new christmas card



Some christmas cards I have made for a weekly challenge over on the Docrafts forum. I have used free 'Funky Hand' papers from a craft magazine. I have coloured in the image using copic pens and mounted on a contrasting nestie shape.

Cupcakes and Christmas! (yes, really!)





some more challenge cards from the docrafts forum! The cupcake card was a sketch challenge. I have used PM 'Honey & Hugs' papers, and PM cupcake stamps. The christmas card challenge is to make a card per week, so these are for weeks one and two! Funky Hand papers free from a craft magazine, and die cut snowflakes. I have used a die cut reindeer on one and a Forever Friends embossed transfer on the other. Thanks for looking and I welcome your comments!

Not a card but a jumper!!



Well, this is what I was doing with my time when my mojo upped and went for cards last summer!

I made this cardigan having not knitted in years, or done any cabling for that matter! When it was complete, however, I found that it was a little on the tight side, so, I emailed here and the lovely Aneeta gave me a hint of what I could do about it, and it worked a treat! This isn't a great photo, but, she did make me knitter of the month in september so you can see a pic on her website! I am now enjoying getting into crochet thanks to the wonderful blog I am following at Attic 24 with the lovely Lucy! Her blog is amazing, and her life is so filled with colour, it is inspiring! Take a peek! the picture shows my attempt at a crochet bag which is on Lucy's blog, - it is a work in progress!!

Forever Friends Challenge Card



this is my first challenge card of 2011! I have been a bit mojoless of late in the craft room, so I am attempting to get back in there, as well as all the other projects I have on the go!

The challenge was to use one FF image, 2 backing papers, at least one flower and one sentiment. I used Funky Hand Winter collection papers, which were free with a craft magazine. The FF stamp is watercoloured and glitter painted by hand, I have added a stamped sentiment and some flowers and a ribbon and brad from stash. Thanks for looking.
