Floral Birthday


I can't believe I am into my second week off of my two week break already! Where do the days go?? 
At least I have been able to have a bit of crafting time and today I have decided to play with my Brusho's to create some backgrounds. I have used one of them for this card and used my favourite floral die...I just love how dainty it is without getting lost. I am entering my card into the latest Muse challenge where we have been asked to use Marilyn's gorgeous card (posted below) for inspiration and I've used the latest colour challenge from The Paper Girls. Thanks for stopping by.....

Christmas Squares


I'm still in Christmas mode at the moment and today I've used the latest sketch from the DT at CAS(E) this sketch. I picked out some Christmas words and then highlighted my main sentiment with red backing card and then put it up on some pop dots as well. I also added a small strip of red down the opposite side to add a bit more colour. Thanks for popping in....

Noel


My second card for today and another Christmas Card. For this layout I have cased this months designer Gloria Lee over at Happy Little Stampers. Have a look at her very pretty card at the bottom of this post....love the colours Gloria has used! Anyway, I'm in the Christmas zone so for my design I framed the NOEL with ivy...which looking at it now, I might just add a couple of berries (red gems) to my ivy. Well, I'm off to organise dinner, thanks for taking a peek.




The Best Gift of All


The prompt from the DT from 52 (Christmas) Card Throwdown this week is 'Gift'...so thinking outside the square (so to speak) I scored the sides and a frame around this sentiment about the family being the best gift of all and added a bow to the top. Pop dotted a Christmas tree in the same colour as the contrasting mat and added some tiny bling to dress the tree up a bit...CAS which is what I like and another xmas card for my collection. Happy Hump Day!

Love,Peace,Joy


Another card for my stamping day and another one for my Christmas stash. For this card, I have taken up the challenge from the DT at Addicted to CAS who's prompt is Silhouette. I have discovered only just recently that I love creating with silhouettes so I was keen to create a card with one. I had a bit of background card I had created previously with my DI's laying around so I used that for my pop of colour then stamped a dove on it, framed it with black card and added my verse. I love how it all turned so created a second one with my left over background card. Well, that's it for me today, thanks for popping in...



Spotlight on Lillies


Hi All, I've been having one of those days today with our internet...it just kept dropping in and out...frustrating...so I'm only now getting a chance to post today's creations!! Anyway other than that, I have had a great day stamping with my good friend Robyn we haven't had a stamping day for a while now, so it was great to catch up and also have a play in my craft room. I made this card using the latest sketch from Just Add Ink and my second card using the spotlight technique. Thanks for popping in...

Christmas Greetings


Another Christmas card today, for this card I have used the Just us Girls colour combo and a couple of my Christmas dies. I tend to keep my Christmas cards pretty CAS as you have so many to make...thanks for popping in.



Peace on Earth


For today's card I have used the spotlight technique...a technique I really like but rarely do. I also used the latest sketch from the DT at Just Add Ink for  my layout. I stamped my angel with grey and then spotlighted her with gold. I then added a die cut 'peace' in gold, framed the layer in gold as well to tie it all together and added 'on earth' from another stamp. Another Chrissy card for my collection...very happy. Thanks for stopping by....

Harlequin Birthday


For today's card, I have used the latest challenge from the DT at Muse. I stamped my main image with DI Tumbled Glass, Mermaid Lagoon & Faded Jeans, then stenciled part of the background with Tumbled Glass to give it a bit more life. I die cut 'birthday' and just ran the sponge I used for the stencil to take the white starkness away and raised it on pop dots. Finished it off with a small 'happy', layered it on a blue mat and added some blue gems. Thanks for stopping by....
