Stepper Card with a Difference

Well I hope that you all managed to get you Popcorn Pals from Crafters Companion yesterday, believe me they are definately worth the wait. Today I thought that I would share with you another card I made using the Popcorn Pals, I was making a normal stepper card when I sudden had a brain storm, and believe me I don't get them very often. I was just messing about with the template that I had cut out from some copier paper to see what different styles I could make and then one suddenly came into my head so I hope that you like it.

Popcorn Pals Well todays the day !!!

Well today is the day you have been waiting for, the new launch from Crafters Companion of the Popcorn Pals, double CD and stamp set. Wow this is amazing the images and backing papers are out of this world, and the stamps are so cute, you will not know where to start crafting. Today I am posting a card that I have made using the CD only and a few embellishments from my own stash. Why don't you check out the other DT's blogs for more inspiration and the Crafters Companion Blog, News Views and Inpsiration. Don't forget this will only be available to members so go across to the website to check out the amazing deals.

Thank you for stopping by.

Popcorn Pals Sneak Peak

Well tomorrow is the day that you can get your hands on Popcorn Pals and wow you won't be disappointed I think this is one of the best ranges that Crafters Companion have done. This launch is especially for you guys, the Crafter's Companion members - it's not going to be telly just yet as we wanted to keep it special for you! The range consists of a twinset CD-ROM and four stamp sets. The CD-ROM will normally retail for £29.99 and the stamps for £5.99 each...but in typical Crafter's Companion style, they are offering you a fantastic launch special so keep your eyes on their website !!!!

Anyway here is my posting for today, I used both the stamps and the CD's to make this, I wanted to make it a gift as well as a card. I thought that this would be idea for a childs first birthday, as the blocks hold all the letters of the alphabet and also number 0 to 9. I used both my cricut and ecraft to make this, together with spellbinders

Using up my Scraps

Morning all well another fantastic sunny day here, have been up since about 6 this morning, seems such a waste to be in bed when the sun is shining. Today I thought that I would share with you a card that I made from my scraps of Tim Holtz Core'dinations card from Crafters Companion. I must admit I did get this idea from an old magazine and just altered it to my own design. This is great to use up your odd scraps of card, and I used my Darice embossing folders again from Crafters Companion and sanded then with a sanding block, this makes the embossing just pop of the page.

I am also entering this into the Polka Doodles Challenge 26 - Home Sweet Home

Tim Holtz Core'dinations

Wow I hope that you have been watching the POW on Create and Craft, they are showing the new range of cardstock from Tim Holtz and I have been lucky enough to have been able to play with it, as the lovely Sara from Crafters Companion sent me some cardstock and embossing folders, and boy did I have some fun. This is the first time I have ever done this style of card I must admit I normally do pastel colours and pretty flowers. So I thought that as I had not been posting for a while, today I would show you two items that I have made using the cardstock and Darico Embossing folders both from Crafters Companion

The Adorables Today's the Day !!!

Well Friday has come at last, no more sleeps left, just loads of shows on Create and Craft 11,2 and 6 today from Crafters Companion and Jayne Nestorenko's Adorables. I must admit that it is always fantastic to work with Jayne's CD's and stamps they work together beautifully and this time the stamps sets are in pairs and they all work together as always perfectly. I thought as I was having problems with my blog at the beginning of the week that I would end it with a card that uses both CD and stamps just so that you can see how great they are together.

The Adorables One More Sleep to go

Well what we have all been waiting for is nearly here. The new Adorables range from Jayne Nestorenko and Crafters Companion will be launched tomorrow on Create and Craft at 11 o'clock, so keep your eyes peeled for some great shows. Today my card features another stamp from the Hide and Seek range and this is such a beautful stamp it could be used for any occasion. I have mounted this onto one of the beaded spellbinders and used some beautiful paper flowers.

2nd Sneak Peak for The Adorables

I am really sorry that this post is so late but I have been having problems adding images to my posts.The weather is awful and is raining stair rods, but at least we have the launch from Crafters Companion of the new Adorables on Friday. Well as promised here is another sneak peak and this time it is one of the fabulous stamped images. As always with Jayne there are so many to choose from !!!! Once again I used one of the scene images I really love these and the Hide and Seek stamp set and as always with Jayne's stamps there are so many beautiful extras that make the image beautiful. For this image I have added the walking stick, binoculars, sleeping bag, mug and bottle of water. Hopefully tomorrow my problems with adding images will have been resolved.

The Adorables First Sneak Peak

Well it does not seem that long ago that I was giving you a sneak peak from The Snowman from Crafters Companion, they have certainly been very busy recently with their new launches and their next one is on Friday 24th June on Create and Craft TV at 11 o'clock and yes it is the one we have all been waiting for the new Summer Adorable's by Jane Nestorenko.  This is a CD and set of 6 stamp sets and WOW they are just adorable !!!!. So with out more ado here is my first sneak peak. For this one I have only used the CD, I used some of the decoupage and one of the scences, but don't worry I will be showing one of the stamp sets tomorrow. I am sorry for the picture quality but the light keeps reflecting off the acetate. This is a 3d card where the individual items are suspending on acetate.

Christmas Ornament The Snowman

Wow didn't the shows go well today for The Snowman from Crafters Companion, poor Leann and Sara worked non stop all day, but what an amazing CD and stamp set. I have had a few requests for the instructions on how to make the Christmas ornament that was on the show, the instructions can be found in the May 2011 issue of DoCrafts Creavitiy magazine, which should be on sale until the end of June.

4th Sneak Peak The Snowman

Well its nearly here and only one more sleep to go before you can get your hands on the new fantastic Snowman CD and Stamps from Crafters Companion. I hope that you are all remembering to check daily for your letters which have been hidden, just check all the clues on the Crafters Companion News,Views and Inspiration blog, good luck.

Well today I thought that my sneak peak would be something a little bit different it makes a beautiful Christmas ornament and also would be something a bit different to give instead of a Chrsitmas card. I used the colouriser on the Snowman CD and this was great as I could match the colour on the ornament and the box.

Just love these die cuts - Angel Whispers

Morning all well another sunny day in the north east but we did have a heavy thunder storm last night but at least it gave the garden a good soaking. Well today I have just popped on to share with a card from the Reddy Decoupage Angel Whispers Die Cut kit from Crafters Companion. I know that I keep saying but but this is such a lovely kit to work with the images are so life like.

Another Angel Whisper

Well as promised here is another card made with the Reddy Decoupage Angel Whispers. The die cutting on these is just amazing and even the smallest pieces come out so easily. These suit any occassion .

Sorry not been here for a while

Hi well sorry I have not been here for a while but been a combination of being at the caravan for a few days ( and yes it did rain ) and having a few problems with the internet. Well today I thought that I would start and post some samples that I made from the Angels Whispers Reddy Decoupage from Crafters Companion. This is such a stunning kit to work with and all the hard work has been done for you as these are all die cut.
