Get well card

Hello all my crafty blogging friends, getting a bit of a regular on here again, aren't I? It is one of my new years resolutions to try and put aside a little blogging time, another resolution is to organise my stash better so I spend more time crafting and less time looking for things.

Last week with this in mind I started to organise my stamps, first by companies and then into categories, putting the Christmas ones away, sorting the birthday ones in to male, female, children, wedding, sentiments etc this revealed I had several Easter stamps  mmmmm why I wonder had I got so many Easter stamps? come to that why had I got 3 of the same wedding stamp? 

So when the snow was falling on Monday I thought it high time to ink a few of those Easter stamps, then out came the Copics and I made a few Easter cards. Well that got a few of you rushing for your diaries yesterday when I blogged an Easter card! I still have some more to share but I will save them for another day...

Todays card is a get well card that I made for my brother-in-law who had a knee op.

The recipe for this card is:

Main card: Craft Den white 8" x 8"

Backing paper: Bo Bunny Double Dot and oddments from off cut box

Stamps: Magnolia Nurse Tilda

Copics

Punch: Fiskars Star

Card Candi: Craftworkcards

Button, twine, bandage from stash

Hand written sentiment: Wishing you a very speedy recovery

All products used available from the Craft Den

Hope you like it.

Happy crafting hugs Lynne xox

Ben sent me a picture earlier that he had taken on his phone, it is a little bit grainy but not too bad, you will be able to guess who it is

just wondering what to do next!! lol It seems funny seeing walking at last. Now to look for that camera.

Nice change...

While in the midst of making and finishing off Christmas cards my Mum asked me to make a card similar to the one I made for her birthday, so here it is.


It was a pleasant change to make a birthday card after all the Christmas ones.


The card is 8"x8", a mix of Bo Bunny papers with DCWV Nana's nursery, Sugar Nellie stamp coloured with Copics, Viva Decor liquid pearl pen, flowers, brads and charms.



Hope you are all well on the way to finishing off your Christmas preparations. I have another couple of cards to make before I hit the sack, so better get on.

Quick Christmas cards.

A few quick Christmas cards I made last week for orders... in a hurry!!
I used the Bo Bunny St Nick stamp, lightly coloured with red water colour pencil used dry, Paper Artsy Rum & Raisin Christmas papers, only 3 of the designs in this pack are Christmas the rest can be used for all occasions. Matted and layered with a dark forest green card stock punched with a Martha Stewart punch.




This order was nothing with flowers or cute!! I have used a glittered Christmas tree sticker, blinged it up with some gems, Bo Bunny St Nick and double dot paper, Cuttlebug snowflake die, added some white tulle and a couple of Craftwork cards sentiments.

More Birthday cards

Just a quick post tonight. I can now show you a couple more birthday cards I made at the weekend. They are both 8" x 8" I really enjoy making large cards. I have used papers from Bo Bunny My Darling collection and pink Bazzill.
