HELLO!

Hi Guys,

Well it's been about 6 months since I have posted here. I took some time off from my Try Stampin' - or not - On Tuesdays design duties - well actually crafting in general, to study. But now I'M BACK!!

So here's my card for this weeks challenge:

 I thought the sentiment was quite fitting for my first card back  - although every time I see it, I get the Adele song in my head :)

Ok, so here's the sketch we have to work with:

We hope you are inspired to join in with us this week. It's great seeing what every one creates!

Thanks for looking.

TSOT #247

Hi all! It's time again for another Try Stampin' - Or Not - On Tuesday. This weeks theme was to use non traditional colours for Christmas along with the sketch, for me, these colours arn't Christmas colours, so I went for it :)

I don't normally use a whole heap of patterned papers in my cards, so when I do, I generally like them to take center stage. I love how this card turned out and think I will be making a few more, as they are relatively quick to make.

It's always great to see what you create and hope you have time to join us this week.

Thanks for looking

TSOT #195 - Soft Christmas

Hello! I'm so sorry for the late post - but things have been busy!

Ok onto my card for this weeks Try Stampin' On Tuesday sketch:

The theme for this week is 'snow is coming' and the main panel on the sketch was to be patterned paper or stamped, so I went looking for a piece of DSP to suit. I found this one from the nordic noel pack and I love how soft and pretty it is.

I then went super simple for the rest of the card and used my Festival of Trees stamped in wild wasabi. I then heat embossed using a new to me powder called white pearl, by WOW. Oh my goodness this powder is stunning! It gives a beautiful pearly finish (this photo doesn't do it justice!) and softens the stamped image. I layered the image onto a wild wasabi oval and the sentiment is also embossed with the white pearl and is from Good Greetings.

Here's the sketch:

I hope you like my card and are able to join in with us this week.

Thank for looking :)
