My Mimic Creations CD Rom Designed cards for the Create and Craft POW launch today

Hi Everyone, thank you for visiting my blog. This is very exciting launch of the Mimic Creations CDRom on Create and Craft today as their pick of the week. I was very lucky to be chosen to take part in making these samples and loved every minute from putting the cd in my laptop to the memories that all the images brought back to me. I did my samples whilst on a Easter break in Lincolnshire with my Parents who have just arrived in the UK so my crafting stash was very limited, I got my material five minutes before I departed on my trip with printer, laptop and a suitcase of other crafting goodies and a few bits a pieces but mainly card kits, my two little doggies, my mothers little bird that was flown over in January, food and very few of my clothes! A very full corsa. Now back to the samples....

I used  what was sent to me and very little else, I chose the images from the cd which had so much it took me about an hour just deciding how I was going to do these cards as their were different ways of printing them out, and then envelopes to go with everything, backing papers and the different styles to cut out the images... I eventually printed out the 8 cards and then set about putting my brain cells to work, I had with me very few bits, glitter, buttons, silver roses, glues bits of ribbon, (the big one is off a birthday present I got), I did not have my cutting board with me so could not cut any shapes etc. I must say that with ease anyone, does not matter how much experience you have can make these cards, I have made these simple cards without any cutting machine or over embellishing the cards. I found that the printer ink was not used up, but then I always look at the amount of colour on the images and chose accordingly, I also find that my red is used up the most in all my craft printing so always have a spare, but in this case I did not need it.

I hope you like my cards and please if you can check out the POW on www.createandcraft.tv  you will see more of the samples and whats on the CDRom.





















Thanks for stopping by.  Debbie T
