Flab Fighter. Bless her heart, she's peddling away like mad to shift a few pounds, but when she's finished if she's anything like me, she'll pour herself a very large glass of wine (or two) to quench her raging thirst!! lol
Maude can be purchased here.

She was coloured in with Promarkers and the gorgeous ribbon and buttons are courtesy of Fantastic Ribbons
