Happy St Patrick's Day!

  Happy St Patrick's Day!  I've picked one of my digi's to do a St Patrick's card today. I did have an idea in my head what colours and papers, only.... my printer ran out of ink and I knew I'd make a lovely mess....or put the wrong colour in the wot'sname, so left that to good ol' Hubby.

 So...I had to hunt out some papers that were either already printed or in a paper pad...I chose these....nothing to do with St Patricks day at all! But Freebies from #112 QuickCards Made Easy, way back in April 2013. (GO HERE)I loved the colours and those little dragonflies. So I cut the pearl card I used yesterday into 11inches by 5 and a half and scored at 5 and a half, then coloured all the edging using a Turquoise Promarker to make it look like layers, then coloured in my little Leprechaun using the same sort of colours, added a gem rainbow (The Works) and die cut the words 'For You' and 'Cheers' in the same pearl card coloured with the Turquoise Promarker. 

My horse shoe punch was rubbish and wouldn't cut out the card, so I just used baco foil.  I wanted to add a shamrock as I know I must have a punch or a die somewhere, as there's one on yesterdays card... I might pull it off! Anyway, I couldn't find it. The inside I've made a pocket for money or a gift card and may add a circle die in white to write on...The stitched square die-cut come from Craft,  a set of 8 from places like the Range, Hobby Craft or Trago Mills. Here I've 'framed' the Leprechaun. The die cut sentiments are freebie from Crafty Magazines.  Inside there's some cloud papers, I will add a link if I can find them for free!

The little candi buttons were cream, so I just coloured them the same and the ticky-tacky paper they're fixed to are from a New Year set of  freebie Doggy party papers from 'Gathered'. Here   You might have to sign in. I might add some Stickles gold to the gold in the pot. I think they need to sparkle a little bit more! That's it for now. Thank you from stopping by!

Blast from the past! #6

 Every Monday I'm going to (or try to!) add a card, or creation that I made waaay back, as I've noticed a lot of my pictures from years ago have disappeared. So...here we go with something from either the 1st of the month, first time I'd used or done something or... made on a Monday or made in the same month as now! These cards were added as my favourite cards of 2012 and posted on the 1st January 2013

My Favourite cards of 2012

2012 was a really bad year for us, except of course the birth of baby Niamh!! But I wanted to join in with Debby's usual annual post of picking her five favourite cards for 2012 (All her cards are fantastic!) and what a great way to end the year....Here's mine, starting with... January... and you'll notice I can't count!!!! There's so much more than five!
  This card was actually a birthday card for my s-i-l the year before, but I posted it again when it appeared in the Trimcraft Newsletter... (I won goodies!)
February I made this card using one of my own digi's. The card was double sided and had a secret place to add money or a  token.

March you saw this Birthday card as a Quirky Craft DT card, my challenge and sketch. I just love Bugaboo!

April you saw the first one of two...birthday cards from my two dog sitting dogs to their 'daddy' The inside folds out. I made the papers using Promarkers.
 So, when May came along I did another card from the 'boys' to their 'mummy'. It was nice to see both cards stayed up long after the birthdays had been forgotten!!

By June, Lady Pam was a true member of our family and I sent her this card for her 81st birthday

July sees another Bugaboo card and some more of my Promarker made freebie papers. And I....
 had to add the Bugaboo Fridge magnet too and of course this Quirky Christmas in July card...
and seeing I love Santa...I gave it to Hubby John! And still in July....
  

August and September I was a Guest designer with Bugaboo 
so I made quite a few...
and added their little bug badge...
          to my DT cards...
 This one I think is my favourite! Love that wired ribbon!
  October brought us Halloween another Bugaboo
  and this SteamPunk fairy image from Stitchy won a few times and...
    My Bugaboo shaker  tutorial card won a few challenges too

In November I was making a few Christmas cards, another Bugaboo card
as well as thank you cards....and last but not least...
You saw this Christmas card using a  Dustin Pike's image, which I sent to my daughter in USA...
Yep, I know I've added too many....but never mind!
Wishing everyone who calls in a very Happy New Year! Big Hugs All Round!!
