Hexagon Card

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card is from the Fancy Nesting Hexagon dies by Card Making Magic and they are all available at Craft Stash

I have used Tonic Nuvo Drops to add the embellishments to it and of course it wouldn't be me with the odd flower or two .... well OK then maybe three or five

The card opens up so that you can add your sentiment or verse to the inside and it will stand unaided.

Or you could make the Easel Card Stand for it to make it extra special

It makes such an unusual focal point and I really like this card. Plus I would be very happy to get a card like this for my birthday

More tomorrow ...

Card & Gift Winner ...

Hi Everybody,

Late today but no excuse really ... part for the fact that I have a new vacuum cleaner and I have been playing with it. Ruby is fascinated with it because it has headlights on the front to light under dark areas. She thinks it's great fun to chase them around.

Anyway enough of that lets move onto the draw. The name chosen to win the Summertime scenes from yesterday is ....

Ann Topp

so would you send your postal address please to

christina@card-making-magic.com

and they will be on their way to you straight away.

Please let me know that you have them safely and I hope that you will like them

Creative Stamping 68 Furry Friends + Hello Spot

Hi Everybody,

Two stamp sets are the gift with this months Creative Stamping and they are domestic animals we keep as pets

I of course have used my Cocker Spaniel Ruby as my inspiration and tried hard to colour the image to suit her colouring

It is really a fun set to have and it will be in the shops on the 28th Feb so keep a look out for it. 

There are some cute images on there and lots of occasions are covered.

There is even a a stamp to say "So Sorry on the loss of  Your Pet"

On the cards with five dogs I used foam pads to add them at different heights but 

Princess Ruby of course is in the chair.  

The other items are also in the  A4 stamp set and I also added them in as  a fun element to the design.

The other stamps set is Hello Spot and for me it is more appropriate for children but see what you think when you get it and have fun playing with both of  them

Baby Christening card

Hi Everybody,

This card was featured in a magazine article last year and I was really pleased with the end result.

It was done with the Card Making Magic Collection dies especially for Babies brought out in 2017/18

I used the Nesting Rectangles to create the card base and then embossed it in the Basket Weave folder

The Nesting Ovals gave me the topper shape and the Baby Occasion dies provided the rest.

So with very little work from me I have a pretty card ready to send. Just die cutting and a little bit of colouring and the card was done
