A few super quick cards
Hubby brought my box home from his work this weekend as it's looking a bit bare, so today I've made some quick cards to top it up a bit. It's no good making anything particularly elaborate, as the simpler ones seem to sell better there... possibly because I don't charge as much for them! There will probably be quite a few simple cards on my blog this week while I try and fill the box up. I'm also trying to use some bits and pieces up that I've had sitting around for ages.
The first card is a bit of a cheat really! It's just a sheet of paper (from a free Kate Knight pad that came with a magazine), with some cardstock from my stash, and some gems added to the flower centres. The sentiment is a LOTV stamp from the girly A5 sheet of stamps.
Another 'cheat' card! The image is a Penny Black stickeroo, so no stamping and colouring involved... I've got quite a few of these stickers and I never use them which seems a bit daft really, so I'm going to try and use them up. The paper is a scrap from a K&Co sheet, green cardstock from my stash. Added a Craftwork Cards sentiment and some card candy.
This one is based on an old sketch from the clean & simple blog. The papers are scraps from some downloaded ones, but I'm not sure where from sorry... cardstock from my stash. The sentiment stamp is from a Papermania birthday set, nestie stars, with buttons from my stash.
Nothing very exciting but I've managed these 3, plus another one nearly finished, plus a DT card today... and we went to Pav's mum's for dinner too! Normally I sit down to make a quick card and shuffle things around and stare at papers and end up making one card, so I'm quite pleased really :o) Hope you've all had a lovely weekend!
