Christmas in July

This is my first Christmas card of this year.

Sisters Birthday

I havent made a card for a while but as it's my sisters birthday in a couple of weeks I thought I should make her card this weekend, so here's my offering.




I am entering it into the sketch challenge over at Sketch Saturday.

New Home

I've made this card for my sister who has just moved house. I hope she likes the card, the image is one of hers so Im sure she will like that. I have followed the sketch over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp and have used Basic Grey papers.

Third Easter card

Second Easter card

First Easter Card

Mothers Day

I've made this card to send to my Nan for Mother's day. The sketch I've followed is from The Pink Elephant.

There are several Mother's day challenges this week so I'm also entering those:

Papertake - It's a Mum Thing!
Allsorts - For a Special Lady

Blue and Green Mothers Day

This is another card I've made for Mother's Day. It was orginally going to be for my future MIL but now its made I might swap round with the one below.

Mums Mother's Day Card

I've made this card for my mum for Mother's Day. The paper I have used is from a DCWV pack which I was allowed to keep after being sent the wrong pack, I never received the intended pack though :( I knew I had to save this paper for using on Mother's Day cards. Im not realy a 'pink' person but my sister used the blue and green paper on her card over at Solar Eclipse Crafts so I chose to use the pink and green version instead.
I followed the sketch over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp
I'm also entering it into the following challenges:
One Stop Craft Challenge - Diamonds are a girls best friend
Stampin' for the Weekend - For Mum/Mother's Day

Valentines Card

This is the Valentine's Card I've made for my Fiance. I hope he likes it. I just worked out that this will be our 7th Valentines day, gosh where did the time go? I've used the Piece of my Heart stamp from Penny Black and coloured it in with Promarkers.

I followed the sketch over at Friday Sketchers.
I am also entering it into Love/Valentines challenges at:
Creative Card Crew
One Stop Craft Challenge


I won Top 3 over at One Stop Craft Challenge with this card so I've added their banner to my sidebar.

Red and Green Christmas Card

This card follows the sketch over at Papertake Weekly Challenge.

Another Pink Christmas Card

Im entering this card into the sketch challenge over at Totally Gorjuss and the A Pink Christmas at Creative Inspirations.

Purple Christmas Card

I have a few days off work this week so I thought I should continue making my Christmas cards. This card uses the sketch from Sketch Saturday. I have modified the sketch by having the text across the bottom of the card instead of the three spots. I am also entering it in the Let it Snow challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge and the snow/snowflake challenges at A Spoon Full of Sugar and I Love Promarkers. The image was coloured using Promarkers and I have glittered the hats.

Black White and Red Christmas

This card uses the sketch from Stamp Something.

Fiances Birthday card

Two days after my Mums birthday it is my Fiance's birthday, November is a busy birthday month in my family. It's a special birthday for him but he's a little sensitive about it so when I saw the Hide and Seek challenge over at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge I knew exactly what to do on his card. I hope he likes it, note the grey hair too :)

Mums Birthday Card

Its my Mums birthday two days after my Nans. This is the card I've made for her following the sketch over at Sunday Sketch & Stamp. I have followed the sketch closely changing the square for a rectangle and using two embellishments instead of three. The dots were made using a glitter glue pen which caused quite a bit of mess, luckily I was able to rescue the card!

Nans Birthday card

This is the card I've made for my Nans birthday. She asked for the stamp Ive used so I chose the papers to match colours Ive used to colour the stamp. Im entering it into the challenge over at Inspirational Card Sketches as I have followed their sketch this week.

Pink Christmas

Here is another Christmas card I've made. Its very pink which is unlike me but it does mean I can enter it into the Stamp Something with some Pink challenge over at Stamp Something.

Anniversary card

I made this card for my Fiance for our 6th Anniversary. I have used a Penny Black stamp and followed the sketch at Penny Black Saturday Challenge.

September Friendship Swap

Here is the card I've made for my partner in Docrafts September Friendship card swap. I've followed the sketch over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp although I substituted the oval with a rectangle. I'm also entering it into the challenges at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge, Allsorts Challenge and Penny Black Saturday Challenge.

August Swap Card

Im being more organised this week and have already made the card to send to my Docrafts friendship swap partner. I followed the sketch over at Papertake Weekly Challenge. I am also going to enter it into the Animal challenge at Creative Inspirations. The theme over at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge is Out of this World, well a duck holding a bunch of flowers is a bit 'out of this world' so I'm entering the card into that challenge too.

Pastel Christmas

This is the second Christmas card I've made this year, and its only August. I have followed the Pastel Christmas theme over at Cupcake Craft Challenge and the sketch at Sunday Sketch and Stamp. I am also entering it into the Christmas in July challenges at Our Creative Corner and Stamp Something. One of the papers I have used includes text so I'm also entering it into the texting crazy challenge at Cute Card Thursday.

First Christmas Card

I'm being better organised this year and have made a start on my Christmas cards, this is my first of 2010. I followed the sketch over at Sketch Saturday. I am also entering it into Just Cute Cards and Cute Card Thursday as they both have Christmas challenges this week.

Here's another card made a while ago. This card was made for my partner in the Docrafts Friendship Card Swap.

I made this card a while ago for my friends wedding but was ver busy at the time I forgot to upload so here it is now.
