Radley suitcase card.





























My mum asked me to make a Radley suitcase card for a member of her staff who is leaving, all the templates I found were rather small, I used the template from http://www.ruthannzaroff.com/mirkwooddesigns/suitcase.htm and then had a play with the dimentions and made it larger as all the staff needed to sign it.
Paper is from Laura Ashley range.
Ribbon from stash.
Radley dog from Cricut Animal kingdom cut at 1 1/2 inches.
Tag on the front is from Stampin up Frames with a flourish.
Stamps used on the concertina fold inside were Baroque Motifs from SU with Bashful blue and Night of navy ink SU.

Here is my take on the notelet box on Sarah B www.cardoasis.blogspot.com which was then addapted by Paul @ www.craftyblogocks.blogspot.com many thanks paul for the larger dimentions.Please checkout both their blogs for some fab articles.
From Stash : card and ribbon.

Cricut uk crafters challenge!
















Here is my card for this weeks challenge on the Cricut uk crafters chat.
The challenge was to use the free download papers from Funky hands and to use 2 cricut cuts.
I have used Pooh and friends cart,  Piglet was cut at 4 1/4 and the border of flowers was cut at 5 1/4.
The lettering was from Doodletype cart cut at 3/4 in.
I used a spellbinders oval to cut the shape in the middle of the card.
I love this card shape as it folds nicely into a standard envelope.
