CeeCee's Gorgeous Creations

Hi everyone! Anthonette here to bring you another one of my favorite paper crafters. CeeCee (Catherine Côté) and her blog CeeCee's Creations has been one of my favorite bloggers for quite some time. I'm so happy to introduce her to you all. She hails from Canada. CeeCee a card maker, scrapbooker, and overall paper crafter. Look at these handy booklets she made for people who love to write lists.

The hot air balloon cards are stunning! I actually remember gasping when I saw them on her blog. I love her design style. GORGEOUS!

This Halloween card is amazing. The color palette is simple, but her design is fantastic.

Who doesn't love paper punch art? I love the reindeer cards CeeCee created. I like the red frames behind the reindeers too.

What a glorious holiday card. I love the shimmer.

I'm a huge fan of faux stitching. It adds such a great touch. This card is clean and simple and totally rocks the faux stitching.

This Asian-themed card is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Even my husband just made a nice comment about the card when he walked into the room.

Won't you please stop by CeeCee's blog and tell her you saw her on Inspirational. Have a good one!

Do visit her at Simply Inger and take a look at the rest of her work. You won't be disappointed and while you are there you might want to check out Inger's beautiful digi images. These are just gorgeous and Inger is very kindly giving some of them free to other crafters.

Gobsmacked!

Evening..

sorry for the title.. but there's no other word for this blog... It's so inspirational to me for one reason only - but before I tell you why, I'd like you to take a look at these cards.

As you can see, this person's cards are absolutely stunning. There is so much detail goes into each card, the flowers, the layering and the total finish of the card inside and out, is just stunning. The colouring is so nice.

So why is she inspirational to me?

Well, this young lady is called Hanna, who has the most amazing blog HERE. There are card sketches which she creates herself, and other crafts, like beading. But by the standard of her work, you simply wouldn't guess she's only 13!! Yes.. 13. I actually can't quite believe that Hanna has such an amazing talent.

Totally inspirational!

Why not nip over and say Hi.. I'm sure she'd love to hear from you.

Hi Everyone

Sorry for the lack of posts from me.. things have just been a bit hectic in life, you know how it gets!

Anyway, I have still been browsing around the web and found lots of lovely blogs to share with you.

I'll start off with THIS one, which belongs to a lovely lady called Lou. I heard back the other day that she didn't mind if I featured her, which is great because I'm sure you're gonna love it!

When I first found Lou's blog, I totally fell in love with this card. The shape is so different to what you normally find, and it's just so cute.

This was my next favourite. I love the way the elements and colouring go together - I've seen lots of folks use this stamp, but they never catch my eye like this one did.

Quite simple, but very very stylish. The colours just say Christmas don't they?

I'm sure you'll love her projects too. so why not nip over and say HI.. I'm sure Lou would love to hear from you all. The blog link is Lulu's Cardmaking.
