Cars for the boys

Hello there, Hope you are having relaxing weekend? Well I have not posted for while as I had some technical problems and within that I have been a little stressed out and sure enough my anxiety as come back with vengeance, so thats why I have been slightly quiet but I'm hoping to get back to normal now on.

I thought you might like to see this card I created especially for boy who is almost teenager but not quite there yet, that awkward age I suppose? Men's and boys cards can be difficult to get right but luckily I have the perfect CD rom that was purchased some years ago, but it came in handy for sure. 

The CD rom in question is the My Craft Studio CD rom called Men-y happy returns and was available through their papercraft library. I'm so glad that it's in my crafty stash as its helped me so much over the years.

Totally loving the stitched detail and fits perfectly for boy's card, the stitched effect was created using my beloved Silhouette Cameo.

Black and Gold

Hello there, well its a bank holiday here in the UK, so I decided to spend some time on my crafting and what lovely way to spend a bank holiday. For a few months now I have not used my beloved Silhouette Cameo... I know its shocking, but I have been doing few crafty things. Well I thought I would get myself using the my fabulous Cameo again... I love my cameo and must admit I have missed using it. 

So on went the radio and I got into my zen crafty bubble.. This is what I have created today especially for a couple we know, who are coming up to their first wedding anniversary.

I wanted to use the Clean and Simple (CAS) again, as the couple are young couple and are moving very soon, So I thought this would be just perfect for them both. 

Black and gold goes so well together, plus the black on black gives you some luxury and still looks Clean and Simple (CAS)
