<span style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Old Timer</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
Mens cards are so notoriously difficult to do, so here are a couple of options for you. Recently we have spent a lot of time around car race tracks, especially Oulton Park, so I thought it was fitting to put a car out there - not the kind of car we have been watching on the race track but a car of the more quieter and slower bygone Classical era.<br />
<br />
Using beautiful cardstock and the contrast with the dull craftcard, then the image is watercoloured in sepia. The metalic edge and swirly dots are created with <a href="http://www.indigoblu.com/" target="_blank">flitterglu </a>and gilding flakes. <br />

This card is made using Cumbria Colour Card and the plain colours from <a href="https://www.papermilldirect.co.uk/" target="_blank">Paper Mill Direct</a>, I love the contrast of the buff and the pale turquoise and teal.<br />
<br />
The centre piece backgrounds is made from <a href="http://www.stix2.co.uk/a4-self-adhesive-sparkly-acetate-sheet" target="_blank">sticky sparkle acetate</a> which you can see over the watches and timer, but then alcohol inks are pounced on to the surface with a little blending solution and the magic happens.<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Daisy Bird</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
This is a card I<a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/productcatalogue/detail.php?pid=FRS281" target="_blank">Woodware Stamps by Creative Expressions</a> made a while ago but I just love it, using different background papers and a lovely swirly embossing folder, on the bottom one I left it plain, but it just looks so much better with a bit of versamark ink over the embossed background kraft card to define the edges of the emboss and just glossing accents over the bird and flowers. Both versions are coloured with copic pens. Lovely bird from <span id="goog_1995255136"></span><a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/productcatalogue/detail.php?pid=FRS281" target="_blank">Woodware stamps</a>.<span id="goog_1995255137"></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Fairy Sparkle</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
Well its still January! - what a dreary month, the last pay day seems a long way a way, the weather has been awful and I'm another year older! Three things to depress me in particular - but its not all bad!<br />
<br />
I had my first class at <a href="http://rowantreecrafts.co.uk/courses" target="_blank">Rowan Tree Crafts</a>, and got to play with some lovely new products, we had a lovely day I hope you like the results. Thank you for Sharon and Annie for looking after us.<br />
<br />
The first card using the wonderful <a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/productcatalogue/index.php?tid=4869&pbid=BRAND&lev=2&did=WOODWARE" target="_blank">Woodware </a>mushrooms, I coloured them with copic pens and then painted them with glue and seal to give them a sheen for a very clean and simple card.<br />
<br />
For the second card, I created a fold back card for the Fairy New Home card using <a href="http://laviniastamps.com/" target="_blank">Lavinia Stamps</a>, and the message from Lili of the Valley, also using distress inks with the glorious Jones Tones glitter.<br />
<br />
The third card is 3 in a box from <a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/productcatalogue/index.php?tid=4869&pbid=BRAND&lev=2&did=WOODWARE" target="_blank">Woodware</a>, a lovely stamp by <a href="http://janeelizabeth-flowergirl.blogspot.co.uk/search?updated-max=2016-10-04T00:00:00%2B01:00&max-results=7&start=14&by-date=false" target="_blank">Jane Gill.</a> I used Brushos for the background cobalt blue and a bit of purple, my fingers were blue for days!!! and we even dyed the ribbon to match, my advice - with hindsight - wear gloves! The embossing folder was from Sue Wilson by <a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/" target="_blank">Creative Expressions.</a><br />

