Viva La Divas!

Hi All

This is the first of two posts for you today otherwise you may get fed up of photies!! I have had a crafty day today and made a few quite simple cards but I was pleased with the majority. I still have this blasted cold but hoping it will go soon and I will get my mojo back!

I bought the Joanna Sheen Viva La Divas CD Rom for Christmas and have only just had a proper play with it! I have lots of toppers sitting here waiting to be made into cards but I made four…I couldn’t neglect the rest of my stash could I?! Lol! I absolutely love the sentiments on these cards…they are fab.

My first Viva La Diva card is one with the sentiment ‘Just so you know, I renewed my backseat-driving licence’. Hehe! This is so me sometimes…think it drives my hubby round the bend. I made these into easel cards so that the images were given the space they needed as they were quite large!

My second Viva La Diva card I added a few flowers and sparkle just to finish it off. The sentiment on this one says ‘Gwen was glad she had found matching gloves-digging was so much fun.’ I’d like to enter this into the Papertake Weekly challenge this week which is ‘Anything goes’. Something a bit different for the challenge this week.

My third card would be great for a couple who have been together for a while where the woman definitely wears the trousers! The sentiment on this one is ‘Caffeine first darling, then we’ll pretend to listen to each other.’ Love it! I also used a bit of my new ‘seam binding’ ribbon to this card…think I have fallen in love with this stuff today!

My final Viva la Divas card…for now…is my favourite. This is definitely me when I follow a new recipe and it goes terribly wrong! The sentiment on this one is ‘I’m sure this isn’t what the recipe meant by light and fluffy.’ Now it is half-term I must do some baking…watch this space ;) I have used Glossy Accents to highlight the mixing bowl etc. in the corner of the backing paper but the camera hasn’t picked it up. Think this image will get lots of use!

That is it for my Diva cards! Love this CD and if you’re thinking about buying it….do! You will not be disappointed. There are also bookmarks and decoupage on it which are fab too! Hope you enjoyed looking at them and watch out for my next post which will be a few of my ‘normal’ cuties!

Thanks for looking and for your comments.

Hugs
