Not Art Impressions today!!!

Hi everyone,

Thought today I would show another of the Kanban Moulin Divas ladies, these proved very popular at the weekend.  They are lovely stamps to work with and stamp really nicely!

Today's stamp is Belle Femme

 I came out of my comfort colours for this one, couldn't have a completely pink and purple table!!!

I actually really enjoyed using these colours for a change and will definitely use them more.

I have also used Crystal Stickles on this lady but unfortunately it doesn't really show in the photo!

The patterned paper is from a  First Edition paper pack called Isabelle - I had to use that !!!

(Youngest daughter!!)

And here she is.....

off to her Prom last week, I am going to be in soooooo much trouble if she sees this!!!!!

Well, that is all today,

Exciting times for me!!!!!

Hi everyone,

This is a big day for me, I am so happy to tell you that I have been invited to join the very talented Craft Barn DT!!!   How lucky am I??????  I have not been part of a DT before so this is very exciting for me.   

Anyway, today, is my first DT project on The Craft Barn blog, the theme this week is making elegant cards using Memory Box/Poppystamp dies, so although you can see my card here today, for the rest of the week on the blog you will be able to see the other DT members beautiful projects.

   So here is my card.....

     with a close up on the flowers....

            If you head over to the blog, you will be able to see how it was made!!!

Below you will see the items I used.

 Hope you like it.

See you soon,

A Kanban lady for you!!

I have been busy doing projects for The Craft Barn extravaganza which is at the end of June/beginning of July.  As I have to pace myself I thought I would get making a little while ago.  I am having  a great time playing with my Copics !!

                               So I thought I would share this lady with you today

She is one of the Kanban 'Moulin Divas - Tres Chic' girls.  Really nice to work with!!

I've coloured her with Copics and added some diecut and punched embellishments.

The little roses are die cut and then put together, great with Coredinations or Bazzill to keep everything matching!!

I'm sorry it is in my usual comfort colours but I have some more to show you which definitely aren't!!!!

It is my first time back teaching next week at The Barn, a Copic Masterclass, what else???  Will be nice to get back to a bit of normality!!

I am also taking a class on the Saturday afternoon of the extravaganza, again with Copics if anyone is interested.  I think there are a few spaces left.

Hope you like her,

Back soon,

Hi

Thought I would show you another card from the

Extravaganza, as you already know I was die cutting, something

I really like to do!!

I haven't been able to do much since the Extravaganza as I am

doing some wedding 'bits' for a friend.  Thank heavens for my Cricut as

it had to cut out 300 x 1/2" hearts, how long would that have taken by hand!!

Doesn't bear thinking about, just wish it could stick them too!!!!!

Anyway, here is the card.......

 

The base card was made from Grand Nesties - Scalloped Squares and embossed.

Because I used Coredinations card, it was sanded.  There is some of the lovely no

shedding glitter card which comes in really beautiful colours and gorgeous
doublesided Teresa Collins paper.
The rosettes are from the Tim Holtz Sizzlits die which is great as it cuts and creases
the fold lines which make it very easy!!  We like easy!!
The rosettes were very popular at the Extravaganza and I lost count how many of those
I made along with the roses that I have already shown you!!
The flourishes are also a Tim Holtz die.


Well, hope you have a good weekend,

I am taking the Copic Certification class on Sunday
so that should be a good day!!

Back again!!

Can't believe I am back here 3 days running!!!

I must try to keep to it......maybe not every day but as often as possible!!

For those of you who weren't at the Extravaganza at the weekend, I am busy playing

with my new toy, the Big Shot Pro!!

Wow, what a fabulous machine, although unfortunately the first one I

had was not cutting out properly and decided to go on strike at the weekend

right in the middle of the demo!!  Not good!!

Anyway the replacement cuts much better and I have been very busy with it.

There are some fantastic dies out there, something to suit everybody.

So tonight I am going to show you a little bag I made.

A Sizzix die, not especially for the BSP so can be used in the Cuttlebug or Big Shot.

Again, using Coredinations which has got to be my favourite card at the moment,

I cut the little bag and made it up.  Sanded all the edges which is excellent

if your card cracks on the fold line.......perhaps that is why I like it!



The little label is Spellbinders, Labels 20 (I think), cut and sanded.

Those gorgeous little roses again and the leaf is a Martha Stewart

punch, all sanded around the edges and stuck with a hot glue gun

which is my favourite adhesive at the moment. 

Hope you like it!!

See you soon,

Jane x
