Making Cards - Ideas for a card craft beginner (Part 3)

RustyFlange

Morning ladies, hope you are all ok. I shall be catching up on blogs later on today as I know there have been lots on there the last couple of days!!

Ali.b - If you would like a blender pen then can you please PM me your address as I doubled up on my blender pens and have 2. I haven't used any of them as yet as I believe I am still using the wrong kind of ink for promarkers which is no good for blending!

Big thankyou to Craftygranny for the email full of Ben10 stuff!! It is fantastic!! I shall be able to make DS a birthday card hopefully today

OH made me up a word document last night in a grid which I need to print out today, hopefully I should be able to print it onto card and then use my circle nesties to make my own circle sentiments ... it may not work of course but if you don't try then you don't know!!

Does anyone have a retro flower punch? are they any good?

Choccy how are you hun? I always managed to miss catching up with you. Hope the boys are helping you as much as possible and you are feeling a bit better xxx ... If I can get these sentiments to work then I can do some for you was just a random idea I had and I asked him if it would work.... I told him if it didn't then it would cost me a fortune on craftwork cards to buy some ... he set to it immediately . Not printed them out yet but plan to in the next half hour or so xx

Dragonllew I left comments on your blog!! wow you have some beautiful things!

I am all caught up blog wise I think ... don't think I missed anyone, if I have then give me a poke!!

I think that making cards for males is rather hard if they are over about 9!! In fact the last 3 males that had birthdays age over 10 are all still waiting for their cards!:o
I really love that card the Wife very classy! Did you use a nestie to cut out the shape?? Getting tempted to get some of those!!

Furry you're right, that is a nestie, one of the recent 'labels' they bought out. I'm not sure if I've used it before but it seemed just right for the card.

Wow !! Can you tell me how you made this?? where did you get the backing paper?? I have 2 days to make DS a birthday card!!! I am starting to panic as last year I followed a challenge which went drastically wrong!!! it was for a swing card and I was rescued by the lovely Polly on here who made a fantastic star wars card for me to give to him!!

I made the backing paper by getting an image, putting it into my craft studio, made a tile and then muted the colours...

Got ben 10 alien force one I made still on my pc if you want it PM me your email address and I'll send it. Also got a few pics I got of Ben 10 from the internet if you want those too- well anyone really if you want anything I can email. Not sure whether I made the alien force one or someone sent it to me though- but if you have my craft studio it's easy to make backing papers

Let me know if you want it
