Thabk you

Good morning and a very happy
to you all. Over at the Digi Choosday blog today the team were challenged to make a Thank You card. For you the challenge remains as always, Anything Goes. 
Here is my make for this week.

I have used one of my fave collections for this make, it's an old one but still remains at the top of my list, and it's one I turn to many a time. It's from the Picknix 1 collection, and from the mini Home Grown collection within it.
I've used 3 of the papers and cut them down into squares. I've then distressed and inked the edges before gluing them in place. Then I added some faux stitching with a white pen, and layered up the 3 layers. I then used the Flowers 2 and the Super Sprigs Polkadoodles dies to create the flowers and foliage. I then used a Stampin Up die for the sentiment. I cut it out 4 times and glued them on top of each other to give it some dimension like a chipboard sentiment. I then cut it out in Kraft card and added it at the back slightly off to give it a drop shadow.

Now don't forget to pop over to the blog to check out my teamies makes and to grab today's massive discount code.

Ribbon or Lace

Good morning everyone. It's already time for another challenge from us at the Polkadoodles challenge blog. This week the team were challenged to use Ribbon or Lace and here is my make.



I used a circle die to create and circular easel card. I used lots of elements from the Winnie in Wonderland collection on this card. This really is one of my all time favourite collections in case you hadn't noticed! I used the small frame die from the Bubbleicious Frames die set to cut out Sydney the White Rabbit. I fussy cut all the embellies and mounted them onto the card using 3D foam. I added some extra interest with the sprig die and the flowers 2 dies. Finally I used some crushed silk ribbon and a jewelled gem to finish it all off.

Use a die

Good morning and happy
We have a new challenge over at the Digi Choosday blog. As always for you it is anything goes, but the design team have the challenge of  "use a die" so here is my make. Beware there are lots and lots of photos, so you may need a cuppa before you look at them all.
This started out as a plain MDF kit I got at Crafting Live last year.









I just love this so much. I really didn't want to put it away after Christmas.
I used some papers from the Octavia Frosted Winter Collection. I added some modelling paste and gesso around the edges and in random places to look a little bit like snow. I then used a bronze gilding wax around the edges. So I got really, really messy making this, which I just love! I cut all the die cuts out with Centura Pearl card. I bought some really cheap Christmas decorations from poundstretcher and pulled them all apart to add bits here and there. I also added some polystyrene snowballs. I even made the candle ring in the centre of the sleigh. I glittered up some pine cones, used some hessian/burlap type ribbon and some die cuts, and attached them all to a wired fern sprig.  On the arrangement I made for the side of the sleigh I also used some of that silver fine tinsel that you hang from Christmas trees. The dies I used are all from Polkadoodles and they are: Super Sprigs, the flower from the Bubbleicious Frames set, and the foliage die from the Birdhouse Doublet die set. Check out all the rest of the dies from Polkadoodles HERE.

Add a Tag

Good morning and Happy
It's time for a new challenge from us at Digi Choosday, for you it is anything goes but this week for the teams challenge we were asked to use a tag on our makes.
I used the Octavia Moonfly collection this week as I hadn't used it in a while and thought it deserved an airing. I used the pre-coloured version of the Dragonfly image. The papers, sentiments, butterfly, word art and flowers are all from the collection. Just how real do those flowers look! I added some liquid pearls to the centres of them and at the bottom of the card. Everything is matted onto Kraft card and mounted onto 3D foam to give the card real dimension. I used a Tattered Lace tag die to cut the sentiment out with and added an organza bow to it.
 Here's  few close ups for you. Behind the flowers I used the Polkadoodles Sprig die.
 See what I mean about those flowers looking real!
 Now please pop over to the team blog and check out the rest of my teamies fab makes. And of course to grab that massive discount code that will last for 24 hours.

Enjoy!

Hello again. I want to share more makes with you that I did for Wednesdays Stamps By Me show on Create and Craft at 1pm. This time it's cards made with the lamination Enjoy stamp set. I stamped the base image on a pink ink on the first card and then stamped the detailed stamp in green. The papers I used are from the pound shop but I thought they worked perfectly with this stamp. I added a bow and a Polkadoodles Sprig die cut behind the bow.

 On this card I stamped the background in a grey ink and the detailed stamp in blue. Again I added a bow and a die cut. I them added some gems to finish it off.

Use a Die Cut

Good morning and a very happy
The challenge we have been set over at the Digi Choosday blog this week is to use a die cut. Well I never need an excuse to use dies, as I'm sure you know I'm a bit of a die addict, and that addiction has been made worse by the very talented Mrs Doodles as she launched her very own range of dies a few weeks back. So here is my make.
 Once again I've used the fab Winnie Winterland collection and have used one of the Cutting Room pages. I've chosen and cut the image for the Bubbleicous Frame Die. These are so easy to use, no faffing around trying to get the image the right size for you die, Nikky has done all that for us so you literally just have to print and cut. I've mounted the image onto 3D foam to make it stand out. I've then used the flowers that come with the die set and the Super Sprigs die to put behind the flowers. As you can see I used glitter card for this and it cut perfectly the first time in my Baby Blue. I then finished the card by placing a red gem in the flower centre.
A very simple but effective, I think, card.
Now don't forget to go over to the blog for today's discount code which is valid for 24 hours only.
