Spring Couture cards

Time to post, Grandaughter asleep, having a coffee. deciding which cards to post today.



Ok, just had a look and realise I hadn't posted the Couture 1 samples. So I will post a couple a day.
The first has been coloured with Spectrum Noirs, a lovely spring birthday card.
The second has papers from the Tattered Lace CD and the lace is from Ribbonbox. The corner die has been cut twice to form this pattern.
Watching the Craft Clinic at the moment, Jak has the second release of the Couture dies on.
A lot of the techniques can be done with either release because of the style of the dies.
Happy Crafting.

More Couture 2 sample cards.




Had a lovely morning at Colemans warehouse watching the demos and meeting up with friends. Great demos this time with Jodie from Tonic and Ali from Stamps away. 
Late lunch, housework, now I'm watching my friend Sue Wilson on C&C with her new dies.
See you next Sunday Sue.
Studio is calling but will have to wait 'till after dinner.
Today's cards are from the Couture 2 release. Love colouring these panels with Spectrum Noirs and putting acetate on the back for support.

Butterfly Wishes





No snow today, just bright sunshine and blue skies but very cold.
A few more Spellbinders cards today, may have a change tomorrow but there are a few more in the album still to go . That's the problem with not blogging for about five months a build up of cards to show, but at least I can post more than 1 a day.
Having fun playing with some new goodies, you have a least another week before you will even see a sneak peeks.

Rabbits, Squirrel, Dragonfly from Spellbinders







As everybody is loving the Spellbinders, I thought I would show a few more.
Had to add my favourite the dragonfly, well I just like them full stop.
The background on the rabbit card was made with Soectrum Noir Aquatints, great for easy backgrounds. With the range of colours you can be bold or gentle, up to you.
It is snowing again, I will be glad when  Spring is officially here, I don't like it too hot, just comfortable.
Well my studio is warmed up so off to work I go.

Fun with Spellbinders



We are having the right weather for this little bird.

A great card for the men in our lives.


An easel card with a debossed Thank You.

Well it's snowing again tonight, didn't realise it had until I left my shed to head to the house.
I wonder what  it will be like tomorrow, good job I've borrowed my husbands heater from his garage.
New products to play with, hopefully tomorrow, please bring them Mr Postman.
It's countdown to the Trade show at the NEC and I'm looking forward to meeting my friends from Spellbinders.
