1920's Glamour Cards from Inspire Creationz



Hope you enjoyed a crafting weekend?  

We are at the Greenacres Summer Fair on Saturday so needed a number of cards to showcase our Classes. We are both busy making lots of samples this week made with different techniques.  The cards above have been made with two different stamps and different colour combinations - both are quick and simple makes.

If you are passing Greenacres in Leicester on Saturday why not pop in and say hello....

Happy Crafting

I have been crafting all my life but my passion for cardmaking started a few years back & still to this day I love every minute of it!
I love my Promarkers & my Spectrum Noir's which is what brings my images to life and I use on about every card I make, I also love rubber & digital stamping but out of the two I love rubber stamping the most which I have growing stash of these :)
I have recently starting dabbling in others crafts like Art Journalling and Art Canvas's which is an whole new world to me but i am enjoying it as i am learning lots of new techniques etc."

Kaisercraft Scrapbooking Page Created by Guest Designer Sue Chester


We just had to share this fabulous Scrapbook Page created by our talented Guest Designer Sue Chester.  


The Kaisercraft Speciality papers are beautiful and help to show off the photo of her parents perfectly.  Sue complimented the layout with Doilies which had been inked to match the colour scheme.

Simply finished with die cuts, flowers & gems, this is a truly beautiful layout - thank you Sue!

This has given me lots of inspiration so might even make me start scrapbooking again :-)

Happy Crafting
