I’ve been at it again…


..with the sewing machine!! I love this cut from the Mickey and friends cricut cart. She’s great for a little girls birthday card I think. I had a bit of a problem with the daimond glaze which went on a wee bit thick in places so tried to cover it up with glitter!! Not brilliant but hopefully the sparklies will distract people from the mistake!! The pp is from a HUGE pack I got at Costco yonks ago. Most of it got given away to the kids craft box but I did keep a few select sheets – namely the pink ones!!

My latest "thing" is…

..STITCHING! I LOVE stitching on cards but being inherently lazy, I have never had the inclination to drag my sewing maching out from the bottom of my wardrobe. Well last night I had an urge to dust it off so get used to seeing some random higgeldy piggeldy lines appearing on most of my cards for the forseeable future. lol. I tried it out on this card which is for this weeks Sketch Saturday challenge. It was a great sketch to follow and as you can see it’s that girl again. This time her hair has a more “auburn” look to it.

Oh and guess what? My promarkers came this morning! I only ordered them yesterday so that really is service. Thanks for the hints and tips you’ve given me so far and for the article Julie. I have had a play and they are very different to my usual technique. Will have to practice with them a bit I think.
