Male card

I made this card last year for my father in law.

I made the shed using the wood stamp from Stampin up and the image came from an old craft magazine that I have been reluctant to cut into.

I'm not someone who makes new years resolutions but I am planning on using up some of my craft stash this year.  I have some beautiful stuff but have always been reluctant to use it.  I think the theory being 'I won't be able to replace it' but as there is so many wonderful products out there, I need to use the stuff I have so I can buy more.

pompoms

Happy new year to you.

Don't you just love the word pompom?  If your answer is no then we can't be friends!  This Christmas I made some from netting so I could put them outside.  I used a pompom maker and they came together really quickly.  They were dangled on the branches of the acer along with some lights and beads.

Circle birds

I saw some birds made from circles on the sizzix website and thought I would have a go.

Quite pleased with how they turned out.

Boy card

This is the card I made using the 'from the herd' stamp from Stampin up.  The letters are cut with a sizzix die set.

New home for our boat

We have moved our little boat out of our friends barn (where it has been having a holiday for 18 months) and it now has a new home near Truro.

Garden visitors

A few weeks ago we saw this pair waddling down the road.  Then one evening they turned up in our garden.  Really cute.

Just sharing a few things I have been making

 

This is the card I made for my Dad for his birthday. 

(When he was a little boy and worried about anything, he would go to sleep thinking of circuses). 

 

 

Pink, glitter, cake, ice cream.  The only thing missing is pom poms!!

This one was Auntie Donna's card.
