Just wanted to let people know that I haven't forgotten about you or my blog.  My idea was to put something up every few days but this weekend Nick and I are moving  to a house instead of a unit.  So haven't had much of a chance to do anything as my cutting machines and craft supplies are all packed.  Give me a week and i will start putting up some more creations.

This is our new home for the time being.  

Spent the weekend in Melbourne with my sisters family to celebrate my nephews 18th.  Had a lovely time with my sister we both do crafts.  She does some lovely bead work of which I might showcase some of her work here in the next few weeks.

Here are some of the cards I have made.  I like making both cards and 3D projects.

Made for a birthday invitation

Daughter birthday card

Made for a swap - nursery rhymes 

Sympathy card one of the people I worked with as his dad passed away. 

Daughters Wedding

My daughter was married in November 2013.

She looked lovely and people came from all over the place as she has family in several states.

Card I made for my Daughters Wedding the files is an Amanda Davis file.

Cutting the cake

Today I have been playing with Photoshop and learning to put a watermark into my images. My husband also showed me how to have a watermark do into them quickly and automatically just just the click of a button.  
Some of (if not all the images) that I have posted today have been posted before.  I have now added a watermark to them all.  
As time goes by and I learn more I hope to put up tutorials on some of the projects I create.  Eventually I would like to do videos as well.  The videos I will need to play with the tutorials on the other hand I can do without a problem. 

Carousel IS a Kat's Creation file. I made this for a lady that was looking for something special and different to give to someone.  She was looking for something that she wouldn't find anywhere else

This was a mini challenge that I wend into.  We had to message the site owner and she sent us the file.  We had 24 hours in which to make it.  Being in Australia I had less time.  So I decided to do foiling.   I printed the images I wanted to foil and then put them through my laminator (as I don't have a foiler)then thought that it just needs some flowers.  This was all done in about 1 hour after I finished work so that I could meet the 24 hour deadline

This is a SVG Attic file or Snapdragon Snippets of which I purchased from the Silhouette online store.  It is also available from http://www.svgattic.com  

I made this for my dads birthday.  Dad being a person that has everything I wanted something that was a bit different and would fit into some of the things he collects.  Dad collects Fire Engines.

this is showing a few different angles of this creation.  I created this using Kat's Creations file.  I was asked to make a project to put into one of the local agricultural.  There wasn't a section for Papercrafts that this would fit into as its not a card or a scrapbooking page so it went into the Miscellaneous section.   I was very happy as I won a 1st prize in the section.  I didn't think I would get anything.

This is another of SVG Attic files.  You can get this one from http://www.svgattic.com 

 This project was for the file release.  It is a Kat's Creations file.  

I was asked to created a template for a wedding card of which she wanted a tree of life - Yggdrasil and this is what I came up with.  It was an image I found on the new of which I traced.   

3D Cowboy Boot

Was asked if I could do a cowboy boot for table centers and gift bags to give guests for an engagement.  I found this in the Silhouette online store.  Its a file by SnapDragon Snippets of SVG Attic.  

It is made is 2 sizes the lager one for table centers and the smaller one for little gift bags for guests.

Wishing Well Cowboy Boot.

Was asked if I could make 150 wishing wells for an engagement party that was having a country and western theme.
  

Not sure where the cowboy boot shape came from however the words where supplied by the person that asked me to make them for her.

Little Scraps of Heaven Designs Mini  Challenge  

The Design Team over at LSHD put out a challenge last night saying who wanted to be part of the challenge.  Tricia From LSHD send the file after we said we where interested.  The Challenge had a time frame of 2 days yesterday and today USA time.  This is what I came up with.

I to put floppy bear on little gift bag.  Great for any party gift bag.

The File was cut in a Black Cat Cougar using Funtime software.

SVG Attic Creations

Some of the SVG Attic creations. The files can be purchased from
SVG Attic 
The files is also available in the Silhouette Store if you use a Silhouette which is where I purchased it from.  Although it would be good to have in SVG format to cut on my Black Cat Cougar (AKA FRED).

Fire Engine Box Card

This was made for my dad's birthday he has a lovely collection of Fire Engines that he use to take to displays for charity.  

My Creations 

These creations are made with Kat's Card Creations. You can purchase these files and more are available here Kats Card Creations Shop

Glass House 

The Glasshouse was created and entered into a local show, that I was asked to enter a piece of my work into. As there wasn't a category for paper-craft other than cards or scrapbooking it was entered into a miscellaneous section as it didn't fit into the other other section due to being 3D paper crafting. It won 1st prize and  I was surprised and please as I have never won anything.

Angel Tealight holder -

  (*please note only use the battery operated tealights as this is made of paper).

Carousel 

The carousel is on a rotating base,  It would work really well if you had a round music turntable underneath it.

The creations that I make are either a a project of a challenge or someone has asked if I can make a project for them for a birthday or as a gift.
