Quick Card

Here's another card I made using a digi stamp from Whimsie Doodles.

Crafty Essentials

I know on quite a lot of the blogs I follow people have done posts on their top crafting products.I thought I would do a number of posts on my favorite products. One of the best things I have purchased is the ATG tape gun I have two of them actually. A pink one which dispenses a  narrower tape and yellow one which has a thicker tape.

The guns make applying double sided tape so easy and the adhesive ATG use is so strong. Its brill for all types of projects. Its one of those products I now couldn't live without I would advise people to purchase it :) quite often. I got mine here http://www.3mselect.co.uk/p-2422-scotch-advanced-tape-glider-kit.aspx and its on sale at the moment for 11.99.

I will be doing some more posts in the next few weeks on some of my other top products so keep an eye out for them.

Another Quick Card

Just another quick post this evening, here is another card I made using a whimsie doodle digital stamp. I loved this stamp when I saw it, a nice cute image and a great sentiment. 

I made a simple card by mounting the stamp on some blue card stock and then covering a 6x6 card blank in some blue paper from the potobello road collection. 

Quick Card

I have been making lots of cards using some of the Whimsie Doodle digital stamps, check them out here http://www.whimsiedoodles.com/

They are such cute images, I love them and there are regualr new releases so plenty to download. I have made about 20 or so cards using these stamps so will be sharing them with you over the next few weeks. Here is the first one of the cards which I used a cute beach pig stamp for I then teamed it with some pink papers and a pink ribbon. The card is all wrapped ready to be sold so the Ribbon looks a bit squished. Im really happy with this card though really feel like I am making progress with my cardmaking skills :)

I'm Back

So I have been really busy pretty much ever since my Birthday back at the start of May, I have still managed to find time to craft and have even been selling some craft at local craft stalls and summer fetes. I have kept meaning to blog about all the different things I have been making but just don't seem to have had chance.

Im determined to make July a month where I get back into doing my blog regularly so hopefully lots of you will still pay a visit and read what I have been up to. Hopefully I will get a chance to pop round to all your blogs too to check out the lovely things you have been making.

Fabric Pinboard

I have seen fabric pinboards everywhere this year they seem to be really in fashion. I decided rather then spending £20 on one I would have a go at making my own. 

All it took was some fabric, some ribbon, pins and a staple gun. It was super easy to make and I am really happy with the result. I think I am going to try and make some more so I can have a few around my flat to brighten it up :) 

Boofle

I love boofle I think he is such a cute character so I was really excited when boofle crafting supplies were released earlier this year.

I have some of the boofle embossing folders but so far only one stamp that came free in the last issue of Do Crafts magazine. I did a quick card with this free stamp as an experiment and I am fairly happy with the result as it was something I throw together in half an hour.

The card was done on some of the square papermania recycled card blanks. The paper used to back the image was from some freebie paper I had in a magazine ages and and the image was coloured with promarkers. I added some ribbon along the fold to give the card some extra interest.
