Trees at Christmas

 Hi there,

Our September challenge started yesterday over at Creative Moments, with the optional theme of adding trees to your creation.

Here is my Christmas creation for this challenge theme;

I wanted to use up some of my stash, so I used a new green base card (it looks grey in this photo for some reason) and an old paper pack that was free with a magazine. I used X-cut large label dies to cut the patterned paper. I then cut a tag from the topper section of the paper pack. I pierced a hole through the card and added the star brad. Finally I added a sentiment sticker to the card front.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Gnome at Halloween

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge has started over at I Love Promarkers with the optional theme of Gnomes. We are sponsored by the wonderful Polkadoodles and here is my creation.

I coloured the image using Promarkers and then fussy cut her out. I took a plain white oval die-cut and used distressed sprays in Ocean Spray and Iced Spruce, after using a shimmer body spray over the shape. I layered my witch gnome over the top of this and then added liquid pearl drops to the sky. As I often do I have left the sentiment off to be added once the card is allocated to a recipient.

Thanks for looking,

Butterflies/Dragonflies

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge starts today over at MAWTT. We had a break while blog ownership changed hands but we are now back in full force :)

Here is my creations for this months challenge:

It is coming to the end of summer and we will be seeing the last of these for the remaining months of the year, so what better theme to have for September?!

I used my die-cuts on some x-cut self-adhesive glitter paper. I also used a Marianne Designs die to create the flower, using mirror card and self-adhesive glitter paper. To finish I used a metallic ink pad for The Range and a stamp set that came free with a magazine.

We hope you can join us for Septembers theme - check out the link above for more details.

Arial and Flounder

 Hey guys,

We have a new challenge started today at I Love Promarkers, with the optional theme of 'inspired by a film'. I have used this little mermaid from our sponsor Paper Nest Dolls Digis, to recreate Arial and Flounder from Disney's The Little Mermaid.

I coloured her using my chameleon pens and then fussy cut the image. I used a sea-green base card and die-cut some bubble patterned paper using large label X-cut dies. I then rounded the corner of a patterned paper from a 3x3 paper stack from the Range and layered this over the top. I have not added a sentiment as I thin this card can be used for a variety of occasions, and so will add a sentiment as required.

Black and White - and Gnomes

 Welcome to August and we have a new challenge started over at I Love Promarkers, with the optional theme of Black and White.

Here is my creations, using an image from our lovely sponsor - Sheepski.

The image was coloured with Promarkers and then square cut according to the boundaries of the image. I layered a piece of black paper over the centre of a base card and added a washi tape strip across the bottom. I then added my image and finished with snowflake peel-offs.

Embossed floral

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge started today over at Creative Moments with the optional theme of Embossing. Our lovely sponsor is Sheepski, and here is my creation.

I used a piece of embossed paper from my stash - I cannot remember which embossing folder was used for this as it was my mums. I layered this onto a textured base card. he image was actually coloured with pencils this time and the fussy cut before adding to the card front, along with a foiled sentiment.
