Happy Valentines Day

Hi Everybody,

I hope you are having a good day and maybe celebrating with the ones you love.

Perhaps you are going out to dinner this evening with your partner, I know that is what Griff and I would be doing.

The featured card has a matching envelope to it and that has also been stamped with the hearts background.

I used the Love & Marriage die set from Card Making Magic, and the stencil from the same set. Sadly it is no longer on the Craft Stash website.

It is a card I made for Griff many Valentines days ago but for some reason I cannot part with it. I still think it is a pretty card even now years later.

More tomorrow ...

Old and New mix ...

Hi Everybody,

We are all guilty of this and that is buying crafting items , using them just a few times and that putting them in cupboard and forgetting about them.

So today I am sharing a video that uses quite a few older dies and teaming it with the circular sentiments from the new A6 collection.

This card is very easy to create but gives and unusual affect to your backgrounds and gives you yet another way to use those Clever Cuts Offset Background dies.

Use your favourite colours to ink up the card and for mine I used the easy to blend Distress Oxides but you can use any that you have in your own collections.

I really like this look and it is one I will be doing again with other shapes to add to my cards.

More tomorrow ...

Winner

Hi Everybody,

One of my readers left a comment on the blog that she doesn't get the email about the Friday Freebie until late Saturday afternoon. And so because of that information I am going to leave the list open, for entries into the draw, from Friday morning to include all day Saturday and that will give my overseas readers the chance to enter with their comments. This makes it even more important that you leave your FULL NAME along with your comment and that you come back on Sundays to see if your name is chosen as the winner.

This week the name that has been chosen at random is ...

Jenny Cottam

so would you email me your postal address please to

christina@card-making-magic.com

and I will get it posted to your straight away.

Things should be back to normal now and my overseas winners will get their packs soon.

I know that my UK readers have now got their packs.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
