Ruby Wedding Vintage Style

Hello and happy Friday! It's the end of another working week and I'm hoping for a bit of a relaxing weekend to unwind and recharge.  Recently I was asked by a friend of a friend if I would make a card for a Ruby Wedding anniversary.

The brief I received was 'accents of ruby' (standard) and 'something simple'.....umm.....simple? I asked my friend if this person was familiar with my work and was told yes.....well that left me scratching my head a bit I can tell you lol!

Simple my work is not, so I must admit that for  a long while Mr Mojo went on an extended vacation whenever I thought about working on this card.  In the end my  card is not really 'simple' but I guess for me it has an air of simplicity about it.



I used the following products on my card

Summer Vibes Mini Album

I'm late sharing my make for the new challenge over at Deep Ocean Challenge blog, as I wanted to get this video made first and time and the weather have been against me.

Anyway here it is, our theme is 

Summer

so I decided to use these gorgeous papers from the 6 x 6 Summer Vibes paper pad by Simple Stories and make another mini album.

This one is quite small and fairly simple, very suitable for a beginner if that's what you're looking for this is the one for you.

For those of you who have trouble viewing videos, there are a couple of photos below.

Gothica Notebook

Oh my, I nearly missed my post for Little Darlings Rubber Stamps DT inspirations. I had scribbled all my dates down and I thought I'd put the 28th and it was the 26th, so I totally had to rush out something quick this morning, the glue isn't quite dry on this make lol!

So being short on time I used some great products to make a quick fun project.

I'd picked up a small cheap notebook (I think it cost me around £1.50 at most, it may have been less) in a supermarket stationery section, with a view to decorating it, so I grabbed that, the lovely Gothica stamp from the Saturated Canary Girl Power range by LDRS, some of my favourite Fika papers from Maja Design and some LDRS and C.C Designs dies.

This is what I made.

Gothica is coloured with my Distress Ink markers and I've inked all my edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.
I cropped Gothica a little and sprinkled some frantage araound her (it's ages since I used Frantage!)
I layered up my paper and die cuts and finished off with some pearls and seam binding from the Ribbon Girl.

I'm fairly happy with the way it turned out and it was super fast!

Hope you're all having a wonderful Sunday! :) xx
