Spoil Yourself!

well its been a few days since i blogged and my aim since last training day is to blog everything i create so here is my creation from this week, this is a card i made for my freind in the birthday club in work, i thought her birthday was this week, well it turns out its not until the end of the month so i am very organised...for a change!!

i love the All Dressed Up bundle for simple quick cards.

BIRTHDAY CARD

My GORGEOUS birthday card off my Stampin Up mam, i love the colours used together and the way she mixed the colours of the embossing powders over the Ex Libris stamp and the 'Happy Brithday' sentiment, and the All Dressed up dress makers bust die cut using glimmer paper, makes it look so glamarous!

Polly Put The Kettle On!

A Card i made for my mam for mothers day, this card was very apt as she has about 10 cups of tea a day and always makes her tea in the pot, hence the little tea pot charm.  she loved it!!

Dapper Dad!

These are my Training Day male themed cards, i loved putting together these cards, it's great to get some idea's for mens cards, i like the combo of the Night Of Navy and Crumb Cake cardstock together, the stamp set used Dapper Dad, Bring On Cake, Delightful Dozen, Natural Trim Ribbon, Basics Designer Buttons, the stamp sets and Accessories are from the new Spring/Summer cataogue, which is jam packed with lots of fab goodies!!

Male themed swap

This week at training day it was all based around male themed as quite a few of us struggle with mens cards....definatly me!! Also fathers day is approaching so we were all asked to go out of our comfort zone and do a male swap, well i always seem to go foe crumb cake when i come to do a mens card, i just love the authentic grungy look especially with the edges blended with a bit of soft suede ink.  I decided to use the distressed dots and en francis and the background as these are quite uni sex stamps depending what colour they are stamped in, i do like a splash of colour so i had to go with pool party to freshen it up a bit, i distressed the edges of the pool party card stock, using my new distress tool, other stamps used were teeny tiny sentiments, bring on the cake and ciao baby all stamped in chocolate chip ink, puches used were word window, petite curly label and curly label, i used the linen thread through the curly lablel punch out, i edges the base card with a faux stirched outline this just finished it off.

i also thought i'd add a picture of my fab cup cake we all got....cookie monster!! Brilliant!
