Decoupage and images that have been laying around

These are mostly decoupage and cut images that have been languishing in a draw for a very long time. I am making an effort to tidy up my craft room as my daughter is coming to visit and she has not been here for quite few years, although when sh is in the UK we do meet up for meals at various restaurants. Hope you like them

A few more.

These are the last that I have done for the present, I am not doing any today as I am feeling sorry for myself as I have had several teeth out, the anaesthetic has worn off and I am longing for a nice drink, but I will continue to sip my water for another couple of hours doing what I am told!!!!

The backing paper for the balloon card is just a sheet of computer that I had to protect my desktop when I was inking colour onto the flowers I was making, I thought it looked usable so did not scrap it.

These are all made from the small card pads that are on sale on Joanna Sheen's web site.

From the odd box and an order

One for the box this Christmas, a traditional Moorhead

This one is  for a retiring warden and the request was 'make it as colourful and flowery as possible' but it is not easy to see if papers match or contrast well in the evening light now that we have these economy bulbs or is it just my eyes?

The snow couple are also for the 'box. 

Since finishing having classes for 8 years I find that I have accumulated a lot of prepared cards with layers for matting, pre-cut papers, decoupage and all sots of bits and pieces  left over from those days.  Much of  it I do not really have the temptation to use now.  I have put it all into a box with the intention of using the bits and pieces on a few cards slowly between others that I am keener on, well 'waste not want not' is what my mother told me ( I didn't do every thing she told me) but I have started, the two diamond cards are the first out of this box.

Some for the men

It is over a month since I made any cards now the "men" are looming into view for birthdays. These are a decoupage mixture.

I have been using digitals and colouring with my promarkers, its a while since I had them out and used my Rubber Stamps to make a few mens cards.
