Ultimate Tag Album

I just adore these little tag albums they are so cute and interesting to use. I wanted to make one for my friend as she loves my birds so using Plantin Schoolbook, Home Accents, New Cardstock from Papermania, Cuttlebug Birds and Leaves Embossing folder and ribbons I made this one.
I also made a small box to present it in.
The photo's are some she herself took one day when here for lunch/craft session, thanks for those lovely shots.

Alcohol Inks

I wanted to use these inks I bought a while back but so far have had no ideas for them. Then I found some A4 sheets of acrylic sheet so I bought some and got to work and this is what I have come up with. Memo boards which would make a great gift for a friend or maybe someone who plays Bingo to hold their playing cards on.

To protect the inks from being rubbed and scratched off I turned them over and applied card to the worked side, in my opinion the effect from the other side is much better than the worked side.




Used:
Acrylic sheet 3mm thick
Alcohol inks
Fancy Clip from Staples
Cardstock
Clear adhesive

A new car for my Dad

I wanted to do something a bit different for my Dad this year for Fathers Day and saw this made by a friend and had to give it a try. I took a whole day for the first one which was awful but the second attempt as a bit better. I think this turned out to be the most expensive card I ever made. I think I could have bought a real "Rolls" for the cost of this card!!!!

Golden Wedding



It was my lovely Aunt and Uncles Golden Wedding Anniversary so I made them this card

Easter, just a bit late







These are some of the first things I made with my Cricut and non-cricut too















































Tag Book




How cute is this, it has since been filled with, yes you guessed it, Noah :-)









Scrapbook Page Billcat



This is my dear departed cat Billy, he is much missed by us. He sadly died of cancer last year. I adore these papers which came free with a magazine, they suit this layout so well.

Bind-it All Photo Albums




Here are a couple of albums one is for my new kittens, Herbie & Freddie and the other is of course a Grandson Album!!!


Circle Albums

CIRCLE ALBUMS







Thanks to the lady on U Tube for this Fab idea I really love making these too.



This one is of my new Grandson Noah I made a little box for them all to keep them nice










































This one is old family photo's, the papers really look nice with black and white shots.


































Cart reminder book



I made this Bind-it All book to put a sheet for each option to a cart so that I can look them up easier. I have laminated each page to keep them clean as they get a lot of use. Sorry they do not photograph well due to the glare but you can get the general idea.



Paper Dolls Book




I made this to put all my sample dolls in.



I just adore the Peachy Keen Stamps for the faces

Bind-it All Notebooks










I just love to make these little notebooks I now have lots of them!!!





















Album made from old CD's


I made this for my daughter using my Bind-it All and some free CD's from magazines, I cut the circles on the cricut, what a godsend that is being able to get a perfect round shape, a job I found impossible before

Previous work I have made





I thought I would add some photo's of previous work I have done. Forgive any you may have seen on the Cricut site already.










Many thanks to the lady "Chicnscratch" who posted the popsicle Cards on U-Tube they are wonderful and such fun to make

See her fab tutorial here





This is a boxed card I made for my partners sister
