Where is the time going???

I always have good intentions to post on here regularly.. but time just goes away with me!

Anyhow, I wanted to share a few new cards with you. These are doing the rounds to my demos with me, but I was asked by the lovely Jill last week to upload them onto my blog... so without further ado, here you go.

The first one that Jill asked for was the ones with the embossing folders, so here is one, above, which uses the fab new Docrafts folder lightly rubbed over with inky fingers!!! I had blue ink on the ends of my fingers and happened to rub over the design, and some of the ink transferred. Me thinks that this could perhaps be a new technique.. finger rubbing! Now, there's a thought!

Here's a variation on that technique.. lol.. properly inked up with an ink pad, inside the folder and then embossed onto the card.

I shaded the rest of the background with blue ink too to give a distressed look.

And here is my favourite card for today....

The image is one of the free stamps from the front of this month's Creativity magasine. She's really lovely and quite a nice size too... don't you think?

I've teamed the image up with the lovely papers from the Happy Days collection. Loving the flowery retro look.

I finished it off with a 3d flower made with the Glitterations stickers...

Righty.. I need to make a move as I'm sat down at Create and Craft at the moment ready to do the second show of the day .... it's all about Christmas today!!

Whatever you're upto, enjoy yourself and remember to do a bit of crafting along the way!

Back soon... xx
