Mixed Media Cards for Open Studios


I have continued to make cards ready for The Open Studios event where my Studio is open to the public for two weeks and then after that by appointment. These cards are made of some to the melted plastics and mixed media techniques. See how the plastics are melted and made by clicking HERE 
See more of my cards by clicking on the page headers at the top of this blog. 

Oo La la Girls


I love these cards, Kim calls them  Oo La La Girls. The stamp is very French and you add sparkles and glitter to their ruffles and feathers! Sadly Kim has stopped card making and scrapbooking classes @The Gallery as she has got a full time job. We really miss her on a Wednesday morning. It made me create cards every week. Good luck to Kim for the future and hope she keeps papercrafting. Visit her blog HERE

I made this Tri- Folded Card with Kim,

It started off as cream card and cream papers,
which have been distressed inked, stamped and layered.
The card has then had an additional layer of embossing.

Card Box Making

I enjoyed my November 2nd Card Making Class with Kim where she showed us several techniques. One of which was how to make a box for our 3D Cards.
I then found this You tube Video when I got home
which has a great adaptable box make.

Lace Book Cards

We have been using the embossed boards with different
card shapes and patterns on at card making
on a Wednesday with Kim @The Gallery.
I decided I wanted to mix my medias up as usual
and add lace and metal to my card.
We had a lovely morning and I can see the
ideas for these 'Book' ideas are endless.
When I got home I trawled the internet and
You Tube for relevant techniques and
found a lady who has already used
these ideas, see in this video.
