Forever Friends Week 21

This is something I do for fun, post a Forever Friends card every Sunday. I would love anyone to join in, i started this to use up my stash, so if you feel the same way, join with me. Link back to my blog, leave a comment and I can add a link to this post so I can come and see your work to.

This card is based on a project by Clare Curd in Creativity Club over at docrafts. I have made my own version of this with products I have and with a different sentiment as a background panel. I hope you like.

Forever Friends Sunday Week 20

2 days to go until my plaster is off... Well they will do more tests, then decide.

Welcome to another week of Forever Friends Sunday, Week 20. Have I really been doing this for 20 weeks. This is an A6 card blank, inspired by Clare Curd. Next week I hope to get back to my original designs and crating the designs I have come up with whilst being in bed.

This is using a sticker, Scribbly flower stamp, distress inks and one of the Forever Friends Paper Packs. Not sure which anymore, unless i dig around,but can not do that at the moment.

I do not mind anyone joining me on my Forever Friends Sunday or any of the product days, please leave a comment here so I can come and look at your work to. And I can leave a link in the original post, so people can come and look at your work too. However it is just for fun at the moment. I will start prices soon

Penny Black At All Sorts and Saturday Challenge

It has been a while since I have participated in challenges. So here is a card for two challenges. I have lots and lots and lots of Penny Black stamps. One draw which is nearly full of clear stamp sets, and nearly two draws full of Penny Black wooden stamps. At my last count, i nearly have £900 worth of wooden and clear stamps. With the Limited Edition stamps coming out any day and the Christmas collection coming out, I think I may hit the £1000 mark.

I have been thinking that I might run a similar thing like my Forever Friends Sunday where one day in the week I show you a Penny Black card / project.  Hopefully this will encourage me to use up my stash and get my moneys worth. It has worked for me with my Forever Friends theme.

The Challenge at Penny Black At All Sorts is to make a card with the theme Flower Power. The card below has flowers as embellishments. They were white flowers coloured in with the same promarkers as the image. I hope this counts.

Over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge the theme is Desert Island Stamp, which stamp would you take to a Desert Island.  Although the Ginger Stamp from Penny Black is a favourite of mine. I have begun to love this La Soiree stamp from Penny Black. I think today if I was going to a Desert Island I would take this stamp (and try to sneak a few more in my pockets...)

Cute Companions Demo Card

Hey, I am doing well this week with this Demo Card post. Its on time! Here is my final card that I have to show you from demo card samples from the Cute Companion Range. I made the purchases at Kim's Crafts who now have an online shop too. So you can still be naughty in their very nice shop without leaving your home!

I showed this card before but in a different colour, to show those who attended the demonstration that if you see a card and you like the idea, but not the colours. You are the crafter, take the idea and you can change the colours and make it your own.I do like this neutral earth colour.

Ingredients:

Cute Companions Dressing Up Stamp

The blog candy has now ended, I will reveal the winners tomorrow.

Cute Companions Demo Card

Here is another Cute Companions Demo card, again a day late! Oh well, i am sorry.

I used one of the little stamps for the background and punches. This card was inspired by Clare Curd. I only have one more Cute Companions Demo card to show next week. I still have Born to Shop Demo cards, Penny Black demo cards. However since Christmas is everywhere, I think I will start showing those cards too.
