Back to Crafting

By
Hello all, I'm back home now and having a play. After four days of no crafting what so ever I am back in my craft room - creating.
I thought I would start with this week's sketch over Simply Stampin'


Here is my card


I started off with some Everyday Enchantment SAB DSP and cut it to fit my card blank - 5" x 5" Whisper White. I then used Pumpkin Pie, Pool Party and more Whisper White for matting and layering. My images are from my new Charming set and are stamped in Pool Party and Peach Parfait ink.
I punched a few tiny flowers to pretty up the border a bit and also added a few pearls.

Lucky me - I'm off out tonight to a scrapbook workshop, see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Beautiful card Jacqueline! I really like the flowers along the border, very pretty indeed! Great use of that stamp set, I've steered clear of it as I couldn't see what I'd do with it!
    Thanks so much for playing along with us again at Simply Stampin' this week and I hope you join us again very soon!

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
