Five new cards

 I've had such fun the last few days making some new cards

Usually it takes me days or weeks to make one card

Making cards quickly may be a new habit...

I hope so!

For this card I pieced scraps and then cut out with a heart diecut.

Forever Friends The Good Life Universal Embossing Folder

for the cream vertical strip.

I made this card for my niece her new fiance.

Spellbinder's filigree square

and

the Cuttlebug, Disney embossed Heart Frame.

Double Do alphabet letters

This new Flouishes mannequin and sentiment stamp is so cute.

The background pattern pieces is a Stampin 'Up stamp

I love the subtle softness of this butterfly card.

The Marianne diecut butterfly is a favourite of mine

This little basket diecut is new to me. I love it.

Added a Marianne bird diecut and some purchased flowers.

Cuttlebug embossing folder used for the purple background.

Altered canvas for my sewing room

I made this for my sewing/craft room.

I have featured my blog name

EllenaElizabeth Makes

as if it is written on a blackboard.

I started off with a 12" x 18"canvas

that I collaged with torn off pieces of very old sheet music.

I then proceeded to layer with elements that looked and felt right(to me).

Things that mean something to me, it's a very personal work.

It's just about me.

Hubby and the kids didn't get a look in this time.

Christian references, music, sewing,

my blog name, my nick names,

year of birth, colours etc, all in a vintage theme.

I don't work quickly anymore.

It took me about 2 weeks on and off.

I used so many processes and products it is astounding to me!

Kaisercraft, Webster's Pages, Bobunny, & Studio 112 stickers and papers.

Marianne, Spellbinders, Nelli's Multi frames, Sizzlits

&

Our Daily Bread die cuts.

Tim Holtz, Our Daily Bread & JustRite stamps.

Bling & Kiddy Glitz.

Tim Holtz, Versa Color & StazOn Inks

The alphabet used for my name on the blackboard is

Sizzlits, Funky Brush.

It's my latest purchase from a facebook selling site.

I LOVE it!!!

And it's the first time I have used Sizzlits.

There's probably a lot more I can't think of now

not to mention the things I had on hand in my stash

&

can't remember where they came from

but usually Cheapie Shops.

The Our Daily Bread sentiment here was stamped over a

Stampin' Up Pattern Pieces stamp

and

cut out with Spellbinders labels 4

and distressed with the inks mentioned above.

I love the little dress stickers from Kaisecraft

I love the butterfly diecut I used here.

The coloured butterfly stickers were aged with 

Memories Mists Pale Ale

and

edged with

Versacolor Bark

I gave each butterfly a little bling centre.

I never get tired of looking at this Our Daily Bread spool and tape diecut.

Thankyou

PicMonkey

I had such fun editing my photos

to give them an even more

distressed

and

aged look.

Thankyou for looking today.

Pretty in Pink

Made this card a couple of days ago.

I just love this new silhouette die cut by

 Marianne Design Creatables, Charleston Lady.

I ran a pretty Kaiser Craft Journal Tag, English Rose Collection 

through my Cuttlebug,

mounted the lady on it & then layered onto a

Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Four.

The 3D flower & leaves LR0164 & die cut borders LR0155 are also by

Marianne Design Creatables.

I backed the cut outs with Scor-tape and sprinkled with glitter purchased from a cheapie shop.

The pink glitter card was purchased from a cheapie shop as well, in a pack of 4 with matching envelopes.

I added some green crystal stick-ons and some rose patterned ribbon from my stash.
