Hunkydory Hydrangea

This beautiful Hydrangea is from the stunning new "Lace in Bloom" collection from Hunkydory.   Definitely my all time favourite kit!! 

It has a lace effect acetate dome which is not very clear, and all the little flowers and butterfly are decoupaged under the dome. I recommend this collection to anyone who loves flowers and delicate pink, blues and purples.. Just gorgeous!! 

Have a lovely weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Owl the Same or Not

At Just Inklined they take Copyright very seriously, they got together with a group of artists and decided to create a digital stamp on the same theme to show just how different they would be. 

The theme was to draw A big owl and a little owl perched on a fence on a chilly day 

All proceeds from the $1 digital images from the event with be given to fundraising for a worthy cause. 

Chilly Owls and wording Digital Stamp Set. Only $1 until 17th October. 

There is a Blog Hop on each of the companies sites showing all of the designs you should go and look at them, not only will it be interesting to see how different they all are but each one of the designs will only be $1.00 to buy for a limited time.

Just Inklined to Hop

Hi and welcome to this months Just Inklined blog hop. 

Our host this month is Karen L and her chosen theme is "Christmas"

I chose this fabulous Father Christmas and coloured him with Promarkers, I think the rest is self explanatory.

Remember there are two spot prizes along the way chosen from those that leave comments on the blogs.

If you're following the hop in the right order you should have arrived here from Gaynor and from here you need to hop over to Dawn.

In case you get lost, here's the hop in the correct order. Enjoy!!

Peony

Another gorgeous flower from Just Inklined.  This one is Peony 2 and is available here.

 

Coloured as usual with Promarkers and mounted on one of the Spellbinder Labels (can't remember which one) and then mounted onto contrasting coloured card. 

Have a great weekend whatever you're doing :) xx 

Rose Bloom

I think this stunning Rose Bloom has got to be one of my all time favourites from Just Inklined. 

Colourd with Promarkers, I just used a Spellbinders die, embossing folder, hougie board and a few pearls and that's it. Clean and simple just how I like 'em!! 

Hope you're all having a great weekend whatever you're up to!! xx

Crystal bracelets

So sorry not been around much lately, life just seems to have got in the way of my crafting!! lol 

I've been making a few crystal bracelets in different colours and below are just two of them. I sold 16 last month with proceeds going to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance, and I've had loads of orders for Christmas pressies, plus 4 of them actually jetted off to the other side of the world .. Australia .. shame I couldn't have gone with them and funnily enough that's what dear hubby said too!!!!

See you in a few days with something really beautiful from Hunkydory (especially if you love poppies!!:) xx 

 

Hibiscus and Bud

This Hibiscus is just one of the gorgeous brand new images from Just Inklined.

Coloured with Promarkers (Rose Pink, Pink Carnation, Blossom, Forest Green, Apple and Meadow Green) and then matted and layered onto contrasting coloured card and Hougie embossed white card. 

Hope you're all having a great weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Magnolia (again)!!!

Can you tell I love this Magnolia (coloured with Promarkers) from Just Inklined? 

I've used it again and again and again!! lol

Easy, peasy card to make. Just contrasting coloured card and white card scored on my Hougie. Done!! 

Hope you're all having a great weekend whatever you're doing :) xx 

 

Butterfly Tea Light Box

This lovely Tea Light Gift Box is made using elements from "Your Special Day" collection from Hunkydory.

I've made a few of these and even though they are quite time consuming they are really easy to make up.  

I followed this fabulous tutorial here.

Festive Decadence

This gorgeous, gorgeous lady is from the fantastic new collection from Hunkydory. 

Festive Decadence was launched yesterday and I've got to say it's got to be one of my favourite collections so far (although I say that after every new collection!!) lol

I just made a simple centre stepper card and decorated it with only the elements from the kit, no extras at all. 

 That's the beauty of Hunkydory,  you don't need all the fancy die cutting machines etc. etc. to make a stunning card.

 Just pure and simple Hunkydory :)

Purple Rose Calendar Card

I used "The Next Big Thing" CD from Just Inklined for this gorgeous pre-coloured rose image. 

 Ideal for those who don't do colouring or just haven't got the time

.

I used some striped paper I had in my stash, stuck a calendar tab on and finished off with a few pearls. 

Hope you're having a great weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Birthday Card and Crystal Bracelet Gift Set

I made this little gift set for one of our customers for his girlfriend. 

The teddy with flowers is from the brilliant Forever Friends CD.

The bracelet was made with some lovely crystal bicones I got from the Range and I made a matching silver box. 

