Hello................is there anyone there!!!!!!!! Well blogger has been playing silly bloggers with my posts and not sending them to reader , so last week I was feeling a little like Billy no mates. Although my posts where visible reader wasn't picking them up I didn't relalise how much we rely on it. Hopeful this post will fight its way through !
Over at Crafty Cardmakers we have a new challenge for you which has been set by the lovely and talented Jackie the theme for this fortnight is " Time " pop over to Crafty Cardmakers for all of the details
Here is my take on the them e, the first one being for the DT.
I used air dry Fimo to make a heart and then stamped with Stazon this image by Hero Arts " Timely Birds " Spellbinders dies for the Frames , my Cameo for the photo corners . The DP is Basic Grey.
I just love stamping on this air dry Fimo is so light doesn't require baking and is great for cards and scrapbooking .
I liked Jackies theme so much that and the fact my clock looked a little on the small side ! I decided to make another card, and here it is ....
My lovely Cameo helped me with this great image of Big Ben , made me a little homesick making this card as I used to pass it every day on my way to work.

Hello Marie!!!
ReplyDeleteIf it isn't one thing it is another, is that not true?!!
I had problems visiting you but eventually got there and here I am viewing your beautiful cards.
The first, absolutely gorgeous, so beautiful and the second, so clean and precise and positively striking. Oops I believe there is a pun there - not intentional.
Good to have you back where you belong.
Wishes
Lynne

ReplyDeleteBoth cards are simply beautiful and I am fascinated by the Fimo heart! I've not used air dried fimo before, but I'm now going to be keeping an eye out for it next time I go craft shopping just so I can play with it too...
ReplyDeleteJackie

ReplyDeleteYES!!! It's appeared in my reader Marie and am I glad it did! I love the stamping on the fimo heart and I can't understand why your bird doesn't look sinister with a red eye, but the fact is he doesn't. The whole card has a fairy tale feel about it and I love it to bits. The second card is fabulous too in a very graphic way. Take care, Vicky x
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic card, so very different and each a classic in their own way.
