Serenade by Bo Bunny

Hi there again,
I want to share with you some cards that I have made from the Bo Bunny Serenade Collection of 6x6" papers. I love the colours in this pack and think that they look elegant. The papers are a mix of green, red, black, tan and a creamy yellow. Enjoy!!




Thanks for stopping by.

Another ugly paper

Here's another sheet of our challenge paper....and the person lucky enough to take this beauty home was Debra. I can't wait to see what comes back made from this paper. When Debra first saw the paper it reminded her of owl's eyes.
If I look at it long enough it does strange things to my eyes and I feel like I am spinning....Good luck with that one, Debra. I am sure you will come up with a great idea.
Happy Crafting to you all.

Ugly paper picture

Hi,
This is a little late, but this is a photo of one of the sheets of paper in our "Ugly Paper Challenge". Brooke and I have this sheet of paper to work with in this challenge. I rather like the paper now....now that I have made my card for the challenge. I am thinking of making a second card...so that the one I have made has a mate!!
 I have also finished Rachel's quilt and I have made a cushion cover to match. Very glad that this one is finished, so now I can move onto planning a few new projects.

 This was the sunset I saw on the way to craft last night.
 Dyed buttons...this was a fun (but messy) little project. I love the watermelon coloured buttons. But they are a little hard to see in this picture.
I hope that you can fit some craft into your day.

Ugly Paper Challenge

Hi Everyone,
Today was the first Roma Farmers and Artisan's market for 2013. We were quite excited to be there and decided to give each of our lucky customers a challenge. Not just any challenge .....but an ugly paper challenge! We gave our customers a peice of paper which was to be used by the next market to make something. This could be a card, scrapbook page,etc. Brooke and I will also be taking up this challenge.
For those of you in this challenge....Enjoy the Ugly Paper Challenge!
Check back soon for some pictures!
P.S The papers were not that ugly...Scrap 4 Fun had some 12" papers that there was only one sheet of each paper and decided this was the best way to move them on to a new home....and a way to have some fun.
Happy Crafting

Scrapping and Cooking

Hi There Everyone, I made this "Upsidedown Pineapple Cake" which was very yummy. The recipe is on the back of the tin of pineapple. Now not only did I cook but I also managed to get some scrapbooking done. Surely it is going to rain!!


 Following on from my last post where I did cards for males here are some scrapbooking pages for males.


 This one I love how the lime green really makes it stand out.

Male cards...



People always ask me for ideas for male cards. So here are three very easy cards for that boy or man about the house. We have a new 6"x6" paper pad that has sporty papers in it. I used a soccer paper out of this pad and cut out the soccer balls to make the top 2 card. The background papers on these cards are also in the paper pad. I hope that these very simple ideas will help you next time you go to make a special card for the man in your life (or if you are very lucky....the men in your life).
Until next time
Happy Crafting
