Easel Box Card

 Morning and today I am Guest Designer on the  C.R.A.F.T Easel Card challenge and the sponsor is 

All Dressed Up but as I still have no printer I was allowed to go ATG and I made an easel box card using a tutorial from Beccys Place.

The die-cut leaf was a craft mag freebie,the die-cut wild flowers I believe are Memory Box and all the other elements are cut from the P.paper from Blooming Grunge from Craft&You.Cut some extra and put on 3-D foam pads.

Smash Your Stash-Metal

 Morning and wow last Saturday of the month so soon ---so time for the Smash Your Stash Journal page challenge with my talented blogging friend Vicki who makes amazing journal pages.The prompt this month was "Metal" ans I certainly raided my stash for this one lol.I found another pre-made background in my journal,I always use the pages for left over ink and cleaning stencils.

I embossed some matt mirri card with a TH embossing folder and swiped over with black acrylic,die-cut some cogs, and found a metal themed tag I made for a tag swap which got cancelled a couple of years ago.Agged some can tags,metal scre brads and a screwdriver brad I found,the two cornewr pices and shape the screwdriver is on were die-cut waste and then I found a large flower die-cut from metal I have had for years -think that was a TH die too.Hope you will pop over and check out Vickis blog too.

Triangle Accordian Pocket Card

 Morning and I have made a 5"x7" Triangle Accordian Pocket Card 

The patterned papers are from The Works and the happy birthday is a Tonic Die.I added a couple of tags in the pocket and have to admit the one with the extra piece on -I put first paper on upside down and it was meant to be the pink side too lol.Not much more to say really except it was really easy.

You Having a Giraffe

 Morning and my second post today is for a card made having a play with some a(to me ) Pink Ink stamps set-bought from someone on a FB selling page and had to have a play-made two but this is the first happy accident lol.

I had the brilliant idea of die-cutting the front to show the image inside-pity I didn't make sure the die-cut was the right was -so the image went in upside down -thought it was perfect with the sentiment so went with it.The image and sentiment are on 3-D foam pads,p.paper from The Works and promarkers on the image.

Travel Tag

 Morning and I have two posts today the first one is   for the mid month inspiration at Stamping Sensation Anything Stamped/Around the World challenge.

Two prizes on offer from Rare Earth and Tonic----
