Scrappers Delights ..Non Traditional Christmas

Wow was i nervous about this one..I am a traditional Christmas person deep down ,but am open to a change too ..but!!! I have never done a large animal before ..A few deep breaths ,pencils and blenders and about four hrs later here we are ..I so love it :)...The backgrounds are papers left over from when no top left on the pad sorry..I cut the snowflake up and put through the printer to put the faux frame on, naughty I know but I did it because I can lol..Then I cut out the deer and placed it where it needed to be and finished with Larger poinsettias from Marianne Designs,Smaller ones by Signature and Two of Tattered Lace winter dies ,one was mistletoe ,but I cannot remember the other. The leaves are Crafters Companion Ivy small leaves..Thank you for looking :)x

Scrappers Delights Challenge card..Traditional Christmas Colours

I had so much fun with this image for this Challenge..It is one of the firs ones that I saw when I first Joined the team and I have always wanted to colour her ..so here she is .I coloured her using SN pens and pencils to finish her ,on Neenah Solat White card.I have mouted my papers onto black card  and on this one I have used last years Christmas Docrafts papers which sadly are nearly gone now.I placed all my card onto the card base,added glitter to the lovely image for sparkle ,well a girl needs a bit of sparkle lol.. after mounting her onto black card I stuck large snowflakes down the one side..all out of my pre-cut box so an eclectic mix and sprinkled the odd one here and there on the front with a gem for a bit more sparkle too.Please note that I have turned her to face the opposite direction, which is one of the bonus's of digi stamps over normal stamping hehe...I think she has turned out lovely and am really pleased with her :)x

Inky Inpressions Challenge card with a twist Pearls

Hi Here is my inspiration piece to go on the challenge Of anything goes with a twist..with Pearls.. For this card I created the background from one of the vintage wintwr embossing folders from Crafters Companion..This I coloured with several Tim Holtz pads to get a lovely vairied effect..I then tore up the last pieces of the paper that was left over ,but was still white to use as snow..I then cut a Frame in White using a Tonic Die and coloured this also but with red..I then added a doiley ..and the Happy Christmas which I had already done and was just sitting in my to use box :) .. The two fun penguins are kissing under the mistletoe and just adorable I coloured this image in using pencils ,to co ordinate with the background..I then fussy cut it and shaped it and added it to the card with Collall 3D gell glue to raise it from the card and give dimension..added some Sue Wilson Holly Branches and some red blooms and bows to finish.. Thank you for visiting :)x

Bebunni Florals has launched ..Beautiful images and papers

As I have said before this is my most favorite of all the Bebunni discs..The more I worked on it the more I loved it..Crafter's Companion has excelled themselves on this on this one..Beautiful fresh images,..pretty floral papers and lots of nice cards to make like the lovely over stuffed box that I made...I only had to click print and assemble..I printed it onto Neenah card as it was that bit heavier to hold its shape..Then I assembled ,easy ,basically idiot proof I did it lol..I added lace and pretty ribbon bows to the main box..The inside the bunni's were stuck directly onto the support strips and the flowers and ribbons were glued onto thin strips of acetate all with the 3d gel glue by Collall..If I wasnt something to stick it is my go to glue . However please remember if you are posting this do not glue the base on the box..Poor Dean and Leann were about to take it off and all I could think is "Ohh! Noooo!" Yep I glued it lol.. well it was the firs of these I have ever made lol...Hope you like it :)x

 This card I have used a Paper pad from Hobbycraft..It is very lush and rich.I mounted it directly onto the blank as its a very heavy card and then put faux squigglies around it..I then cut to tstips from one of the other papers and clipped them like you do ribbons, and placed as shown..I cut a circle from a scrap piece from a previous project and sprayed with Spray and Sparkle from Crafter's Companion (silver)  Then put 3d gel glue behind it and placed on card ..placed various snowflake diecuts I had already cut and then added the lovely bear, then popped one final snowflake on and added a gem  :)x

This card is coloured using SN pens and pencils on Neenah Solar White card, She has then been cut out using one of the larger Spellbinder dies and mounted onto some beautiful paper I brought by the company who do Gorgus ..will revise when I find the pad sorry head not working lol.. The whole card has a beautiful etherial feel about it , it is a shame really that a picture cannot pick up how pretty this card is in real ,the colours are much softer too..Any way I finished with lace and flowers .to co ordinate with my fairy :) x
