OMG - British craft Awards

 
I know I don't very often come on here anymore, but I just had to share my news.
 
 
 
I have just received an email from the editor of Cardmaking and Papercarft magazine (I design for their magazine) that I have made the short list for Favourite card-maker of the year in the British Craft Awrds 2016! I am speechless & it's such a surprise for me to even be nominated.
 
 If you'd like to vote for me you can do so here - www.britishcraftawards.com

Mac's 13th

 
Hi strangers.
I can't believe it's been so long.
 
I really felt that I needed a break from crafting.
 
I've been doing my magazine work, but other than that I stepped down from all of my DT duties.
 
I just felt that I had lost my mojo and there was so much happening at home.
My M.I.L has had an annexe built onto our house, Darren has been so stressed at work and we are having lots done to our house too!
 
Anyway I hope all is well in the crafting world.
 
It was Mackenzie's 13th birthday on Friday and she asked for a homemade card.
 
I hope my mojo is returning and once things start to take shape at home I'll get the craft room sorted and up & running again.
 
 
Here's Mac's card.
 
 
 
She is really loving the copper / Rose gold trend that is so BIG at the moment so I used that as my inspiration,  and added lots of copper frantage.
The image is a digi from the 80s & 90s fashion duo from Saturated Canary
 
I hope you like it

Happy Birthday xoxo

 Wow! Wednesday already, I love "short" weeks.

I'm a bit late today as I took Mackenzie to see The Vamps last night,
We were so close, it was amazing.
At one point the lead singer climbed over to the barrier and Mac was within reach of him,
but someone pushed her out of the way and she panicked bless her.
 
I have a quick make to share today,
I've used one on of the beautiful clear stamps & teamed with some of the gorgeous Noor! dies

 These papers are so pretty, I love the cute little xoxo
I've used one of the border dies to make a hinge, 
and added a few black pearls to my butterfly.
The gorgeous chandelier is tucked between the
older style bunting & the elegant border die.

A couple of pictures of last night ~ Soooo close!
That's Mac in front, and her favourite band member.

And her Sunglasses work perfectly with the papers I've chosen.
I am sooooooo in love with this paper pad, it's so pretty.
The wooden butterflies have been painted using both

Tucked behind the flourishes I have used the structure paste with the Floral mask,
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you can join us

The Best Is Yet To Come . . .

 Hi everyone,
I haven't coloured many images lately and forgot how therapeutic it is,
I have used Mr & Mrs from LOTV for my wedding card today.
The gorgeous, elegant border die, and a close up of the scrummy cake, 
I have not added the iced layers to this one.
I've tucked the "love-birds" behind the main image
I've used part of the label die for the sentiment.
I've used the individual "fronds" from Leaf 0047 
and randomly tucked  in the bouquet
 

Thanks for looking,
There's more info on my blog
