SNIPPETS MALE BIRTHDAY CARD


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Popped on this evening to post a card I made for my BIL's Birthday today, out of Snippets from when I made my Twofer cards last month.
I was quite pleased how this turned out, and all the front of the card was using Snippets. 



This is a 7"x7" size card.
The papers are from Trimcraft, and are 6"x6" in size.
As I stated the front is made completely from Snippets , and the inside was from new papers.
I will be joining my friends at the Snippets Playground with this.

I will be back tomorrow with my DT card for the new MAWTT Challenge.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I love to read every wonderful comment that you make.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE NO 117....TWOFER CHALLENGE NO 13 ...STARS


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

I really enjoyed my new singing group it's small but very friendly, and we hope more people will join us soon.

I was inspired by Mrs A's
post in which she posted some more inspiration for the Butterfly Challenge, and this gave me an idea for another card for the challenge.
I also have made a second card so I can join in the TWOFER CHALLENGE NO 13 over at Darnell's.
The Male Birthday Card was inspired by a card made by my friend Christine HERE

So here is what I made.





  These are 6"x6" in size.
I used lots of the Snippets left over from my last card for the Butterfly one, and no Snippets on the second one.
I think I have used all 7 elements yet again for the Butterfly one.





Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really love to read your wonderful comments.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

MOTORBIKE CARD

Hi and welcome to my blog all my craft loving
friends, and visitors.
Thank you for your really great comments on my 
last card.
I very much appreciate your time and visit.

Well tomorrow is Friday and this week has been 
eventful to say the least.
On Tuesday I had to call an ambulance for my 
DH as he was in so much pain.
He spent 24 hours in hospital, there and they did some tests, but could not find the cause.
He is fine now, and hoping it won't come back.

Today I have a card made for my Sons Birthday.
Now he rides a motorbike and has done some
motorbike training with Kent Police.
He also loves his bicycle and thinks nothing of
going out on a 50 mile cycle on a Sunday morning.
He also does spinning at the gym when he's not 
out of the country with his work
I am not happy with how this one turned out.
The distress inking doesn't seem right somehow.
See what you think.

CLICK TO ENLARGE.

Now the inside.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
I have used Jolly Nation decoupage and papers,
I bought years ago .
I distress inked the papers and card with a 
mixture of Fire Brick, Peacock Feathers, and 
Faded Jeans.
Nearly forgot that I used some of my snippets 
for the die cuts so this means I can enter the 
Pixies Playground challenge.

Thank you again for your kind visit.
I do hope these nasty floods are not affecting
any of you lovely people, because there is more 
horrible weather on the way so they say.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following 
challenges.

BARBECUE MAN

Hello dear blog friends and visitors.
I am so sorry I have been away for such a long time.
I needed to catch up on my housework that went all haywire over 
the past few weeks.
I also had to go back to Wales as I had booked to go to the NEC
Stitch and Craft Show with my sister who lives there.
I bought some lovely goodies while I was there.
We visited on the Sunday and as you all may know the weather
was not very kind to us.
I really enjoyed the day despite the weather as it was my first
visit to one of these shows, I do hope it won't be my last as I 
spent far tooooooooo much money as you do. lol.

THANK YOU for all your wonderful wishes and comments.
I very much appreciate every one that you make.
I am still suffering with this problem I have got in the top of my
spine. The pain has now gone but I'm left with a great deal of
numbness in my left finger tips. Luckily it doesn't affect my 
crafting only my typing, good job I don't do that for a living. lol.
I know some of you might think this is carpel tunnel syndrome,
but I had that op 5 years ago.
Well that's enough of my probs there are peeps a lot worse off
than me.

Today I have a card I made for my daughter's partner.
As soon as I saw this image I knew it was for him as we call
him the king of barbecues, as he make such good food for it.

Click to enlarge.

Now the inside.



The digi image was a Mo Manning one coloured in with 
Promarkers, Flexmarkers, and Tria Markers.
The papers used were a combination of Kaisercraft, Dovecraft,
and Papermania.
I used the Grand Scolloped Squares Die, Di-namics Rounded
Banners Die, Di-namics Stars Die, Di-namics Corner Die and
the Grand Square Die.

Thank you again for your visit and patience with my blog.
I do hope you are all keeping well, with this nasty cold weather
we have been having.
I now need a mortgage to pay my electric bill as I am all 
electric. lol.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

LITTLE FIREMAN

Good morning dear blog friends and visitors.
Thank you for all your wonderful comments and good wishes.

Some sad news my Dad passed away on the 28th of February.
Thank you for all your wonderful and kind thoughts and messages
left on my blog before I went away.

My card today is one I have just made for my brother in law.
He used to be a fireman in the RAF and also a part time fireman.
So I thought this would be the right image for him.

Click to enlarge.


Now the inside.



I have used a freebie image off the internet and coloured it in 
with Promarkers.
The navy papers are Kaisercraft and the yellow papers are from
my local craft shop, and they didn't have a name on them.
I have used Di-namics Corner Die, Di-namics Rounded Banner
Die, and Di-namics Stars Die.
Thank you again for your visit.
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
