Vintage Pearl now available from Hunkydory!

I loved playing with the New Vintage Pearl collection from Hunkydory on Saturday, its now availabe from Inspirations and Cardcraft Plus, yay!

Here is a new card from Saturday using a folding technique.

I used some Mother of Pearl card, double sided paper, rainbow shimmer mirri, a bit of lace, and the decoupage for a topper (saved the topper for another project!)

Apologies for the photo quality!

An easy sketch card.

This sketch is for the challenge at Tuesday Morning Sketches, the sponsor is Sassy Studio Designs and i have used Christmas Present from Sassy- she's not just for Christmas see!

I coloured using PM's and  Prisma pencils.  The paper is from Jesse Edwards range.  The edge punch is an EK Success and the doily die is from Die-namics.

Those cute kids again, AND A CANDY REMINDER!

I really need to use up some of the images i have coloured in, so i made a start today.  This is using the cute kids stamp from Lili of the Valley.

I coloured with Promarkers, the punch is a Martha Stewart, Die cut is a Nestability label.

I made the rose using 4 punched flowers. I outlined the image with clear glitter but its not shown up in pics very well.

Thanks for looking.

So who has got my cards, Postman Pat or his black & white cat?

Yep im still sulking with the postie! I didnt manage a full batch of Clarity cards for this months TV show anyway because i didnt organise myself effectively, so it was so much more important that the ones i did get done arrived on time.

So, here are the lessons learned this week

1. Manage my time better next month, use your diary - dipstick!!

2. Dont trust Postman Pat and his guaranteed delivery service, Jess the cat could do better!!!

All stamps are available here at the Clarity shop.

This is done using a variation on the Black Magic technique. The subtle background is done by stamping with versamark and just drying with a heatgun.

White card is pearlised.

Acetate has been stamped with versamark and clear embossed.

Looks nicer in the flesh, the sun kept shining/glaring when i tried to photograph.

Thanks for looking!

Royal Mail have got my TV Clarity cards!!!!

I am soooooooooo annoyed!!!!! I posted some Clarity samples direct to Create & Craft so they would be there on time for Barbara because everything has been crazy this month with kids being off school, work, pick of the week & my tv debut, tons of bank holidays etc. Anyway, i paid a shedload of money for guaranteed Saturday delivery and guess what- according to the track an item page on royal mails website my package is being held for delivery on Monday!!!!!

So i better show some on here instead.

Will show you some more later, i may or may not be calmer by then! Deep breaths Maria.
