Charity Card making weekend

Today and tomorrow I will be having a marathon card making session for the charity box at work and also to raise money towards me OneSight mission in March when I'm off the Cincinnati. I can't wait super excited. I will post up my makes up later.

Wow after so many months with no posts

Its been I long time since my last post, lots of crafting has been done rest assured, just no time to blog , over the last 4 months I've been busy making pop up invites for Christmas. This is the last batch of 10 having already made 80, they fold flat to go into a C5 envelope. I enjoyed making them with my cricut cutting out the eyewear elements, lots of cutting and scoring , the other 80 I made using Green card with Red, I managed to get lots of glitter everywhere even on the dogs. 

Finally after too many months not crafting or updating my blog I finally made something to upload.

This is just made with a piece of backing card from a paper stack, Matt and layered on blue card and spots and stripes capsules collection paper, the image is a digital one coloured with copics. I CUT each carriage out and stuck along the bottom adding jewels for the chain links. I added my Great Nephew,s name using a free stamp set which I just can't live without at the moment, then just popped his dob on the bottom edge. The whole thing is finished with eyelets and bakers twine ready for hanging.
