Freebie Saturday

Morning everyone, as you know I've been spending some time designing new sheets  for card makers which will be going into my homeprint studio etc.  This week I've designed a backing sheet and sentiment sheet for you all.  I have designed for the DIY people we all know and hope these will prove useful to you. 

Wishing you all a happy creative weekend.

Whoops!

Where does time go?  Sorry I haven't popped in for a while,  I'm still about but not able to sit at the computer for as long as I used to as my back has been playing up. :-((  I have managed to make a few cards recently and thought you might like to see one.  Here is the card I made for my husbands birthday. 

I hope to get some new sheets designed soon for you all and will upload them as soon as they're done.  Have a nice weekend everyone and lets hope this lovely sunshines stays for the weekend. 

At Last!

I've had time to actually make some cards here's one I've made using one of my design sheets.

This card is now in my Etsy shop and is my first item!  I hope to add more items tomorrow and will show you them when I can.

Dirt bike cards

 Hi everyone, I thought I'd show you a couple of cards made using a dirt bike sheet I've designed.  The first card was made by Marie for her grandson.  She used the backing sheet and added the topper with dimensionals, then finished the card with peeloff sentiments etc.
For the second card I used SU ink (banana and apricot ones, sorry I can't remember the exact names of the colours! ) to daub a 'ring of fire'.  I added the topper flat to the card and added the decoupage bike for dimension using 1mm foam pads.  The fibres  were from my stash.

S~on~S Denim toppers

Hi everyone, this week I've designed something a little different and if you get a moment could you leave me a comment as to whether you'd like more or less of this kind of sheet.  Thanks ever so.  I hope to post a card this afternoon that I'm making using elements from this sheet so catch you all later.  Have a wonderful weekend and I hope the weather is being kind to you wherever you are in the world.

As promised here are the cards that I've made with the above sheet, both cards were really quick to make so are ideal if you need a card quickly.
Recipe
The 1st card I cut out leaving a tiny border around the pattern and then used a corner punch.  I added this with SU dimensionals  and used 2 brads that were bought some while ago at the Lakeland store.  For the 2nd card  I cut a tag from the denim border using the SU punch and added some ribbon from stock. I then used a sakura crystal pen to add a dotted corner on the top of the card.

SonS cards

Hi,  hope you're all recovering from your New year celebrations and I'm sure a lot of you are like me and back to your usual routines, well at least I'm trying to get back! lol  Here are a couple of cards I made with Saturdays sheet, hope they can help with layout ideas etc. I think the cards are self explanatory, I used a 1/2" punch for the circles on the top card and added some ribbon from stock and added black peeloff strips down the side of the 2nd card backing layer.

Boats

Here are a couple of cards I've made using this weeks S ~on ~S.   The lanscape card, I used some of the backing sheet behind the frame and then put the centre piece on SU dimensionals to make it pop a bit an I also added a couple of the oars that were on the sheet.  For the portrait card, I cut the pattern from the smaller background piece that was with the toppers and decoupaged the boat onto the plain topper.  I'd made the card I think the border would look nice if I'd edged the border with some black ink.  Maybe next time! lol

DIY cards

Here we are as promised.  This week I've made 2 cards using yesterdays  sheet as the thankyou card was made so quickly! lol  Here's how I did them.

Birthday card
I used an oval template that I made from another piece of card and sponged this using whispers ink for the green tones and an inspiration ink for the sky.  I then added a fine bronze colour peeloff around the oval.  The sentiment topper was made using SU  designer label punch with a peice of pearlescent green card and the small sentiment. I then attached this to the strip with SU dimensionals.
Thankyou card
I used the fiskers running water border punch on the striped paper and add the the sentiment to a peice of green card and attached with 2 SU dimensionals. 

S on S DIY decoupage

This week I've used a wonderful image but sadly cannot give credit to the artist as they're unkown.  I'm sure we all know a DIY enthusiast or perhaps have a helpful friend that needs a thankyou card for fixing your house repairs.  Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and as usual I'll post a copy of the cards I make using this sheet.

S on S Cows

Hi everyone hope you're having a great weekend and I hope this gets to you on Saturday when I've planned for it to be posted! lol  As I've ignored the men lately heres a sheet for the farmers etc in our families and I've also added 2 backing sheets for you as well as the single toppers.  With luck you'll find them useful. 

JAI #36 Sketch challenge

As promised here's my card using this weeks sheet.  I've made it to enter into Just add Inks sketch challenge.  The only addition is the ribbon which is from a hanging loop inside clothing that I cut out as I don't use the loops on hangers for all my tops!

S on S Relax

This week I'm posting 2 versions of the sheet as I like the sepia tones as well as the yellow.  Hopefully both sheets will be of some use to you all, if you have time I'd  love your comments on my sheets.  I'll be posting my card/s tomorrow as I  don't think I'll have time today. Babysitting later, which I'm looking forward to. :-)) 

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Birthday Car

September is a busy month for our family with lots of birthdays, heres  the card I've made for my BIL birthday.  The card is 5x5 cream with black shimmer brads at the side of the pyramid topper.

S on S Duck & caller

Thought I'd do a sheet for our men again. Hope you like this weeks offering. As usual click the image to enlarge before saving/printing and print on landscape A4. I hope to show you some example cards using this sheet later today. The sentiment circle fits a 1 1/2" punch.

As promised here are 2 cards I've made using this sheet. The larger card is 5x7" and the sentiment topper is cut with a 1 1/2" punch and placed on a SU scallop circle punch and then 1 3/4 " circle punch. Then I used SU dimensionals to add to the card. The ribbon is from my stash. The second card is 4x4" and I used some scraps of ds paper that I've torn and then stamped some branch images using whisper inks and then used a bit of chocolate chip sponged where the duck is sitting so that he isn't sitting in thin air! lol

S on S Circles

Thought I'd post this early as I've been late for the last couple of weeks! lol I've designed this sheet with men/boys in mind, the ones you just don't know what to do card wise! lol Hopefully this will be general enough to suit most people. I've also added a couple of cards I've made using the sheet showing how I've used it for the different age groups.

Colt card

Here you go as promised a card made using the last free sheet. I didn't realise until printing that the circle in the bottom wasn't too clear so I put a sticker over it! I layered the topper onto gold metalic card and adding it using SU dimensionals onto the card over the silver and gold zigzag peel offs that I added diagonally to the cream card.

S on S Garden scene

Just love this acrylic on canvas painting by Karinabrady and will be making a card tomorrow using the sheet I've designed. Hope you'll find the sheet useful. Have a great weekend.

S on S Play station fan

It was my son in law to be's birthday this week and he's play station mad! lol I'm pleased to say he loved his card which I've added to show you how I used this weeks sheet which I designed for him. On the sheet I've included the 2 images of the controller one with happy birthday the other blank so you can use it for any occasion. Have fun and hope you all have a great weekend.
