Jackie Mooney's August 21st Workshop

I am very late posting about this workshop but that doesn't mean I enjoyed it any less than I normally do!

Once again Jackie didn't disappoint with the 6 fabulous cards she had come up with for us to do!!!

Here are the gorgeous creations!

I love gorjuss girl stamps & this one was such a cutie!!

This one is different to how Jackie done it but that is because I made a mistake & had to compromise. You can see how it should look here on Jackie's blog.

The papers on this were gorgeous.

Again I was too busy chit chatting & not listening to the teacher lol so I had to compromise again! You can see the way it should have looked on Jackie's blog.

A great card for a man & I always struggle with male themed cards but not with Jackie about I don't!!

A very luxurious card this one was! Jackie is enjoying playing with her Cricut which means we get fabby new projects every month now!!

This was my fave (& probably everyone else who was there) because of those teenie tiny pencils made from cocktail sticks!! Isn't that just the best idea ever & then there is that Sassy Cheryl image that is just too cute!!

Looking forward to the September workshop now!!!

Wedding LO

I've been wanting to get into scrap booking more & decided when I was out in my craft room today to try get another LO done!

The flowers were made using a mix of crepe paper, tulle & just plain white paper!!

I used my heat gun again to melt the black ribbon!

I love the effect this gives.

The "Mr & Mrs" & the flourishes were again cut using my eCraft!!

LOTV Christening Card

This was a card for an order. I just love this LOTV stamp.

The flourishes were cut using my eCraft & all the pink card was glittered using the Crafters Companion Glitter Spray. The image was coloured using ProMarkers.

These are the combos I used

Mulberry, Fushia & Blossom

Blush & Soft Peach

Forest Green & Pear Green

Arctic Blue & Powder Blue

Gold & Canary.

Button Cards

So my crafty friend Ang who is part of the facebook group that I'm in set a challenge for a card swap this month & it was a brilliant challenge!

We had to use buttons as the main focus of the card so no using as embellishments.

Ang posted this link to give us some inspiration & I love the technique.

This is what I came up with.

I used my eCraft & MTC to cut out the circles & rings to make the giant button.

I tore paper to make the "hills" & used ProMarkers to colour the sky & add some birds. I stamped the sentiment which is a from a Hero Arts set in Distress ink & added some Glamour Dust to the tops of the hills!!

I made a second card for the challenge because I was out in my craft room making a card for an order & had a brain wave!

this is what I came up with

The buttons are handmade again!

I used my heat tool to melt the organza ribbon, it looks fantastic. I got the idea from here. This lady will be teaching at the GBCE which I will be going to on the 30th of September & I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Corner Bookmark.

I have seen these bookmarks on a few blogs & thought they were really pretty

& a fantastic idea so I decides to give it a bash myself!

I used some of my fave 7 Gypsies papers & a page from an old copy of David Copperfield & added a flower made by layering different petals, some ribbon loops & a make your own brad!

I have plan's to make a special one for my Twilight books!
