New freebie Card Template

Hi all, hope all my American friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving, on to Christmas now :)

Lachlan's first birthday party was wonderful... not sure how many more things could go wrong in the preparation though .... the hot water tap in the shower needed a special tool to fix after leaking solidly for two weeks, it rained so hard the patio area of Bec and Chris's house flooded which was where the party was going to be held, the tap in the kitchen split... I have never seen this before, the metal tap just split open and was spraying water out everywhere when you turned it on, the lollypops I made melted in the humidity, the jellies melted as well, the blue butter icing for the cake turned out green and curdled so we had to buy frosting from Spotlight, spent a fortune and only needed half the amount so we have a full tub of orange flavoured blue icing ready to be used! LOL , the wet dogs sat on three of the chairs we wanted to use for the visitors so were filthy... fortunately we had taken 12 chairs with us, so not so much of an issue! Steve didn't cope well with not being the center of attention and so was exceptionally loud! especially afterwards when we were all exhausted !  and.... and... well you get the idea!

After the party was over Bec gave Lachlan the remainder of the cake for a "Cake Smash" . Never heard of this before, but apparently it is becoming quite popular.... you let the child loose and then take heaps of photos!.... Lachlan had a ball .... I suggested they run a bath beforehand so it was ready when he was finished, and, bless him, once he had had enough, he just crawled off into the bathroom, leaving a little blue path behind him. Too, too cute!

isn't he just the cutest ever!

and then... got back home and no internet as we had more than used up our measly allowance so no freebie for you til today!

I have a basic Christmas card for you today, one you can add to if you wish, but will work just as is... a great way to get some mass produced cards cut and ready to go!

I embossed my writing bu using red ink and the UTEE which made it a little more substantial. This is a very fine font so cut slowly! I also added Kindy Glitz to the tree and the trunk to make them sparkle. The ribbon is a gold thread, just doesnt show up very well in the pic.

Time for a new Card Template freebie!

Hi all, hope you are enjoying your weekend wherever you are! If you live in the US, I guess you are madly preparing for Thanksgiving ? We are getting organised for Lachlan's first birthday party, I cannot believe a year has almost past since this gorgeous boy entered the world!

I have another new Card Template freebie for you today but firstly I need to answer a question posed a couple of times in comments from last weeks post. A Peacherine is a cross between a Nectarine and a Peach... has the smooth skin of a nectarine but the yellow yummy tasting flesh of a peach! I love them so am really disappointed that the only tree not to wake up from Winter is this one. In our grocery stores now you buy yellow nectarines (my peacherine) or white nectarines which are the normal nectarines. Every one in the family loves nectarines except me... I'll eat them but just would not choose one over the other. Oh well... there's always next year.

and so on to our freebie.... This is my Card Template 11. I have used a digital stamp image from Dustin Pike on the front of my card, but it lends itself to embellishing, or other digital or physical stamps.

Unfortunately the arrow is not included as it came from Shelly's Art from Paperthreads but I am sure that if you wanted to add an arrow you could find one in the basic shapes of your cutting software.

Our vege garden and a New freebie!

Yesterday was my **nd birthday LOL and I had a pretty good day! Gary and Nicholas got together and made lunch and dinner, which was a wonderful present and Stevie gave me a handmade card inside a handmade little bag :)  just perfect!

We also got outside and took heaps of pics of our vege garden and fruit trees that we have planted this year. The fruit trees have all taken off bar one, which of course happens to be my favourite fruit.. Peacherine! oh well, hopefully it will "wake up" at some stage and next year I will munching yummy fruit.

Just makes you wanna go out and pick something yummy to eat :)

and your reward for staying with me through my Gallery of eats....

Another Card Template Freebie! This is my Card Template 5. I have to say that I am over the moon with the reaction to my posting Card Template freebies... more comments than I ever received for my digital scrapbooking kits (for the most part) and reading those comments just makes my day! so THANKS to those of you that take the time to make me feel good! I appreciate it.

In my version of this card I have used a digital stamp by Shelly from Paperthreads. He is called Manny Monkey and can be found HERE .

You will also see, when you download the file, that I have rotated the mat to fit this cute little monkey! .

Card Template freebie

I have been creating Card Templates for some time now and thought I could share them with you via my Blog. Some of you may already have these but I am hoping that for most of you, you will be downloading something new. Please let me know your thoughts on my giving away these templates in the comments.

I have to begin out of sequence, in fact I will probably post  most of them out of order as it depends on whether I have finished the conversions or not :) as I am trying to offer them in as many cutter formats as possible as well as PSD files for Photoshop.

So.... we begin with Template 4. This template is one of my favourites as I really love the jigsaw pieces :) you can actually fit them together for a four piece puzzle :)  below are two examples of this card, one showing the original picture before I cut it into pieces :)

Still using Box to download as that seemed to work so well. Formats included are AI, KNK, GSD, SVG, SCAL, WPC and PSD .

Please leave a comment if you download. If you create a card frpom this Template I would love to see it and feature it on my Blog. Please use email link in sidebar to send me a pic!
