New Header!

Finally got around to making a proper heading to the blog!
For the background image I used a photo of one of my cards, and I love the result! Sooooo much better than the old one with just text!!

Birthday Card

I decided to make a card using one of my papers that I've had for a while, but had never figured out what to do with. Here is the final result:

And this is what it looks like standing up

Flower Card

This is a card I made today. Everything was cut using my Cameo. Added a ribbon, some distress ink and some glitter glue to get the finished project.

Finished card (sorry about the shadow of my finger in the corner, hehe!)

I bent the flower up to get a 3D effect

New cardmaking stuff!

The cardmaking stuff I ordered on Sunday arrived yesterday, I could not believe how quick it got here! And here it is:

I got 4 more dragon stamps, 3 liquid pearls, some ribbons and silicone adhesive for 3D decoupage.

I've actually got a day off today, so I'm off to try out the new equipment and hopefully make some cards!

Blog Challenge

Just a quick post to say thank you for all the nice comments I've had on my card! Wasn't expecting comments after joining the challenges, but its been really great! Will definetly try to do more challenges, its been great fun!

Unfortunately I haven't had time to make any more cards the last couple of days, but I did manage to order some more stuff! Amongst other things I got some more dragon stamps from Wild Rose Studios (had to really, I love those cute dragons!) and some liquid pearl that I've been wanting to try for a while now (I think I ended up buying 3 different colours so I hope I like using them! Hehe!). I'll try to post a picture of my new stuff when it gets here :)

Happy crafting!

Dragon Birthday Card

Here is a birthday card i made today, and my first card featuring a dragon (I loooove dragons!!)
I also tryed out my new distressing ink and I quite like the look of it. Will definetly keep using it! I used my Cameo to cut out the oval and the frame around the dragon, the dragon stamp is from Wild Rose Studio. For the 'Happy Birthday' i used black and glitter embossing powder. I also used some Stickles for the candles.

For a Friend

 Here is a card I made for a friend of mine that I work with at the hospital. She had finished her cannulation course so I made her this card for fun :)

 

Valentines Day

This one i made for my boyfriend for Valentines Day. (The idea i got from underacherrytree.blogspot.com). Everything was cut out with the Cameo.

Valentines Day card (the little letters I cut out and they were a pain to glue on to the card! (as you can probably tell as some of them arent straight...)

I put some of the puzzle pieces on with 3D pads to get a nice effect.

Another Birthday Card

Here is a card I made over the weekend for my father in laws birthday last week:
