Sparkle and Bling

 Good Morning,

My crafty friends, followers and visitors,

Hope everything is well with your world today.  I would like to share with you yet

another little Christmas card, hope you like. Off to hospital this afternoon

to see if they can find out what the problem is with my leg. Will let

you know the outcome  tomorrow.

Details

1. Card base is 8 x8 card to which I have embossed using one of

the new Crafters Companion  embossing folder.

2. Using silver mirri card I embossed the tree using Die's ire 

   Embossalicious embossing folder ( O' Christmas Tree ). I

    then cut round the design and stuck to my card using foam

 pads to give some dimension.  I placed red gems onto to

tree to give some definition.

   3. With the mirri card again I embossed it with a lattice embossing

folder and then created the corner, again I have added red gems

to enhance it.

4. The sentiment is a die cut from Tattered Lace and I have 

completed the design by adding a tartan bow.

Hope you have enjoyed my little offering and hopefully

I will be back tomorrow with yet another Christmas make.

Until then

As Always

Take Care and Happy Crafting

Baubles

Good Evening,

 My Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Hope you are all well  and coping with this awful weather? I suppose it had to come

cannot have to much of a good thing with regards to our weather.

Well the decorating is done, for the time being at least and the house is back to normal.

The make today is yet again The  Christmas  Theme as will could quite a few more

of my makes as I have to get organised and this way I can make my Christmas

cards and blog at the same time (clever thinking ,well that's my excuse)

By the way all the baubles are silver, just a trick of the light that the end one looks red.

DETAILS

          1. I folded a piece of white card to measure 61/2" x 8"and added a black

frame that was made by using one of the Tonic punches.

  2. The baubles were made by using Die'sire Embossalicious folder

            Christmas Baubles with silver mirri board. I then cut out the baubles

and chains.

  3. To create the background I embossed a piece of white card using

Spellbinder( Holiday Magic) M-Bossabilities

4. I then took the baubles and arranged onto the background then

adhered to the black frame.

        5. The sentiment was cut from Silver mirri card with the Tattered Lace

 Winter Wishes sentiment.

6. To complete I added a black bow, silver gems and a silver dazzler.

Well thats me done for today my friends, hope you enjoyed your visit.

As Always

Lilac All The Way

Good Morning, 

My Crafty friends, Followers and Visitors,

I trust we are all well and still enjoying our lovely weather, (I know I am ).

Not had a lot of time to blog this week as busy with my mother and getting

things ready for my holiday, off up to Yorkshire on Saturday for a week

and really looking forward to the break, so after tomorrows blog I will

not be issuing any posts (I know How WILL YOU CONTAIN  YOURSELVES)

HA!!!!!!!

Anyway enough of me being silly, hope you like toady's offering?.

DETAILS

1. Card size - 8 x8 scalloped edge white, I first embossed

the card using Die'sire Ornate Butterfly. I then coloured

the butterflies using Cosmic Shimmer Iridescent Mica Powder 

(Sea Rose).

2. Using Lilac card I die cut two borders using the new

Couture Creations Ornamental Lace 12" die.  The

circle was cut from the Memento - Cappuccino Die and

the sentiment plaque also from Couture Creations Square +

Deco plaques.

3. Before adhering the circle I threaded Lilac ribbon

through and finished it with a bow.  Although they are not

showing up very well I placed lilac gems around the edge

of the circle, along the borders and under the sentiment.

4. To complete I added lilac flowers from my stash and the

sentiment was die cut from a Tattered Lace die (sorry cannot

remember the name ).

Well that's all for today my friends, hope you have enjoyed
your visit.
 Welcome also to my new followers I do
appreciate you all and love reading your comments.

Until next time

Flower Box

Good Evening Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors,

I hope you have all had a pleasant day despite the weather.  I thought we were in

for a nice day this morning WRONG dark clouds came in and yes rain, rain, Oh 

well what more can we expect, still not been to bad up to now (I suppose).

Today's make is a little image I coloured a few week's ago but have only just

got round to creating  the card.  I notice I have another follower (I am excited)

as my followers grow and hope I can bring a little smile and a bit of

inspiration to you all . Hey folks what do you think - Yes I have watermarked

my designs (with a little help from my friend Steve - well OK with a lot of help )

DETAILS

               1.    I took an 8 x8 card covered it with another piece of white card that

                      had been embossed with Die'sire Embossalicious Patchwork Quilt

                                       Folder. To this I added a purple ribbon down the side.

2.   I then cut  a frame (I think it's a Spellbinder but not sure)

    3.   The image I have coloured with pro-markers and glittered to

      add a little sparkle. It was then mounted using foam pads.

                                 4.   The corner were created using silver mirri and a Tonic corner die.

                                 5.   To complete I made a bow and added purple pearls down the side

                                       ribbon and on each corner.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and 

As Always

Playtime

Hi Everyone, hope you are all well?. 

 The weather here is not very nice today as it's raining but

 I will be able to play in my craft room without looking out and thinking I need to be in the

sun.  Once again its Thursday (my how the weeks are flying by) and Mary my cousin will

be coming over, not sure how much crafting we will do as we have to go out first.  Anyway

my friends whatever you are are up to hope you have a good day. Today.s card is again a

stamped one - Hope you like?

DETAILS

Card is made from white card stock and measures 20cm, I scored at 10cm

to create the panel.  Next I embossed the front panel with a Sheena

Douglass  Taste of India embossing folder.  The inside panel has been

covered with a backing paper from the Tattered Lace magazine ( think it

was issue 1).  I then die cut the tree using the Spellbinder Flutterby Tree

and cut extra butterflies for the front panel. The image I coloured using

Pro-Markers then mounted onto a piece of Hessian before attaching to

the card. For the  finishing details I added buttons and a bow from my

stash and placed the extra butterflies around the image. The sentiment

was stamped onto white card and die cut using  part of a Die'sire 

Magic Mirror die.

I would like to enter this into the following challenge

I love Pro-markers  #220 Anything Goes

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and that you will come back soon.

As Always Take Care and Happy Crafting
