SheepSki Designs November 2019 Blog Challenge No. 32

This month's theme on the blog challenge is "Christmas is Coming".

I just had to make a Christmas card featuring Santa so I printed off my Rudolph's Mischief, not really sure how I was going to tackle this project.  I coloured both images in Copics, then I chose my design papers.  I know most crafters pick the papers first but I don't always do that, mainly because in my large stash I will find something to suit.

I used a square pearlised base card and design paper and decided to hide Rudolph behind a smaller square.  I came up with the sentiment myself to suit the images.  The chipboard bauble is from Scrapmatts and the doily embellishment is an oldie but a goodie from Charms Creations, unfortunately I don't think Charmane is making these at the moment.

Don't forget to use our special discount for SheepSki Designs when you check out all the images and take a look at Rudolph's Mischief .  You get two images for the price of one, what a bargain!

SheepSki Designs - May 2019 Blog Challenge

The May SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge theme is "Flower Power".  For my inspiration I have used Daisy Panel.  If I remember rightly, and that is a bit difficult at my age lol, the inspiration for this image came from Andrea's mother-in-law's garden.

I have used a lemon card base, a sheet of SU vellum embossed with a Happy Birthday folder.  This is the first time I have dry-embossed vellum.  I know and vellum has been around for years and in my stash I have more than this SU piece.  It had a pattern on it as well before I embossed it, but it is difficult to see.  The heart comes from an Australian embellishment business Charms Creations.

I hope you will join the SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge this month.

Don't forget to use the discount code SKIANDREA10 when ordering from the Etsy shop.

We also have a Facebook group for lovers of SheepSki Designs, hope to see you there too.

Guest DT at Incy Wincy Designs October Blog Challenge

It was a pleasure to be invited to Incy Wincy Designs as a Guest Designer.  I already had some of Rick's images so it was easy to pick one to showcase.  I know there was a theme for this fortnight but   my invite was at such short notice I forgpot to ask if there was a theme, and there was!  I designed a Christmas card instead of a Birthday card, but this would also be a great image to use on a December Birthday card.  "Christmas Party Hat" is available at Rick's shop, so I hope you stop by and see everything he has to offer, a great artist indeed!

The Incy Wincy Designs Blog Challenges start on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month and has some great sponsors and prizes.  Check it out here

I hope you like "Christmas Party Hat" and the card I made with it.  By the way the doily embellishment is from Charms Creations.

Thank you for visiting my blog and don't forget the Incy Wincy Designs Blog Challenge.

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie

Well today I went about creating a bit of inspiration for Ericraft Stamps new release digi "Spring Unicorn" available here at a great price at the moment, but be quick  https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/605429905/digital-stamp-spring-unicorn-png-image?ref=shop_home_active_1

I call this an Aussie, Aussie, Aussie card because I have used 3 Australian businesses to make this card -digital stamp Ericraft Stamps, chipboard Make It Crafty http://www.makeitcrafty.com/chipboard-embellishments.html and the Heavenly Heart from Charms Creations http://charmscreations.bigcartel.com/. I used a DIYheart that you can colour yourself which I did with a Copic to match the shade I put on the chipboard.
