Good morning everyone. Today sees the start of a new challenge on the Kraftyhands Blog. This month we would love to see your take on 'Tag-tastic', so decorate a tag to your hearts content and then add it to the challenge for all to see.

British Craft Network

Well after a little hiccup yesterday morning it seems the network is fine. It is not great watching on my iPad but is good on the computer. I wonder what you are all thinking of it.
Kraftyhands will be on this evening with their Butterfly Botanicals CD. It's a fab cd, here are my design team cards. Hope you enjoy the show and all the other  shows from the crafters we have been missing seeing.

It's a Girl

No not for me! Just a card I have made for my neighbour.  I have used a topper from an Art Pad from Lili of the Valley called Little Ones. It has lots of toppers suitable for both boys and girls. I have added my favourite corners and some ribbon bows and a little pearl heart. Backing paper from Kraftyhands Finishing Touch CD. Hope you like.

Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen and 21 Today

Today I have a card I made for my neighbour for her Granddaughter who is sixteen this week. It is made with sheets printed from the Cd included with the Create-It magazine from Kraftyhands,issue 2.
The Cd also includes video tutorials so that you can make the 10 cards along with Mike and Ian. You can of course make your own version of the cards as I did.
I used a Petra's corner die and added some card candy and flowers from my stash.
The photo is a bit dark but rainbow mirror card is difficult to photograph on a sunny day.

My second card was for another neighbour for her Grandson. The photo frame is a Spellbinders die and the key is a cake decoration.She was so pleased with it that she brought us a box full of freshly baked scones. Yummy!!!

Thank you for visiting today
