Football Supporter

And here is the second of two new release stamps from Jellypark this fortnight and I've teamed it up (see what I did there?!) with a Crafts U Print sheet from the same image from Claire!

First up is the new release image - Football Supporter with Scarf - and he's been coloured with Promarker.  I asked Jacob what colours to use and he suggested Manchester United!  The image has been added with foam pads and I've made the background pitches with offcuts of card.  The smaller pitches are offcuts from making Christmas wordbooks and they are from the Christmas Tree wordbook download from Funky Hand (I don't like to throw anything away that I think I'll be able to use!)

I made the bunting ages ago for a different project and in the end decided I wasn't going to use it so it sat on my table!  So now I've used it up!

The card below is the same image but this time its in the form of a decoupage sheet and is available to buy from Crafts U Print.  I printed the sheet as A5 size so I got two on the A4 card as I didn't want them too big and then cut it out, layering it up with foam pads.  The football pitch background comes with the kit and I've just added a plain green background so that it fits onto an A6 sized card.  You can buy this sheet HERE for 80p!

A Gift For You!

As promised, here is the second topper from the set I blogged on Thursday.  It's a pre-printed topper taken from an original watercolour drawing by Claire Kaye - the illustrator behind Jellypark.  Claire is an exclusive designer on Crafts U Print and I'm also a cardmaker on there and you can buy the topper HERE!  And for only 80p too!

Because the topper is pre coloured I've simply added stickles around the edge and to parts of the image - really quick and easy to make a card with such a cute image!

The paper is from Dovecraft - Sugar and Spice 6x6 stack and I thought the pretty border would make a nice feature!  So its not overloaded, I've used vellum for layering and cut them with my X Cut fancy dies although I followed the There She Goes sketch and made the bottom panel into a circle at the top.

Some ribbon from my stash and two pearls (to hide the glue under the vellum!) and the card is complete!

Sweet Fairy!

Following on from the post earlier today, here is another Jellypark topper sheet that I bought from Crafts U Print.  Again the toppers are pre coloured which are great for quick cards and this one also comes with the same little fairy girl but holding pink bunting.  So two pre coloured toppers (there are actually 3 of each on the A4 sheet) for only 80p!  Buy it here!!

I've layered the image and other layers onto chocolate brown card from my stash and all I've added is stickles, pearls and ribbon also from my stash.  The round glittered sentiment actually hides a join in the blue flowery paper - I hate to throw the offcuts away and will find a use for them!

The sentiment is from the same Dovecraft range as the papers - Sugar and Spice 6x6 paper pad.  I've had the pad for ages and have only used it once or twice - I bought it as it was half price in Dunelm - I tend to buy bargains and not think if I'll actually use them!! I've added some faux stitiching around the edge of the card and that's it!  Told you it was a quick and easy card to make with the pre-coloured toppers!

Cute!

I've had a few days this week where I've done lots of crafting - the boys are off school for half term and I'm off with them too.  Usually I have good intentions of crafting but never get much done for one reason or another but this week I've been on a roll!

I'm a Design Team member for Jellypark and I love Claire's images plus there is a bonus as she is also an exclusive designer on Crafts U Print where I am a cardmaker too!  So when a topper sheet popped up I just had to get it!  There are two toppers on the sheet (pre coloured and for only 80p too!) and you can buy it here.  The other card I've made which is shown with the one below will be blogged over the weekend.

All I've done is added stickles to her wings and used a Nestie to cut her out.  I've added a black dotted line around the edge and layered onto some chocolate brown card.  To help with a layout I've followed the Feeling Sketchy sketch. The papers are from Dovecraft - Sugar and Spice 6x6 pad and again I've layered onto chocolate brown card.  I've added a faux stitch around the edges and some thin organza ribbon from my stash.
