Anyway onto today and I have my card to share with you for the Christmas card club - the theme this week was a recipe - ribbon, a button, 3 brads and 1 other accessory. I chose red mesh and here is my card:
The stamp is from Imagination Crafts - I have decoupaged it up and added some 'snow' - lol!!!
I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Winter wonderland:christmasblogchallenge Holly and Ivy
C.R.A.F.T:trimmiescraftchallenge Christmas
Did you see any of the shows on Create and Craft yesterday? I saw the first two and thought they were great. Didn't see my samples but hey ho! There's more on today - here's the times:
Sunday 18 May
11.00 am2.00 pm
7.00 pm
Have a look if you get chance! Here's two more cards of mine that could be on the show:
This is very similar to the one from the tutorial the other day but this time I used sparkle medium through the mask.
This one is using the daisy decoupage stamp - I do love this stamp - its so very versatile.
I do hope you have a wonderful Sunday - I've got an early party with the girls and then I'm not sure what we're going to do - will have to wait and see.
Thanks for dropping by today and for any comments you choose to leave!
Big Hugs to you!

What lovely cards, Rachel - I love the depth you've created in the first scene... wonderful journey from the sweet robin in the foreground to the house in the background. Great texture on the poppies and a lovely pop of dimension in the last one.

Stunning cards Rachel,lovely designs.xxx
ReplyDeleteStunning cards Rachel, I especially love the Poppy one, and just knew when watching that it was yours, hugs hun xxx
ReplyDeleteAll the cards are wonderful Rachel but I do like the Christmas card best - I think it is the robin 'cos I'm a sucker for them! Your walk sounds amazing, but I do wish you had taken your camera! Even so, I can almost smell the bluebells from here!!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you Sue Pxxx
I love your snowy scene, a great card for the recipe challenge.
ReplyDeleteLorraine
This is such a pretty scene...almost as nice as the gorgeous one you described for us (from your walk). What a delight to see those Owls along with the fabulous blooms. A perfect day indeed!
ReplyDeleteGreat card...this was sure a fun challenge. You aced the brief and created a lovely card.
Hi Rachel, how lucky you were to see the baby owls, I've never seen an owl in the wild, let alone baby ones.
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, love your Christmas one, such a gorgeous image, that bow by the way is glorious. Your other cards are so pretty, what colours, love them all, hugs Kate x
All of these cards are wonderful hun. I love the Christmas card and the red mesh behind it as well as the bow gives fabulous texture. Both of your DT cards are stunning too - love the bold colours with the stencil and the softness of the daisy. I think I need to get a couple of IC's stamps when I can. Hope you have a lovely day and the next time you take that walk make sure you have your camera with you - I love bluebells and owls! Karen xx
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon Rachel,
ReplyDeleteIt is great when you can see beauty when you go off on a walk. We are so lucky we have lots of that surrounding us at all times.
I love all of your fantastic projects, every one a winner.

I love the sound of your walk Rachel, the bluebells are stunning at the moment but I would love to have seen the owls - that was so lucky, they are such shy birds - well done. Hope the back is feeling better...
ReplyDeleteI love all of your cards today, the last one is fabulous, I have recorded the shows so hope to see your lovely cards there. Hugs, Anne xx
These are gorgeous Rachel. Thank you for all your hard work in making samples for the shows.

Hi Rachel...what a clever girl you are ...loving your christmas card and that cute robin...just been to a craft fair and bought even more sparkle medium...xxxx
ReplyDeleteHi Rachael
ReplyDeleteJust replied to your next card.... All fabulous... Love the Robin...
Hugs Sylvie xx
Hi Rachel, your walk sounds idyllic ! When I was a child I walked through a huge bluebell wood and it seemed so magical to me as a child, consequently I now love to see bluebells. as they bring back my lovely childhood memories. So wished you'd taken your camera with you. Love your Christmas card, such a lovely Christmas scene. The poppy stencil is one of my many favourites and your card looks so summery. Your daisy card is very pretty. Love them all Rachel. Have a good week Hun.
