Well.....the year so far....craft wise has been more prolific than it has been for a while. Due to a change in positions at work, I find that I now have more time for crafting, which is great. It did take me a little while to find my creative side again, and I have been experimenting with some products that are either retired or from *gasp* other companies. But I thought I'd give you a quick snippet of creations from my year so far.....
Starting with Christmas..... A good friend found some Hershey's nuggets and kisses and together we found this cute little Christmas tree online. I created these red and silver ones for the Christmas Day table.....
A childhood friend had a significant birthday in January, so I created this card for her to celebrate the milestone. I used Blendabilities (discontinued now *insert sad face) and Night of Navy and Coastal Cabana cardstock. I stamped the images from I Like You hostess set in Versamark and then embossed with white embossing powder.
A work colleague had her birthday in March, so I created a set of cards from the SU! Painted Blooms DSP, available in the Occasions Catalogue.
In April, one of the mum's from school had her fourth baby, at last a girl after 3 boys. The sentiment circle is from A Fitting Occasion and the giraffe and congratulations is from Zoo Babies.
A close up of the sentiment circle to show the split heart detail, taken from the background paper.
Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed this quick snapshot of my year so far.....
Happy Stamping.....Manda xxx
