Sharing an 'Oldie on Friday'

Hi Crafters,

Friday has arrived again - how quick was that week? - so it must be time to share an oldie with Erika from Snappy Crafts.

This week I am sharing two cards as they are virtually the same, they were for two brothers who are only a year apart in age and their mum wanted the same card for them.

 

Crafters Companion CD Rom Angelica & Adam

Spellbinders Lacy Circles Die

Cottage Cutz Alphabet Die

All Occasions Numbers Die

 

Such a sweet image and a typical young boy image too don't you think?

 

Thanks for dropping by today and see you soon,

 

Lorraine



More from Angelica & Adam

Hi Crafters,
What happened to the last few days? I blinked and they were gone! I promised to post my other Angelica and Adam cards so here they are now ...

All the cards were made using papers and images from the CD-Rom from Crafter's Companion.
The first card was cut using a SB Grand scalloped circle die and adding an LOTV sentiment.
The second has the SB Eyelet Circle die cut twice and layered on top of each other surrounding Adam and his little kitty friend as he skateboards to the birthday party. I also added some enamel star brads randomly over the background.
The last card shows Angelica ready for her party, complete with sparkling tiara. I placed a doily behind the deckle edged matting and used a Joanna Sheen Butterfly Flourish die ( I love this) to the side. Then I die cut a Cheery Lynn Flower die a few times from the backing papers and layered it up with a punched stamen and another enamel star brad. To finish I stamped some more of those great LOTV sentiment tags and attached those with a star brad.

Hope you are able to enjoy some lovely weather especially now that some of you have children that have finished school for the summer hols.

I'll be back tomorrow with a card made using a fabulous Lily of the Valley stamp.
See you then.

I've been playing with Angelica & Adam again

Hi Crafters,

Over the next few days I am going to be sharing a few cards that I have made using the Angelica and Adam CD-Rom from Crafters Companion. I really do like digital crafting but I also like to mix it up with stamping and 3d embellishments too.

Centura Pearl card

Doily - Magnolia die

Flowers - Flora Doodles Foam Flowers

Mini Button Brads

Sentiment - LOTV

 

The image was a decoupage sheet printed from the CD, hopefully you can see the layers and the foam flowers have been waiting patiently ( about six years, lol ) in my stash for the right project to suit them. I have decided to try and use up some of my accumulated stash instead of buying anything else new. This has been brought about by the fact that my 8' x 11' craft room has just enough space in the centre for my desk chair to wheel in and out from the desk and a path to the door  :P   I have plenty of storage that is being used to the max but the sides seem to be creeping in rapidly. So all the lovely, crafting goodies that I keep getting emails about from various companies are off limits... :(    It's also getting quite frustrating to find things that I know I have but is maybe in a box under a few other boxes and so in the end I don't use it. Wish me luck !

 

I'm entering the following challenges:

 Deep Ocean Challenge - #82 Lots of Layers
Charisma Cardz - #15 Anything Goes
Sister Act - #66 Anything Goes
My Mum's Craft Shop - #19 Summer / Bright Colours
 

 

See you all soon,

Crafters Companion - Angelica and Adam Cards

Hi Crafters,
Where did this week go? I can't believe how quickly the time is flying by lately, it's been a whole week since I blogged last, naughty girl. I haven't been idle though it's just that I can't share some of the cards that I have made yet. I can however share this batch of Angelica and Adam themed cards that I have been making for an upcoming sale that I am attending.

These were made by printing the elements from the CD Rom and adding a few of my own embellishments. I still have a lot more items to make for the sale so that will keep me busy over the next few weeks.
Hope you liked my quick share today, I have tried to visit as many blogs as I could this week but I apologise if I've missed anyone out I will endeavour to catch up with you all soon.

See you soon,
Lorraine

Hi Crafters!
I treated myself to the new CD Rom from Crafters Companion - Angelica and Adam the other day and so I thought I would have a play with it. Not only does it have coloured images and scenes to print out but line drawings for you to colour so this is Adam kicking a football.
