Tim holtz June tag

I made my Tim holtz tag today. Yes, that is good of me as I normal have to rush at the end of the month to squeeze it in. 

I just love it. As we all know we love Tim, he does use some bland colours but no, not today. He is in the spring mood. And so was I. 

I had his star stencil which I have not used yet so was happy to play around with it. I loved how it turned out. I did not have his butterfly stamp and die set but I do have a sizzix set to use instead.

I use this a lot as the butterflies are stunning and I am no good at cutting them out, so am happy to use the same dies in the set. 

I used a different stamp to his. And I could not bring myself to put cogs on the tag as Tim had done as I don't think it really fits on the tag, so I had recently made some quilling flowers so added them instead. I love the bow he made. Will have to remerber that one. I also added some bling to the butterfly bodies

I think its delightful

Happy crafting!

Disney Buzz card

My great nephew was 4 yesterday so made him this card. 

He loves Toy Story, so I used my Cricut and made this card for him with the Disney Toy Story cartridge. 

I used a plain white card layered blue and purple card stock and cut out the Buzz figure. I though this was going to be a quick card but it seemed to take forever to put together.

He absolutely loved this card so that made me happy. 

Happy crafting 

Tims May tag

I finished my tag in May, this was a close one. love how this tag turned out, I used all my favourite thing on here. 

I used all the things that meant a lot to me. I adore buttons and flowers so had to put them on here. Owls, of course. And Disney Mickey key, well, that was a given. I collect things with hearts on so added the bling heart. The lollypop speaks for itself. And found this little fairy door the other day and is was so cute I had to add it. This is my favourite tag so far. 

Here are all my tags this year so far. I put them on my cupboard door in my craft room.

Happy Crafting. 

Letter holder

I have not done some crating in a while. We have had some beautiful weather so we have been reinventing our back garden so most of my time has been on that. But I now need some crafting to bring me back to life, lol

My neighbour give me this letter holder as she did not want it anymore, it was a plain cream colour, so I had to change that. I have been collecting used postage stamps for a while just to use in my crafting, so thought it would looks nice down the side. I attached them with pva glue and then sealed them. I used decoupage paper on the front and used some on the inside which says 'I love you' (So cute). Finally added some flower lace to give it a bit of dimension.

And here it is in use, I think it looks so pretty. 

I fell a bit more human now I have done some crafting. 

Heart button canvas

Here is my latest creation.'

I had some old canvass in my bathroom that had seen better days, so was throwing them out. Then I had a brainwave, so decided to revamp them. So I painted one grey and, as my bathroom has an orange and white theme, I decidef to add a button heart. I just hot glued them in place. The other canvas I have planned to use my prima doll stamps. I'll be sure to show you all the end result.

Hope you have a nice weekend and happy crafting!

Easter basket

Look what I made for my girls for Easter. 

I made one for both my girls and they were both very happy with it. I just got a new basket with a liner. And placed a gift and some Easter goodies inside. 

Happy Easter!

New arrival

My nephew and niece had a new arrival on Friday. Harley was born weighing 9lb 6, the heavyweight. So I was busy buying baby clothes (I just love that), so I made them this card. 

I used my Marianne design dies. I love them, they're so cute, and I love the way you get the stamps and dies in the set. I coloured the baby image using my new water soluble wax pastels I found at Hobby Craft, and I must say I am in love with them 

I am going to play with them some more on my Prima Doll stamps soon.  

Happy crafting :)
