Made from free gift with PaperCraft Essential's magazine


The free gift with this months issue of PaperCrafts Essentials is a set of decoupage sheets from CraftsUprint and here is one of the designs that I made up into an easel card. The original design is for a plate and comes with a stand but I used the elements to make an easel card instead.

Let it snow xmas card


Sadly I don't have any Clarity Stamps but Barbara Gray said to use what you got around you, so I hope I've gone some way to achieving this with this card. I believe the stamp is from Dimension 4th but I have had it a few years so I can't remember now and the tree stamp is one from Sheena Douglas Inkpad used throughout is Big & Juice Waterfall

Leftover's card


This card had been made almost entirely from left-overs. 
The embossed backing has come from a scrap of card after using the craft robo
The butterfly border was a scarp left over from a previous card
The flower was made from an insert that I accidentally printed onto photo copy paper 
by mistake so rather than waste the ink, I made the flower. The paper ribbon through the butterfly border 
and behind the flower were from the same insert

Birthday card for my sister


I have no idea which MCS disc the images came from but they are from one of them at least.

I printed the topper twice, added the text then painted crackle glaze over the top of the 3 rectangles. Then once they were dry, cut them out and decoupaged them onto the bottom layer to add a bit of dimension
