Friday Freebie 025

Hi Everybody,

I will be on 

Create & Craft today

 at 9am and 1pm 

and you can view the shows either via your TV or on your PC. 

Click the link ... Create and Craft TV  and go to the TV Schedule button and click.

In the drop down box it will give you a list of dates and show titles.  

You are looking for ...  Grand Calibur Crafting  at the times listed and then you can click the Watch "Live" TV  now  when the show is on

The shows are available for some days after they have gone out live so you may be able to catch some of them later

I have not forgotten to add in my usual Friday Freebie card and so here it is for this week 

This is in a vibrant shade of pink and sure to please all you pink lovers ... but for those who don't like the big bows ... sorrreee this one is huge !!

The organza ribbon tied in a double bow is from Mei Flower

The background is the Tied Together die from JGD Crafts  and it is layered over flowery pink paper

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and into the corsage I have added some of my pearl sprays

The pearls around the frame are from Want2Scrap   and the glitter on the flowers is from Glitter Magic

Now if this is a card you would like to own then leave me a comment at the end of the post and once the names have been drawn the winner will be announced in a blog post.

You will have to give me time to post the card to the winner though as I will be on C&C ... but I am happy to send it to you wherever you.

In the previous days post I have used some of the very newest dies from the Spellbinders 2014 catalog and I have now been back into those pages  and edited them to include links for each of the dies to the Spellbinders website

It will show you what the die sets look like and the intricate detail in each of the templates.  You will need to shop around for availability in your country and for the best price.

More tomorrow ...

New Labels - 42

Hi Everybody,

Labels are always handy to have in your crafting "Stash" as they are so very useful and this is another new addition to Spellbinders

I have used both the plain Labels 42  and the Decorative Accents  that match, and there are also Decorative Elements to further enhance your cards

The card is made from good old Kraft card and white and makes for a very easy on the eye combination

The Kraft card I have used is from AnnaMarie Designs

It has been embossed with the A4 folder from SB called Garden Lattice

I have added in a flourish from   Want2Scrap  along the right hand side in the Creme Caramel color.

But the main difference between these photos is obviously the flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

And what a change there is by adding just five flowers and three leaves to the mix.

Simply arranging them along the side of the sentiment has added so much more to the look and I have sparkled them up with fine glitter from Glitter Magic

I liked the first one ...  but the autumn colors of the flowers on the second photo make it so much more.

Just a little reminder that I will be on Create and Craft earlier than originally stated ... I am now there at 9am  and 1pm tomorrow on the Grand Calibur Crafting shows ... hope you can join me !! 

More tomorrow ...

Create and Craft News ....

Hi Everybody,

When I started this adventure with Spellbinders and Create and Craft TV I was warned that change was on going all the time and to be prepared for it  ...  and that simply was the drawback  of "Live" TV

So I have now been asked to do two extra shows and  I will  be on your screens on ....

 Friday 12th September at 9am and 1pm 

The rest of my schedule remains the same with the "workshop" at JGD Crafts and then back to C&C for more shows on Sunday and Monday.

I hope you will be around to view the show on Friday as well ... so now got to go and pack to leave a day earlier

More tomorrow ....

Trendy and Simple ...

Hi Everybody,

Here is another card made from the new Spellbinders for this year and it was so easy to put together ... perfect for that last minute card.

It is the Trendy and Simple Range and this is the Contemporary Strip teamed with the Sentiments Three.

The embossing folder is the same as yesterday and with the addition of some ribbon and dotted with pearls from Want2Scrap   the card is done.

The lovely pale green card is from the Adorable Scorable colors and it is so fresh and the beauty of this card  is that it does not crack when it is scored

So no flowers on this card but it would suit any occasion and was quick and easy.

Have an evening just die cutting and then you will always have some ready and waiting to be used whenever someone says ..
 "Can you make me a card ... er now ???"

I have linked to the dies on the Spellbinders website ... but they are very very new and this is to give you a taster ... shop around fore the best price

More tomorrow ...

Spellbinders 2014 ...

Hi Everybody,

The card I am showing you today is from the Spellbinders 2014 catalog and I have linked to the Spellbinders website to show you photos of the dies

They are to show you what you will get in the set and this one is beautiful ... shop around for the best price in your country

The background is an embossing folder called Diamond Fleur De Lys   and it is very deep with a lovely edge to it.

The large top panel is Fleur De Elegance and there are three dies in the set ... all pictured.

I have teamed it up with yellow ribbon and some pretty yellow flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

Now yellow is not one of my go to colors but I think this card turned out just fine

The card is the hinged card style and has been lined to match the front.

Hope you like ...

More tomorrow ...
