Challenge #83 at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog - Anything Goes - Sponsor SheepSki Designs

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

🥂 Happy New Year 2021 🍾

Let's Hope it is a good one.

Being the first of the month the new challenge has started at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog. The theme is Anything Goes and the sponsor is Sheepski Designs.

I used lots of John Next Door dies to make this card. I used the Foston die set to make the background., Over the top I put some Leafty Flourishes and some tiny butterflies.

There are many wonderful images is the store. Click on the logo and you will be taken there.

This image is called Giant Daises and it is available HERE. I made a background on the computer and I layered the PNG image over the top. The image was coloured with my Faber Castell Polychromo colouring pencils. Aren't these gnomes just so cute?

This is a cute little card to start the year. I have cut back on my Design Team work. So I am not sure how often I will be posting. I do have another opportunity that has presented itself. If you look at my review of last year the news is buried in there.

Happy New Year!

Happy Crafting

Moving Along with the Times - Wedding or Anniversary

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? I have another morning of invigilating ahead. But after I am going out to lunch with a friend for her birthday which will be lovely. We might even visit a craft store. We both make cards.

Today the new challenge starts at the Moving Along with the Times Challenge blog. There is some news about the challenge blog over there as well. The theme of the challenge has been chosen by CAZ and it is Wedding or Anniversary.

I made this card a while back for our good friends who like to dance.

For the background I used the Foston Fold die set from the John Next Door range.

Why not pop over to the challenge blog and join in with the fun? Click on the logo and you will be taken there.

Over the top I added a dancing couple. This die is called First Dance and it is a Signature die.

The flowers were cut with a small die that comes with the Foston Fold Die set. I added die cuts made with the Leafy Flourish die set. They match the leaves on the Foston Fold die. I am a sucker for things that match. I added some small butterflies as well.

Their anniversary was back in July it is about the same time as our Daughter and son-in-law's. I have made a lot of wedding and anniversary cards this year.,

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Have a great day.

Happy Crafting

Sent with Love Get Well Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

The weekend is here. I hope you are well. I am feeling a bit fragile and tired. I woke with a headache in the night and that is never good. Hopefully I will feel better by tomorrow when our daughter and son-in-law come to collect their very cute hamster. We have bought the M&S £10 pizza meal deal to share. Two pizzas a side and a pudding not bad really.

I made this as a Get Well card for someone special. All the dies I used are from the John Next Door range from Crafts-Too.

The card blank was made with the Foston Die set. I used the lattice die that comes with the set to decorate the front of the card.

The 'Sent with Love' die comes with the Small butterflies die set.

The flowers and leaves were cut with the Star Flowers and Star Flowers Leaves die sets. The butterfly was from the Small Butterfly die sets.

I know this card has been received now so it is okay to share.

I would like to enter the following Challenges:

First Try with the Foston Fold Die Set

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I would like to start by wishing you all a very Happy Easter. Where we are the weather is lovely. Yesterday managed to get a lot done in the garden. We are quite a long way to being able to demolish our old shed. Thank you to all those who offered advice about how to replace it. We are always open to suggestions.

I wasn't sure if I was going to post today or not. Things seem to be going well this weekend so I thought I would.

When I was at Ally Pally I treated myself to the Foston Fold Die Set from the John Next Door Range from Crafts-Too. This is the first time I have used the die set. My first try with a die set is usually the most straight forward way. This then gives me a chance to see what else the dies might be able to do. The Foston die was cut into white card and backed with pink card.

This sentiment comes with the Small Butterfly die set.

The flowers were cut with a die in the Foston set. My favourite small butterflies were added. While at Ally Pally I also treated myself to the Leafy Flourish die set. The pattern of the leaves matches one of the panels that come with the Foston set. I am a sucker for things that match.
