Keeping Warm

2011-06-13T15:56:00.004+10:00

Hi,

Here is a card that I made a VERY LONG TIME AGO and just found it in my computer archives, I thought I would put this on my blog as it is so cold and wet here in Sydney. I used very bright colours on this card with a very simple layout.

It's one of Mo Manning's images called "Ready for the Snow" you can find it here with many other fantastic images http://www.mosdigitalpencil.com/

Hope you like it?

Thanks for stopping by today, Fiona :0)

Hello,

I know it's been along time that I have posted anything on my blog, my mojo just keeps going for walkabouts! Lol.. :0)

Anyway, I made this card using a stamp from "docrafts, Pampered Pets" by Andrea Jayne Evans the "Highland Terrier" stamp. I stamped it twice, cut them out then coloured their "body warmer coats" in different colours, then used Crystal Effects to make them stand out slightly. Put them on some pop dots and laid one in front of the other, coloured the grass with some Copic markers with some Prismacolor pencils to soften the look. There you have it. Hope you like it? If you are the only person looking at my site, I appreciate it, Fiona.

Missing You

2011-05-12T18:20:00.000+10:00

Hi Everyone,

Here is a card I made using a Mo Manning image called "Jack Waiting". You can find this image and many more through this website http://digitalpenciltoo.blogspot.com/

The chair was cut out with my Silhouette machine and the image was coloured with my Copics. I love this paper as it reminded me of wallpaper that I once saw in a little cottage in the UK. I used a punch for the Moon and a white gel marker to make it look like it was snowing.

Hope you like it, it is much brighter in real life but has an old fashion feel around it. I quiet like this card hee hee :0)

Anyway, hope you are having a lovely day, thanks for popping by today, Fiona :0)

Hello,

Long time no see!

I made this card for a very dear friend of ours, Ali-Bear. I got her Birthday Date wrong by 4 days, so this card is for the saying "when it rains, it pours"

Anyway, I really love the face on this bear and Ali's favourite colour is Orange, so this is what I came up with.

You can click on the photo to get a closer look; I added sparkles to the raindrops and puddle.

Happy Birthday to my Little Girl

2010-07-21T16:50:00.009+10:00

Hi,

Sorry it has been such a long time since my last post. Life just keeps getting in the way!!!

I made this card last night for my little girl's birthday, I say "little girl" she is actually 12 years old today! Time goes so fast! It does not help that I added another year to her when I was telling people how old she was! What a Mother I am!!!

She loves blue and I saw these sparkling letters in The Reject Shop yesterday and straight away I knew that they were for Em's card!

Anyway, you can click on it to see a closer look. its a plain card, as we both do not like fussy, Em was happy with it, that's all that matters to me, lol..

Have a nice day, thanks, for popping by today, Fiona

2010-06-04T10:28:00.001+10:00

Hello, I find it hard to do male cards, so I was pleased to find this stamp set at Catchy Crafts, Hornsby.

This reminds me of a friend of ours who is a whiz on the BBQ - it made me laugh as I put a sausage above his head as if he was flicking the tools to say something and the sausage flew off the fork! Lol

Anyway, off to make more cards, thanks for popping in today to visit my blog. Fiona :0)

Happy Birthday

2010-06-04T09:28:00.003+10:00

I got this stamp from Catchy Crafts, Hornsby and I love her face. I used Copic pens to colour her in, also from Catchy Crafts.

I Love You!

2010-06-03T10:15:00.005+10:00

Birthday Cake

2010-06-03T09:37:00.004+10:00

Hello, long time no hear! Sorry!

You know how life can be sometimes, it just runs away with you and before you know it a couple of months have gone passed!

Anyway, here is a card that I done last night to try and get me back into the swing of things. I am not very happy with this card as I ended up having to cut out the letters! they would not fit on my card because of the way I had spaced them out on the stamping block, I should have thought about it in more detail, but never mind, I just wanted to get this card out the way to start another! You can click on the picture for a closer look.

Hope you have a lovely day, Thanks for popping by today. Fiona :0)

You're Kinda Cute

2010-04-19T18:04:00.018+10:00

I forgot about this card I made this morning.

It's from Mo's Digital Pencil too. Have a look at Mo's drawings, they are fantastic.

You can click the link on the side bar or go to http://digitalpenciltoo.blogspot.com.

My favourite animals are Hedgehogs and I REALLY love this drawing from Mo.

I coloured it with Copic pens and mounted it on dimensionals to make it stand out from the base of the card, it does not show it in this photo very well, but looks really nice in real life.

You can click on the photo for a closer look.

Anyway, I promise this is the last card for today,

See ya soon, Fiona :0)

Hi,

Just made another two cards with a new Penny Black stamp I got yesterday. I like his funny little face! I am not sure about the one with the green spotty background?

Thank you for your support while I have been away looking after my Dad who was very sick. Unfortunately he passed away on the 16th February, thankfully it was very peaceful and without pain. I am just beginning to feel a little bit normal after all this time, It hit me a lot harder than I thought it would, but now I am on the mend and ready to get crafty!

I have made a few cards while I had some time to myself going through my thoughts etc, so I hope you like this one?

This is a drawing that I got from this website http://karensdoodles.blogspot.com/ - These are images drawn by Karen Johnson.

I really love this drawing. Please visit her site, Karen has so many Digi Stamps that are a lot of fun. Please read her "Angel Policy" as Karen's work is also protected by her "Copyright Policy".

Snowmen in the Snow

2009-11-01T18:09:00.007+11:00

Helloooo!

I made this card the other day and I think it is a really simple little card that you could make lots of in a hurry.

Anyway, hope you like it? Thank you for visiting my blog today, Fiona :)

Orange Flower Thank You

Hi,

I had another half hour to myself, so I thought I would make another card!

