Shrink Plastic

These are my shrinky embellishments that I've made lately.  Really enjoyed making these as I have learnt how to make them properly.  When I first tried these they just curled up and I thought I had made a mistake until I realised you keep heating the plastic and eventually it flattens out.  Now I have the knack.  The flowers I made myself.  They have a brad in the middle of each one and the two bigger flowers I wrapped some lace around for a better effect.

This is my newest card for Craftsuprint.  Its bigger than an A5 card but not as big as an A4.  I love this design as you can add anything to it.  I put my own decoupage onto the blue background. 

Craftsuprint cards

As featured on my website for CUP.  The dalmation card is my first swing card that I have made.  It took some working out but I got there in the end.  I used my own measurements as I dont have the template.  (Think I might have to invest in one in the future) but not too bad for my first one.  The middle section you cant see properly.  I have layed two peel off dalmations in the centre to match the decoupage. 

More cup cards

I have made these two cards for each of my sons birthday  in February. My youngest son loves green so I thought the frog was perfect (he loves frogs too lol) My oldest son is into all the wrestling on tv so this was the perfect card for him. 

Baby's First Birthday Cards

These two cards are from the Craftsuprint range.  These are featured on my own personal website from CUP.  To date I have made 140 cards since last May.  I hope to have a lot more made this year. 

One Rainy Day in January

 One rainy day I was bored and found some stamps I forgot I had. So I stamped away then carefully painted them with some waterbased pencils I have.   I lined the cards with backing paper then found a coordinating colour and tore it down the centre to create the two different halfs to these cards.  I used my cuttlebug machine to create the butterflies on the top card and the bottom card cut out two flowers out using a stencil and used brads for each centre of the flowers.  These were simples cards to make but I am pleased how they have turned out. 

With this particular pre printed card I decided to add some colour to the roses using special paints. 

This card is from the Craftsuprint range.  On the butterfly I added jewels to give a lovely effect. 

My new cards - Flowers
