Beccy's Place - New Release - Live Large

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How are you getting on? I must admit that I am struggling to craft. I really must set  myself some goals. I am enjoying the weekday Doodling sessions that Barbara Gray is hosting every morning on Facebook. The videos are later loaded on to YouTube so no one has to miss out.

Today I am featured on the Beccy's Place blog.

Back at the beginning of the year Beccy Muir who own Beccy's Place sent me some new images to work with, I received the very cute Live Large set.  Here is what I made.

I do love an easel card. You do have to be careful who you send them to though. 

This is the set of Live Large images they are available HERE.  Aren't they just so cute. 

With digital images it is so easy to make groups with them. I created the background on the computer too. The bunting and butterflies are die-cuts. The Hippos were coloured with my Promarkers. 

I used a stitched Flag die to make the stopper for the easel. It made a good place for the sentiment as well. 

This was the second card I made. The images were coloured with Promakers. All the flowers were made with punches. I really don't use these enough. 

This is just a small card. I used a new die set from Sizzix, The Hippo was coloured with Promarkers and he was nice and easy to cut out. The background was made with papers. 

Here are all my makes together. 

Stay safe and well. 

Happy Crafting

Get Well Card featuring Clyde the Dragon

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? I have a relatively quiet week. Today I am helping at a Felting Workshop which is run by my dear friend. I think  we will be making pictures. Sometimes I get to make my own project sometimes I help to complete a project for the group. I won't know what I will be doing until I get there. I do so love helping though it is a lovely gentle morning in very pleasant surroundings.

Although I have had some time to craft this week I have been struggling a bit to know quite what to do. I was looking at the Bugaboo website and I spotted the free image of the week which is Clyde Get Well. The little dragon was so cute he was just begging to be made into a card.

The backing paper was created with some inky kitchen roll when from when I had been using some Brushos. The ribbon was from my stash. The layers were cut with the Double Pierced Square dies from Creative Expressions. 

Isn't Clyde cute. He was printed onto Neenah card stock and coloured with Promarkers. I used the Double Pierced Rectangle dies to cut out the image and its mat. 

The flowers and leaves were created with punches that emboss. I have had these punches for a while it was good to use them again. 

I think this is quite a cheerful Get Well card it will go into my basket until I need one.

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope you had a good week and have something nice planned for the coming weekend. On Saturday we are off to Ally Pally for the Craft show. We go on the train. It is a good day out. On Sunday we are heading off to Hastings for Beatles Day. It is a whole day dedicated to Beatles songs performed by many different people and the proceeds go to Macmillan Cancer Support. It is a very good day. We have been a few times now with our friends.

Being Friday the new challenge starts on the Crafty Catz Challenge blog. The theme is Anything Goes and the optional theme is Colours of Spring. The sponsor is Lacy Sunshine.

I found the paper in my stash and I cut an aperture for the image with my Double Pierced dies from Creative Expressions. 

There are many gorgeous images in the store click on the logo and you will be taken there. 

This image is called Rory's Hollyhocks and is available HERE. She was printed onto Neenah card and coloured with Promarkers. 

This is such a useful die from Crafter's Companion. 

I used the Star Flower Leaves from the John Next Door range and I created the flowers with punches. 

Have a great weekend. We are off to the Crafting at Ally Pally on Saturday and on Sunday we are going to Hastings for the annual Beatles Day.
