Happy Haunting

Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I posted on my blog but I thought given the detail on my haunted house you may all like to see some more close up pictures.

 
My house has been made using the new paper, stamp and embellishments  collection from Craft Consortium called Happy Haunting which has been illustrated by the lovely Helz Cuppleditch and you can buy it HERE.
 

My cute little Owls have been stamped, coloured in and fussy cut out using one of the stamp sets in the collection as has my sign, I added Glossy Accents to their eyes.

The chimneys on my house have had the wonderful witches hats embellishments added onto them. I added a little alcohol ink and gilding wax to age them.

 

I added a couple of pumpkins into the garden also adding a witches hat onto the top of it.

 
My fence was cut and layered up 3 times in black cardstock to make it nice and rigid adding a little gilding wax to give a metallic feel to it. I glued this onto a small box I made with my scoreboard for the base.

Here are some cards and a gift bag I also made using this collection.

 

Many thanks for stopping by today I do appreciate it.

Thinking of You

Hi everyone, I thought I’d share a card I have recently made as a gift for a friend that has recently gone through heart surgery.

This card uses papers from the stunning range called Summer Garden from Paper Boutique.
It also uses a variety of dies from the John Next Door range.

The yellow flowers and Ferns are both retired dies from Susan Tierney Cockburn.

The Doily is also a retired Cheery Lynn die.

Thanks for stopping by.
