Challenge

Hi guys, Happy Easter to everyone... It has been a full on few days of Easter, firstly have not been feeling well, am feeling better now, thankfully, but have still managed to drag myself out to the festivities. We had my niece's 21st birthday on Sat night - the post of the 21st album, it was a good night, and my niece thoroughly enjoyed herself. :) We went to my brother-in-laws for Easter lunch on Sunday, and today we are having my mum and step-dad over for a visit...

The above post was an entry for the challenge at tomorrow's memories, which my lovely friend, Maree, the twins mum won, good on her! :) maybe I might win the next one, wish me luck....I have also entered a few other challenges for other craft shops which I will hopefully post soon, and have quite a few other projects I have done, which I will also post...I hope you enjoy looking at my posts. And please don't forget to follow my blog, so I can come over and check out your blog. Thanks for looking,

Jo :)

21st Album & matching card...

OMG how excitement, my second entry on my blog page...
This is a 21st album that I have made for my niece, who turns 21 in April.
The album is by kaisercraft, the papers used are also kaisercraft - Airy Fairy series.
I have used kaisercraft bling, coloured in the purple ones, using my lovely promarkers.
The flowers I have made using the Tim Holtz Alterations Die (which I now use a lot), the leaves are cut out using my cricut machine, I have added some ribbons from my stash and have used the Kaisercraft wooden flourishes (butterfly) and coloured in using my promarkers, yet again.
I have added photos of my niece throughout her years through the middle of the album, and decorated using kaisercraft bling, wooden flourishes, promarkers etc.
And here is the matching card, using the same papers as the album. I have added butterflies, cut out with my EK Success punch. Now I just need to write in the middle and it's all done...
Hope you like my post,
bye for now
Jo :)

Wedding card

Hello there bloggers, Well this is my first entry onto my new blog page, I hope it works for me.... I have made this wedding card for my nephew who got married in March. I have used a Tilda image, which I borrowed from a friend, The Twins Mum and coloured it in with my promarkers, which I love, but am still getting used to. I have used some paper from my stash, on card and envelope, used a paper doily from my stash which I have inked around the edges. I made the roses with the Tim Holtz Alterations Die, I have cut out my envelope using my brand new Cricut machine. Please become a follower of my blog, so I can come over and check out your blog.
