Make My Monday Holidays

I really dont know where the weeks go, but here we are back for another new Make My Monday Challenge, and this week Sue has chosen the theme Holidays / Vacations,

Heres my card…

Beach huts – loved them as a child and ive always wanted one but this is probably the closest I’ll get to one.. they remind me of holidays in Britain, we just dont always get the blue skies!!

My little huts were made using cardstock cut too 6cm x 4cm, The roof pitch was cut 2cm down from either side to middle of the cardstock, the flutted roof front was made using my SU scallop border punch from the new kraft cardstock.

I made the clouds using my cupcake builder punch with whisper white ink and a sponge dauber..

I spent the weekend mainly on my own crafting, my boyf was working and my Son spent the weekend on his first Cub camp and to make it more special he was invested too.. Here he is friday evening

          

I think they really had tough camping conditions with the wind, rain and thunder bless them, but if they can camp in that they can camp in anything

This is using the new ‘Worlds Greatest’ wood mounted stamp. available for £8.95. This really doesnt do the card justice as the card is a musical card which i added a cute little birthday message for my son… Musical cards are NEW to SU featured on page 160 of the new Catalogue for £5.50.

BELOW: This card is a card i made for a swap several of us demonstrators did recently to show off new products to SU:

Ive used the new ‘Papillion PotPourri’ and coordinating Elegant Butterfly Punch…  Stamp set available from £13.95 for 7 beautiful butterfly stamps.

 

The Butterflies are all heat embossed with clear powder and coloured in with an ink pad and Blender pen, Ive used the lovely new 2012 in colours for this card, Summer Starfruit, Primrose Petals and Raspberry Ripple.

Dont forget to check out all the New 2012/2014 In Colours Page 152 of the NEW Annual Catalogue..

Here is another card using the New Papillion Potpourri stamp set.

As its now officially ‘Autumn’ I will also show you the wreath i made using the New Autumn Accents Die and the gorgeous Tulle Ribbon..

I covered my ring with the NEW Tulle Ribbon, Tulle Ribbon £6.25 for a 9mtr Roll.. I’ve then cut and embossed some leaves with the new Woodgrain embossing folder, some I stamped with the ‘En Francais’ and Woodgrain Large Stamps, Ive cut a few out in Hessian fabric, some in plain Card stock, all to give different textures and the feeling of Autumn, the best bit about this wreath it can come out year on year.. it now has pride of place on my entrance door.
