The clock's ticking for an old man...

...(hee hee!) I made this birthday card for Phil's birthday. I love the different shades and patterns with grey, black and silver.

The Stampin' Up! Clockworks stamp set in the current Annual Catalogue,  is brilliant and so versatile and I'm totally loving all eight of these stamps in the set (definitely one of my all time favourite stamp sets). There are so many combinations and different effects to choose, and I've made many very different looking cards from this set. I cut and punched some images out and layered them up. The greetings are from the For My Family stamp set and the papers are from the Neutrals Colour Collection DSP stack. I really like this card!

Sorry for the short post, but nodding off to sleep here LOL!

Keep crafting!

Cute Baby Mini Albums

Hello crafters. I thought I would share these wee Baby Mini Albums that I made a couple of months ago after I had seen a YouTube video from Dawn Griffiths. It's so quick and easy. The main album is made from just scoring and folding one 12 x 12 sheet of card stock. I made these using Stampin' Up! Bashful Blue and Pretty in Pink Card Stock and matching Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack and matching Classic Stampin' Ink Pads. This stamp set which I absolutely adore is the cute Baby Prints Stamp Set which was in the Summer Mini Catalogue (it's worthwhile if you check out the new Annual Catalogue which comes out next month to see if it's still available!!!).

Here's an ariel view with the belly band off and the Album opened.

Contact me if you wish to purchase any of these materials.
I was just thinking, since I've been sharing photos of views from my house windows this week, I will share some of the fantastic views I have whilst I sit and craft.
