If you are then you will love Lisa Horton’s new die set featuring a dog,cat and rabbit . I loved making these cards. A little ink through the dies adds a great look. I added some glossy accents to the nose.

Last of Kerrys cards this morning, great idea for a melted snowman card. Some simple inking and a sentiment again from Phil Martin. Snowman die is from Spellbinders.

Happy Sunday to you, today’s card is another of Kerrys Christmas cards from her club class.

It uses the Lisa Horton Solar Circles die as a background but in a completely different way. It looks great , I love these background dies they are so versatile and there are more featuring in Lisa’s new release coming soon. Kerry has added a Spellbinders Snowman and another Phil Martin sentiment to complete the card.

Hopefully you will be doing some crafting today, I just finished my gardening jobs so I can craft now guilt free!!

Jackie

Good morning , today I am showing the first of Kerrys Christmas she taught this week. She used Spellbinders dies and the sentiment is from Phil Martin

Back tomorrow with another idea . Can’t believe we will be half way through the year in a couple of weeks!! Have you started your cards yet??

Have a fab weekend, I’m working on my Fathers Day card for next Sunday. Hope you get time to fit some crafting in.
