Peace on Earth

Happy Saturday to you all.  Sorry I’ve been very quiet on my blog lately – it’s been a difficult time for our family with the very sad loss of my lovely father-in-law a couple of weeks ago.  He was a very special guy and is going to be so missed by us all.

Peace on earth (1)Today I’m sharing a card I made a couple of weeks ago that’s basically another version of THIS one!  I quite like this design and it has LOADS of options to change it up – might be a mass production candidate for this year’s holiday cards!

Right, off to get ready – we’re heading to the cinema to see the Hunger Games: Catching Fire this afternoon (v. excited!!).

Hopefully be back to share some more projects again very soon.

10 Minute Craft Dash #29 – two for the price of one!!!

CD_29It’s time for another 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge and this time round Paulina’s asking us to feature buttons.  I have SO MANY BUTTONS but they’re not something I use all that much.  Guess this is the perfect challenge to use those supplies that we all have lurking in our cupboards and drawers!

I actually made two cards for this challenge and both were done in super-quick time – especially the second one – just over three minutes!!In Stiches Snowflake button

I’m really whizzing through these Christmas cards – have a good wee stack sitting there now!

The sponsor this time round is Denami Design who are offering one lucky winner a $20 store credit – woohoo!  Head over to Paulina’s blog Pretty Pink Posh for all the deets and for more button inspiration!

It’s sunny – so here’s a sunshiney card!

Hellooooo!  Here to share a card I made for my lovely sister-in-law Nikki who has recently become the newest member of the “40” club!  She has always loved the colour yellow and sunflowers are one of her favourites (they always remind me of her) so I immediately grabbed the Blooming Marvellous set from Clearly Besotted when I sat down to make her a card.

The little “40” was cut using the modern numbers dies from PTI and the sentiment is from Big Birthday Wishes.

Well, better get back to work – groan!
