Hello lovelies,

Today is my turn to post over at the fabulous

STUDIO 12 AT POLKADOODLES BLOG

I have made a Christmas card using a sweet gingerbread character from the

STUDIO 12 PICKNIX COLLECTION 2 - GINGERBREAD TWIST

I absolutely love this cd, so many gorgeous, scrummy images to use and lots of lush backing papers and digis too!

I wanted to give my card a distressed feel so I tore the edges and inked with Distress Inks....

I love the gingerbread characters!

Smashing Christmas ........

Hello lovelies, it's me again lol with something that I have been so excited to show you all! I have used the new Studio 12 Gingerbread Twist CD Picknix Collection for my project. This project was my post on the Studio 12 at Polkadoodles Blog from Tuesday.

I decided to make something different, now as you probably already know Smash books are popular at the moment. I wanted to create my own version from scratch and make it a Christmas Theme using lots of the elements from the cd and also adding my own twists like punched Christmas trees, netting, sewing and various other elements I have added which you will see as you scroll through my pictures. I got my sewing machine out again to add some stitching to the back and front covers, this is becoming a regular occurance with my machine!

What have I used for my Smash book you might ask...10 C5 envelopes, sealed them, then guillotined a piece off each edge,covered them with decorative paper and stuck them together with double sided tape, the open edges created the pockets for my lists that I have added. I bound the pages together like a book using my Bind It Machine.

So without further ado, let me introduce you to a..........................

SMASHING CHRISTMAS.............

I loved making this and I think this shows just how creative you can be with a few envelopes too!

Thank you for taking the time to follow my projects and for all your lovely comments too,

have fun and happy crafting,

lots of love

My Studio 12 post for today - A Piece Of Cake...

Hello my lovelies!

Well today is my turn to post over at the

Studio 12 Blog

I like to think today is a little bit special as it is my birthday! LOL

With this in mind, I would like to share my cake with you all that I have made. It is slightly different though than your usual birthday cake....I have made this one using the Studio 12 Picknix Collection

I love this cake and could'nt resist adding a touch of pink!LOL

The cake stand it is on was my Grandma's and the china tea set was a gift on my wedding day from my Dad, he brought it home from Hong Kong when he served in the Royal Navy. I think it is over 60 years old and he bought it for when he had a daughter to give her on her wedding day. I treasure this tea set and it sits in my cabinet where I can see it all the time!

A piece of cake anyone.....to see the full details of how I made this cake hop over to the

STUDIO 12 BLOG

Enjoy and thanks for stopping by and sharing in my birthday celebration!

Have fun and happy crafting,

Today's Post at Studio 12....

Hello lovelies,

Today is my turn to post over at

Studio 12

I wanted to show you a simple project, but a very useful one too!

I have made an embellishment caddy using cotton bud holder tubs.

I want to show you how I made it using the Studio 12 Picknix Collection

Here's how I did it.....

Start with two empty cotton bud tubs and one lid...

Cover them with your chosen papers from the cd...

Add pearl trim and glue the three pots together. Leave to dry...

Print bows out to size, cut out and glue these onto the rims of the pots along with some flowers, alternating them as shown...

Finally, fill the pots with your chosen embellishments...

These pots are great to save as you can make pen pots from them too. So remember next time you have an empty cotton bud pot..don't throw it away!

My embellishment caddy is now sat on my desk looking very pink and pretty!

Hope you like my project for Studio 12, don't forget we have daily projects for you.

Have fun and happy crafting,

lots of love

Studio 12 at Polkadoodles My DT Post.....

Hello lovelies,

It's my turn today to show you a project over on the fabulous

Studio 12 at Polkadoodles Blog

I decided to make something that I used to make a lot, as I am so busy with making cards, my altered art projects and working at the salon I don't have time to swap these days. Artist Trading Cards I have collected many over the years and swapped them with lots of crafty friends over the years. So for my project today I have chosen to make an ATC.

I have used the Studio 12 Picknix Collection to make my atc. I covered the base with backing paper, and using Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink and a negative from a punched out flower I used a blending tool to ink some flowers onto the background and also to ink around the edges. I then printed flowers from the cd to size so they would fit the atc, cut them out and inked the edges then attached them to the atc.

I printed out a butterfly and a sentiment 'flowers feed the soul' I love this, as I love flowers so much. I finished the flowers off by adding liquid pearls and Stickles to the centres.

You will have noticed I have used flowers for a prop for my photo. I absolutely love these, I bought them from Polkadoodles and can't wait to use them on my next project. The flowers are Polkadoodles Bloomers

Don't forget to check the Studio 12 blog daily the design team have lovely projects to show you every day.

Have a great week, have fun and happy crafting,

lots of love

Studio 12 at Polkadoodles.....

Hello lovelies,

Well it's that time of the month where we have our competition post over at

Studio 12

Hop over and take a look at what you could be in with a chance of winning!

For my project this time, I decided to digital craft, and then finish off with hybrid crafting.

I used the Picknix Collection CD and chose the elements I wanted to use. After placing them where I wanted on my layout, I then printed this off and attached to a card blank. I printed off a backing paper and punched out various shaped flowers, then attached these to the card with pearl centres. I wrote on a journalling tag, and then finished with lace.

My project this time has been a bit of an experiment for me, as I took the elements that I wanted to layout digitally into my word programme, I also wanted to play around with all the colours. So, on that note here is the result of my experiment.....
