Lots of Cards

Hello everyone, yes I know its been a while, sorry I'm not the best blogger but I will keep going and try to improve.  The apology is for Jan and Liz who called to see me today and I promised to blog tonight, I think I calmed the situation with a cup of tea but had better put plenty of cards on just in case the cuppa failed.  I have been really busy yesterday and today getting everything ready for the all day workshops which have taken off really well.  The project below is from last months workshop, I really must put some photos in mine, yes they will all be of my mad dog Jazzy.
The next picture is the box we made to put the frames in so you can give it as a gift.

We have had in the second collection from Craftwork cards which I just had to have as it is named Warren and that was my maiden name.  It is all really pretty and I really enjoyed the cards I made.  





Sorry about the quality of the photos my camera really didn't like the shinny paper!!!
The next cards are made with the Botanical range, I love the blue and green together.


My last card is one we made in the workshop on Saturday, I would like to welcome Sue who joined us for the first time, also a big hello to Brenda, Deb and Cathy my lovely Saturday morning gang.
Well off to bed for me, thanks for looking, 
Deb xx

Owl Mad!!!

Well I had a day off yesterday but all I did was boring housework, carpets that were desparate to be shampooed  due to my furry beast not wiping her feet after shes been for a walk (Jazzy) and much washing and ironing, so today I can play with bits of paper and card and design my other card for Saturday's class.
We had a lovely all day workshop on Tuesday and I promised Liz and Jan I would put my Owl cards on the blog, they are made with some Woodware clear stamps we have had in  and are sooooooo cute. 






I have used pro markers to colour the owls and the flowers in on the two brown 8x8 cards and stamped the owl onto two different papers on the last card.  The swirls are Sizzix dies and I used card and ribbon out of the shop which I am afraid I treat as my own private stash ( I also pay myself in craft goodies aswell).
Thanks for looking,

Cards with Cookies, YUMMY!!!!!!!

Hi to all, card making combined with cookies what a good idea!!  I made this card for something a bit different for one of the Saturday morning classes, I must add that not all the ladies cookies made it into the card some disappeared when we had the coffee break!! 

I made the apron template and thought it would be good to make a card and gift all in one.  Cathy one of the Saturday morning gang bought in the following week some cards she had made with Easter Eggs and Chicks on the front of the card and then filled the bag with Mini Eggs which is even more yummy.

We have had loads of new things in the shop including Sizzix dies, Spellbinder dies, lots of new stamps, ink pads, papers and I am expecting my Craftwork cards order in tomorrow so loads of lovely Card Candy and other goodies.  I will take lots of pics now I have eventually remembered to buy batteries for my camera and post soon.
I have a busy day tomorrow as it is the all day workshop on Tuesday and I still have some prep to do and a cake to make of course.
I don't seem to get enough time to do all I want, my head is full of ideas at the moment, I really seem to have got my inspiration back but isn't that always the case.
Thanks for stopping by,
Deb
