You make my heart happy card and hello again!!

Hi everyone, can't believe it's been 3 1/2 years since I last blogged. Thought I'd start it up again.

I've still been creating and sharing bits on my Facebook page. A lot has happened since I last posted, I was quiet unwell in 2017 and needed surgery to sort out a condition I was going through. Then when I felt well I found out that I was pregnant. We now have a lovely little boy called Joshua. He's 2 1/2 years now. We've also moved house and have been renovating it. We're all done now thankfully.

Right now time to share the card I finished yesterday. This is made using a stamped image by Lee Holland Called With Love. It's produced by Crafter's Companion.

I love how cute and fun this image is. I think this range of stamps will soon become my new favourite stamps. I colured the image using my spectrum noir colourblend pencils.

The backing papers are digital ones I've had a while on my PC from Nitwit Collections.

I've mat and layered onto a 7x7" card base with the papers and lovely coloured cardstock too.

Finally I stamped one of the sentiments from the stamp sheet and also added 3 gems to the corner.

Birthday Card Trio

Hello all, I'm back again with another post for you. This time I've got three cards to show you. These are all made with products from Crafter's Companion. The 1st is another dragon card made using one of the Lee Holland Dragon stamps. I love these little characters :) I've had coloured this using spectrum noir colour blend pencils. I just love how much of a fun looking card you can make with these stamps. Next is a card made using a unicorn stamp. This has also been hand coloured with pencils. I've also used some backing papers and matt mirror and glitter card from Sara's Enchanted forest collection. Finally I've made a card using my Crafter's Companion BeBunni CD. It's a while since I've used this cd but I forgot how cute these little bunnies are. All of the cards have been personalised with die cut numbers and letters for the names. Hope to see you all again soon. Rachel

In the Night Garden

This card is for an order I have been given. The lady wanted a card with an In the Night Garden theme and Igglepiggle for her Grandson. I found images on the internet and decoupaged the bottom pannel and added peel offs to this. Igglepiggle has been mounted onto white card which I have embossed using my dotty folder in my cuttlebug and then matted this onto co-ordinating blue card stock. The base card was from my cardstock stash which I have made a 21cm square card with. I then added peel off stars to finish the card off. Thanks for looking Hugs Rachel
