Cupcake Toppers

Hi all, hope you are well on this horrible damp morning.
Today's post is to show you some new items I have made. As everyone is into cupcakes at the mo, and we enjoy them also, I thought I would make some toppers.
I printed the pics, after resizing into a circle the same size as one of my nesties, and cut them out. I then mounted them onto a scalloped circle. On one side I added a cocktail stick before the picture and these are the finished articles. Any pic is possible and I have also done some of my daughter Sophie with Joey Essex who she met a couple of months ago. They can be made for absolutely any occasion.
Please leave any comments as I read them all and please check back soon to see further ideas.

 This girl with balloons is a Saturated Canary digi which I coloured in, took a pic of then resized.

 This fireman with a cat is a Crafts U Print digi design which again was coloured and then resized after taking a photo.

 These slogans were done on Word Art and the colour was changed. They could be done in any colour.

 This is my darling daughter Sophie with Joey Essex. She loved these toppers when she saw them!!

Happy crafting everyone.

Pot of Dreams moneybox

Hello everyone, hope you are having a lovely Sunday.
Today I have made something special for my daughter. She was wanting a Pot of Dreams moneybox to put savings in for Christmas. When she realised she had to smash it to get the money out she soon went off the idea so I made her something similar.  I will let you guess what the essential basic item was that I used. I then added freebie papers which I got from Summer Driggs, ribbon, gems, stickles, some hanging tags (cut from Memory Box dies) and a digi image from Saturated Canary. Sophie has a pink bedroom so I wanted to stick to that colour and make it very girly for her. The lid is glued on so that she isnt tempted to dip in whilst saving and we will probably cut a hole in the bottom once its full and then add another plastic cap so that she can reuse it!

Here is a view of the back...

I hope you have enjoyed looking at this different item. Please leave any comments as it would be good to hear what people think about it.

Happy crafting everyone, see you soon

Saturated Canary Baby Girl

Hello all, hope you are managing to keep warm on this cold day. Today's card is for a new baby girl. The image is from Saturated Canary and as soon as I saw it I knew it was one that needed to be in my collection!!!!

I used a square scalloped card and mat and layered with some papers from a Docrafts pack (sorry I cant remember the name of it!). I used a scalloped oval nestie to mat the picture on and finished with card candy and a greeting which includes the baby's name, weight and date of birth. I coloured the digi image with Promarkers.

Please feel free to leave any comments and I look forward to you visiting again soon.

Happy crafting
