Hello - here is a card I've made for a swap on UKS - for the Chinese Whisper General card swap. I promised I would do a man's card and as I've already said my hands have been real bad lately so I did this one a bot at a time and finally finished it last night - I quite like it. Hope you like it. Papers are Tim Holtz - including the image, inks used are Tim Holtz, Made the card base up from scratch. The other bits I had in my stash. Enjoy :)chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-37841702664400081412016-02-12T12:54:00.001-08:002016-02-12T12:57:23.673-08:00What have I been up to so far this year Hello and here we are already well into the second month of this year - I've done a couple of things - starting off with a postcard swap on UKS - these are my six postcards - took me ages to do them - my hands have been very bad!!

Right everyone's name is on the top corner of the mosaic except mine - not sure what happened there. I must also point out that my original card was made by me at The Stables Card Emporium in Harborough, Lincolnsirechrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-82630829528343950332016-01-10T06:56:00.001-08:002016-01-10T06:56:50.123-08:00<br />

<br />
before Christmas I hosted a swap on UKS called the Chinese Whispers Christmas card swap. the idea was that we each made a card and sent it on via email, we would receive a card through the email and we would work on that idea and then send it on. The beauty of the swap was that it incurred no postal costs, it also gave us some different ideas to try out and we had the cards to use for Christmas - which was a big bonus. I have arranged the cards in a mosaic for each person and I think in each one your card is in the top left hand corner - if it's not I apologise. Some people have made 7 cards some 8 this is due to the fact that someone had to leave partway through to family pressures. Right ladies let's see if this is going to work:<br />

Now that I know Mr O has reached his destination and all is well I can post a photo on here - this is my first ever attempt at Kilt pins - what I had in my head is not what ended up happening - in part mostly due to the size of Mr O - he was much bigger than my pin so had to get a bigger pin and it sort of went from there -<br />
<br />

I didn't measure overall size before I posted him but he is lying on the top of my laptop to provide him with a white background! Along with Mr O there are 2 unicorns, 2 sets of padlocks and keys, an assortment of black beads and an antique bronze kilt pin, chain and jump rings.chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-3854349036665666612013-09-16T12:03:00.001-07:002013-09-16T12:03:23.120-07:00Autumn is here!<br />

A lovely butterfly card - its ever so simple to do and is very effective - it uses washi tape and I've been looking for a use for some of my washi tape.<br />

<br />
I've done a couple of things since I last updated my blog, the first one and my favourite this month is a decorated notebook. This was made for a swap and the lady I was sending to virtually gave me carte blanche to do as I pleased. So I did and using some of my gorgeous Graphic 45 papers I went to town.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqfadxjdYeFtC9Wrh8WOLIof_qPmdPkJFxTrgu_DAAH9x1LS8ZAmQXd-RhELBa_YgjmxtuMJ6T6JCKC3cl1Rsszy3cI3NMqPpfvi7T1B0rsymJWzvFZ4GHFoeDLINR9pTqdp7kIZ2odBwz/s1600/decorated+notebook+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqfadxjdYeFtC9Wrh8WOLIof_qPmdPkJFxTrgu_DAAH9x1LS8ZAmQXd-RhELBa_YgjmxtuMJ6T6JCKC3cl1Rsszy3cI3NMqPpfvi7T1B0rsymJWzvFZ4GHFoeDLINR9pTqdp7kIZ2odBwz/s320/decorated+notebook+4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
This first photo shows the front of the book after I had finished with it - ignore the mess on my table behind it LOL! The original book was a bright cerise affair and by the time it was finished not a hint of pink in sight!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB0Tju7ryI4gcUhbq3gvMZPPku3cSKw2TGdO2F9wPv9wP39NF1zr5DDb_ViS7wthMDZQzM9lTNgYm6w7ssIiflLMc-VDl1_6s3te30GbpLBgbQFOxzS__KgB5xqNJ1SsdJTnQkQYxUF4VU/s1600/decorated+notebook+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB0Tju7ryI4gcUhbq3gvMZPPku3cSKw2TGdO2F9wPv9wP39NF1zr5DDb_ViS7wthMDZQzM9lTNgYm6w7ssIiflLMc-VDl1_6s3te30GbpLBgbQFOxzS__KgB5xqNJ1SsdJTnQkQYxUF4VU/s320/decorated+notebook+3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
This photo shows the inside of the front cover which I lined with Bazzil and then using an off cut from the Graphic 45 papers I made a pocket to hold some little postcard type things. To the right of the picture you can almost see the ribbon and chipboard page marker I put in the book.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvli_TRFmD8xu9cp50BxRvntz4OWofneNkF5TPHyOUbh2VabR3xNLLKNAHDMSmfiqRuL0_k5M9m3g3-OdxzJdA87zIot3zNS6YEg6OchMUMGIM_QFLOElOae7tfZWuljg852hK4u_wYvYV/s1600/decorated+notebook+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvli_TRFmD8xu9cp50BxRvntz4OWofneNkF5TPHyOUbh2VabR3xNLLKNAHDMSmfiqRuL0_k5M9m3g3-OdxzJdA87zIot3zNS6YEg6OchMUMGIM_QFLOElOae7tfZWuljg852hK4u_wYvYV/s320/decorated+notebook+2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
And finally this is the back cover of the book - I covered the inside of this cover with Bazzil same as the front, but there are no pockets this time. I enjoyed doing the book - was so pleased with the end result and the lady I sent it to was over the moon with it as well - calling it elegant:) <br />

