For the Bride & Groom xo

Here is the wedding card I made for

my sister Jackie and her Husband Jason

on their Wedding Day!

6th March 2010

(Yesterday!)

Yes, it matches perfectly with the invites, and table decorations etc... of course! :-)

Stamps: Baroque Motifs

Ink: Always Artichoke, Chocolate Chip, Blush Blossom

Card: Always Artichoke, Chocolate Chip, Blush Blossom, Very Vanilla

Accessories: Chocolate Chip Ribbon, Bling (centre of flowers)

Tools: Scissors, Stamp-a-majig, Adhesives including Dimensionals.

(This is the card on page 94 of the 09/10 IBC, in different colours)

I made this card for valentines day, it's a favourite of mine.

I've personalised it in Jason and Jackie's wedding colours for them.

Did anyone notice another colour in there that hasn't been part of any of the wedding bits til now? Blush Blossom. It is the perfect match to our Bridesmaid dresses,

making it the perfect addition to my card.

Congratulations to Jason and Jackie on their special day xoxo

It was such a beautiful wedding.

I will share a photo of the stunning bride and her handsome groom with you soon.

Fresh Cut Valentines xo

Nearly finished the 19 Valentines cards on order at Mark's work... but I must say, I'm glad Valentines only comes once a year! I actually got a Creativity Block last night when I sat down at my craft desk. Now this doesn't happen too often, but I think I've had so much Valentines on my mind, my head went all mushy! lol

It took a while to think what to do, until I opened up my draw and there looking up at me was a pack of Fresh Cut Notes! I wish I had of thought of these days ago...

So quick to make, believe it or not, I had these 3 cards together in under an hour, glitter and all!

I even decorated the envelopes with DSP...

After completing my order I thought to myself... oh why not make a 20th card and make sure that Sharlini who has organise all this gets one too. What's one more Valentines Card? lol.

I've had this card with me since we made it at our Fresh Inspiration Day back in June last year, I've hung onto it for that perfect occasion. All I've added are some Rub-Ons in the bottom left corner and converted this shabby card (Created by Liz) into a special Valentines card for Sharlini's husband to give to her. Well that was just too easy! hee hee hee

Happy Valentines to all... let the love be everywhere!

Did someone say Valentines Card?

As you may have read in my last posting... I have an order for 19 Valentines Cards for Mark's work. Seems there were many of the boys/men there who liked the idea of not going to the shops in the search of the perfect Valentines gift, when they could order it from work, and even get a lovely handmade card with it!

So today I've been back to the drawing board for more Valentines ideas. I liked the last one I made from the Catalogue using "Three Little Words" so I made it this time in a different colour scheme... Ruby Red & Chocolate Chip!

While the Catalogue seemed to be doing me good, I thought I would try my luck on another idea from there. I made this one, again, straight from the catalogue. Page 94, using Baroque Motifs.

Stay tuned... there will be more!

A Valentine Card or 2 or 3 or even 19!

Yes that's right... 19!

Guess what I'm busy making for the next few days...

Valentines Cards!

My darling man Mark took a couple of cards into work on Friday for what I thought was a donation for a valentines raffle for the social club... but instead these were passed around and orders were collected for me to make 19 cards in total for the blokes to give their loved ones on Valentines Day!

Each order placed is for a Handmade Card and a Chocolate Rose, even a Bottle of Wine can be included, and the best part for the boys is... they didn't have to go to the shops to get this!

$5 from each Valentines pack will go towards the social club... what a great idea! Well done to Shalini for thinking up this little treat for valentines, but now...

I've got 19 cards to make, & each unique!

Here's a start...

This was a card adapted from one we had made

at a Paper Angels Meeting last year

featuring the 'Together Forever' set.

I changed my 'Pocket Silhouettes' Card from last week slightly

and created this one suitable for the one you love!

This is a card inspired by a swap

from our Brisbane Regionals featuring the 'Always' set.

No credits for this one, I adapted this straight from the

Idea Book and Catalogue pg114 using the 'Three little words' set.

It's back to the craft room for me now to make some more!
