MojoMonday 336 AND news :)

Hey everyone! 

I hope you've had an amazing week, sorry I've not been around much! I've been here, there and everywhere. First I'll tell you all my news! As you all know I've been try to see if I have a place in the crafting market and it seems I do! I've sold my first card on etsy and it's just been sent off to its new owner today! I've never been happier! I was dancing around the room and even ran down to my parents! Since then I have sold another, both Mother's Day cards.

Now I've made you all happy and warm inside, who would like to see a card? Here's the MojoMonday sketch we had this week, I knew what I would do as soon as I saw it! 

I had a lovely circle card topper from HunkyDory Crafts that was perfect for this card! So of course with Mothers Day coming up, another Mother's Day card was created. Include ribbon, twine and flowers and there you go! Here it is.

MojoMoney sketch #335

Hey everyone! I've got a few posts to do today so sorry if you have an abundance of them! The first is my MojoMonday sketch. I can't believe we're on sketch #335 already! I decided to switch this sketch around a little and even use a different size card base.
Here is the original sketch.

I've added a doily and moved the second square to the bottom right hand corner to add balance. Anyways here you go!

New technique!

Hey everyone!

I decided seen as I was a little ill and busy this last weekend that I would make a few cards today. As of the moment I've only made one so sorry but this post will only have one card! Can you forgive me ;)

 Anyways I've been researching on Pinterest (CraftinEm if you want to follow me) about new techniques  to make my cards 10 times better! Then I found this! First I'll show you my card and then tell you about it!

                               

I found a video and a few card tutorials on how to make coloured and embossed background. So biting the bullet I tried it. First ink your embossing folder (the side which is not raised). Then press your card or paper in your embossing machine/die cutter and watch the magic happen! You will come out with a beautifully coloured and embossed piece of paper. Depending on the colour of ink you decide to use you can create a vintage background or a vibrant background. 

I decided to add lace and a beautiful red flower to make a gorgeous vintage card for when your thinking of someone.

Mother's Day making!

Hope Hey all,

It's been a funny few days here in my household! I've been here, there and everywhere! However I am excited to tell you I am currently writing this post from my new iPad! I decided to bite the bullet and use my savings! This way I can write to you all and upload to etsy whenever I like! However today's post is not for me to ramble on about my new electronics but for my new Mother's Day makes. I'll show them in order of made and of course, they'll be up tomorrow on etsy. Enjoy!

Just a little one

Hey all!

I'm not exactly well at the moment, so this will just be a short show and tell from me. I made these two cards with the idea of making them Mother's Day themed, but they turned out different. You could use them for anything. Personally I loved using these decopatch cake themed sets from Papermania. I may have to check out more of their items!

See you all tomorrow!

Designing sets

Hey all!

Today I thought I'd do something a little different and start my Mother's Day collections. I also thought I'd make a set. This would be perfect if you've bought your mother a present and wanted to add a little touch. This set was inspired by a magazine set, I just had to put my spin on it.

EDIT: Now up on etsy!
