Butterfly Brights Freebie

The weather might be a bit dismal but the same can't be said for todays Freebie.  In fact I think I should warn you to put on your sunglasses before you look at this set of Butterfly Brights, after all who said that Autumn has to be all browns, oranges and yellows.  Todays Freebie is all about making you smile, and making those who you share them with, either in scrapbooking form or card making form, smile too.  Life is to short to be conventional all the time.

Butterfly Brights has been split into two downloads, as the papers by themselves are quite big and I thought it would be easier for those with a slower connection speed to download the whole kit this way.  In the first download you will get four colourful Butterflies, and four matching Tags, both in jpeg and png file formats. In the second download you will get the four matching papers, A5 size in jpeg format. Just click on the links below to be taken to the download site.

DOWNLOAD ONE - Butterflies and Tags

DOWNLOAD TWO - Papers

Have fun crafting,

Alien Fion Freebie

In Space no one can hear you complain about having a bad hair day!!!

This is it, there's no more space left in the corner, we have been officially over run by beings from other planets.  Meet Alien Fion, who did her hair especially for today, and is not happy that it has gone all frizzy and fly-away.

As with Alien Bob and Alien Sid, Alien Fion comes to you in two versions, a nicely colourful image and a digi stamp for you to colour.  The images come in both jpeg and png format, and Fion also brings two of her very own backing papers for you, both A5 jpegs. Click the image above to download this file.

Hopefully there will be no more other wordly visits to the Crafty Corner, as it's getting slightly cramped in here, but you never know, the 'Truth is out There'.

Have a great weekend all,

Alien Sid Freebie

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's just Alien Sid!!

I told you that Alien Bob had a few friends, and look who has dropped in to see you all, it's that purple dude from outer space, Alien Sid.

As with Alien Bob, his good friend Sid, comes to you in two versions, a nicely colourful image and a digi stamp for you to colour.  The images come in both jpeg and png format, and Sid also brings two of his very own backing papers for you, both A5 jpegs. Click the image above to download this file.

Not only that but Alien Sid brought a special gift for you all,  three toppers, each in jpeg and png formats, and a decoupage sheet of toppers for you to print out.  These would look great on cards and scrapbook pages, and go nicely with Alien Sid's backing papers.  Click the images below to download this file.

I wonder if the Aliens are trying to take over the whole of Crafty Corner, I suppose time can only tell.  Check back often to see if you can spot any more Out Of This World goings on.

Alien Bob Freebie

Run For Your Lives!!!!  

The Aliens are coming, and boy do they look scary!!! 

No, it's okay, come out from behind the sofa, it's only Alien Bob, and he doesn't look that scary at all, in fact looking at his strange little smile I am sure he really wants to be friends.

Alien Bob, comes to you in two versions, a nicely colourful image and a digi stamp for you to colour.  The images come in both jpeg and png format, and Bob also brings two of his very own backing papers for you, both A5 jpegs.

Some more of Bob's friends might be invading my crafty corner this week, so keep your eyes peeled for strange occurrences in the future.

Happy Crafting,

Stitched Just For You

Hi all, yesterday I went out to visit 'Pondskipper Crafts' in Peterborough, and had a great time looking through all the crafty things.  I was lucky enough to come across a set of unmounted stamps by 'Creative Expressions', that I had loved when I saw it on 'Create and Craft' on TV. The stamps come on a rubber sheet and are from the U-Mount series, and this set is called 'Stitches'.
When I got home I mounted the rubber sheet onto 'EZ Mount', and carefully cut out the images.
For this card I used a large corner stamp from the set, the stamps measures just over 11.5 cm x 12 cm, and is a lovely size.
I stamped out the image using a 'Memento - Tuxedo Black' inkpad and then coloured in using promarkers, but decided to limit myself to three colours for the actual stamp.  The colours I chose were Burnt Orange, Olive Green and Aubergine. I did use the colour Cool Grey 1 to shadow around the image, but everything else was coloured with the other three.  I then matted the image onto a deep purple paper and then onto a lovely bronze mirri board, placing the final topper by foam tape to raise it, onto a 15.5 cm square card.  I then did fake stitching around the outside of the card with a black pen, to blend with the stitched effect of the rubber stamp.
The greeting was from a set of 'Fairy Doodles' clear rubber stamps by 'buzzcraft', which was stamped and then matted and mounted on foam tape.
I liked making this card very much, and really loved the effect of using the three colours, I hope you all like it to.

'Til next time, happy crafting,

Secret Time...  When I was at Pondskipper I was told a little secret, on the 16th October, Pondskipper with be unveiling their very first craft collection on the 'Create and Craft' tv shopping channel , they are needless to say very excited about this and I really wish them well.  They gave me a sneaky peak at what they were going to show, and it was lovely, so remember to put the date in your crafty diary.

George and a Word to the Wise Freebie

So I maybe getting carried away with this freebie lark, I admit it, but I am just enjoying creating things to darn much to stop it seems.
Though I must admit I was very much encouraged by some really fantastic comments left on my blog and on the 4share download site.  It does mean so much to hear how people are enjoying my graphics. So today I have a little gift for you all.
George the Owl, as anyone who has read my blog knows, is my most popular download to date, and just because I felt like it I made these two bookmarks.  The bookmarks are for you to cut out, they come with a front and a back, that you just have to stick together.  One of the backs is plain and the other has a Nursery Rhyme written on it, which sums George up quite nicely. You can size the bookmarks to suit yourself, and if you have a lamenator, they look really cool wrapped in plastic!!! 

That's all for now folks,

Happy Crafting,

Who Let The Dogs In? Freebie

Okay, the weekend is nearly upon us once more, the nights are beginning to draw in and the spookiness of October 31st is ever closer. I have noticed a large amount of scary freebies around at the moment, ghouls and ghosties and all manner of spooky creations litter the freebie pages.  All except mine that is, typical that I am still offering cute and cuddly.

Today I am giving you an unspecified breed of dog in three different colours, Brown, Spotty and White.  In the file you download will be three pngs, and three jpegs of the dogs, the white jpeg is of course for you to colour in if you so wish.  To download just click on the image to be taken to the download site.

Priscilla Update:

Alas the news is not good, in fact I don't think it could be any worse, poor Priscilla my laptop of a few days is no more.  After being kept by 'Mesh Computers' after they agreed to send out a new laptop to replace her, it turns out that all the laptops like Priscilla have the same fault. 

'Mesh' were kind enough to ring and say that they didn't want to send out a laptop with that same problem and that the only thing they could do was offer a refund. 

So after over three months of waiting for my laptop, then it being sent back with a fault, returned to me still with the same fault, sent back to be told it was my fault I had done something to it.  To be then told that they would replace it for all my troubles, and now the replacement has the same fault, so have your money back!!!

Not straight away of course, after having our money for around four months now, it will still take them up to ten working days to sort out the return of it, upon querying this length of time, my husband was told that we wasn't the only one waiting for a refund!!! 

Of that my dear 'Mesh Computers' I have no doubt.

So that is it, the sad little saga of 'Priscilla, Queen of the Laptops' has ended, not with a fanfair, but instead are rather quiet sigh, I bet you are all glad it's finally over.

Till next time, enjoy the doggies, have a great weekend.
