Rachel's Cards and Crafts

  Hi all sorry I haven’t been blogging again lately. I have been busy in the world of crafting though making lots of cards and Jewellery etc for orders and my charity stall. You can find some of the things I have been making the past month on my Facebook Page .   Today I would like to share with you a card I have been making yesterday and this morning. The post title is called ‘a few firsts’ this is because I have used a few items for the first time on this card. The first ‘first’ is I have coloured this beautiful digi-stamp from Sherri Baldy . It’s the first of her digi-stamps I have colured and I am pleased with the result. I just love these big eye characters. Of course I have used my Spectrum Noir Pens to colour the image. The Colours I used are: FS2, FS6, TN2, PP2, PP3, PP4, PP5, IB1, IB2, IB3, IG1, IG2, IG3, IG6 and the Blender Pen.   Here’s the full card. I’m loving how it has turned out.   Right then for the second ‘first’ I have used the Joy...

  Hi all I had a great night last night. We went out for a meal and few drinks to celebrate Gail and My 31st Birthdays. It was Gail’s birthday on the 7th and it’s mine on the 18th so we decided to have a combined celebration.   I made her a card and necklace and gave these to her last night. She loved them both.   This is the card I made using Katy Sue Designs and House of Zandra Fabulous Fashion CD .   This is the first card I have made using this cd. I have been wanting it for a while but eventually got it at The Great Northern Papercrafts Show last Sunday. I am really pleased with the results and Gail and the rest of the girls thought it was Fab too which I was pleased about.   Recipe   Papers and Topper – Katy Sue Designs and House of Zandra Fabulous Fashion CD Printing Card and Paper – House of Zandra Cream Paper and Card Pack Base Card - Cream Pearl Cardstock Mats – Burgundy Card From Paper Mill Direct Ribbon – Stash Glaze – Ranger G...
