New Fairy Digi

Two postings today, crikey haven't I been the busy bee today.  This card is made with a new digi that I got yesterday. It is from Cuddly Buddly, isn't she pretty. I have coloured her with promarkers and added glitter. The backing papers are from Me to You range  Tatty Teddy. I thought the little butterflies were so pretty and would work with my fairy. The flowers are from my stash and I just added pearl beads to the centres.. Thanks for visiting hope your week is going well. Hugs x ChrisB

Bah humbug - bells

Another week and another Christmas challenge from Bah humbug. This week it's bells, would you believe I couldn't find a stamp with bells on when I wanted it.  I decided that I would use some tiny bells I bought a few of months ago. I stamped a swag using a box of tiny stamps that were the first stamps I bought. Plus a couple of tapestry stamps. I then went to look for my bells and had a fit when I couldn't find where I had put them. I went off up to my friends on the scrounge and came back with these little bells. I have sewn them onto my card.  The sentiment is my Dimension Fourth. I cut two gold borders and threaded with Ribbon and added bows to finish.

Hello, hope your all having a great weekend out there. I have had a very busy one up to now, but hooray for an extra day of work tomorrow. I have managed to fit in a bit of quick crafting.  I am starting to make cards for a friend as part of her christmas present. She sends loads of cards out during a year. She loves my cards and loves that I make lots of different ones for her, some just to write notes in and others as birthday cards etc. I usually make her about 30 to 40 all different. I have made two Tatty teddy and a fairy card.
Sorry my pictures  a re a bit rubbish again. I never seem to get the lighting right. Have a good day tomorrow. Have fun everyone and happy crafting. Hugs x ChrisB

Bah humbug - kinetic

Today I'm posting my card for this weeks Bah Humbug challenge. I'm afraid it's been made in a bit of a rush and wasn't the one I originally planned. I hope you like it.
I have been very busy doing the dreadful housework this week. Washing walls down and spring cleaning and tidying everywhere up. My daughter who works and lives at the moment up Scotland, she is a Forsensic Pathologist is bringing her new man to meet us for the first time. She as only ever brought one home before and they went out together for seven years and then split up.  We are going out for a meal when I finish work tomorrow, then she will be back off up to Scotland. I hope you are all having a good week and now working to hard. I'm tired now so off for a good soak and relax. Thanks for dropping by, it's always lovely to hear from you. Hugs xChrisB

Wedding Easel gift box

My friend at work saw my Christmas Easel calenders that I made. She liked them and asked if I could make one for her Daughters Wedding. She wants to give them some money for a wedding present so thought this little box with a drawer would be just the thing. I have used a Lili of the Valley image and coloured it with promarkers. I have printed the backing papers off a cd and used my cuttlebug and some mirror card. The flowers and ribbon are the colour of the bridesmaids dresses. I have taken my photo again before I added stickles to my flowers.  I always forget.

The new picture on my side bar is my gorgeous bundle of mischief, she was three in February but is tall for her age. Thanks for visiting wishing you a week of happy crafting. Hugs x ChrisB

Brayering.

Today I thought I'd show you a  couple of quick cards I made with my brayer. My son was asleep in my craftroom and I only had a few limited things on my table downstairs. I just went for it to see what I could come up with, I was quite pleased with the results. I had  2 dye ink pads , white and black card. Glue , and old birthday card, 3 stamps and foil, scissors and mica powder.
Thanks for dropping by. All your comments are really appreciated. Happy crafting Hugs x ChrisB

Bah humbug - snowflakes

Hi ,everyone is having fun this week at Bah humbug with Snowflakes. I have just made this card for the challenge using a free  download paper that I got from Glenda Waterworth last year. Isn't it lovely. I added a Ribbon and my Snowflake also a bit of embossing. The greeting was recyled from an old Christmas card. I just left it quite simple as I wanted the paper to show. I forgot to say I printed it straight onto my card. Hope you'll call by again. Happy crafting Hugs x ChrisB
