One tequila…

  • March 29, 2011 at 12:13 pm

Hello,

Here is my take on this weeks Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge.  I have yet to decide if I actually like the card I have created.  It gets frustrating when you have an image in your head how a card is going to turn out, but in realty it looks nothing like it :( .  On a positive note I used one of my favourite digi stamps.  I have made heaps of cards with Tequila Ruby – love it!

Man Cards

I have found a new challenge blog - Cards For Men.   What a great way to keep my supply of men cards happening :) .

                    

To be honest I am not really over excited with how my card turned out.  Think the colours are all wrong.  All well.

Birthday Box

  • March 10, 2011 at 11:36 am

Hello,

Today I have made a birthday box for a friend.  I have made it big enough to put some very mini alcohol bottles along with lollies inside.  I am entering my box into the Bugaboo Anything Goes Challenge.   I made the box from scratch using chipboard which I have not done for a long time but ejoyed getting back into it.

Magnolia Book

  • March 4, 2011 at 12:23 pm

Hello,

What weird weather we have been having in Melbourne lately.  Today is the 4th day of autumn yet it is freezing cold as if we were in the middle of winter – brrrr.

Magnolia Down Under challenge this week is ‘Flower Power’.  

One of the many blogs I like to stalk at is We Design Studios.  The other day Laura from We Design Studios got an old hard cover book cut out the middle (prison style:)) and placed confetti and cute little birthday gifts in it (click HERE to have a looksie).  Then posted it off to a friend.  I thought this was a very cool idea.  I wanted to take it one step further and cover the outside of the book and make a box that will fit on the inside that I can place the gift in.  Because the only book I had at home that I was prepared to desecrate was a paper back, I used chipboard and bookbinding fabric to transform into a hard cover.

  Hope you like what I came up with.

Boy Card

  • February 22, 2011 at 1:29 pm

Todays card is the invites I have made for my sons birthday slumber party (what was I thinking :) ). 
Cute Card Thursday Challenge this week is  ’to see your cards that feature something nice and shiny. It can be Glossy Accents added to your image, or charms, metal flowers, mirror card, if it’s shiny we want to see it!’
Because this card is boy orientated I wanted to keep the shine at a minimum, I put some ‘dimensional magic’ over the chipboard star.
