Little Claire Design Team






Here are pics of some of the cards I've created using the November Club Stamp from Little Claire:  I think that she is lovely and lends herself to so many different colour schemes.

Why is half term only a week?

Have  had a wonderful half term, had the opportunity to craft.  Can't believe how many Christmas cards I have already made, sure that there is still room for more.....as if I need an exuse.

Spent 2 hours this morning designing a Birthday Card for Vicky our daughter......how did she get to being 17 this fast......I must have blinked at some point........getting ready to take her back to College shortly alongside a car full of her belongings.......partings I don't like.....yes she is due home next Friday....it had been good to have her home this week though.







Posted are pics of some of my recent indulges................

Little Claire

I was so excited on Tuesday when I received the latest stamps from Little Claire - one is a Club Stamp which will be mailed to Club Members 1st November...............sorry I have to keep these very special cards under wraps for the time being............

Alongside included a final new Christmas stamp from "Little Claire" a handsome Giraffe........this stamp is available to purchase from them - have a look at the ever growing gallery.  If ever you need a little creative inspiration.....I'm sure that there will always be at least one design that says choose me to you.....




Back crafting

Sorry for not having posted recently...................hopefully today's posting might reprieve myself a little.

Since I sorted out all my craft stuff, and almost now know allish that I have.......creativity is a real treat.  I am trying to make myself use and appreciate all that I have - you know you make the purchase stash it....then forget quite what it was that made you buy such and such items.





I have a wealth of Craftwork Card products, collected over many, many craftshows.......and have decided that I need to use the products and not just ooh and aah.....................So here are some pictures taken of recently made cards using the Grey and Grape £10.00 Goodie Bag...............

Holiday

Apologies for lack of updates, currently on holiday in Cornwall.....and didn't dare pack my creative stash.......suffering from craft withdrawl at the moment......oh how satisfying double sided tape and matting and layering is...............................xxGaynor

Being creative..................or making a mess!

At last I've had a play with some Dawn Bibby spritzers..................and some of her own stamp designs.....I began by creating A4 sheets of spritzed card.......and allowing them to dry.

Next I stamped out images using the owl stamp set...................my daughter too got involved......I'm quite pleased with the results........the cards will be personlised for their recipients at at later date........


My daughter's card.................edged using Martha Stewart punches around gold embossed mirror card.  Accents, Craftwork Cards Card Candy..............love it, love it, love it............


Two further designs.............





Now to get on with some cat Christmas cards..........................xx

All year round ...........

Decided to post a couple of cards made previously using Little Claire Rainy Day Stamp - this was a club stamp......you pay just £7.50 plus £1 p + p each month to receive the latest club stamp.  Your stamp comes with a pack to immediately create a card....plenty of images including project sheets.....amazing.  A gallery is always available on their website to for further ideas.............their latest stamp already has 36 card ideas....check it out at http://www.littleclaire.co.uk/.




This month's club stamp is a person relaxing in a hammock.............................I can't take any credit for this one........it was designed by my husband...........he's even written up and produced a design template.......please let me know if you'd like the details.
