A Golden Christmas

Evening Peeps
Think I've got the Tilda bug, but then it's better than any of the other bugs going round at the mo! :D 

So onto the card, unless your're from another planet, the stamps are from Magnolia :)   The gorgeous papers are from the 'Jovial' collection at Basic Grey, the flower and star are from Prima and the big jewel is from Doodlebug.

I've coloured her with Promarkers and Prisma Pencils and used Pearly Stuff and Glamour Dust and 'Champagne' Stickles glitter glue, which matched the glitter on the big Prima star perfectly!

Thank you for looking, have a lovely weekend and enjoy the extra hour :)

Love them all :)   The paper is from My Minds Eye, I've used one of me fave Martha Stewart border punches and just love me new Tim Holtz 'Tattered Leaves' dies, which I've embossed with a Cuttlebug folder and then gently went over them with a Brilliance 'Galaxy Gold' inkpad.

These gorgeous flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, I inked the white Cherry Blossoms with the same Distress inks as I used before and sprayed with 'Iridescent Gold' Glimmer Mist, then realised I already had some of these in almost the exact colour I'd wanted in the first place! :D   Proof I have so many of these flowers I could probably open a florists shop! :D

Phew! Off now to cook tea, egg, chips n steak, yum, watch Harry Hill, then at some point make me card for tomorrows Just Cute Bears challenge!

See you soon.

Hi Peeps

Just made a little diddy card for the PennyBlackSaturday challenge before it closes! The challenge is 'Don't be square', so I made this with me scalloped nesties, have seen other people make cards with these and thought I must have a go, so finally have done! This also fits in with the ILovePromarkers challenge, which is 'Think Pink'! Easy one for me :D 

I've used Coredinations 'Chocolate Box' card and embossed it with the 'Stars' folder from Crafts Too, the cute bow is from the Capsule Collection by Papermania and the famous Card Candy and sentiment are from Craftwork Cards. 

I've coloured the adorable little Penny Black mouse with Promarkers and Prisma Pencils and distressed around the image with 'Victorian Velvet' and used Stickles 'Stardust' glitter glue of course!

Across The Miles

Evening Peeps

Back with a quick card I've made for an order! Gosh mens cards are sometimes sooo difficult to think of, but I hope I've done alright with this one! :D

Just love these new Snoopy stamps from Stampabilities, I need a couple more for the boys cards me thinks! The checked and green papers are from Basic Grey and the 'pub' one is from Wild Rose Studio 'For Men' collection (distressed these papers in 'Tea Dye').  I've a Cuttlebug 'Happy Birthday' embossing folder onto white card and distressed it with the following Distress inkpads: 'Peeled Paint', 'Tea Dye' and 'Brushed Corduroy'. You may have noticed the hundreds of gold Card Candy around it too!

In case your're wondering, the kangaroo at the bottom I've cut from a photo and it's there because the recipient lives in Austrailia! Had to get one on there somewhere! :)

I've coloured Snoops in with Promarkers and Prisma Pencils and that's about it really!

Thank you for visiting and I'll try and catch up with you all now :)

Cherished Friend

Hi Folks

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend :)  I would've got this post uploaded about an hour earlier if it wasn't for the new picture editor thingy being extremely slow! Grrrrr! I'm gasping for a drink! :D

Anyway, this sweetest image is a Sarah Kay, the paper is from the 'Floral' collection at Wild Rose Studio. I've used some hearts nesties from Spellbinders and the fab 'Floral Vines' deep edge border punch from Martha Stewart.

I've coloured this sweetie with me Promarkers and Prisma Pencils, the lovely 'Hearts' embossing folder is from Crafts Too and I've also used Stickles 'Crystal Ice' glitter glue.

The lovely white Cherry Blossoms are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the gorgeous purple rose we bought when we were preparing for our wedding 7 years ago and obviously forgot about them cos I've got a whole load of them left! I've sparyed them with 'Pearl' Glimmer Mist of course!

Another photo I'm afraid, I struggle to photograph this style of card and please ignore the clutter in the background :)

Oh and these lovely sentiment stamps are from Kaiser Crafts and the swirl is a Marianne Creatables die.
