WINTER ACTIVITIES

Morning All,

This is my reminder post for Christmas Craft Creations where the theme is Winter Activities. 


For my card I have used a stamp from Whipper Snapper called Prescott coloured with copics and fussy cut  to add to the little snowy scene.  Glitter has been added to his hat  and skate and to the snow and trees.  Finished off with a die cut sentiment and silver mirri card for the mat.

There's still plenty of time to enter until Sept 13th when the challenge finishes.

I would like to enter:

CAS CHRISTMAS

 Morning All,

I've made a CAS Christmas card featuring a Penny Black stamp called Pinecone Perch.


It has been stamped on copic friendly paper and coloured with copics, cut out with a mini scalloped die and added the heat embossed sentiment which also comes with the stamp.  I placed it directly onto the white hammered base, but it didn't look quite right so I added a red mat for a bit of colour.  I would have rounded the edges, but I seemed to have lost my corner punch somewhere!  Searched high and low, but can't find it.  I'm sure it'll turn up somewhere unexpected.

I would like to enter:

Simon Says Weds - Christmas
Festive Friday - Christmas
Penny Black Saturday - Anything Goes

Outlawz challenge - Anything Goes

Thank you for visiting, have a good week and I will be back on Wednesday.

FAVOURITE DOMESTIC ANIMAL

Morning All,

It's the start of a new challenge at As You Like It and this time we are asking you to share a project containing your favourite domestic animal. 


My fave is definitely a dog.  We have two of them and they are so loving and loyal.  For my card I have used an old LOTV stamp called Buckets of Love, I think.  I have coloured him with copics on a snippet of copic friendly paper and used checked paper to match.  The Sending die has been cut 3 times and is from Simon Says Stamp.   A few little bubbles have been added and glossy accents to the water, which you can't really see in the photo.

The sponsor for the challenge is:

with a voucher for the lucky winner.

I would like to enter:

Festive Fridays - Animals
Snippets Playground - snippets used were the 3 layers of sentiment and white paper.

FAVOURITE AFRICAN OR AUSTRALIAN WILD ANIMAL

 Good Morning Everyone,

It is time for a new challenge at As You Like It and we are asking to see your favourite African or Australian Wild Animal.


I have chosen elephants, they are such gentle giants, don't deserve to be hunted for their ivory and I love to see baby elephants, they are so cute.  I have used this image from Digistamp Boutique (no longer trading) together with the sentiment.  I have coloured with copics and used my frame dies from Clearly Besotted, layered up twice for a bit of depth.

The sponsor for the challenge is Lawn Fawn with a voucher for the lucky winner.

I hope you can pop over to the challenge to see the inspiration from the rest of the team.

I would like to enter:
