Soldiers Generations

Hi everyone,
I have another card to share today!
This one was made for La Pashe


My card features the "Soldiers Generations" sheet from the
I love the two different camouflage papers which are also on the CD


Here's a closer look at the image, featuring soldiers through the ages.
The decoupage sheet is also available as a pre printed 
decoupage sheet or an instant download if you prefer.
I distressed the edges for some added dimension


I made a little map using a page from an old road atlas
& added some card candi & some magic mesh 
(which has been in my stash for years)!


Another little look at my card!

Embossed Hearts Valentine

Hi everyone!
Happy Valentines Day to you all!
The card I have to share with you today, is a little Valentine card!
Well it had to be today didn't it!


This was such a simple card to make & it has been bouncing around
 in my head for absolutely ages! I'm so glad to finally get it out!
I used embossed linen cardstock from Southfield Stationers for the base.


I cut two little hears from some Design Paper that I got in Lidl.
The paper was part of a book & is double sided.
It already had little embossed lines with flecks of glitter in.
I covered the hearts with some clear Versamark ink then 
embossed with clear embossing powder, using my heat gun to melt.
I would have prefered to use UTEE but I don't have any so I 
repeated the process several times until I was happy.
The swirls panel is the linen embossed cs which I originally debossed
 then decided I didn't like it so used the reverse side.


I added my sentiment, which I created on my pc, at the top.
If you're looking for a challenge to play in, the theme over at
 The Crafting Cafe this month is Embossing
Thanks for looking today.
I'm off to start my day with a visit to the dentist.
Wish me luck!

Trunk Love

Evening all!
 So Sorry, this post should have gone live earlier but I forgot to publish!
The card I have to share today is one of the cards I made for the 
Just Inklined Blog Hop
The image I've used is Trunk Love, one of the latest Love/Valentine image
Here is my card


Such a sweet little elephant!
I coloured him up with promarkers, cut him out in a square die & inked.
I matted the image on to some pink CS which I had edged with a
Martha Stewart Heart Border punch.


Here's a closer look at the image.


The papers I used were in my stash!
I've recently managed to find more on a facebook sale so am
happy to use these up!
The little flower was won in a candy draw,
I've had that for ages too!
As you can see in this photo I've also decorated the inside of the card!
Thanks for popping by today!
