'Tis the Season to Sparkle


Hi there - Christmas is fast approaching and I am now doubling up on my cards. This was a card I really had fun with. I finally got myself some Stampin Up's Iridescent Ice and wanted to heat emboss it with this Christmas tree stamp from CTMH's Holiday Wishes stamp set. I was feeling inspired by the song 'Oh Christmas Tree' and I am entering it in The Paper Variety's FALALALALA Challenge this week. I am also entering this in Sparkle Creations Christmas Cards Challenge - One Layer.

Something new I tried this time was spritzing the seam binding ribbon with water and crunching it up in a ball and letting it dry. Love how that turned out.

Ink: Stampin Up Night of Navy

For A 'Friend' ......


Hi - quick post of card my daughter asked me to make for 'a friend' at school. I tried to keep it non frilly as the 'friend' is a boy she has gone to school with for a few years.

I used this weeks Deconstructed Sketch No. 29.

The deer is a digital image from the Hero Arts Children's Christmas set. I thought he was soooo cute. The paper is Echo Park's Wintertime and those adorable little gems are Red Swirl Skittles from Your Next Stamp.

Ink: Ranger Distress Ink Vintage Photo, Fired Brick
accessories: Glossy Accents, Sakura Black Gloss pen, YNS Red Swirl Skittles, Inksentials Enamel Accents White and Black, MS punch, ribbon from stash

Love......Forever & Always




My hubby asked me to make a wedding card for one of his employees who is leaving this week to get married in Punta Cana. They are a young couple so the one image I do have was very appropriate for them I thought. I used a digital image from The Greeting Farm called Kissy Kissy and I decided to play along with TGF's Farm Fresh Friday's Friday Spy Day - Tag Your It Challenge.

I saw a few cards done this way - using the image in plain black and white with no colouring and wanted to try it. I couldn't use no colour at all though, so I used a couple copics - R21 for the cheeks, R000 for the flowers in her hair, and BG0000 for the ribbon on her dress. I then added some Star Dust Stickles to them and to the lace trim at the bottom of her dress. Just before adding the Stickles I spritzed the image with some Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz. I hope they like it :)
