Birthday Card Quick Make... Glad I Got Organised!

Really quick make this morning as I suddenly realised that I needed to get a card in the post today if it was to arrive on time.  A few weeks ago I couldn't think what to make so I spent the evening stamping sheets of designs that I use most often so they were ready for when I needed them - and I am so glad I did!!!!!!

For this card I layered a design sheet onto orange card and then cut out extra pieces to decoupage up to create a raised effect and really like how this has turned out.

Please pop back soon

Quick Makes Christmas Cards - Time to Use Up Scraps....

Trying to sort my Christmas craft stash and thought I would make these two really quick makes to use up some scraps I had of the silver mesh.  Loving purple & silver  for Christmas cards at the minute and the snowflake punch makes light work of making fab embellishments for cards.

Please pop back soon as lots more cards to share with you - crafting mojo is back and making the most of it ....

Another really quick make!!!!!!! Birthday Card

Afternoon All,  Just wanted to share with you another quick make.  Recently I had a quiet afternoon, so I stamped a number of flower images and made them into toppers ready for when they were needed and can honestly say, good job I did!!!! 

It really helped when this afternoon I realised I need a card in a hurry and didn't need to get all of my craft stash out to make a card before the school run.  Good job as well as most of my craft stash has been packed away to make way for a new kitchen.

I am going to make more toppers now - it's good to always be prepared!!!!

Quick Makes - Why can I Never Find Anything?????

Bank holiday Monday and trying to sort out my craft materials.  I am having a new kitchen and everything has had to be moved out our conservatory to make way for our new project.  So, I needed a card in a hurry and guess what?  Yes, I couldn't find anything to I wanted!!!!!!  Bought lots of new crafting stash recently but could I lay my hands on it - must get more organised!!!!!!!

Struggling at the minute with my crafting mojo and not being able to find anything was the last straw.  But after lots of faffing, here is the quick card I made - really simply but effective - just what I needed.

Off to start clearing out craft stash - might be a while as I hoard everything and a real messy crafter - hope I am not the only one?

Chrismas in Pink Cards - Quick Makes

Christmas is coming and we are attending a few Fairs this year so need a stock of quick make, (but effective), Christmas Cards on standby.

I am not normally a fan of pink but these Cards worked really well with the embellishment.

I am also a converted fan of Stickles Glitter Glue - just prefect for that added sparkle!!!!!

Have a good weekend

P.s. for these cards I have used:

Papermania Mistletoe Paper, Papermania Mistletoe Embellishments, Pink Bazill Card, Dovecraft Snowflake Jumbo Punch, Stickles & Brads

Quick Make Cards....

Quick Makes Required!!!

My two children reminded me that they needed an Xmas card for their teachers and could I make them for Monday Morning!!!

So, I set myself a little challenge..... 1) The cards had to be easy & quick to make & 2) I had to use my craft supply which I had bought but not yet used - Papermania stamps, Spellbinders scalloped circles and Papermania Christmas paper - and here are the results.

Have any readers set themselves a similar challenge?
