Hello Again

Hi, I'm back after a very long break, no excuses but lots of good reasons like, having a new kitchen, new bath and shower, redecorating the stairs, living room and conservatory. The latter of which overlapped with having an operation on my right hand for Carpel Tunnel, then it was Christmas and New Year and then back to work (yuk). 

Finally though I've managed to get back into making some cards.  I got a full set of Copic Ciao's for Christmas (OMG - I'm so happy) so have started having a little play and practice to try and improve my colouring techniques.

I'm going to put on a few cards that I've made over the last few weeks but there will be no details about them as I was only playing and practicing using both my Copics and Promarkers.  I didn't take of note of the colours or papers I was using - soz.

Anyway here goes I hope you like them.


You'll notice that one is not a card but a canvas, this was an experiment just to see how it would work, and as it wasn't a total disaster my son used it as birthday gift for his teacher.

Hopefully you'll see more regular posts again from now on.

Lots of Luv

It's been so long!!!

First things first, sorry for not being on here for so long, not been too good health wise which has made me extremely tired so PC use has been severely limited (been sleeping instead, lol)

Anyway, I go for my medication tomorrow so hopefully will start to feel more like my normal self again and will have the chance to post more regularly.

I have managed to make a few cards while I've been away from Blogland so I'll let you have a quick lookysee but there won't be any detail added as I made them so long ago I can't remember the nitty gritty now, but I'm sure you'll all get the idea.

 

Hope you like what you've seen.

I am going to post some quite old photos soon of cards I made before I started my blog.  Again with those there won't be any detail but just want to show what I've done in the past.

See you soon

Take Care

Luv

Joy Fold Cards

I was playing the other day and decided to try making a joy fold card as suggested on the Sugar Nellie Group on Facebook.  I wasn't organised enough to enter these for the Facebook Challenge, lets see if I can manage to do an easel card to fit this weeks!

This is my first one following the sizes in the tutorial. I used up the scraps of paper left over from my daughter's birthday card from the Papermania Love Colossal Paper Pack, very eco friendly.  My printer was out of action while I waited for my new ink cartridges to arrive so had to resort to some peel offs for the word Aunt.

Then I made up my own size that would fit in a C5 envelope.  The papers were from the Papermania Flowery Colossal Paper Pack.

 

Finally I made one that opened the other way (up and down) but still big enough to fit in a C5 envelope.

At least my printer cartridges have arrived and I can go back to printing my sentiments that I don't have a stamp for.

Hope you like them.

Take care and lots of luv
