Little bxs

So glad you could visit my blog today ,
the great Christine Harrop did a fantastic little bx the other day ,and yesterday she put a tutorial on her blog
so I thought I would try it straight away so it was in my mind ,here is her great tutorial link she has made it so simple for you to understand
http://christinescardsandcrafts.blogspot.co.uk/

So here is my attempt at least I could use some of my D-lites dies again I have put Tee tree lights in the bx

Since taking this photo which I had to do it while I had day light ,I have now put a tag on
the scent coming out of the box is lovely

Thanks for stopping by.

2nd attempt

Thanks for your lovely comments on my post yesterday It does mean allot to me ,

Today card  is another holly pond hill stamp on a swing you may be able to guess which die I used ,
well if you guest right the only problem is that the rabbit is swinging the wrong way with tree , I did use the Idea from Christine Emberson for the seat as a table at the bottom , I`m not sure of this die I don`t think I will use it that often .

Well here is the said card

6*6 card I have folded  the front it in half and stuck it down
Spellbinders swing die I did a faux shape for the mat
background paper behind the die is from a mag I thought it was right with kites on it
Coloured in with spectrum Niors tree as well

I have coloured in 1 of my sisters stamp as well will post soon

My atempt at colouring

Hi Guys
The card I made on yesterday`s blog the embossing folder was free with this months Cardmaking & Papercraft,
I thought I might try the colouring lark as you all have inspired me with your colouring I have got the spectrum nior pens but really struggle with them but Hay ho I thought I would try again ,I have struggled with the grass . I will take all comments on ways to due grass I would love to conquer this as I have loads of stamps just gathering dust ,when my sister saw this card she has given me some of her stamps to try ( as though I need them !!!!) Thought this would make a nice Mum or Easter card ????

Here it is

My card to hubby

Well I`m now doing my own dressing`s  I have a check up next week but I have to get hold of them if it gets red .
This card is not what I had  in my mind of doing  but things went that way,  I wanted to use the love stamp

here is the inside of the card

Ingredients
A4 card folded in half then die cut ,I cut another to put it on the top of the folded card  front
then went down in sizes ,I had done the love stamp on pink card first and stamped it in archiveal plum but didn`t like it so stamped it on to white card and used wow powder pink embossed then used distress ink lipstick to edge the card something I struggle with always seem to get line on it
the heart is Heartfelt Amour collection ,the flower stamp from my local craft shop when they had there sale
coloured with cosmic shimmer drawing inks ,I decided to follow the theme on the inside
