Seasons Greetings Slimline Card with Crazy Cats

 


Hello Everyone


Today is my turn to share inspiration for Bizzy Becs and I have

made a holiday season card for you.




I have made a slimline card, they really are the rage at the moment. I used a Paper Rose Studio 
slimline Card Creator Die for my shaker window background.



I have stamped the Crazy Cats from Stampers Anonymous on blending card and coloured with copic markers. Now I must say I got a new blending card fro Craft Jeanie and I love it.
Its a super smooth card and a really nice colour. Best of all the Copics love it and I find I get a really smooth blend without too much effort. 
I will do some comparisons for you and share them on my blog.




I have used a slimline die to cut out the background in card as well as in craft foam to space out 
my shaker windows.
I have added Shaker elements from Paper Rose Studio to fill these windows.

Little Houses On A Hill Christmas Card

 


Hi Everyone


I'm back  to share my new project for Paper Rose Studio.


Today I have made a simple Christmas card using the Little Houses On a Hill Border Die.





I wanted to make a Simple yet elegant card for Christmas and I adore cream and gold together 
as a Christmas colour combination and used that as my inspiration.






The background is a Distress Oxide one on a mixed media paper. I have sprayed by 

card base with Speckled Egg and Broken China Distress Oxide sprays and then spritzed

 the card with water and set it aside to dry.

Once the card is fully dry I have splattered it with black and White acrylic Paint.


The rest of the card is really simple die cutting and layering using my stitched rectangle die set to

layer up my card colours with my final layer a thin edge of metallic gold.

 My sentiment is also cut out of gold metallic card and the smaller sentiment has been stamped 

and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.


Supples Used:

18363 Little Houses On A Hill Die

17823 Merry Christmas Text

16576 Stitched Rectangles A6 Die Set

18225 Christmas sentiments Stamp Set



I hope you have been getting in some crafty time, and if you

need a last minute Christmas card I hope this  has inspired you.


Until next time

The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year




Hello again


Today my card I am sharing is for Bizzy Becs and as it's time to get our 

Christmas spirit going I thought I would share a cute Penquin Christmas card.




I have used the Stampingbella Penguins Bearing Gifts stamp set for my card using
 a mint and red theme, I do just adore these two colours together. 




 The Background is simply made by blending Distress Oxide inks together

 using a blending brush working from my lightest colour, Speckled Egg through to my 

darkest colour Peacock Feathers.

The Little Penguins are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto blending card and 

coloured with Copic markers, I have then fussy cut them out

 and glued them onto the background.

I have then cut out my sentiment using red glitter cardstock.

  



Supplies used:



StampingBella: Penguins Bearing Gifts ( by request)
Distress Oxide Inks :
 Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Speckled Egg
Picket Fence Studios: Blender Brushes

Copic Markers:

Until Next Time
