New cards, old cards and stash :)







Hey all!

I've had one of those weeks (so far) where I get inspiration at the most random times. I was making a card for a friend and finished it earlier today. Take a look and let me know what you think.




*it seems my comp isnt playing ball at the moment so i will add all the pictures in a later post*


Products I used:



From the Creativity Goody Bag:

Padded Paws diecut decoupage pack, Lee Holland
Padded Paws cardstock stickers, Lee Holland
Padded Paws diecut greetings, Lee Holland
Butterfly Dimension stickers, Papermania
Light blue mosaic gems, Papermania



Other materials:


Green 6x6 Core'dinations (I think it's from the Earth Tones card pack)
White A6 cards, Anita's
White A6 expandable envelopes, Anitas
White Foam pads
Double sided tape, Poundland



The card itself is a simple idea, one that I used from the ideas sheet that comes with the Goody Bag. I'm so glad I didn't chuck it away a while ago. This was all from a Goody Bag from a few months ago.

Well all this had me looking through old cards that I've made over the past couple of years, and thought I'd add them on this post. I look at some of them and think, " That bit is wonky" and "I didn't cut the pieces right there". I showed a couple of pictures to a friend of mine and she was impressed. :)

Some of these I gave to a fellow blogger Leigh, the charity crafter. I'm actually proud of them now. I guess we're all our own worst critics when it comes to our own pieces of art eh?

(I know you're nodding in agreement, you know at least once you've thought this :) )

I hope you like it all. I will add more to my next couple of posts. :)

I like to check out other cardmakers' blogs when I'm lacking inspiration. I have Clare Curd on my friends list on facebook and see her link to her blog via there. Not won any blog candy before so here's hoping

*crosses my fingers*.



Also here's the link to Clare Curds' Blog candy.
