Pink!

Ever since the Spellbinders Grand Calibur arrived on my craft desk 

I've realised I'm drawn to pink - raspberry bright pink!  

Today I could not resist these roses - they match perfectly.

I have to say teenage sons do not think a great deal of this shift towards 'pinkness' but I'm loving it!

What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday

Hello everyone - I'm back!  

I haven't taken part in WOYWW for some weeks but believe me my workdesk has been in constant use.  I've been a busy bee creating new projects and even dabbling in making a few craft videos, a pretty flower here and a butterfly card here (thank goodness for teenage sons that have lots of techie know-how!) 

So here is my workdesk, more fabric flower cards being made.

And of course... how could I forget ....spot the cat!!
Here is Darcy making it SO easy.

Have a great week and I hope to stop by and visit lots of desks.

Video - Spellbinders™ Butterfly Card

I've got round to doing another video and this time I'm doing a simple and effective card using Spellbinders™ Butterflies and Labels One SM die templates.

The papers I've used are Jillibean Soup - Blossom Soup and note how the Grand Calibur cuts and embosses all three butterflies in one go - saves so much time!  

Others products: bling from Want2Scrap and adhesive and foam squares from Scrapbook Adhesives. 

This card can be dressed up with sentiment, ribbon and more but I do like the clean simplicity of it.

Happy creating!

Chicken Soup - Recipe 42

Chicken Soup time again!  

I selected the inspirational picture this week - 

I adore floral/Cath Kidston type fabrics and I think this picture is heavenly.  

 Keeping the fabric theme in mind I made a card with a fabric flower, a few posts back I did a little video tutorial on making fabric flowers with Spellbinders die templates.
On this card the flower is made using Rose Creations,

I've also used some stamps from Flourishes.

Hope you feel inspired by pretty flowers too, if so visit Chicken Soup

and join in the creative fun!

Take Note!

A quick post this afternoon to show you a tiny notebook that I made.

This uses the following Spellbinders die templates: Foliage, Rose Creations and Labels Seventeen

I love the summery green colouring.

Hope everyone is having a great Friday!
