Christina Griffith card making magic all in one collection January edition


Hi 
I was asked by The In2craft guys to make a couple of projects using the new Christina griffith cardmaking magic January edition  kit and  its free gifts inside the issue . you can find it  HERE in the In2craft shop
Here you can see  a quick video of the free items you receive in the kit.


.

The blue card  above was made using one of the projects in the mag as inspiration but i changed a couple of things to make it my own .I used all the free items to create the card.flower stamps and dies, leaf stamps,flourish die, i also used the template as a stencil 




The easel card above  i created using the  papers,flower dies, butterfly stamp and flourish die  from the kit and dies from other companies to show that you can mix and match the free items with your own stash at home


This card is very basic and shows the embossing folder off well . it does emboss very deeply and as you can see i didnt use much else on the card . .It would make a really nice sorry , thank you or even with a bit more embellishing ... a nice wedding invitation.
I hope that ypu like the cards and that you pop over to In2craft and have a look at their facebook page for whats new in craft land and also have a look at their shop where i know you will find amazing prices ... 
Happy crafting

Always in my heart ...






Hi
Here is my mid month inspiration project. for Craft-deebowz.   I thought i would get ahead for Valentine's day and make something with a heart /love theme . For a change i have not made the focal point from a hand colored image but have used the Today Bouquet die set from tonic .I have just cut the different dies in lilac and white and simply layered them up to create the pretty heart topper. I have used a Tonic sentiment strip die for the sentiment across the middle .



The flowers are from wild orchid and the flourishes are cut from Marianne D designs dies



The triple loopd bow was formed using thin lilac ribbon and my Craft-Dee BowZ maker which makes beautiful bows every time with ease .

Hi all 
Happy New year to you all .. I hope you have enjoyed the festivities with your friends and, family
I had a very quiet Christmas really enjoyed it with my partner ,my daughter and my beautiful Granddaughter Lyra .
It is time for the first  challenge of 2019 for  Craft-deebowz.    . The theme as always is anything goes with a handmade bow.The sponsor is a new one to Craft-deebowz.    and is the fab Fred-she-said
Fred She Said Designs offers a wide variety of digital products with a floral flair and cute characters too - Digi's, Pre-colored images, Papers, Sets, Fred's Flower Kits, and even digital cutting files. Have some fun with Fred!

I chose the sweet image called Emma with sign and you can find here HERE.I coloured her with promarkers


  



The papers and sentiment inside are from the paper boutique and are called  Misty morning .

 The flowers also come with the image as a set and i just resized them and printed them out a few times on matching misty morning papers.I then edged them in black sharpie pen so they matched and added a gem centre.





Foe the bow i  used thin ribbon which i formed into a triple looped bow with my trusty  Craft-deebowz. bow making tool