Have a great weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Baby Girl Gift Set

One of the lads at work has just become a Daddy, so I made this little gift set for him, his girlfriend and the new little one, Lyla.

The papers and image are from the fabulous Joanna Sheen Baby Love CD, and the baby shoe is made from a template that I've had for years and can't remember where it came from, although I do remember every man and his dog were making them at the time!! lol 

Have a nice day whatever you're doing :) xx 

 

Just Inklined to Hop

Hi and welcome to this months Just Inklined blog hop. 

Our host this month is Jak and her chosen theme is "Monotone"

I chose these gorgeous snowdrops and coloured them with Promarkers and I used the "oh so hard to get hold of" Tied Together embossing folder.

I used three shades of green (Pear Green, Lime Green and Lime Zest) and coloured a strip of white ribbon with a Moss Green Promarker.

Remember there are two spot prizes along the way chosen from those that leave comments on the blogs.

If you're following the hop in the right order you should have arrived here from Gaynor and from here you need to hop over to Dawn.

Aubery Bumblethorpe

I needed a card for a mechanic, but obviously flowers and cute wouldn't have been appropriate, so who better than Aubery from Just Inklined to fit the bill!! 

He's coloured with Promarkers and the spotty background is some I had in my stash. 

Hope to see you tomorrow cos it's the August Just Inklined Blog Hop. 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

A Christmas 'Wish

This delightful little bear is from the Magical Christmas range from Hunkydory.

Again, a very, very simple card using only the elements from the kit and nothing else (apart from a bit of ribbon and mirror card)!!

 Had a great day in Hull with dear daughter doing a bit of clothes shopping, hope you all had a great weekend too :) xx

Cheers!!!

One for the boys!! 

 This fabulous image, coloured with Promarkers, is from Just Inklined and can be purchased here. 

The backing papers are from the "Man About Town" paper pack by Wild Rose Studio. 

I hope you're all having a great weekend whatever you're up to!! It's thundering and lightening here and pouring down with rain, but I can't complain .. it is 11.00 p.m and I'm not going anywhere so let it rain!!! lol

 

Mr Claus!!

And here he is ... the big fella himself!! lol
 Another card made with the fabulous Classic Christmas range from Hunkydory. 

This has got to be one of the quickest (and very effective in my opinion) cards I've ever made!! 

It's just one of the toppers layered onto one of the backing sheets and finished with a sentiment. That's it!!  (Oh and I glittered the fur on his coat and hat but you can't see it in the photo!!)

Have a nice day whatever you're doing :) xx 

 

Christmas in July!!!

This is just one of the many Christmas cards I've made over the past few months for Hunkydory. 

These gorgeous little doggies are from the Classic Christmas range, but you need to get the other packs from the Christmas Blockbuster as they are equally as fantastic.

A very simple card to make, but it looks so classy!! (even though I do say so myself)lol 

If you want to become a member of Club Hunkydory all you have to do is register here. 

Have a great day whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Crocus Jug

Hi all, I'm still around .. just!! 

Been soooo busy making crystal bracelets (to order) AND doing DT work AND trying to crochet baby blankets in this hot weather AND making the usual commissioned cards!!! 

This gorgeous crocus jug from Just Inklined is available here as a digi stamp, but I cheated a bit and used the pre-coloured one from the fantastic "Next Big Thing" CD. A very simple card to make, just used some dotty backing paper from my stash and finished with a few gems and a stamped sentiment. 

 Hope you're all enjoying this gorgeous weather!! I know a lot of us are complaining that it's too hot, but make the most of it, it will probably be snowing next month!! lol 

 Enjoy the rest of your weekend whatever you're doing :) xx

 

Just Inklined to Hop

Hi and welcome to this months Just Inklined blog hop. 

Our host this month is Tangii and her chosen theme is "Stars and Rhinestones and Twine"

I chose this gorgeous Magnolia and coloured it with Promarkers and I used one of the new 8" x 8" Embossalicious folders for the background.

Now you probably know I don't like busy cards so kept this as simple as possible.  Hence one star, 4 bits of bling and a bit of twine!! At least I followed the theme and did what I was supposed to!! lol

Remember there are two spot prizes along the way chosen from those that leave comments on the blogs.

If you're following the hop in the right order you should have arrived here from Gaynor and from here you need to hop over to Dawn.

Another very quick card using "The Next Big Thing" CD from Just Inklined.

The backing paper is from the "Behind Closed Doors Pop Up Cards" CD from La Pashe.
