baby ... it's cold outside

Good morning! Today at Crafts 4 Eternity, we have a tic tac toe challenge. Just choose any horizontal, vertical or diagonal line from the diagram below.

I have used: blue, paper piecing and stamping.

As you can see, I have used another Prima Doll. Rather belatedly, I think I am hooked! I have also used a tag fromthe Prima Tag Pad and covered it entirely in cardstock again.

Papers: Bo Bunny ~ Snowfall. These are GORGEOUS! I can't quite believe how long it has taken me to use them. The colours are right up my alley!!

The mitten is a Spellbinders die.

The snowflakes were created with a La-La Land ~ Ornate Snowflakes die. These are so beautiful! Very intricate.

I'm entering this in at the following challenges:

• seasonal ~ Crafty Creations (I have winter)
• use bling ~ Card and Scrap 
• snow & ice ~ Tag Along

Thank you for looking.

autumn into winter

Good morning! This week at Everybody Art Challenge, the challenge is kraft.

I have used Graphic 45 ~ Kraft Reflections papers and a little kraft bag to hold my tags.

The adorable image is by Pion Design.

Everything has a generous dusting of Tim Holtz Clear Candy Distress Glitter.

The card is a Prima Paintable which I've coloured with distress inks and distress glitter.

I bought the fences which were just plain wood and I distressed them with distress inks and glitter. Then I decorated them with some die-cut grass and flowers. I die cut the flowers from some manila cardstock which I had coloured with distress inks.

Finished off with a couple of tag, complete with bells, in a pocket and a string of flags covered with buttons.

Thank you for looking.

Good morning! Today at Crafts 4 Eternity we have a sketch theme.

Here is a birthday card I made, for a sweet little 8 year old that I know.

 

The girl for whom the card was made is called Rosie and this is spelled out on the banner and I used roses card stock from Magnolia. The banner was created with a Magnolia ~ Cloud and banner die. 

I've vintaged this with distress ink and distress glitter.

The cute little image is Magnolia ~ Big Ice Cream coloured with copics.

Die cuts used around the image are: Spellbinders ~ Timeless Rectangle.

Again, I've used lots of Tim Holtz diress glitter ~ clear rock candy.

The Magnolia tag is sitting in a little white paper bag and contains the number 8.

The title tag was created with a double layer of the Spellbinders ~ Nested Lacey Pennants and the sentiment is from an Odd Girl stamp.

I am entering this in at the following challenges:

• sparkles ~ Cute card Thursday 
• anything goes ~ Tilda'sTown 
• birthday ~ Marvelous Magnolia 
• bingo (I have glitter, white, ribbon/lace) ~ Creative Inspirations 

Thank you for looking.

Good morning! This week at Everybody Art Challenge, we have a new challenge which is RIBBON. 

I decided to make a book card all tied up with ribbon. I've wanting to do one for ages and now that I have, I want to make more! So cute!

I have used Prima ~ Printery papers and die cut the frame with a die.

I painted the cute vintage image with clear crackle paint, but think I might have over done it a little!

Here's the inside.

The left hand side has a pocket with a little tag in it.

And here is the booky bit on the right.

Finally the back.

Thank you for looking.

so happy.

Hellooooo! Well I bet you weren't expecting to see me today! I have just joined the Stamp With Fun design team and today is my debut!

So this week, we have a summer theme! You just can't beat a summer wedding and so that is what I chose.

Papers: The Girl's Paperie ~ Kitch.

Image: fast becoming one of my favourites Magnolia Wedding Tilda. I coloured her with copics and stickles.

I've used Spellbinders dies for the circles and circle scallops. Added loads of Frantage. Loving that right now!

I added a vintage key. First I frantaged it, but didn't like the effect. So I sanded it down and then rubbed on some metallic paint in different shades until I had the look I wanted. Love that some of the frantage still shows through!

The wooden clock is by Prima and got the frantage treatment too.

Some handmade flowers.

I am entering this in at the following challenges:

• S for stitching (I have machine stitched around my circles) ~ ABC Challenge
• polka dots ~ City Crafter 
• anything goes ~ Crafts and Me, Crafty Calendar Challenge, The Crazy Challenge
• texture ~ Crafty Creations Challenges