<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="background-color: white;">New Year New Start</span></span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
Well 2018 the start of a new era! This was the first class on my own, using whatever products I wanted, in a totally new venue, so I tried to make a varied selection. <br />
<br />
We used the <a href="http://www.hobbyartstamps.com/" target="_blank">Hobby Art </a>set for the guys, this is a great set as it has two main images and then lots of accent stamps - hence the wine bottles and glasses. The middle background sets were again from <a href="http://www.beecrafty.net/stamps.irc" target="_blank">Bee Crafty,</a> using the numbers set and clear embossing powder to create the resist and the harlequin set and copper embossing powder to create the darker side.<br />
<br />
Abby and Tom got engaged so I made them an engagement card and then adapted the design with a different stamp set for an anniversary card. These stamps are from <a href="http://www.beecrafty.net/stamps.irc" target="_blank">Bee Crafty,</a> thanks girls they are lovely and we used most of the set in the class. Just missed out the larger ones as they wouldn't fit in my new tonic octagon frame.<br />
<br />
And last but not least the quick card - Pete Hughes bubbles from <a href="https://www.sizzix.co.uk/" target="_blank">Sizzix</a> and lovely flowers from<a href="https://www.leanecreatief.nl/?ButtonID=340" target="_blank"> leane creatief,</a> die cut out of a background brayered with <a href="http://rangerink.com/?product=tim-holtz%C2%AE-distress-ink-pads" target="_blank">Tim Holts Distress Oxides</a>. This is a really quick and effective card, with a modern twist using twine, washi tape and a bit of florist ribbon.<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
Just thought I would show you a few of the cards we have done recently. This is a great card for people who go yachting, and guys in general. Created on a white cardstock base card with kraft card accents, and a lovely teal card from <a href="http://www.papermilldirect.co.uk/" target="_blank">papermilldirect</a> embossed with a <a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/" target="_blank">creative expressions </a>embossing folder. The stamp set is comprehensive and comes from <a href="http://www.creative-expressions.uk.com/" target="_blank">Woodware,</a> designed by Jane Gill. I hope you like it.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">My Mixed Media Mayhem Messy Weekend 2</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
Recently, I went on a two-day Mixed Media Crafting weekend in Lancaster held by <a href="http://rowantreecrafts.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rowan Tree Crafts</a> in Carnforth, Lancashire. The tutor was <a href="http://speshink.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Mark Gould</a> from <a href="http://decoart.com/" target="_blank">DecoArt</a>. A big thank you to all who organised this fab weekend, I had a great time I can't wait to go again next year, i'll start saving now!<br />
<br />
This year's projects were very different to last years, we were tutored by Kate Crane on the first day creating a lovely journal cover which I still haven't finished, so I will upload it later when it is done.<br />
<br />
The second day was with Mark Gould, and we used seven gypsies papers and lots of Deco Art products to produce six panels and the frame you see below, we just chose 3 of the six panels to go in the frame and I have 3 more to create a further project with. The Seven Gypsies papers were fantastic to use, and so strong in texture and double sided with lovely useable images.<br />
<br />
Here are some images of the completed project.<br />

It was amazing, we all started off with the same products, used the same techniques, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
but depending on the colours of paint, panel choices and stamps we used everyone's projects </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
were different.</div>

Hi All<br />
Here are the class cards from Saturday 14th October's class, using Distress Oxides and Woodware stamps for the baubles, each piece is unique and this got quite messy to do, but the oxides create some lovely colours, very different from Distress Inks. <br />

</tbody></table>
The Polar Bear, is one of my favourites of this year's Woodware Christmas stamps, coloured using Copic pens with a creative expression embossing folder, this time using Pixie Powders in the background, these give a beautiful sheen to the background rather like the I imagine northern lights to be. Using the extra pixie powder card behind the sentiment to pull it all together.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
I hope you like them. <br />
<br />
Best wishes<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Birthday Cards</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
This is Emma's Birthday card I had two distinct ideas and I could not decide which to do, so .... This is a beautiful Daisy Mae Stamp Design Stamp from Clare Rowlands, on the outside. <br />
<br />
But as Emma studied Forensic Science and Anthropology at Uni, and her Birthday is so close to Halloween - I could not leave it there - so ........ scroll down for the inside, its a bit of a contrast with the outside, so Zoe said "put it in the middle" so I did.<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
I saw a picture in an art shop window and liked flowers and the multi coloured background and thought I would have a go with Brushos and stamps and see what I could come up with. We had lots of fun getting messy with these. I hope you like them, everyone is different depending on the amount of water and Brusho.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Gingerbread Men and Aliens</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
Just thought I would put this one on the blog today - I made it originally for Jacob's Birthday and he loved it - so I did it again with the class, I have also used this design with the Gingerbread Men for Christmas, which I have added below - a fairly versatile design, anyone who has seen Monsters Inc will recognise the colour scheme for our alien friends. Both sets of stamps come from Francoise Read collection at <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware </a>and they are both coloured with Copic pens, all available from <a href="http://www.mypaperwarehouse.co.uk/" target="_blank">The Paper Warehouse.</a><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Happy Christmas</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
I hope you have had a fantastic Christmas. I want to thank everyone who sent me some fab Christmas cards (handmade of course), I loved seeing your work. I have put some crafty inspiration on the blog for you today, just a few cards and a tag made for you to have a look at, I hope you like them. The tag is from the Snowmen set in the Francoise Collection by <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a> from last year but I just love it.<br />