And finally for this post - its a wall hanging and my swappee wanted something that showed before she scrapped she used to sew - which I thought was an easy theme - but not so sure now - I hope she likes it!<br />

Hello again and I'm back - I've not really had time to much as we've had visitors but I've still managed to dabble ..............<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The first is another canvas and easel on F1 theme - the first never reached its destination - this one went out in the post this morning and I am keeping everything crossed that it arrives this time LOL<br />
<br />

This is my pride and joy at the moment - its an altered mirror - started at my friend Sue's and I wasn't too sure about it at all as I had gone with a fairly neutral tone and then stuck some bright green paint on and I do mean bright LOL. Then it sat on my mantle piece and I thought go for it so I did - it came out a lot better than I anticipated and nearly got pinched by a certain young lady! The lace came from a lace swap I took part in ages ago - and I love it - just need Bill to put it up on the wall now!!<br />

Well I am entitled to feel old my grand daughter Leonie has just confirmed that she is expecting a daughter on the 18th December - she already has a son Cordell and yes all this really does make me feel old!<br />
<br />
OK enough nattering and onto some of the bits I've been doing since being on here last:<br />

I joined a canvas and easel swap and the theme I was given was Formula 1 - totally outside my comfort zone - but I have done the best I could with a subject I know nothing about!<br />

This is my entry into an Art Journal I am doing - the theme was a bucket list and at the top of mine was to regain my slim figure - as I said in the journal - not much chance of that but I can dream!<br />

This was a postcard I made for a mail art swap - for Cynthia - who like me loves Steampunk, so this was easy to do - the hardest bit was to stop adding to it!<br />

Not sure this picture does this card justice - it's a lovely little card and as it's one layer it will save on postage LOL. Well that's my lot for a now - must point out that these projects were done over a period of time as it takes me ages to achieve anything these days - thanks for looking!chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-78327393318731589282013-07-12T07:20:00.003-07:002013-07-12T07:21:03.689-07:00Tessa being a tart<br />

