Love Larry for a birthday card

I've just made this card for the Allsorts challenge 17, which, this week, is for something for the boys card. I admit that is not your conventional card but I've never let that bother me. He's made using the Love Larry stamp from 'I Brake for Stamps' which can be seen here.

Isn't he a total hoot.

A Very Special Birthday Card

This card is for my grand daughter. It's a very special card this year as the one that I made for her last year was lost in the post. This year I am sending it from Italy so I really do hope that it stands some chance of arriving.

The tulips are back

Many of you have seen this tulip stamp before and it's one

of my favourites as it's so versitile. I've chosen to pair it with some of the craft fairy blooms and a button with some ribbon.

Blooms and hand drawn flowers

As I said earlier on today I've found my calligraphy pens again and I've been creating. This is the first of my creations. I made the card with the calligraphy and art and graphic pens from Kuretake and paired them up with some of the Craft Fairy blooms and these are the results.

I really enjoyed making these and if you come to my stand at Ally Pally, I'll show you how to do them.

A new Calligraphy flower design

About time too I hear you cry. The calligraphy pens have been sadly neglected for a while but I have them out and I' on a roll.

Christmas in July

Well. why not. Everyone says that Christmas is starting earlier and earlier so we may as well start now. Cute Card Thursday is running this challenge. So I simply can't resist.

This little gem of a stamp will have your friends howling with laughter so please enjoy.

Santa stamp can be found here on the Craft Fairy site.
