Busy Hands!

I've had a busy weekend and made some cards!  Finally Spring has arrived and the weather ha been gorjuss.  Sunny, warm and just so nice.  We've had a very wet and windy Spring, but this weekend has been a stunner!  Here are the cards I have made, so far!

The black card has been heat embossed with some very sparkly gold embossing powder, not that you can see the sparkle here!

I was very lucky to come across a lady who was selling her entire stamp collection, and so I got lot's of Stampin' Up! stamp sets at really low prices.  Really low!  I have used these sets to make these cards.  I have had a blast!

I am the sort of artist who likes to have loud music on while I stamp and make cards!  There is a great music radio station here called Magic FM, and they play music from the 50's, 60's and 70's which is my era, and so I have that turned up loud while I get crafty!  I LOVE to sing and dance while I am crafting, and the music inspires me!  I do my best work when I have music playing!  It relaxes me and it makes me feel good!

I had to hand cut the larger flowers on these two cards because I don't have the punch that matches that flower.  Yet!

I water coloured some paper recently, and these flowers on the next two cards are made from that paper.  I die cut the flowers choosing colours that matched the base caards.

 The veins on the leaves on the card below, were stamped in gold and left to dry before I made them into the Poinsettia.  Thanks to Trish for the diagonal embossing folder I used to emboss the red card.

Looking at the card below, I think I will add a coloured gem to the body on the lavender butterfly.  I must of forgotten to do that after making the card!  Ooops!

Thanks to Andrea for the window frame die I have used in the card below!  I had so much fun with this card!  I stamped the snow scene on some white card, then attached the window frame so it looks as if you are inside, looking out.  Please check Andrea's blog, I get lot's of my inspiration from her creations! Sadly you can't see how sparkly the snow scene is on the card below.

 So that has been my weekend, so far!  Lot's of card making, singing, dancing and just having fun!

Thanks for dropping by, have a SUNSHINE day!  {HUGS} from me to YOU:-)
