WOYWW - 21st July

I'm late again ;-)

Have been busy with some more CUP cards - they are such a pleasure to work with.

Here are some close-ups of some of the cards I have made this week.

here is my favourite!

Birthday wishes - Male Birthday card

I struggle with male cards (just like most cardmakers I know ;-) )

I came across these great stickers from BlueEdge Crafts and knew they would be perfect for my friend's birthday card.

Sticker image has been stuck on acetate and hand cut around the edges, mounted with 3D tape onto a black square, which is then layered on a white square, then layered on another black square.  All squares were cut using the Cuttlebug and Spellbinder dies.

Birthday Party Placecards, Christmas & Anniversary cards

I made up some more Crafts U Print items this week.

I just the love the shaped clown cards and decided to do something different with them and make up some placecards for a birthday party ;-)

I printed two files on one A4 sheet (clowns stand 5"/12cm), cut out and layered hands, collar, nose & hat.  Placed a gem on flower and made up a name tag and placed it underneath the top layer of the hands.

then I made my first Christmas Card for the year

File was printed on A4 cardstock, cut out & layered, then highlighted with kindy glitz.  My hands were getting sore with the cutting, so I tried another experiment and used the CraftROBO to cut out the layers. 

Topper was placed on a gloss card.

I then tried out one of the new teardrop shaped cards

This file was printed on white cardstock and as I was putting it together, I decided to reprint the front panel onto pearl cardstock and then layered the front flower.  Looking at it now, I think I should have placed the 'pearl 30' sticker on the front and put the hearts in the centre panel, where there is room to sign the card.

WOYWW - 7th July 2010

hi everyone,

I haven't participated much over the last month or so, but have visited a few of you and left comments when I could.

this was my workdesk on Wednesday

I have been working on some more CraftsUprint cards - I am enjoying myself with these! ;-)

I have also been doing some sewing - here is a tease

will post a pic on my sewing blog  once I have finished

Fun with CraftsUprint!

I have known about the http://www.craftsuprint.com/ site for a while now, but until recently, have not done anything with their products.  That all changed this last two weeks.

I was taken with some of the clown files they had on offer - so here are some of my creations.

The response was very quick as soon as payment was confirmed via Paypal, the files were ready.  Downloading went without a hitch. 

All the elements required to layer the card are included.   In both of these cards, they were printed on white textured cardstock and highlighted with Kindy Glitz and Dimensional Magic.

The clown cards can be found HERE 

This card is a 'wobble' card - you just give it a little push and it wobbles!  ;-) 

I will get a better photo of this card when the sun comes out and stays out  LOL
