Medallion Wedding

Hello,

I hope you are all enjoying not having to do the school run! I am certainly enjoying the rest from it!

So, I was asked to make a wedding card for a friend who's sister is getting married soon, now I just love the Medallion (p 60) anyway, but it just sooo perfect for wedding cards.

I used Mellow Moss as a base colour on some pearlescent card from my stash, as this was a similar colour to the bridesmaid dresses. Now unfortunately I didn't have the Mellow Moss stamp pad or even the spot, just the pen and re-inker so I was a bit worried how I would be able to huff all over such a large stamp if I used the pen and then I had an idea! (it's OK I was sitting down, lol) I put a couple of drops of the re-inker (p72 & 73) into a lid from some SU! buttons and added a couple of drops of white shimmer paint (mini p 21), I then used a sponge dauber to apply the paint directly to the stamp, hey presto! the colour you need without the pad, I was trilled with the results it gave me too,

Here is the inside with a slightly more vintage look, ie: not perfect, on purpose I hasten to add! sentiment from a sab set, no longer available,

And here is the arty angle, ribbon is Kraft taffeta (p 87) topped with a yummy Filigree brad (p 85) in the centre of which is a gem brad (p 86)

Well, that's all from me today, don't forget to let me know what you think :-) and if you need a mini catalogue email me sarah-janerae@sky.com and I will pop one in the post to you asap.

I have another busy day ahead, getting the house ready for the builders :-)

Enjoy your day too,

Dads Birthday

Hello,

Have you got any snow yet?? we had a good flurry yesterday but nothing laid :0( here's hoping soon, but maybe next week as we are going to Essex on Sunday for the day to visit friends and do the Christmas thing, I am so looking forward to it! Anyways, I am going to do the tutorial today for the couple of lovely peeps who asked for the measurements of yesterdays milk carton, I may even get it posted today??

For now though I have a card I made for my dad, it was his birthday on the 10th of Dec but I have been hoping he may have had it before I posted here, but no not yet! I sent it in plenty of time too, but in Spain apparently there has been 2 bank Holidays this last week! I hope that's all it is, delayed, as his birthday present and Christmas presents for him and his partner, Shirley, were all in there!!! eeeek!!

Anyways, I made this one loosely based on the new years card we made at convention, stamps used were New Years Celebration, Occasional Greetings and Yummy, Glossy Accents all over the bottle. Basic Grey Card base with Night of Navy and Bashful Blue card accents.

Well, I hope you like and I really hope it gets to him!!! soon would be nice too (but anytime would do!!)

Hopefully back later,

Keep Warm, Sarah-Jane xxx

Another Wedding Card

Morning,
It's lovely here, just deciding what to do today with our two (Josh is at a friends for a sleepover) before they start WW3 !

Thought I would quickly pop on and post the Wedding card I mentioned yesterday, I used the same Love Stories scrapping kit by SU! (Loving this kit and I've still got loads, woo!)

Sorry it's short and sweet today,

Hope you all have a good day,

Hugs Sarah-Jane xx
