re-stuck christmas cards

Is busy Re-Stucking Christmas cards (still have a bag full), went out for a walk with the beasts on Sunday and found a worthy cause to donate some cards to - they had a card stand in the cafe, none handmade which surprised me - they all looked like the dregs from the bottom of the card box, unloved and not wanted ;(

a few -
 
backing paper from Humphrey's Corner, loved how the blue and silver came together.




 
 
 
all recycled apart from this little chap who couldn't wait for his photo being taken and snuck in the line at the last minute!

bag lady

 
this is card is a 6x6, roughly - I got guillotine happy at one point. Bckground paper, pink paper, striped paper and handbag embellishment are all from 'The Loving Life' collection. Wished I'd pink-inked the edges of the background paper before sticking it down. Everything else craft stash.

After 22 days we now have a new phone line installed. YaY

Normal service can be resumed!!

 
a birthday card I made, using test stamping off cuts and a bit of gold mirrorcard.

 
and an open card I made for a monthly swap, used the poppy stamp from KayCee Designs, blinged it up a bit and added a thoughtful quote from Mark Twain as the insert.

merlin

.... the dragon


 
"autumns's fire burns
slowly along the woods."
 
 

(excuse the stuff in the background, it was were the best light was in the room)

whole card was made from Debbi Moore's Autumn Glow cd, the image is actaully a topper but I snap-shotted it to make it A5, love the colour ways.
Embellishments came from The Fruit Pixie, little gems from stash. Inked round the edges, then hit the glitter, rubbed it off to give it a more tarnished look.

And at last we get to see Anthony Head back on our screens as Uther this Saturday, should be good.

For some reason this looks cream, its actually a very light green.
The tag is from Shabby Chic - Debbi Moore, I glittered around the mannequin with chamelon glitter, you can just about see it in the photo and embellished with buttons and a bow.
