Pink Christmas ...

CAS today, adore these flamingos from The Lovely Studio (formally Pink Petticoat), no longer available 

:( an oldie dug out but adorable don't you think.  Coloured with Promarkers, add a little bit of sparkle & some thread and hey presto, gorgeous.

Merry Christmas :) Jane

Especially for you ...

 

Managed to get my hands on the lovely Calming Koi dies & stamps along with the  water builder stencil from Altenew.  First attempt but I am really pleased with this one, certainly a few more to be made for my stash. 

Super easy to construct the little fishes, coloured with Promarkers and the stencil looks amazing don't you think. I used TH distress inks; Tumbled Glass & Salty Ocean.  My first attempt but definitely going to play around with this.  So a DL card blank, strip of Sizzix cardstock and sentiment created on the WRMK Foil quill.

Bye for now Jane 

Get Well Soon ...

Had this little lady for a while, so adorable.  Coloured with Promarkers, sentiment included and a few sequins for a bit of sparkle, who doesn't love sparkle.

Happy crafting Jane x

 

CONGRATULATIONS ...

Loving the Camellias from Pinkfresh Studio, Betterpress stamped onto cotton card.  Coloured using Promakers, gold frame created using the Noble Stitched Rectangles, Spellbinders sentiment, hot foiled.  Vellum, gold thread & sequins to finish.

Happy crafting, Jane

 

With Love ...

Love this die set and its lovely to colour rather than using coloured cardstock.  So we have little blue tits on a tri fold card and a wee little shaker on the front of the bird box full of hearts.

Someones feeling blue, so I have made this get well card for them.  Using the fabulous Spellbinders Betterpress on the cotton card, the results are simply amazing, press plate is from Pinkfresh Studio titled; Camellias pressed in Betterpress Ink; French Blue. Coloured using just three Promarkers; Capri, Cloud & Powder Blue.  Vellum wrap, hot foiled sentiment, layered onto matching colour card using the Promarkers once again.  Gold frame made using the Noble Stitched Rectangles from Sue Wilson; Creative Expressions. Some sequins & gold thread to finish.

Happy crafting, Jane 

Hooray ...

I have a birthday card using the Mama Elephant Fly with Me stamps, adorable.  Pretty clean and simple, coloured with Promarkers, papers, MFT hooray die, hand stitched, cg sentiment, sparkles to finish.  These stamps would also look great on interactive cards, note to self!

Thanks for visiting my blog today, take care, happy crafting Jane

Fa la la ...

Thought I would share a little interactive Christmas card today, never too late, ha ha.  So Snowman Agenda stamps from Mama Elephant, I do love the agenda collections, great to just sit & colour away to your hearts content.  The flip/pull was created on my Silhouette Cameo, sentiment also Mama Elephant, trees and snowflakes from old Doohickey dies.  Coloured with Promarkers and some gems to finish.

FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL ...

Today I am sharing a card that came together out of scraps in about 10 minutes.  I wanted to check out the cardstock with this new 3D embossing folder from Altenew.  White pigment ink lightly rubbed over the image.  I grabbed my scrap box and before I knew it I had a finished card.  Never happened before but I suppose that just confirms the amazing quality of the embossing folder.  Hot foiled sentiment was in my scrap box too.  Very simple but stunning none the less.

Well a card a day during the month of December, 2023.  That is me done for this year, wishing all my fellow crafters a very Happy Christmas.  See you next year.
