Card For Amy

My matey Stu asked me to make a card for his friend's little girls 1st birthday.He chose the Gorjuss girl image himself from my many...lol.I have to thank him for taking the picture too as I posted it off to him without taking any myself....dooohhh.That wasn't the first time either.....lol.
It's based on the Sugar Bowl sketch from a week or so ago,but as usual I didn't get it uploaded on time.Must try to get more organised.(hahaha) I also made a matching box to go with it.

Image - Gorjuss Girl Little Miss Attitude coloured with Copic Markers
Cardstock - Bazzill
Papers - All Doodlebug (apart from yellow bit under the name which is Imaginisce)
Letters and Rubons - Doodlebug
Border Punch - Fiskars Lace
Pearls - Kanban
Flowers,spacers,ribbon and brads - from stash

On the subject of Gorjuss girls.I ordered a Gorjuss girl canvas wrap which was to be a present from my mum for my birthday.It arrived today,but it was only a print,not a canvas.I was so looking forward to it too.I've had to email them about it,so will have to wait until I hear from them.Fingers crossed it all gets sorted soon.

**Update on Canvas***

Gorjuss girl canvas arrived safe and well this afternoon.Phewwwww

Choo Choo Train

Stu asked me if I could make a birthday card for his friend's little boy for his birthday. I used red cardstock for the base card.The PP is K&Co Kazoo Kids as is the number 2 which I matted onto green Bazzill and red card.The train image is from the Making Tracks download from NitWit Collections,which I covered with glossy accents.Matted onto green Bazzill and red card.The ticket is also from the Making Tracks collection. I matted it onto some red card and stamped the Happy Birthday and Your Special Day with Woodware clear stamps and the name was using a Studio G alphabet.I ran a strip of red card through the Cutlebug with the Happy Birthday embossing folder.I finished it off with some buttons and ribbon.
I also decided to decorate the inside with matching K&Co Kazoo Kids PP. I printed the verse off and mounted it onto green and red card again and added 4 brads. Stu drew the tracks for me and I cut them on the Craft Robo and made them into a little photo frame,to add a birthday picture to.The carriage was again from the Making Tracks collection and I again added glossy accents and stamped the sentiment with a Studio G clear stamp.
To finish it off i made a matching box and covered it with K&Co Kazoo Kids PP,tag and grand adhesion.

Red Carpet

Well I'd just like to thank everyone for their good wishes on my trip back to hospital for another wee operation. All is well so far but just a wee bit tender at my hips.I keep bumping into the kitchen worktops too as it's just at the same height...ouch!
I was to be at The Golden Jubilee Hospital for 11am and arrived at the car park entrance at 10.30ish to be greeted by 3 police officers who waved me to stop. What's the nature of the visit they asked. I'm being admitted for an operation I said,so they waved me on into the car park. When I drove in the place was full of police. Two walking towards me had braid on their hats. Not PC's for sure...lol. Couldn't find a parking space so drove round to the other side of the hospital where the hotel is and parked.As I walked up to the entrance a guy was hoovering a red carpet. Geez...they didn't have to go to all that trouble for me....pmsl. Anyway as it turned out HRH Queen Elizabeth was visiting to open the new heart and lung department. Mystery of all the police solved!
I was put into the same room I had when I had my op back in January and had a great view of the helipad. Down came the helicopter and dropped off HRH and Prince Philip,who then jumped into their Rolls Royce and were driven by the hospital windows where we were all standing and received the Royal Wave. Was tempted to wave my paper knickers but would probably have got carted off to the Tower. So that was my gossip for the day.

I've added a couple of cards that I made for Louis teachers to prevent the boredom of my previous waffle....lol. Louis finished nursery a week past on Friday,so my baby starts school in August. I can't believe it. The time has just flown by.
Both cards are using Birthday Hamish kindly got for me by Stu along with some others.I've coloured them both with my Prismacolors. The pink PP is Daisybuckets (gasp!) and the brown is Heidi Grace and has a lovely silk and flock feel. Papermania Brads (ordinary and sugar coated), Making Memories cheeky clips,flowers and Studio G sentiment stamps.

Let Me Introduce You To..........

Matilda Muffinbread.

She's one of a few new stamps I received last week from the Chichiboulie range at Stamping Bella.
I got her along with Eloise Greengrass and coloured her in with my Prismacolours. I didn't get a chance to make a card up as I was unwell. I've finally managed to finish the card. I've cut her out with my Nestabilities and mounted her onto the card with 3d foam pads.I've used the Floral Fantasy Cuttlebug embossing folder. The red flower eyelets are from Papermania. White grosgrain ribbon,white bloom with black Papermania gem centre. Woodware sentiment. Stickles applied to highlight some parts.

Also managed to do another Stamping Bella image. This is Flowahbella from the "Bella" range. I also coloured her with Prismacolors and Stickles to the flowers. She's matted onto octagon scallops cut from my pal Stu's Robo files. The background is just brown card and I scored the gridlines from my Scor-Pal which I thought looked quite effective. Papermania Blooms and jewel brads. Woodware sentiment stamped with Colorbox chalk inkpads (tangerine).

A Gift From A Friend

A very good friend of mine called Stu is a whizz with Autocad and rustled me up some lovely scalloped shapes for my Craft Robo. I'm useless at designing files for the Robo. I've only managed ever to do a couple. These can be scaled to whatever size to suit. Stu has also kindly allowed me to upload them to my blog so I can share them with other Craft Robo users who would like them.So I've made them available to download. Isn't he a star!

You can see a picture of the files and download them here.
