Cutie Pie Challenge

Hi there

Today I would like to share with you a card I have made for this weeks Cutie Pie Challenge. This weeks theme is Buttons and Bows. As with my recent makes, this is again using a Hobby House Topper. I am really enjoying the process of making up cards with these at the moment as I haven't got the time to be stamping and colouring in.

This is a 6x6" card blank.

Everything is matted onto Kraft brown cardstock.

The background papers is actually Hobby House card in Snowflake Flurry and Check.

Around the topper I have stamped a snowflake stamp in Festive Berries Distress Ink.

I think this just takes away the starkness of the white topper.

I have added a red organza bow.

There are three small red buttons in the bottom right hand corner,

 and one large red button in the top left hand corner.

I would like to enter this into this weeks Cutie Pie Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by. 

I appreciate all comments you may have on my creations.

Another Hobby House

Hi There

Yes I'm afraid its another Hobby House card from me today. For this card I have tried to go a bit more shabby vintage with this, but I'm not sure it has worked.

This is a 7x5" portrait white card blank.

The papers are from a Craft Emotions paper pad.

Everything has been matted onto Kraft cardstock.

There is some cream lace wrapped around the bottom layer. 

I have added a cream doily in the top right hand corner.

A gem in each corner of the topper.

A small bow in the top right hand corner.

Thanks for stopping by. 

I appreciate all comments you may have on my creations.

Hi There

I have been trying to use some of the many toppers I have which appear to be breeding in my craft room! I don't remember buying this many :)

This card is a 7x5" card blank which I have done landscape.

The papers are from a gorgeous Craft Emotions paper pad.

The topper is one by Elisabeth Bell from The Hobby House.

Some amber gems in each corner of the topper, 

and three top left and bottom right finish the card off nicely.

Hobby House Toppers

Hi There

Recently I have been playing with some Hobby House topper designs.

This is a 6x6" card blank.

The papers are from a set by Craft Emotions. 

Everything has been matted onto Kraft cardstock.

The different sized mats were made possible by using my Perfect Layers tools.

(these have to be my favourite tool this year :) )

Three dark amber gems in the top right and bottom left corner finish the card off.

All the goodies to make this card were bought from The Stamp Pad.

I would like to enter this card into the Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday blog.
