Hunkydory Crafts goodies

Hi there, I would like to share with you some goodies that Hunkydory crafts sent me this week, I must admit it isn't a shop I ever visited, except at craft fairs, but I was totally amazed at the amount and variety of goodies on their website, I was spoilt for choice.

 I was really impressed with the quality of the For the love of Masks, I chose Beautiful Baroque Swirls, it will be perfect for both Male and female cards, you can grunge it up with pastes, pretty it up with glitter or use your inks, really good quality plastic that doesn't buckle when using really thick paste, like on my first card, and it cleans up really easy, i used a stipple brush with my ink and it never lifted once, gorgeous

for-the-love-of-masks-beautiful-baroque-swirls £3.99 product code  FTLM342

 This is the first time that I have ever used Moonstone dies, I used Pretty Poinsettia, a really good size the largest petals are 8cm and the smallest 4cm they were a pleasure to use , cut first time everytime even with thick pearl paper and they embossed with the first cut as well.So pretty and a Poinsettia is for everyday not just for Christmas, it looks totally different in the glitter card to the white.

Pretty Poinsettia £14.99 product code MSTONE040

 You can never have enough swirls can you, I particularly liked the look of these as they had little leaves on, and being frugal thought I could snip these off to put in with my flowers, they did take two passes to cut the thick pearl card but the Kraft card and Glitter card cut first time so was very pleased with that. Sumptuous swirls Product codeSDMDSS £6.79

 How often do you get carried away when making cards, adding a bit of this and that , get it finished and wham, doesn't fit the envelope anymore, these Card Boxes are just perfect, just over 6x6 and half an inch deep they are not over the top, easy to put together with a bit of double sided and wallah, 

 I used the  Beautiful baroque swirls mask then brushed  izink ink all over, layered on a bit of dotty card and added a few gems. If your selling your cards you can ask so much more for boxed cards and your not going to break the bank with these

Product code  HCB122 just £2.99 each or 2 packs for £4.98 (Bargain)

Well I hope you like what I've made with my new goodies and I certainly recommend a visit to there website https://www.hunkydorycrafts.co.uk/   and enjoy.

Just hangin' with my Gnomie

Well what a start to the year, I decided, in my wisdom, to take up the carpet in my craft room and replace it with vinyl tiles, my thoughts being it would be easier to clean.

I pulled up the first bit, and decided to work my way around the room in sections, since it is full to bursting and i had no wear to store it, first bit went great, then to move my big heavy desk in front of the window, carpet was wet through plus a lot of papers, turns out we had a leak in the roof, so it was a good job i did it . Anyway two weeks later it still hasn't dried out enough for me to carry on with the floor, so I decided to rip the wall paper off instead. Ooops, good job I've not had much DT  work on this month.

In Between this I've made a Valentines card using  Valentines-day-tomte-gnome-hearts from the amazing Faery Ink shop, I coloured him with copics, used My Minds Eye Dilly Dally paper, and a computer generated sentiment.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL

Yet another year has gone, and it's been a year full of mixed emotions.

On the plus side My Son Graduated and I got a new Grandson Sebastian all in the same month.

The theme for this months challenge is

"CLEAN AND SIMPLE"

I must say I do seem to struggle with C&S cards, they never look finished and I have to stop my self adding stuff, I may cut this one up and put a red border around it yet, he he 

I've used Love you from All dressed up stamps the sentiment was computer generated, I coloured with copics and that's it.
