For the Men

Some of the men's cards made for family this year. All are Hunkydory Toppers.

The first one is from the Pick 'n' Mix selection, called Need for Speed.

The second is Cheers To You - Birthday Beers, with Crafter's Companion Diamond Press Alpha for the letters.

The next one is an "A Life of Leisure" Deco Large called Let Your Dreams Take Flight. The lettering is Crafter's Companion. It's a set that was created for their Kinetic die sets.  

Here I have used Cheers To You - Wine With Friends, with the Diamond Press Alpha set.

This one uses Hunkydory Little Book of All Ages, with the Block Alpha set.

And finally, this one is another Pick 'n' Mix called Man Of The Match, with Julie Hickey Designs Sweet Pea Alphabet.

Thank you for popping by.

Cheers again!!

A quick share of a card for a family birthday. I really love the colours of this topper set from Hunkydory, and they make fab cards for men - and gives me a break from endless football cards. 

For the orange background, I embossed some orange core'dinations with the Sara Signature Just for Men Checkerplate folder. The letters are cut with Crafter's Companion Kinetic Alphabet, and the little embellishments were one of those cheap £1 packs from The Range (ages ago).

Happy crafting,

Cheers!!

I had a few family birthdays last week - so a few cards to share. Here's the first one.

I used a Hunkydory Pick & Mix Topper Sheet called Cheers!  All I added was silver textured card, orange and grey Core'dinations, and an offcut from a sheet of patterned card from Kanban, called Distressed Stripe.

Happy crafting.

Anyone for a beer?

Afternoon, I have been busy crafting on some messy stuff for the past four days!! It's the most inspired I have been in ages - to the point where I got so carried away, that I forgot to feed the dog this morning!! Don't worry - she's got a full belly now! I will share all that at a later date - lots of step by step stuff to sort and edit.

Anyway, a quick card to share today - this one is made using Create and Craft's Birthday Celebrations kit. Orange is not usually a colour I would reach for - but really like how this turned out. It's not complicated - but still effective.

The image on the topper is just perfect for a man's card. The matching backing card is really effective - and all I added was the die cut name (Crafter's Companion Diamond Press Block Alpha) and the buttons.

Hopefully he'll have received this today - before I plaster it all over social media.
