Angels,Fairies, or Winter - Fussy and Fancy Friday DT

Back again with my Fussy and Fancy head on. (please excuse any plagiarism from my last post).

Today's challenge at Fussy and Fancy is being hosted by the wonderful  Jules  who has chosen this weeks theme of Angels, Fairies or Winter, so a great choice to work with.

My card features an image from 'A Day for Daisies' 'Holly Dance'.

I think I went a little mad with all the embellishments, but it is for my sister.. She keeps all the cards I make for her, and displays them each year.  I can look back through them and see how my style has changed and improved.

She is cut using a C&C couture die with gold mirror board behind it. I have added a lot of leaf dies and then added flowers and berries. The DP is from LOTV, and so is the sentiment.

The berries and charms are from Live and Love crafts, and the flowers are from WOC.

A cropped image trying unsuccessfully to show the glitter and shine. I added Crafters companion clear glitter pen on her wings and Glossy accents to the berries.

A view of the inside.

We are being sponsored by 'Lawn Fawn'

 

Jules is also offering a generous prize of her own!

5 seam binding ribbons!

She is letting her winner choose their

own colours!

You have until 11th January to add your projects, and I hope you will check out the inspiration by the ~Fussy and fancy girls.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Winter Wonderland's 7th Birthday Celebration - Christmas Shopping - Winter Wonderland ~DT

Woww!!!!!!!!!!!! Who would have guessed we would be around  that long??????

So a huge thank you to everyone that enters our challenges, it's you that keeps it going, and of course the bonus is you don't end up with a huge list of cards to make at the last minute for Christmas.  Our theme this week chosen by Iwona is 'A ribbon and a bow'

I decided to do something a little different here and made a 'Magic' card. Why is it magic? Because at first site it looks like a flat card.

I added a snowflake charm to the corner to give the hint that there is more to the card.  The picture background is from a set that Crafters Companion released last year. The lace and pearls are from my stash, and I added lots of glamour dust to the 'snow',

The inside made with a card insert from the same CC set.

Spring Flower Hair - A Day for Daisies - Passion for Promarkers DT

Good morning, I am back with my 'Passion for Promarkers' hat on today and we have Marie as our host.  She has chosen a theme of 'Make it Digital'.  A really easy one for you to use, if like me you hundreds of digital images.

I have used 'Spring Flower Hair' from A 'Day for Daisies', I've had it for a while and it was a dream to colour up. I don't think it matches our weather atm as it's trying to snow.

I don't know why I have over 1,000 dies, as yet again I have been straight cutting again.  I did manage to use one layer of Scalloped squares from SB's. The papers are also digital and from Nitwits. I added MB corners I adore anything by Rennie MacIntosh and these do look as if he designed them. The flowers are all from WOC and the ribbon pearls and dazzler are from my stash.

A close up of the image,I love this combination of colours from Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Triamarkers, and I think the tiny pearls work perfectly with the image.

A side view to show the depth of the flowers.

The inside where I added a couple of MB roses, and their birthday sentiment (with the loops cut off the bottom)  The sentiment is from Penny Black.

We are being sponsored this week by 'Too Cute To Ink' and they are offering the lucky winner a choice of three images from their store

I hope you will check in at Passion for Promarkers to see the amazing cards the DT have made for your inspiration this week.

So come on, forget the awful weather and get you Promarkers, Flexmarkers, Triamarkers, Aquamarkers out and do some colouring. Can you please state on your post which Letraset products you have used.

Nana's Closet - A Day for Dasies - PFP DT

Good morning everyone. Today is the start of a new challenge at Passion For Promarkers where our theme is Pearls and Pins chosen by the lovely Marie.

What a day I had yesterday :(  I had forgotten that Team 1 was switching weeks after last weeks 5th Anniversary celebration, so of course no card made.  But no problem I had nothing planned and got my card made and posted........... then realised I was supposed to be using our sponsors image !!!!!  So had to start all over again..... never mind it means I now have a spare card to post at a later date.

So onto today's card which uses the gorgeous 'Nana's Closet' image from A Day for Daisies.

She is cut using SB Magestic labels 25 and framed with the outer layer.  I used a Desire embossing folder for the background as I wanted to keep the muted colours. The ribbon, pearls, pin and butterflies are from my stash.

She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Tria Markers with some Prisma pencil for added depth.

The inside does reflect the front.

We are sponsored this week by A Day For Dasies who are offering a $12 gift voucher to the winner
