Double Twisted Easel Card

OK - showing off now lol  - Trial run - so excuse the garish card stock lol  also designed and cut on robo

Twisted Easel

Woohoo - or so I thought when I found a twisted easel template on UKS -  BUT it was in Studio format.  So I decided that now was the time to really get my act together and design stuff myself in GSD format - and this was the result .  I made it up quickly to see that it worked ok - there are various mats and 'stops' for it

Will maybe attempt a double twisted one in the morning!

Using up robo cuts :)

A couple of cards using some 'bits' I had cut

The top one is using a lacy circle mat by Silene I believe from UKS and the tulip circles from Angela Burke from CUP  onto a Kanban card blank I had and a sentiment from a kanban sheet which just blended in with it all

the 2nd one is on a lovely card blank - the Venetian Mask and mat design by Clive Coulter and bought from CUP - the images can be resized which is an added bonus

My kind of site!

On my meanderings through t'internet I found this FABBY site -  http://www.favecrafts.com/   the ideas are amazing - and the results outstanding - check it out!

Something different

I had a multitude of gorgeous Flora Doodles and thought - you're a long time dead and can't take them with you - so I have been using them - BOY - have I been using them!  

And THIS is the result -

The colours are more vibrant IRL

Some More CUP

This is a fairy theatre fold scallop edged card designed by Jean Gordon - really pretty and very ethereal

I just adore this design - the colours are so vibrant and the scallops are perfect for the flower - well done Ann Marie Vaux this is gorgeous.

Stacker mounted onto card and then onto a base card - from Kanban which was 'theatre curtains' and I felt was just perfect with the ruffles on the design

Todays Efforts

another Hello Kitty bracelet and some floral blinging hair grips

Still Alive and Kicking....

--- but been a tad under the weather - or it could be meds needing balanced.  Anyhooooo - I havent been slacking - got my act together and have printed off some CUP downloads that I have been buying over the last wee while.  Really pleased with the results

oooh pretty things!

We nipped over to Country Baskets this afternoon - not all that much compared to previous visits, but still luvverly none the less. Somehow or other we ended up buying some things with cupcakes on them - hmmmm I wonder who they are for lol

and these - ooooh I DO love these

Twisted Rope Bracelets

Beads bought in pound shop as well - 10 bottles of seeds beads in various colours and a reel of 'thread' - which I didnt use lol - I prefer using NYMO.  I did buy several sets of these beads , made up the ropes this last week or so and because my findings arrived today have sat watching TV finishing them off.  Pretty good value - 2 bottles make 3 bracelets!

The first two fully finished - have sort of lost count how many I actually made lol
