Best wishes

Hi!

Here's my new card with Oddball image CCC# 151 Mummys Day. I think I'm in a CAS mood at the moment..

I arranged the image and text with a text editor, printed it and then coloured the image with alcohol markers. I first thought that I would stamp something to the edges but then I decided to use a paper punch, because I use them way too rarely.

Then I added a blue/turquoise card board behind the image and some glitter around the flowers.

Easy last minute Christmas card

 Hi everyone!

Christmas is already around the corner and you might realize that you don't have enough Christmas cards 😮

Here's a simple and easy last minute Christmas card idea. The easiest way includes only using a text editor, printing and cutting.

I wanted to make something not so traditional Christmas so I chose to use paper from Bats and bones Halloween paper set and just simple HoHoHo text from CCC#134 Jones in the box digi stamp set.

So, I added the digi paper to the text editor and the uncoloured version of HoHoHo text (there's also coloured version if you want to do something really easy). You should use the png file so there is no white background around the image. 

 


When I was happy with the sizes and layout I printed it. I coloured the image with alcohol markers (Copic R59, ProMarker Berry Red, Copics R29, R27 & R22) and white gel pen.

Then I just cut the card and taped it on the black card board.
 
And here's the result. Simple, but I like it 😊

Party in style

Hi!

I wanted to mix gold and silver with black. 

Firstly I stamped some silver texture on the black cardboard with Textures Galore stamp set. Then I used gold and silver embossing powders with Bottoms Up stamp set to create the festive and stylish New Year party feeling. 

I used a gold gel pen to colour the "liquid" and lastly I added a golden frame and taped the whole creation on the black cardbase.

Christmas ornament

Hello everyone!

Christmas is already so close, I just can't believe it. I haven't even decorated our apartment yet.. 😮

Anyways, here is my last creation using Polkadoodles Elvis Wesley collection. I used Sparkly Baubles image and coloured it with alcohol markers and white gel pen.

I cut the image with Posydoodles Circles die and also a bigger red circle behind it. I added an golden attachment (or how do you call it?) made with Fancy Intricate Bauble die and added a string. 
 



Here's a better pic of colouring.
 
 


Maybe I use this as a decoration or it would go also as a gift tag, don't really know yet.

Gingerbread bath

It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter challenge blog. This time the theme is 'Anything goes' and the challenge runs for 4 weeks.

Christmas cookies

 Hi everyone!

Here's my card using Gnome for Christmas stamp set. I coloured the images with alcohol markers and white pencil and then cut the Santa image with Posydoodles Ovals die.

The background I did with Love Heart 1 stencil and Distress Ink and then added some frosting with white gel pen.

When the background was ready I added the images and text. Santa and cups I taped with foam tape to create some dimension.

Those cookies must have been super delicious 😄

Good Morning lovely crafters!

Welcome to The Paper Shelter Blog Hop, in celebration of The Paper Shelter's 11th Birthday on the 8th of December!  This will be a two week challenge, with both teams taking part, and it's our way of thanking The Paper Shelter for sharing their wonderful images with us, and sponsoring our challenge.




The theme for this special challenge is:

CELEBRATIONS

If you've arrived here from Julie O, then you're heading in the right direction!  If not, then you'll want to pop back to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to start again, because you don't want to miss out on this one.  Both Design Teams are participating, showcasing the gorgeous images available from The Paper Shelter, and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commenter a digi of their choice, as well as the main prize, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.

 

  On my card I used this adorable Fairy Tales image. I coloured it with alcohol markers and added the clouds with stencil and Distress Inks.
 
I stamped some fantasy themed images on the background paper, added the  main image with foam tape and decided to add also some acrylic diamonds here and there.