The heavy acetate cover has been sprinkled with Stampendous Chunky White embossing powder and heated from below. The sentiments this time are from Jane Gill's collection for Woodware - I just love the combination - this card takes a while (the arms are a bit fiddly to cut out, but they stick back on well if they fall off) but is good fun to do and its worth it for special people. <br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Woodware Mixed Media Birthday Message Book</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
This year Francoise Read created some lovely messages for <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a>, so I thought I would put them all together in a little book - just because it keeps them all together. There was no acetate in this book just fixed pages, which were a little more difficult to work with as some of the papers creased when I closed the book, (my fault, because I didn't leave it to dry long enough between pages.) I made each double spread different styles depending on the papers (from little tag books) and punched out the flowers on the front from card I had been experimenting with blending distress inks. I also used the bubble stencil again with distress inks - ok obsession over - moving on.<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
Lots of you liked my mixed media book all about <a href="http://daisydoodlecraft.blogspot.co.uk/2016/05/my-mixed-media-messy-weekend.html" target="_blank">Alice in Wonderland </a>- so I thought I would make another for Christmas - the book was supplied by <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a> and using <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Francoise Read's</a> lovely Christmas Stamp designs, the papers are from <a href="http://www.craftworkcards.co.uk/" target="_blank">Craftwork Cards</a>. The front page is a clear acetate so Stazon was needed, and positioned so the elf was peeping through.<br />

I really enjoyed having a go with this, the neutral papers and the denim blue made the colours in the images pop, and having the acetate layers enabled me to add the postage elements on top of the coloured images to make Santa speak and add some fun elements to the Gingerbread Men.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Woodware Christmas Samples</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
<br />
The Christmas Card season is here again. These are the new 2016 Christmas stamp samples that I created using <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Francoise Read's</a> designs and <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a> Stamps, I have used <a href="http://www.papermilldirect.co.uk/" target="_blank">Papermill Direct</a> card with them and they looked great on the mantlepiece test (all my cards have to have a mantlepiece test) to make sure they stand up and look fabulous - I hope you like them. None of these samples are overly complicated and can be made in batches - I hope you find inspiration here for your own Christmas Cards.<br />
<br />
There will be other versions of the same stamps coming soon ........ and a few others too.<br />
<br />
Also using Stampendous tinsel embossing powder, copic pens, and a bit of shrink plastic. <br />
<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
Sorry its been a long time since my last post - I have been busy, with accountancy qualifications not cardmaking ones - oh that would be fun - do they do qualifications in cardmaking? <br />
<br />
These are mostly non - Christmas Cards except for the one in front - now I have time to upload the cards I have been doing all along - some of you will have already seen some of them on the <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a> Site, and on Pinterest, but there are even more to come. <br />
<br />
For all of you who joined us for Craft Day at <a href="http://www.mypaperwarehouse.co.uk/index.php?route=information/static" target="_blank">The Paper Warehouse (Papermill Direct)</a> in August - here are some of the cards you didn't see.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79;">Birthday Card for my daughter</span></h2>
Hi All<br />
I just thought I would share the card I made for my daughters 16th birthday, using the surprise stamp from <a href="http://www.woodware.co.uk/" target="_blank">Woodware</a>, the vintage papers from <a href="http://www.craftworkcards.co.uk/" target="_blank">Craftwork Cards</a>, <a href="http://www.dutchdoobadoo.nl/en/" target="_blank">Dutch Doobadoo</a> stencil, and card from <a href="https://www.papermilldirect.co.uk/" target="_blank">Papermill Direct</a> all from the <a href="http://www.mypaperwarehouse.co.uk/" target="_blank">Paper Warehouse</a> at Grosvenor House Papers, with the Jasmine Stamp from <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/" target="_blank">Lili of the Valley </a>and the 1960’s car from <a href="http://www.tatteredlace.co.uk/" target="_blank">Tattered Lace</a>.<br />
<br />
This fit Zoe to a T, she is always wearing a hoodie, on the phone, and her surprise for her birthday was a young driver lesson in a Mini at <a href="http://www.oultonpark.co.uk/" target="_blank">Oulton Park</a>.<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
As soon as I saw this stamp it just fired up my imagination and I just could not wait to get started. Firstly I created a card then spotted the box and just let rip. Hope you like what I put together.<br />
Would really like to hear what you think of them . . . enjoy<br />
