Cleo Crafts Card Making Kit

Another month, another kit - Wooooo Hooooo!!!!!

Louise & Tara at Cleo Crafts have the October kit up for grabs on their site. It's such a fun, fun, fun kit, I just love the monster paper!

Here's a glimpse of what's included in the kit:



And here are my cards from which I made from the kit.






It's such a great buy and at only £9.99 you can't go wrong! Also within the kit you get instructions on how to make the cards I made above and also the super-talent Leann's cards - visit Leann's blog here.

Aaarrrrgghh where has time gone?

Sorry bloggers that I haven't been blogging, life has been very busy. I'm taking 2 photography courses as well as other things.

I have a few cards that I have made in the last month that I have been meaning to share with you.

First up is a Golden Wedding Card for friends of ours.




I had a go at stitching on card using my little sewing machine and I'm very pleased with my 1st go. I'm sooo not a sewer but think this has prompted me to have a go at making over things with it.

Next card was a birthday card for a for a lovely lady in a Birthday Club that I belong to on Crafts by Carolyn



And the last card I want to show you is an engagement card that I was commissioned to make from a friend at work.



Please note that there is a 20% discount on DewDrop Craftz Digiz until midnight this Sunday (11th).
Discount is automatically applied in the basket too, so no code to remember.

I will be back to show you some examples coloured in of the Digiz that are on offer so keep an eye out.

Back from the Emerald Isle

Got back yesterday from our holiday in Ireland. Not much of a holiday as my mum was quite poorly all the time we were there, I need a holiday to get over this one but relieved to have today off from work to just chill. We did manage a couple of trips out at the very end and one trip was to Cookstown to go and visit Doodle Craft, it was so lovely and full of lovely things. I bought a couple of stamps and a new trimmer.

While I was away Cleo Crafts have launched their new card making kit, visit the shop to see what's included.

Here is one of my cards made using the kit.




You can see more cards and instructions on how to make them here.

The Kits are priced at £9.99 plus £1 postage for subscribers... and subscribers will also get 10% off any website purchases! Please email any requests for more info to Louise at info@cleocrafts.co.uk

New card making kit coming to town..!!

Cleo Crafts are starting a new card making kit - to find out more details head over to the thread on UK Scrappers or click here to contact Louise.

Here are a couple of sneak peeks for you.

DewDrop Craftz goes Digi!

A bit of a quick post today as I am meant to be packing, going on holiday soon!! Woo Hooo!!!

I made the above card with a new release over at DewDrop Craftz. There are lot's of other new Digi's over at DewDrop Craftz.

The hardest card to make!

Sympathy cards that is!

We learnt last week that our ex-nextdoor neighbour and friend passed away. It was a shock but also kind of expected. I really didn't feel like making this card and left it to the last minute!

I have another card to show you with a new release for DewDrop Craftz but that will have to wait till tomorrow as the glue is drying!

Exciting News Alert!!!

I am SOOOO excited!! I have been chosen to be on the Design Team for CleoCrafts who are starting a new monthly card making kit. They also have a blog so keep your eyes peeled!!

Can't wait to get my kit and show you the yummyness of it!!!!

Happy Birthday Cupcake!

Woo Hoo! Another card off my list and within the deadline too ;o) I must like working under pressure??!!
This card is for my little (well not so little anymore) cousin who turns 15 on Thursday!!! 15!!! I can remember holding her when she was hours old, where has the last 15 years gone?? She is sooo grown up now.

I used Cherry Cupcake from DewDrop Craftz and at ONLY £3.25 you'd be crazy not to buy it!!!

I also have a confession to make! The pattern paper isn't out of my scrap box :blush: as I had already coloured in the Cupcake and none of my scraps matched the colours so I HAD to cut up some delicious untouched paper, shame on me! LOL! Oh but the pieced of card is from my scrap box!!

Eric the Dinosaur meets Copic Buzz challenge no. 7

My friends little boy turns 1 tomorrow and so when I saw the Copiz Buzz challenge no. 7 (which looks like I just missed it - just my luck!!) I just knew I had to use Eric the Dinosaur!!



I also made a little tag for the pressie to match the card :)

Still using scraps from my scrap box but it STILL looks like it isn't going down!!

Oooohhh I also have some VERY exciting news but can't say anything yet, when I can I will let you all know

Belated Birthday Card

I had to make a quick belated birthday card for my little cousin who has just turned 11, we completely forgot her birthday so she received this card a little bit late but I think she liked it as she kept feeling it! I am still using up scraps of paper and card from my scrap box, I think I will have a major die cutting session soon so I can start using all my new paper but I am determined not to touch it until all the scraps have gone!
