Celebrate Every Day ...

Today I have card which I have made for the 'Here Come The Boys' challenge this week which is 'Bingo'  I have chosen; cute image, two squares and twine.

I have had this LOTV stamp called 'Little Lorry Bear'  for a while but ashamedly hadn't been inked so I thought I would stamp onto Kraft card and colour using Promakers, Flexmarkers and Prismas.  I have also used some plain white Washi Tape which is another craft product I NEEDED but had yet to use.  Hey, two items now used!  

---

Backing paper is HOTP Forever Christmas Cards paper stack which was free last month in a magazine.  I have used Kraft card and a ribbler and some red card from my local craft shop.  The sentiment is from a Hanglar stamp set called ' Messenger'.  Buttons from my stash, bakers twine and some standard office staples.  And it goes without saying some hand stitching too!

Still playing with some of the LOTV Christmas cuties and I will post my Tilda soon.

Take care, Jane x

Hanglar ...

This is my latest card, a guys one too!  Really enjoyed colouring this one using the Promarkers again.  The papers are from HOTP and old kit from QVC many many moons ago.  Smooth cardstock from Craftwork Cards for the image and some old exercise book lined paper.  I have used an EK Success punch for the spiral effect and my Slice machine to cut out the stars which have then been run through the Big Shot using an Tim Holtz embossing folder.  Buttons and string from my stash and gems from Anitas.  A little distress ink from Tim Holtz once again for the lined paper, Antique Linen.  Sentiment is LOTV and a paper clip to finish.  Of course I couldn't miss out some hand stitching!!!

Thank you for stopping by, three days in a row, WOW

Hanglar Girl ...

Although I have been playing with LOTV stamps and Adorables as previously mentioned they aren't quite finished so I thought I would show you this card I made a couple of weeks ago using a Hanglar stamp. This was a present so I don't know what she is called, sorry.

Papers are from MME and they were a magazine freebie. Flowers, pin & ribbon is from, you guessed it, who else but Wild Orchid Crafts. Martha Stewart branch punch. Sentiment is from Craftwork Cards. Coloured in Promarkers & hand stitched. The charm was also a present some years ago and the little bug I think came from Hobbycraft, again many years ago!

Thanks for popping by, I must go and finish the many cards I am playing around with before I start using my latest new goodies including some gorgeous Tildas from the new collection & a couple of the new Sugar Nellie stamps called Simply Sassy, amongst others.

Hanglar ...

Today I have been playing with this lovely Hanglar image, soooo adorable. I coloured the image using Promarkers first (which I don't usually do) and then matched the papers. I am rather pleased on two counts, firstly its the dreaded 'mans' card and that I managed without flowers! The brads are Papermania, backing paper was a free download I think. Netting from Trago Mills, rafia from my local garden centre. Button & staples from stash. The sentiment was a freebie from a mag but can't remember which one at this point so I will update if I manage to find out later! 'Gone Fishing' is computer generated.

Thanks for looking, take care, happy crafting
