Autumn Mini Kit

Well, I've been having a sort through of some folders on my hard drive and found a few bits and pieces which haven't as yet seen the light of day! So as I'm feeling very generous today I'd thought I'd offer up a little freebie for you. This is an autumn kit I started working on a while ago and although it's not quite as full as planned, it's still a nice mini kit. The kit includes 5 papers, 3 frames and 10 graphics.
It's a commercial use kit so you can create cards and layouts for sale if you wish - please credit me and link back here if you do.

I hope you have lots of fun using it

Happy New Year

Happy New Year


I hope 2012 brings health and happiness to you all.
I've been having a break from designing recently as I've been so busy making cards and crackers and gift boxes for Christmas (nearly 60 crackers!!). I've done a few craft kits over the last day or so and a couple of cards too so will get them in my stores soon. I also plan on getting lots of freebies on here this year and posting some crafting ideas (mostly for kids to do)too.
Take care
Suz and the kids xx

Jolly Holly Day

My Jolly Holly Day kit is now available at the Arda Cards Boutique priced £3. There's loads in it and you can use it for commercial designing with no extra licences to buy and pretty simple terms (I hate wading through complicated T&C's!!)
The graphics are all hand drawn by me (except the bows, buttons and ribbons which are colourised tubes). They feature rope arms and legs and look pretty cute if I say so myself!! I can't quite decide if I like the penguin or reindeer best!!
I'm already working on a new kit, Pinky Moo!! Don't worry though, I'll be getting on with some more Christmas kits soon. I'll rustle up a little freebie for you too.
Also while I remember, I have a few graphics available on PSPTubez. Pop over and have a look at Barry's graphics - he has a good membership offer on just now.
Take Care,
Hugs

Flannel Reindeers

My daughter Nienna is doing an Enterprise at school next term and they have to make things to sell at a Christmas craft fair to raise money for a class trip. We've come up with lots of ideas and thought it would be good to try a few out. Our favourite one was these gorgeous flannel and soap reindeers.

To make them you need a flannel and bar of soap. Put the soap in the middle of the flannel and then roll the front and back corners and perch the rolls on top of the soap. Then gather up the other two corners and tie with ribbon to make the ears. We made antlers using pipe cleaners and pushed them into the top.

 Then stick on googly eyes and a pom pom nose. Theo added a bell to his reindeer and a pipe cleaner mouth.

I hope you like them as much as we do!

Jolly Holly Days Kit Sneak Peak

Morning
Well the kids and I have been busy doing some Christmasy crafts over the holidays. I'll post a photo of their absolutely gorgeous soap and flannel reindeers later (once I've charged the camera up!).
But all this Christmas preparation has really got me in the mood (we've even had the Christmas music on!!) so here's a sneak peak of my latest kit "Jolly Holly Days".

I still need to draw a few more graphics and do some papers and word art but hopefully it'll be ready for release very soon.
