Hunkydory - Fluttering Pearl

I loved it when hunkydory brought out this kit as it was a first for them to bring out a kit using crafters companion centura pearl card stock, it gives an amazing finish and something different

For this card I covered an 8" card blank with some of the green centura pearl card stock that was an extra with this kit. Then with the matching card stock I matted onto a 7" square bit of gold mirri then place some of the acetate to one side so the other side is free hanging, all of  this was then placed in the centre of the card leaving an even border, I added the topper to the centre of the acetate with a sentiment underneath and finished the card with some balloons and ribbon and a few gems.

I'm always stuck onto how to use velum as I don't like tape on show so I came up with the above idea

Using the all my love paper pad I matted a piece of paper onto a piece of gold mirri card, I took my chosen topper an placed it where I wanted it on the card and drew round it leaving a 1cm border all around and cut the centre out, on my card blank I done the same, I cut the velum to a bit bigger than the aperture and stuck it down on the card blank covering the aperture the stuck the card stock down on top of that. I then put the topper on foam pads and added it to the centre of the aperture.

I finished the card with some roses and gems and ribbon and one of the foiled borders, I think this card turned out well and I now know how I can use my velum.

Catch up...........

It's been ages since I last updated my blog, but have been so busy with everything, I was I a car crash 6 weeks ago  so that was scary done no crafting for 2 weeks and I missed it so much, but so glad to be back in my crafting again, I have got so many new ideas I want to try out, and if they turn out ok they will be on here for all of you to see

Any back to my craft room to finish of re organising it .......again

Catch up real soon

Trying something new..........

Well after seeing every ones colouring with spectrum noirs and pro makers, i have decided to give it ago. so i have just treated myself to the 72 pen set of the spectrum noirs, ( i will gradually build up so i can get a complete set)  some stamps from crafters companions pick of the week and all the other bits i need to get started, i think it will be good to try something different and I'm sure it will be very relaxing in the evening to sit and colour, not sure how good i will be but its something different and what do they say.....practise makes perfect. i will upload a picture of my first attempt even if it is bad just so i can also look back over time and hope i improve.
anyway I'm of to bed now I'm hoping of a crafting day tomorrow so i will catch up soon

Congratulations your engaged.

To make this card I started of with a 7"x7" card blank and covered the front in silver mirri, I then took a piece of pale pink adorable scorable a few millimetres smaller to the mirri and placed it on the mirri, I took some pink ribbon and wrapped it around so co- ordinations card stock and placed in on to the pink card stock. I took all four toppers and matted and layered them to the pale pink adorable scorable and silver mirri and placed them on the card leaving an equal border all the way round. I finished the card with a sentiment and bow and matching insert.

I think this has turned out well and I think it looks amazing in front of my marine tank x

Be Bunni........

I absolutely love the way this turned out, what little girl wouldn't love this hanging in their room.

To make this frame I started of with the tonic picture frame, with co-ordinating card stock I cut four strips to size to place around the frame, inside the frame I got some pale pink adorable scorable and cut to size and place it on to some silver mirri and placed inside the frame, and added the topper with foam pads to the centre of the frame.

With some fuchsia pink card I used the Emily deco frame from tonic and placed on the frame, I finished this of with 6 10mm roses and a sentiment.

I think this is gorgeous and loved making it x

For this card I used 2 6"x6" card blanks and stuck them together, with my ultimate pro I scored both open sections from corner to corner and folded the back on them self's.

For the matting and layering in side the card I used the plain co-ordinating paper and matted it on to some silver mirri and placed inside the card with the sentiment reading " happy anniversary" from the kit, for the 2 outside triangles I used the foil co-ordinating paper from the paper pad.

I added to topper to the one of the triangles. I didn't have any purple roses so on a cream rose I coloured it in using a pro marker and then both roses finished with some spray and sparkle from crafters companion .

Something different to a normal card x
