Good Evening!

I’m just popping in to share a card I sent to my Brother, he’s been traveling to America recently and he’s really enjoyed his visits, especially the food so I thought I’d make him a Birthday card to remind him of his travels. The card is in the shape of America with a portion of the American flag within it, it’s not the whole flag as I was worried that the stars would be too tiny. I added my Happy Birthday message using the Army Wide Stencil Font and placed my Brother’s name on the white stripe below in red, I’ve added the link to the font so you can personalise your card too if you wish :)

Hi There!

I have some house news, we have a date for moving now which is within the next fortnight so we have made a start on the packing. My craft table and stash are being packed away today so I won’t be able to do any crafting for 2 or 3 weeks but I have managed to do a few projects in advance which will be posted over that time. I’m hoping that you won’t see much difference here, I’ve been burning the candle at both ends for a couple of weeks to make sure that my design team post is ready and that you will have a few things to look at here too along with the usual freebies.

I’ve been designing my craft room in my head for so long now and dreaming about all of the projects I’ll be able to do in it, I’ll finally be able to get filming some videos again and I’ll have enough room to do more picture tutorials too. Apart from being my first ever craft room, this is our first home of our own so it’s a very exciting time for us :)

Onto your freebie, I have a Mothers Day Bendy Card for you today, Mothers Day is celebrated on different days around the World but ours is in a few weeks time so we need to start thinking about it now. I added a stenciled rose and leaves to the top and bottom of the sentiment and gave them a stained glass look by sandwiching some coloured vellum between the card base and the front layer. If you were thinking of doing the same be warned I found it to be quite fiddly, using just one colour of vellum would have been simpler ;)

Hello There!

I have a new addition to the Mix and Match Cards and Sentiments, this time there is a Bee theme. There is the little Bee that is used in the Bee Mine sentiment square and the backgrounds have a Honeycomb look with their Hexagon Patterns. The sentiment was made with Valentines Day in mind but the background panel and background card can be used for any occasion.

To show a slightly different way to cut the mix and match cards, I opened both the card and the sentiment square in my cutting software (Make the Cut), I ensured that my square was perfectly placed in the center of the patterned area of the card then removed the outside line only of the sentiment square. This allowed me to cut the patterned card with the sentiment as part of it, all at once, from one piece of card.  This does produce a decidedly 2 dimensional card but it does save on card stock and time if you are in a rush.
