SNOW ON WINTER PROJECTS

 Morning Everyone,

It's time for a new challenge over at As You Like It and we are asking you to show us your favourite way of adding snow to your projects.

I usually draw a few lines with a glue pen or fill in areas such as on the car and then add white glitter.  I love to see a bit of sparkle on Christmas cards and glitter is the easiest way for me.

For my card I have used a Stamping Bella stamp and coloured with copics.  The sheet of DP is from Whimsy stamps.  A very simple card, but I love how the DP (in real life) matches the colour of the car.    Bit of a fiddly image to colour with all those lights etc, but I got there in the end.

RIBBON OR TWINE

 Morning Everyone,

It's time for my reminder post for Christmas Craft Creations where the theme is use Ribbon or Twine.

For my DT card I have used Clearly Besotted pudding stamps,  cut them out with their respective dies and added them to stitched squares with small red pearls for the berries.  The sentiment is from the set and I've added ribbon with Merry Christmas running along it, although that's not very clear in the photo.

There is a waterfall card kit given as the prize for the challenge and the closing date is October 11th, so still plenty of time to enter.

BOUQUET OF THANKS

 Morning Everyone,

This is a card made with a Simon Says stamp set called Bouquet of Thanks.

I have heat embossed in gold onto watercolour paper and then coloured the flowers with my Zig markers in brights.  It was a bit of an experiment trying out different colours. The sentiment is also heat embossed and from a Stampin Up set.  I found a snippet of orange paper to match and layered everything onto gold pearlescent card.

METALLIC OR GLITTER CARD STOCK

Morning Everyone,

There is a new challenge starting over at As You Like It and we are asking you to showcase a project using your favourite of either Metallic or Glitter card stock. 

I use a lot more metallic than glitter, mainly because I tend to use glitter card only on Christmas cards, but when I heat emboss something mirror card goes so well with it.

For my DT card I have used a Stampin Up Magnolia stamp heat embossed in gold and coloured very lightly in pink and green.  Gold mirri card has been used for the mats and I've just added 6 glitter dots in the same colours.  Very simple, but I am pleased with how it turned out.

I haven't added a sentiment as not yet decided what to use it for.

FAVOURITE SHAPE OF CARD

Good Morning Everyone,

Today is the start of a new challenge at As You Like It and we are asking you to share cards using your favourite shape.  This can be square, rectangle or any other shape.

 

I normally use ready made card blanks for my square and rectangular cards, which are the shapes I use the most, but when I want a change this Go Kreate die is my favourite.  I think it makes a card that little bit different and special.  

I have used an image kindly provided by our sponsor, Amanda Jayne Designs, called Daisy Sitting Among Flowers.  I have coloured with copics and used old papers from LOTV.
