Home Sweet Home ...

A clean and simple shaker card today, rather effective I think.

So Kraft base card blank, cream, navy, acetate, cream matting & layering.

Cut on my Silhouette and filled with gorgeous red hearts from Nuvo Confetti.

I hope you have been enjoying my card a day during December creations, just a few more days left.  Wishing my fellow creators a very Happy Christmas 2023.

Winter Wonderland ...

Today I am sharing Christmas cards, CAS for speed.  I have used the gorgeous glitter cardstock from Crafters Companion Luxury Cardstock pack; Ice Blue and one of the new die sets from Christina Griffiths & Card Making Magic Snowflake Christmas Collection. The sentiment is cg and a sparkly gem to finish from my stash. No hand stitching in site this year ha ha!

Merry Christmas Jane 

WITH sympathy ...

CAS today, as you can see something that is necessary but not a pleasure to send.

The cutting file is from the Silhouette Design Store titled 'Flower Tile' by the artist Cali Arroyo.

I have cut out of cream card stock and layered onto a lovely green (fav colour anyone that doesn't know me by the way) and gold heat embossed the sentiment from an old Personal Impressions stamp set couple of gold gems to finish, beautiful.

Pine Bough ...

 

  

  

Some special Christmas makes once again, this time using the gorgeous Pine Bough from The Greetery now exclusively available at Seven Hill Crafts.  I have been waiting for the brand to come to the UK so needless to say plenty of goodies went in my basket ha ha.

So navy card blank, navy card mat with Frantage (pink & gold to match the mirror card), mirror card, cream/navy sentiments foil quilled on my Silhouette.  Cut pine branches/needles & cones and lightly coloured with distress ink.  Sprinkled a little more Frantage before assembly.  

These special cards are a little bigger than 7x5 so they have boxes to match.

Happy Birthday to you ...

CAS birthday card today, a new stamp to my stash titled Citrus Berry Cupcake from Colorado Crafts Big & Bold Collection. First inking for that special someone. Suitable for all and looks very effective, I love the detail.

Bye for now Jane x

 

FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL ...

 

Wow, the Spellbinders Anemone die is just delightful, super elegant and I can't say this is my design, I simply fell in love with the wonderful Yana Smakula creation HERE  which was inspired by Joan Bardee Guest Designer for Yana, credit goes out to you both, I just couldn't resist.

Lets Conga ...

Love this stamp from Colorado Craft Company, illustrated by Anita Jeram.  It is lovely to colour and a good size, so I have stamped it either end but it is of course one stamp :) Sentiment is from Spellbinders for the Betterpress but hot foiled.  Crepe, sequins & gems to finish.

Happy crafting Jane

 

HAPPY birthday ...

I have had a little play with some new goodies, this is Ginkgo from The Greetery which is now available exclusively at Seven Hills Crafts here in the UK.  Coloured in Promarkers.  Also the Lets Have a Word Birthday die has been cut several times in the navy/black cardstock to make it pop and then in gold.  Vellum & navy/black mat cut with Sue Wilsons Double Stitched dies.  Assembled with pva & 3d foam tape.  The 'Happy' is taken from Anita Jeram Bee you Stamped in Blueberry Bushel/black ink.

I would like to enter this into the following challenge -

I Love Promarkers - Anything Goes/Banner (I Won Top 3)!

Happy crafting Jane x
