Masterboard Monday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you a card made with this Masterboard:

 

And yes you have seen it before here but this is a new card and a quick one too!

 

I took one of the pieces cut earlier to fit a 6" x 6" card blank.

 

And a white square card slightly smaller.

With this I die cut two sections.

 

As seen below.

 

Stamped a sentiment onto the front and die cut the focal image with shiny satin pink card.

 

Just in case you wondered this is the die I used.

 

 

I added some Stickles Glitter Glue to the centre of the baubles and some matching gems to complete the card.

 

In a way it seemed a shame to cover the Masterboard but at least you can see through the die cut shapes.

Hope you like it. 

 

 I would love to hear your comments.

 

I am hoping to use up the rest of this Masterboard soon.

 

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

 

 

Friday Fun Day.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

Now what could these be!

 

You may have heard of Storage4crafts.

 Well that's where these boxes came from.

 

And here we are putting it together.

The construction method is very clever and quite easy too.

 

And here it is complete. It probably took longer to get rid of the boxes than to put the cupboard together though I haven't put the shelves in yet. It takes 'Very Useful Boxes' if you know what they are.

I also had a lovely day out at The Stamp Magic Craft Show at Doncaster on Sunday.

Just a quick look as most of you have seen these already.

 

Show pics.

The Hobby Art Stand.

 Which Craft.

 Wonky Tonk Stamps

 

Just a couple that I thought you might like though to be honest I was enjoying myself too much to get round to many more photos.

 

I like it here as the room is quite big and there's plenty of light unlike some of the shows which sometimes seem a bit dull.

 

The rest of the week I have spent going backwards and forwards to visit parents.

Mum is doing well and starting to walk around with a frame and dad is more settled and seems to have made friends with a lady there so mum had better hurry up and get better or dad might decide he likes being in the home after all Lol!

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

 

 If you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW # 489 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
Here we are for another Wednesday at the Workdesk. 
I am here again to show you:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

 

Only actually this was Sunday when I got back from the show at The Doncaster  Dome before I put everything away.

CHAOS! I here you say.

Well you are right and it's worse than this but I'm not showing you until I get my new cupboard up and running there is stuff all over the place.

 

AALL stamps and stencils, so love these.

 

New brush pens which I've had my eye on for a while. Hobby Art and Wonky Tonk stamps. Bits and Bobs from Inkilicious and some Paper Artsy stencils too.

 

You can just see some Stampendous stamps and Stickles glitter glue too.

 

Gosh I am a bad girl and there's the NEC to come yet!

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

Crafty Cardmakers challenge 220 # Fairies or other Mythical Creatures.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Hi! back again to tell you that it's time for another challenge over
at Crafty Cardmakers.

  Jackie is hosting today and our challenge is  to include Fairies or other Mythical creatures in your project. 

As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be cards, as long as it meets the challenge. 

Hope you will join in.
And here is my project for the challenge:

 

The background was made using a piece of watercolour paper coloured with Distress Oxides left over from making an earlier Masterboard.

Lavinia Stamps Die.

 

I kept the outer section, trimmed it and curved the corners.

 

I decided to remove some of the detail so that the stamp would show through better.

This was also by Lavinia Stamps as were the sentiments used along the outside edge.

 

The centre die was edged with green Oxide and everything layered over blue card and the black card blank.

 

I finished this with a little Stickles glitter glue in the windows and the fairy wings.

I hope you will pop over to see what the rest of the DT have been up to and maybe join in the challenge.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with too.

 Happy crafty card making.

Friday Fun Day With Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

I still have loads of photographs from the Steampunk festival but giving you a little rest today as I have a few other photographs which might be of interest.

Last Sunday I went to Newark to a Craft Show.

I am sure you will agree this is gorgeous.

 

These ladies were doing a workshop and having fun.

 

And of course shopping too.

 

In the park we found this which is one of the pebbles someone has hidden.

I'm sure you'll agree, it's a dogs life Lol!

 

 How comfy are they!

 

Hope you can pick this out.

It's a little frog in the pond that I disturbed when I was clearing out some plants. Don't think he was impressed!

 

 My outdoor Cacti have done well this year with all the lovely weather we've had.

 

And finally here is Maisie giving you all the look.

I just wonder what is going through her head.

 

So that's your lot really.

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

 

 And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for

WOYWW # 488 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
Here we are for another Wednesday at the Workdesk. 
I am here again to show you:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

 

I have set the desk so that you could see some of the new stash I bought at Newark on Sunday.

Just guessed you might like to see it.

 

There were some great offers so obviously you have to make the most of it.

 

Some of you may well have seen this card earlier in the week as it was part of my Masterboard Monday post which is here if you're interested.

 

These dies are so nice and reduced in price too which makes them even better.

 

I'm still visiting mum and dad most days but hope to get round again as I managed last week to visit you all.

They have moved her to a convalescent home which unfortunately is even further away so the travelling takes longer but she is improving and that's the main thing.

My only fear Lol! is that she is enjoying it too much being looked after and may not want to go home. Apparently on Sunday they had an Elvis impersonator singing, maybe I should move in there too!

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to as soon as I get back tonight.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,
