Shaped cards...

I seem to have a thing for shaped cards at the moment. They involve lots of handcutting but are so worth the effort.

These two were made for Daisie Company CT - I love the aeroplane the best :) I made some more but I can't share them just yet.

Back update...

I had my MRI scan today at the hospital on my back, hopefully the medics will now be able discover exactly what has gone wrong and be able to plan how to fix it!!

I uploaded some cards to the galleries this morning that I made during the week for Daisie Company. If you have a spare half hour or so you really should visit their online store as they have a great group of designers.

Love cats?

If you love then cats then you really ought to buy Victoria Hutto's Here Kitty Kitty digital kit at Daisie Company. I made the two cutest cards with this kit and I know just the person to send them to.

I've also been playing with Kate's latest collaboration kit, Funky Junky Spring Fling, it's fantastic and each Funky Junky kit that is released just seems to get better and better. I made a card that has an acetate overlay, it reminded me how useful acetate is as I haven't used it in ages. I had to dig down to the bottom of my drawer to find it but was really pleased with the card so it was worth dismantling my workshop to find it!!

A little bit of 'enabling'...

Today hasn't been a good day for my poor back so I have consoled myself with window shopping and a few purchases from my favourite digi stores :)

Have I told you all to visit Kay Miller's fabulous digi store? She designs the most fabulous digital kits. Now I'm not a very technical person, but anyone can print out a few papers and cut out a couple of elements and glue them all together right? So that was what I was doing at the weekend with her new kit Love You Bunches.

Whilst I was looking for those images on my hard drive I found this card that i hadn't shared with you, it's made with Kay's All Organic kit.

Now, do you know any boys - or girls who would like to be boys come to that! If you do then you need to go to Daisie Company and buy Don Tate's rocket digi kit. It has the sweetest rockets, spaceships and spacemen that are just perfect for boy things. What are you waiting for? Go and buy!!!!!!

Over at Prima I've been playing with all sorts of lovely goodies and there are plans afoot for excitement next week. Last week my Mam's Uncle died, he was the last of 4 brothers and the family found this photograph that had never been seen before. It's my Great Grandmother and her 4 sons, the one at the front on the right was my Grandad. I did a bit of touching up in Photoshop and made the picture into these lovely cards for my Mam to send to our other relatives so that we all have a copy of the photograph.

I've just got time to share this card that has sat half finished in my pile of 'stuff' for over 2 weeks but I finally finished it off and I love it. It was one of those things that you start without a plan and can't quite see where it's going or what to do next. I'm glad I left it and came back to it.

Catch up Saturday ...

I'm playing catch up today. When I've been able to get on my computer I've been concentrating on Design Tem commitments so there is quite a bit to share. Apologies for all the pictures :)
