Imagination Crafts: Anything Goes

Hello Lovelies! Well its November already! How did that happen? As its the first I have my post for Imagination Crafts. The theme this month is anything goes. I decided I really needed to get on with my Christmas cards and so went with that theme.




To make my card I used the following items from imagination crafts:


To make my card I first used the stencils to 'cover' A4 card with the sparkle medium and once dry I cut the panels out using the karen burniston accordion album die. Then I stamped the images, coloured and cut them out. Then I assembled the whole card.

Here's a picture of my girlies after they had been out trick or treating last night:


They really enjoyed it! They had a great day at Hornby day nursery too doing lots of fun games and crafts. Thanks to the staff for giving them such a great fun day!!!

I hope you can join us for our challenge this month!

Thanks to all you lovely people who left comments on my last post too. Shaun is still doing well - the infection seems to be under control and he is in a very good mood. He's recovered very well and I'm hoping will find his kidneys are working again soon - then maybe he'll be able to resume his place on the transplant list again.  Fingers crossed!

Have a great Saturday!

Big hugs

Rachel xx

  21. Super gorgeous swing card. Love the scenes you've created with this set and the wonderful papers & sparkles you've got going on. Just had a class with the Karen Burniston dies, and these are not real easy to use. You've done a fantastic job with your creation, and keeping all the pieces going in the proper direction, and adding in the framing pieces. Love it! TFS & Hugs
