Happy Valentines Day....

Happy Valentines Day to you all,

I'm here to share my Valentines card that I've made for my hubby .
I hope he likes it!!!
As you know, most men don't like fussy cards so I dug out my my circle and heart dies and tried to keep the layers to a minimum.


I used the wonderful Funkyhand I love you sew download


How to make my card:
I cut circles out of a piece of white card and matted and layered it onto a grey sheet of card.
Circles and hearts were cut out of the papers and glued down. I also cut out the word love with my new die.
I typed my sentiment onto the papers too.

Remember the lovely funkettes are sharing lots of inspiration daily over at Get Funky and Craft during February.

Smiling Owls...

Morning lovely crafters,

What a beautiful sunny weekend we've had here and it's the same today. It might be chilly out there but inside is cosy.


I'm here to share with you the new weekly sketch challenge over at From the heart stamps. The twist this time is to use embossed cardstock. 
I am loving being a GDT, not sure what I'll do when it comes to an end in a few weeks.

For my card I used  the Smiling Owls digital stamp-adorable isn't it. I dug out my Tim Holtz Woodgrain stencil, embossed it on my ebosser and inked it up.For a change I wrapped ribbon around a piece of card and dug out my little wooden letters and heart button.





So why not join in with us so why not pop over here.

Challenges:

fab n funky challenge-245-hearts-and or-flowers
little miss muffet challenge-103-all-you-need-is-love

Love, Love, Love

Hi all,
I'm popping by today to share with you a make using 1 of the 5 love themed paper downloads by the lovely Anice.
There are posts everyday in February by the talented funkettes. So why not go to our Funkyhand inspiration blog called Get Funky and Craft




This is 1 of my favourite collections as it's not just for a love themed project. All of  the Funkyhand digital papercraft downloads always have several sheets that you can use for any occasion, which makes them so versatile.

On Pinterest I saw a card that used jigsaw pieces on a card and remembered that I'd been bought some blank little jigsaw pieces for stamping on a few years ago by my hubby, so I decided to draw around them and cut them out of these yummy papers.

I really enjoyed playing with these papers again. Remember that all these Love downloads papers are available for a special price of £1, fab value. 

Challenges:

Gosh it's been a busy week with DT posts and trying to keep up to date. Hope you're all well and thank you so much for visiting me and leaving lovely comments.

Hugs Debbie xx

Good Afternoon all,

Wow, it's a beautiful sunny day in East Riding of Yorkshire, rather chilly too but cosy inside working at my dining table - well I say working, I'm playing.I have my lovely Dad's birthday cards to make before Thursday and quite a few cards etc to make as it's a busy DT week for me and lots of posts.
I'm having a coffee to spur me on......

Anyway enough waffling I'm here to share with you the new weekly sketch challenge over at From the heart stamps. The twist this time is to use a handmade embellishment. 

So I used:

Challenges:

Right I'd better get cracking with my to do list.....Have a fab day whatever you're up to and thank you for popping to see me.