I really like these colours, I am earthy person, so I like Browns, Orange, Green etc. I could not get this to photograph properly, it has sparkles at the tips of the flowers which look really nice when the light hits them, I am not sure if they show up as pretty on this photo, oh well!.

Anyway, have to go, see you later and thanks again for visiting my blog, Fiona :)

Thank You Card with Small Gift Box

2009-10-25T15:07:00.009+11:00

Hello, me again.

While I was in a box making mood, I made a couple more. This one is a little "Thank You" to a School Teacher who has been very supportive to my little boy this year. He has come such a LONG way from last year and I am sure it is because of this particular Teacher who has been firm, but fair and he has just blossomed from it.

I hope you like it? See you soon and Thank You for visiting my blog. Fiona :) ( You can click on the picture to get a closer look).

"Hello" Card with Small Gift Box

2009-10-25T15:00:00.009+11:00

Hi, I made this card and small gift box for a friend of mine who is feeling a bit down at the moment. The small box is just big enough to put some small "Lindt" Chocolates in (about 9). I added sparkles of course to make it shine! ( You can click on the picture to get a closer look).

Hope you like it? Thank you for visiting my blog today :) Fiona

Sparkling Christmas Bird

2009-10-22T16:51:00.012+11:00

Hello again, I am trying out some new stamps that I have recently purchased for Christmas.

I made this card in a bit of a rush and I am not sure if I like it or not!

I added some sparkles to try and make it more interesting, but I am not convinced!

Anyway, hope you like it?

Have a lovely day and thank you for visiting my blog, Fiona :)

Hello,

Hope you are having a nice weekend?

I just found this card which I done a little while ago. I am not sure about it, as it is in pink! - not a colour I use a lot, I am more your earthy tones really! I thought I would step outside of my box and try it!

Anyway, it looks like a summer meadow to me!!

Hope you like it and thank you for visiting my blog, Fiona :)

Christmas Elf's

2009-10-11T16:29:00.018+11:00

Hello, sorry I have not posted anything for a while. My father is very sick at the moment and has come too live with me so that I can look after him.

Anyway, I have made this Christmas card with a stamp set from Stampin' Up called "Holiday Line Up" .

I think they are so sweet, look at their lovely faces. (you can click on the picture for a closer look). The set comes with Elf's, Reindeer's and Snowmen. I have made cards with the rest of the set and will post them very shortly. Hope you like it?

Thank you for visiting my blog, Have a nice day, Fiona

Merry Christmas Reindeer

2009-08-26T10:04:00.019+10:00

Hello again,

I thought I would try and catch up on making some Christmas Cards.

Do you know that there is only 121 days left until Christmas!! I cannot believe how fast this year has gone! Anyway, I brought this Reindeer stamp such along time ago and forgot all about it, so I thought I would see how a card would turn out! I have to say that I think it's a really fun card and I enjoyed colouring it in. I love their faces. Of course I had to add a little sparkle to the card or it would not be Christmas! (You can click on the card to have a closer look)

Anyway, Hope you like it? Thank you for stopping by, Fiona :)

Birthday Cards in Black and White

2009-08-20T20:50:00.009+10:00

Hello, I made these Black & White Birthday Cards about 6 months ago!

I thought this paper was so lovely. I added sparkles to the main flower on the card on the right ( I thought that if you clicked on the photo that you could see it properly, but I just tried it and it does not show the sparkles as well as they are in real life, they are so pretty when you hold the card up to the light - Honestly :) - I am not sure why these pictures are not as clear as when I look at them on my computer, they are so sharp, but look fuzzy here? - Any ideas?

I love the brads at the bottom of the card on the left, I have never used brads like this before so I was not sure what to do with them, ( I had them a long time! ) I am still not sure if I have used them in the right way. LOL - Anyway, Thank you for stopping by, Take Care, Fiona :)

Wish Big

2009-08-20T19:02:00.011+10:00

Hello again,

I am not sure what you think, but I have a lot of trouble making cards for men, so I thought that this combination of the colour and the trees are OK? The stamp sets are from "Stampin' Up", they are called "Lovely As a Tree" (this is my favorite stamp set) and the words are from the "Short & Sweet" stamp set, the ink is also from "Stampin' Up" called Chocolate Chip. I purchased these from my lovely friend Kim Tonnet a "Stampin' Up Demonstrator". You can contact her on ktonnet@bigpond.net.au if you would like to order them.

Anyway, that's it for now, hope you have a lovely day, You can click on the photo for a closer look :)

Wishes and Friendship

2009-08-20T18:38:00.005+10:00

Here are some more cards I made about two weeks ago. I love this paper. I have added some Rhinestones to the flowers to make them stand out slightly. (you can click on the photos to have a closer look).

Well that's it for now, I am off to make some more cards!

Thank you for visiting my blog :) Fiona

Jumping Frog

2009-08-19T14:31:00.005+10:00

Hello, I have just finished these cards for a couple of friends of mine who are at home sick at the moment. I thought they may bring a smile to their faces as they both love frogs very much.

I love these colours. I think that the card on the left with the circles in the background remind me of Lilly Pads? The frog on the right and the flower on the left have been raised with dimensional foam pads to give them a lift off the the page. It looks better in real life than in the photo - Honest! Click on the photos to have a closer look. Thank you for visiting my blog, Fiona :)

Christmas Tree With Sparkles

2009-08-19T13:46:00.006+10:00

This is the New Hero Arts stamp I have just purchased.

I just love the swirls of the tree. I have used Teal Ink Pad to colour the trees in and added some sparkles, which are a bit hard to see. I will have to get a better camera! You can click on the photo to get a closer look at them. :)

Anyway, these are my first cards on my blog, hope you like them?

Thank you for visiting my blog, Fiona :)
