What have we all been up to this week?
I managed to get a few crafty items made this week.
It was my nephews 1st birthday on Friday I made 2 cards for him. They are a little different to what I usually make, much simpler in their design.
Materials used: square card blank, paper printed from freebie disk (crafters companion), ribbon from stash, chipboard letters from a QVC kit.
Materials used: tri-fold card blank, papers from stash (k&co I think!), buttons from paper mania, ribbon - paper mania, stickers form QVC kit, 3d sticker from stash, see d's mini stamp, clear inkpad, brown inkpad, silver embossing powder.
Techniques used: tearing, distressing, stamping and embossing.
The large number 1 and the letters "{ONE}" were cut out, stamped using seed's mini stamp and embossed. A bit fiddly but worth the effort. The photo is not very clear, but the effect was worth the effort!
I managed 2 layouts this week. One in memory of my dad whose birthday it would have been on Wednessday. I think there is something missing from the bottom left corner, a subtitle? anyway I have put it away and I will take another look at it again soon.
Materials used: Papers from DCWV black&white prints stack, buttons and brads from Paper mania. Large letters -stencil printed from computer, cut from black card.
The second layout has been waiting for a long time to be completed. I loved the photo because I never knew it had been taken, and it is rare to catch Mikael smiling!
Materials used: cardstock from paper mania, pattern paper from stash (creating keepsakes and k&co), accetate overlay printed from my computer, ribbons from stash, chipboard bees from QVC kit.
The journaling is in a little book centre left. I hand wrote the entry but wish i'd used the computer now!
No ATC's this week, naughty girl!LOL. I will have to do some soon.
Have a crafty week
