Love Wish Dream

Well, I'm sitting here watching the rain pour down outside and wondering if Spring will ever come?? Hasn't the weather been diabolical and as for droughts and hose pipe bans...hmm!! I suppose the good thing with all this rain is at least the garden is being watered the natural way!!

Anyway, today I'm sharing the first of two cards that I made for a magazine commission but unfortunately, and something that has never happened before...two of us chose to use the same stamps and I was just one day too late and the other person got there before me. But at least now, I can get to share them with all my friends ~ I hope you like them.
The stamps are from Kanban and of course, no card is complete without a Tim Holtz die cut and I thought the weathered clock worked really well with this particular image. I added some Retro Flowers from Craftwork Cards, seam binding and a stamped quote from Lord Tim.



Time for me to do some work even though Mr Mojo is still very much in hiding. He did come out briefly to say hello and crack the whip, yesterday but shot back again quite quickly. Wish me luck for a visit today!!!
See you all soon!

Time Stands Still

Well, hello weekend!!!!

Hope you all had a lovely week and you're now looking forward to an even better weekend. Anyone got any exciting plans? Of course, a lot of people will be off to Stitches and I am very envious of all those going, especially knowing that Lord Timmie will be there. But to ease the pain, I can't wait for Tuesday to arrive because I have booked myself a place in front of the TV, QVC will be my date and I will not be moved...the Lord will have my undivided attention!!! lol.

In the meantime, a few weeks ago I was busy making cards for Craftwork Cards to take to CHA and I thought you might like to see what I made using their fabulous products, combined with a few Alterations dies...I hope you like them!!
This card uses Shabby Vintage papers, together with Retro Flowers and some of the new Candi. I then combined all these elements with some of my handmade flowers using Tim's Tattered Florals die and the gorgeous Weathered Clock die cut.
All the centres of the flowers are made entirely from the Candi and I was over the moon with how they looked.


So, that's about it from me for today...I'll be back soon with some more CHA shares and I will also be round to look at all your creations on your blogs, later tonight. I can't wait to see what you've been making.

See you soon and bye for now.

Time Is A Companion

Good Morning, everyone! How was your weekend? Mine was busy, full of crafting and I actually managed to get all my Clarity samples finished in record time. Can't wait for you all to see them on the live shows in a couple of weeks time.

So today, I can start on my next magazine project and I can't believe that I'm already working on September. It's crazy when we haven't even had summer yet, that I'm already thinking of Autumn. And next month, dare I mention that word but it will be the start of *whispers*, Christmas...eek!!

But before we even begin to think of snow, holly leaves and Christmas trees, here's todays post and yup, it's all about Tim.
What I love about using Tim's products is that you can tell a story within your card and this one is all about time and travel. And don't they all work so well with the lovely designer papers from K&Company that I had in my crafty stash? Don't you just love the Weathered Clock die? I thought it was about time to break open the package and give it a spin through the Big Shot. And it works perfectly, teamed with my fave stamp, the Umbrella Man. Can you tell I'm excited? hehe

The flower is made with Grungepaper and inked with Distress Inks and that gorgeous pin is from The Ribbon Girl, which are fast becoming my new favourite crafty items. Aren't they just stunning?




So, I really hope you liked the card as much as I loved making it!
Have a very happy Monday and a wonderful week.
See you soon.
Love Emma
