Card Making Magic Oval Rainbow Card

Hi Everybody,

Today I had some fun with the new A5 Nesting Ovals and created this Rainbow Card which In think would delight children if they got one for their birthday.

Their very own Rainbow and if you added their age it would be doubly delightful.

I didn't have the right coloured card so I used my pens to get the look. I only coloured the outside edges of the card as no one will see the centres.

The little die set with sun and clouds is an old Spellbinders one that I have and I couldn't find it on their website.  But the one I have linked to would still it fit the bill but the sun is a little larger than the one I used.

I hope you enjoy the video ... it's really short so wont take up too much of your evening

More tomorrow ...

Baby Book Card

Hi Everybody,

This pretty project has been filmed to show you how I made it as a really special baby card.

I used the A5 Nesting Ovals to create the pages to my book  and they play really well with older dies from the card making magic range.

All me collections are available with Craft Stash

This project can be dresses p as much as you would like for boys or girls. And it would serve a lot of other occasions too

I used to make this kind of thing with large Spellbinders dies but they were all retired and no longer available. So I think these are an excellent choice for those who like these book type cards

Have fun with it and I promise you it is not difficult or time consuming to make.

Be Kind ....

Hi Everybody,

This is another card sample from the HOCHANDA shows and on this one I have used the Alphabet that is available with Craft Stash

They come a plain letters, as shown,  but there is also a filigree top that can be added to give the letters a Lacey look.

In the background I have used two of the Petunia Wraps and added a Nesting Oval to the top

The silver card is cut with Ornate Nesting Rectangles and the green leaves are from the Rose Flourish Set

I think this is a really pretty card and you could add any word you wanted to the top of your card with the Alphabet Set

It is the  A5 Card & Box  size so quite a large card but of course you can make the box to fit it or turn  the box  into  an envelope if you preferred.

Card & Gift Winner

Hi Everybody,

What a beautiful weekend this is turning out to be. Ruby and I are off on a family picnic later this morning and we are going near the river so that Isabella ... who is now eight ... can go paddling with the dogs and having a lovely time.

Ruby loves swimming and she is sure to find some deeper water where she can do that. Mind you she is only a little Spaniel and so deep for her is not deep for humans. So we need to take towels and water and some food for the dogs as well as ourselves. 

It should be a lot of fun and a gorgeous day out especially welcome after the really busy week I had. 

I hope you managed to join me on Hochanda and see the fabulous dies on offer this time.

And if you bought some then Thank You and I hope you enjoy playing with them. This little card features the  Petunia Wrap   and it is really useful set of four dies.

There are videos on the way but I need the time to edit them and get them added to YouTube so that you can view them and time has been a little scarce this last week and today I am having fun.

But for now the draw for the Card and  Gift from Friday has been done and the name drawn is ...
