Telescope Cards # 2

Telescope Cards

 These are some "Telescope" cards I made.  The top card is what it looks like closed and the one below is what it looks like open.  I found the idea on Julie Davison's blog - www.juliedavison.com and printed out the instructions.

I used Spellbinder Nestabilities as I don't have the SU dies/punches.

The Nesties work exactly the same.

 I made this one a Christmas card.  So much FUN to make!  After making the first one I found myself sitting here openin and closing it, it was so much fun!

 I stamp the cream coloured card before making the card up with the brads in place.

You can make the cards for any occasion and embellish it as you like.

Wedding Card Photo # 2

Here is a slightly better photo of the wedding card in the post below.  The details are a bit more defined in this pic.

The die I used is a circle one that has tiny hearts punched out.  I've added some half pearls  and paper flowers.  I also punched out three white paper flowers using an SU punch.  They are slightly bigger than the top paper flowers and are underneath.

It's on a weird angle because it was leaning up against the windowsill so I could photograph it in the natural light, which was fading fast!

Okay, that's me for now!  Enjoy your day/evening!

Wedding Card

Here is the wedding card I made using one of the horse-shoe's I made yesterday.  (See the post below to see the horse-shoe's I made.)

I embossed a piece of card using my Swiss Dots folder and attached the horse-shoe to it.  I also added a strip of punched 'lace doily' using my MS punch.   I then attached that to the  tall white card.  

I have not stamped any words inside the card as I don't have any wedding word stamps!  White cards are a challenge to photograph and I am not 100% happy with this photo.

Thanks for visiting, hope your weekend is great!

Horseshoe's For The Bride And More!

 I made these two horse shoes using a circle die and an oval die.  I saw some for sale in a craft shop and came home and made these two.  They will end up on a wedding card when I have come up with an appropriate layout.  Any idea's, leave me a comment!

I think I prefer the one made using the circle die - the one on the left of this photo.

 When my neighbour put this seat out on the side of the road for the rubbish collection I decided I needed/wanted it!  The hat is one I decorated with flowers & then I nailed it to the seat so it doesn't blow away in the wind.  My ice skates were drying in the sun after being at the rink.  I am still deciding whether or not to paint the seat or not.  What do you think?  I don't want to paint it the usual white, green or brown, if I paint it, it has to be something a bit funkier than those colours! 

 Here is a small card I made recently using the SU bird punch and oval die.

 Here is Romeo-Valentino lounging in the sun one day!  There really isn't enough room for him up there on the climbing tree so he is holding on to the pole with his paw!  We are having such a mild sunny winter and both cats are loving the sun - like me!

 Is this the face of innocence or what?!  I think he has expressive eyes - but then I am biased being his "Mom"!

In this photo he was watching a moth that was flying around the room!
