60th Anniversary

How amazing that some couples make it to their 60th Wedding anniversary.

For both of you to still be around after all these years is incredible.

Congratulations to everyone that the Lord has blessed with so many years.



Items used were:
Marine Design - Flower Set
Cheery Lynn - Flourish Leaf Strip
Cheery Lynn - Baby's Breath
Coulture Creature - Princess Carriage
Avery Elle - Count on it
Memory Box - La Rue Heart
Background is Nellies Choice 6"x 6" Hearts
Most of these Dies can be found on Bizzy Becs site at very reasonable prices. 
Mostly because Bec orders in so there can be a small wait but the prices are worth it.

Why not pop over to Bec's Store Blog and enter the monthly Anything Goes challenge?

Have a great week Crafting.

I love Poppies

Hi fellow crafters, today I am posting one of my latest stamps that I believe I will be using a lot.
Stupendous cling stamp - Poppy Fields
I needed a few quick and easy cards to do and this stamp is perfect.
A rubber stamp and only $8.99 Australian.
Next time I'll add some grass and spend more time with it.
So pleased I bought it.




Have a great week crafting.

Blessings to you all with crafty hugs,

Carol


A Card full of Flowers




Items used were:
Avery Elle Clear Stamp Set- Petals and Stems
The card was masked for the stamping.
Fussy cut around the top flowers.
Flowers in left hand corner were cut with dies and 3D tape used.
Sentiment was from the same stamp set.
Added shading on flowers and liquid pearls used in the centres.
Not the best to try to photograph.

Hedgehog Birthday




Hello Everyone,  Have you ever had a card in mind and then end up 
with something totally different?
That's what happened to me today and I am happy I changed my mind.


Items Used were:
Sizzix Step-ups - Happy Birthday
The Hedgehogs are from Penny Black Stamps -  Party Time
Balloons are from Tim Holtz - Mini Bird Crazy and Things
I have gone over some things with sparkling Gel Pens but it didn't photograph well.
Happy Birthday is much brighter than it looks. The Happy Birthday I sponged white card 
(after cutting out) with inks and put clear sparkling gel pen over it.
I'm so pleased with the result I put an 8 on it and will put it away for a grand daughter's birthday.
enjoy the rest of your week.
Crafty Hugs, Carol
