fantastic We Do Doobadoo Challenge! 

Come on over and do join into the fun, The theme for this fortnight is CHRISTMAS.....that is a easy peasy theme eh? We all are busy with making a Christmas Card or project. This is what I made....

I wanted to make a Christmas Tag, using the Pearlescent Blue PanPastel and the Silver Metallic PanPastel to create the background. A bit of white here and there on the background and my first layer was done.

Than I realized it needed some stars, so I took the Light Modelling Paste and the Stars Stencil and made some stars. I played a bit with the Shake It Pen around the stars and placed a bit of gold on the Deer, numbers and stars Cardboard from Dutch Doobadoo. To finish my project I got some lace and ribbon and placed it on the top of the Tag and a little Fence underneith the Deer.

And these are the products that I have worked with: Just click the image and it will take you to the store where you can purchase your goodies for your Christmas projects.....

                             'All about Paper and Card'

I have worked with a few Rosette dies and made a Christmas tree out of it, once upon a time I saw this fabby picture of Tim Holtz making HIS Christmas tree and I thought to myself why not try it out eh? 

So I have coloured the background of the tree with Versamark and Metallic PanPastels and a christmas sentiment stamp, this time the Golden and Silver Metallic PanPastels. 

As  you can see I placed some stars into the Christmas tree. I played with the Metallic Golden coloured Pans and I think it looks great don't you?

 I tried to show you all the sides of the Tree, so you get an idea how I made it.....I really had fun working on the tree. 

I know a REAL tree has lots of ornaments in it but this one is a small one and to fit all the ornaments in that would be an even bigger job lol.....I sure hope you like the cute tree and hopefully I am giving you some ideas and lots of inspiration on how you can make your own tree or make another project for this weeks challenge over at the Premium Craft Brands Challenge Blog....so come on over and do join into the fun and check out my amazing teamies and what fabulous projects they made....I am sure you are going to love them

So what I did was.....I made a Christmas Tag. Sure loveeee Christmas and making Christmas Tags is one of my favourites......

 I have placed a first layer on the Tag with Gesso, after that the next layer with Modelling Paste. 

On the bottom of the Tag used the same procedure worked on it with lots of Modelling Paste and stencils for the background. Used the Silver Metallic PanPastels on my Tag and the Blue PanPastel. I just love the Metallic PanPastels they are so very easy to use and have this amazing effect on whatever your using to make a project. I can tell you if you don't have these fabulous Metallic PanPastels then you better make sure to get some cause your going to love them too.....and offcourse I cannot do without crackle lol.....so I just had to place another layer of the yummi stuff....

Simon Says Stamp and Show, Show us your Holiday Greeting....

Hiya ladies and gents....here we go again..wohooooo with another fabulous challenge on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog..

As allways our fantastic regular sponsor has a fab prize that you can win when you play along with the DT from Simon Says Stamp and Show.....and our fab sponsor is offcourse.....

Go check this out it is absolutely crafters heaven.

For this weeks challenge I decided to make 2 candleholders for Christmas, I made these candleholders from two old roles where there used to be ribbon.....I have used the fabulous papers from Graphic 45 Christmas Past Deluxe Edition. You really gotta get this paperpad because it has the most wonderfull colors in there and offcourse fabulous images...wow.

Every piece of paper was inked with Distress ink: Dusty Concord, Vintage Photo and Forest Moss.
The flowers are brown and purple roses and worked on with Tattered Angels Glimmermists Dazzling Diamonds to make it real shiny. On the top and the bottom of the candleholder there are green stones from Basic Grey.

The lace is from my own stash just like the stars. The stars on top come from a chain, offcourse I could not get my hands off the chain and broke it hehehe, so took off the stars and inked them up and I sprayed them with Tattered Angels Glimmermist, the Dazzling Diamonds to give it that special effect.

So this is how one candleholder looks like...when it is finished.....I got the idea from a friend of mine, she made two of these candleholders for my birthday in march......and I thought they looked sooooo nice that one day I would try to make one or two....so I did but this time for Christmas. It is such a nice present to receive but also to give someone special at Christmastime......

And yep I told you that I had made two of the candleholder and here is the picture of the both of them, from above so you can see what it looks like from above. They are the same but with the difference that they are opposites....so the flowers are on the inside of the candleholders and the stars on the outside.....

It looks like the right one is crooked...but believe me it is not....It is not that easy to take a picture with all the glimmers and glitz on it hehehe....so I tried the white background and well this has to do.......The "live" project is allways better looking then on a picture....

So I want to thank you for reading my post and hope that you will join the DT team, I just know your gonna have lots of fun. And while your on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog just pay my AMAZING teamies a visit oke? they have made really AMAZING projects again...wowzerssss .........

Thanks for watching ladies and the most important thing is ...let's have fun outthere.

Simon Says Stamp and Show, Show us your Tag.......

Hiya Ladies and gents.....wohooooo here we go again....this is so much fun.....
It is Monday again...time sure flies when your having fun......so it is time for another wonderfull Challenge at the

Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog.....

Check this out.....this week the challenge says......Show us your Tag.....
So here is what I made for this weeks challenge.....Hope you like it....I know I had lots of fun with this one.....

I decided to make a XL Christmas Tag including 2 other tags, So I can give it to a loved one for Christmas (hehehe it is too large to fit it into an envelope heheh). I can even write down something christmassy on the back of the little tag....I have used lots of distress inks from Tim Holtz, Vintage Photo, Shabby Shutters and Aged Mahogany.

The sentiment is from the Basic Grey, Wassail Christmas Collection. Absolutely wonderfull stickers that you can use on your project....The faux stiching is made by a Opaque white Inkssentials pen and the Glossy accents by Ranger was used on the embossed flowers that look like little snowflakes.

The embossing was done by emboss folders, for the cuttlebug I have used the snowflakes and the border with flowers.

The lace with the snowballs are from my own stash. Just like the Vintage Image on the little tag.

So......are you going to put your thinking cap on??? and join into the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge for this week....I hope sooo.....
