The Glory of Christmas challenge 36 second card

This is my second design card for the Glory of Christmas challenge 36: lights. Please click on the link and see the lovely designs of others in the team and please join in the challenge.

Once again I've used a piece of Hunkydory card that had the lovely soft candle picture in the corner. I've kept it simple, so the eye is drawn to the lights, adding cream lace, gems and a sentiment. I then mounted on to a piece of red mirror card before mounting on to the cream card blank.

Sweet Pea Stampers 'shaped card' challenge

It's time for a new challenge on the Sweet pea stampers and for the next two weeks we're asking you to show us a shaped card. Please click on the link and see the gorgeous crafting of the rest of the team and join in the challenge - using a Sweet pea stamp/digi if you have one.

For my design card I sued Silentness (owl version) digi by ching chou cuik (also available as a stamp) coloured with spectrum noir pens. 

I have a large box filled with handmade papers, angelhair, mulberry papers etc and I haven't used much of this for years. I thought it was about time that some came out to see the light of day - lol!

So the image is mounted on to a piece of blue angelhair and then on to a piece of white mulberry paper, with the addition of a few gems here and there to give a bit of bling.

Fan-tastic Tuesday challenge 40: summer at the beach

I am excited and privileged to be joining the design team for Fan-tastic Tuesday.

This is my first design team creation, which is for Fan-tastic Tuesday 40: at the beach. Please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the team - and we would love to see you joining in the challenge.

I have used Bugaboo Stamps 'beach border' and 'crab boat', kindly supplied by the sponsor of the challenge. I coloured with spectrum  noir pens.

The background paper is DCWV from their summer pack from long ago. The beach hut and bunting are part of a prize from Flourish with a bling for winning a challenge on Emerald Faeries (I had $15 to spend and got a lovely lot of goodies - you'll see more of them in due time). It's a pity that you can't see the lovely shine on the banner and beach hut. The little flip flops are some I've had for a long, long time.

Crafting musketeers halfway post for challenge 14

As I am on team B my design card is showing today as part of Crafting musketeers halfway post for challenge 14 - please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the team.

For my card I used the Polka Doodles 'office' image that was kindly supplied as Polka Doodles are sponsoring the challenge. You can find the original challenge 14 post here and enter your creation using a stamped image (it can be a digi). I coloured the image with spectrum noir pens and mounted on to an offcut of red mirror card. I created the sentiment on the computer and printed, using another scrap of red mirror card for mounting. The cupcake is from an old Kanban kit.

Caroling penguins

This is my card for today's Christmas card club challenge - Carol asked us to feature penguins.

I love this Penny Black 'caroling penguins' stamp - I inked with memento tuxedo black and coloured with spectrum noir (not that there was much colouring to do). The background paper is from My Mind's Eye 12 days of Christmas paper pad. The ribbon  is from Crafty Ribbons, part of a prize I received for winning at the Allsorts Birthday week (a pity that most of it has been covered by the image!

I based the card on the sketch given for Atlantic hearts 59:

Some more angels for CCAYR mid-month inspiration

As I said in the previous post, the June 'anegels' challenge continues on Christmas cards all year round and today there is a mid-month post with some inspiration from team members.  You can link your entries here.

This is a card that I showed previously for the Glory of Christmas challenge 34 (you can see my original blogpost here) and thought it might be worth showing for further inspiration for CCAYR mid-month.



This is for::

Scrappy hands 15: create the background

CCAYR mid-month inspiration

The June 'anegels' challenge continues on Christmas cards all year round and today there is a mid-month post with some inspiration from team members.  You can link your entries here.

This is my design card for the CCAYR mid-month. I've used a favourite Tin Can Mail angel stamp, inked with versamark and heat embossed with gold detail powder and then mounted on to some gold mirror card. The embossed piece on the side is an offcut from some that was previously run through my eBosser with an Embossalicious folder, with trips of sequins either side.

This is also another card for my CHNC challenge 181: include gold or silver (or both).

This is my card for CHNC challenge extra for June mid-month inspiration - please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the team - and there's still plenty of time before the end of the month to add your own Christmas creations.

This is also another card for my CHNC challenge 181: include some gold or silver (or both).

The background and the striped card are from an old Kanban kit. The silver foiled panels with the lovely bird and baubles and the strip across the bottom are from My Paper Stash 'frost & feathers'. As is always the case, difficult to get a photo when mirror card is involved.

I've kept my card simple with gold mirror card for the background, three gold foiled vellum squares some gold and silver glittered Christmas puddings and some silver sentiment strips.

This is my design card for today's Suzy Bee's bloomin' challenge 33, where the theme is 'celebrate' - please click on the link to see the lovely designs of the rest of the team and join in the challenge, which is being sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps, adding the sentiments digitally, mounting the image on silver mirror card.

I've used Bugaboo Stamps 'AKV too Wedding - cut cake', kindly supplied by the sponsor, colouring with spectrum noir pens. The embossed background paper is some that I've had for ages - quite a bundle of similar papers that haven't been touched and I'm not sure why, because they are lovely. I found a scrap of 'congratulations' vellum that I torn to put over the silver mirror offcut. The glittered spotty ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons, part of a prize I received for winning at the Allsorts Birthday week.

For a footie fan

I was asked to make a simple card for a football fan. The paper is from the Paper Cellar 'men 2' pad and photos are from a bundle I bought yonks ago! As it will be father's day in the UK on Sunday, there are lots of challenges asking for cards for the occasion or general masculine ones. Sadly, my dad died over 10 years ago, so I no longer make a father's day card, but I had some requests recently for male cards, so this is the first of a bunch! I know that quite a lot of crafters don't particularly like making masculine cards, but I do.

The background paper is Forever Friends 'a Christmas tale' and the two red panels with glittered swirls are the remaining pieces that were saved from Christmas crackers three or four years ago - these have been lurking in my Christmas offcuts box.
