Hi everyone,
Well it's definitely been a while. I have had a total break from crafting but I am back today celebrating my Nieces wedding!
I decided to impress by doing my first ever exploding box card. The box is 4" x 4" and as I was taking it on a plane I decided to make an extra box on my laser (Xtool M1) out of plywood.
I am hoping to get back to my old self and get crafting again so please look out for more of my creations.

Hi Everyone,
This week I have made a card using Zuri designs moulds and also my M1 laser.
Using my treadplate embossing folder I got to work making a metal effect base.
I cuts the cogs, numbers and lettering from 3mm plywood which I then painted using acrylics on also added a metallic effect using my inka gold waxes.
I used air dry clay and the Zuri mould faces of darkness and also the riveted metal plate from Katy sue designs.
Again I painted them with acrylics and inka gold wax.
I finished the card with a motorbike image I purchased from Etsy.com.