Here we are again and its another month but what a warm one it is turning out to be! Its lovely being able to have the windows open and the heating off! I've managed to do a little crafting this month - when my health allows and as normal I've not been blogging regularly so I've a few to show you - so here they are in no particular order:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjt2b9k5lUG3meW_B7_yKvYdIGB0mXfoV9lkufCFr-Xv2QvCzF-hffClxF05Fh_n_UKSk9UnzikasCtGCWzUTnjWo-K9XaMPZga9yZmB43adR1khPORrBMjZ2jYpi3WmMqI0KS8p-LOr-T/s1600/Big+flower+card.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjt2b9k5lUG3meW_B7_yKvYdIGB0mXfoV9lkufCFr-Xv2QvCzF-hffClxF05Fh_n_UKSk9UnzikasCtGCWzUTnjWo-K9XaMPZga9yZmB43adR1khPORrBMjZ2jYpi3WmMqI0KS8p-LOr-T/s320/Big+flower+card.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Big flower card - using a doily and a big flower stamp - I love the colour orange and this looks so fresh and summery!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfdwHHnMgg6WHtMbcOoxkW8z9sd7w05BxmC8xvLPMZjmDxgGA1pGnfSQhUKNlpIKRVgu_jNUzFD9-MtRdordkqFuhXQfncwFR5IHHrKhlVCabGQhctcgsRigblX9u5FNqp-fvjwgsdesBq/s1600/masking+tape+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfdwHHnMgg6WHtMbcOoxkW8z9sd7w05BxmC8xvLPMZjmDxgGA1pGnfSQhUKNlpIKRVgu_jNUzFD9-MtRdordkqFuhXQfncwFR5IHHrKhlVCabGQhctcgsRigblX9u5FNqp-fvjwgsdesBq/s320/masking+tape+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
This postcard was made using the masking tape technique for the background and then the penny farthing was stamped on top.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The pink bird card - very simple but again nice fresh colours and they all complement each other.<br />

This is a gorgeous male card - we all have trouble doing them - the background was created by putting ink onto an acrylic block and spraying it with water - then stamping it onto card - you get a different effect each time you use it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Another male card involving clocks - and if you know me you know I love anything to do with clocks - a simple card to do and I love the effect on this one.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Some cards I've made -<br />
The top one is using a painting technique as well as a resist technique.<br />
The next one is using markers on an acrylic block, misting them with water and stamping it onto a piece of card and then using a solid stamp, stamping over the multi coloured background - so easy to do and yet effective.<br />
And finally the bottom one is for my grandson - I am pleased with how it turned out so I hope he likes it.chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-4439843681623738092013-06-23T06:57:00.002-07:002013-06-23T06:57:56.962-07:00Some more bits for June<br />
What a wet month - where has our summer been and gone - I seem to have had a few crafting spurts this month - mixed in with some bad nights and painful days - but its nice when I can craft - so here goes with a few things from June:<br />
<br />

This is for a postcard swap - it has to have a stamped image somewhere on the card and the theme this month was hats!<br />

These are the May cards for a swap on UKS - the theme this month was anything to do with dance, some ribbon and colours of the rainbow. They are all the same image but with slight differences - they took me a while to do but I hope they're ok!chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512298758364665112.post-13222208822842711382013-04-24T16:52:00.002-07:002013-04-24T16:52:43.370-07:00Some April craftiness<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On UK Scrappers there's a fab card swap - hosted by my mate Sian and for April the challenges are 3 Fs - Feathers (or something associated with feather) Feminine Colours and finally Frames. Last week my hubby bought me a new die and he is so cute - so decided he fitted the first bit of the challenge - I've used some pretty feminine papers to cut the die from - and my greeting is framed - see what you think :)<br />

I must admit the inchies were a challenge as my fingers are not good with small things - it was a relief to work on the twinchies - here are some photos, the first one is the inchies and the next ones are the twinchies:<br />

She is an absolute softie who uses her age when its convenient for her LOL!<br />

Hiya I've just completed my March page for an Art Journal I'm in. The theme is How Are You Feeling? The page is 8" x 8" and I first of all spritzed it with some Dylusion inks and muddied it up a bit with some Artbar crayons - the black edging is also Artbar crayon. I used a variety of Washi type tape, the word stamps and the head stamp are Paper Artsy and the bottles are from Crafty Creations. My theme is about keeping things all bottled up inside which is something I do quite a lot. The page has curved a bit but I shall be flattening that down with a big square book!chrissiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18026576501801184140noreply@blogger.com0
