Diamond Wedding

Firstly I would like to wish my Aunty and Uncle who have been married for 60 years can you imagine it what a great journey and tales they must have. Secondly I would like to say hello and thank you to everyone who visits me and leave such lovely comments, am I mad or what as I like the ones that bring you back down to earth too. I made this car for my Aunt and Uncle I didn't see them open it so I hope they liked it. I am either getting very tight (not spending any money) or I have got too much stuff so I used this Ribbon that I have had for months and the heart doiley is at least 2 years old just trying to remember when Dawn Bibby brought out these tiny Peel-offs out,  usually I steer clear of white on white but I came across this lady who inspired me enough to try it I hope she doesn't mine me taking this inspiration her name is Chrissey Stokes so here is my take on it:


I have used
Nellie Snellen's Heart Dies
Spellbinder's flower Dies
Cheery Lynn Dies
Peel offs
Gems
Ribbon and card from stash

and this is where I have been inspired:

Minnie Mouse

This is one of the cards that has been keeping me busy I was asked for a card with Minnie Mouse on by my friend at work she thinks she's setting me challenges :) after I sort of went eeek I remembered my dust covered Cricut sitting in my cupboard (along with with all it's sister stuff), No problem says I then she says can you put this on it & that still no problem and the best part I didn't have to go running out to buy stuff as it was all in my stash and I darn t put an age on it either just that it's over a year! so here is what I came up with.

Inside (this is an Easel card)




For this card I have used:
Mickey Mouse and Friends Cricut cartridge
Silver Mirri
Card Candi from Craftwork cards
Ribbon from Mai flowers
Computer words
Spellbinders circle Die
DP from Docrafts.

This is where I have been inspired:

Minnie Magnets

Hello everyone I hope you are all keeping well thank you for all your lovely comments they are very welcoming, sorry I haven't been around just lately but I had some commissioned work to do and it was a little time consuming and I still have one or two left to do. I will share some of my favorites over the next few days, I will start with a couple (7) of magnets of different little girls that was a little challenging but well worth it.



For these I used
The smallest Oval from the Grand Nestabilities
Spellbinders lacy oval
Pearls from Hobby House.
This is where I've been inspired:
