Christmas Cards Vol II

I have been busy working on some more christmas cards.

I have been using my new couture creations embossing folders, smooch, glitter and bling.
I have used traditional christmas colours and some other non traditional colours this time

The first christmas tree is mounted on green card, this can also be done in red.
Colours used are Tiara and Holly
I can also do this design with Blue and Red Glitter.
I have also done this in Platinum and Copper which looks very effective, looks better with Rhinestones.
Colours used are Platinum and Copper

The other embossing folder is a bauble tree, which I have coloured some of the baubles in and added rhinestones
Colours I decided to use are Blue and Purple with Silver Stars and Sassy Pink and Purple with Silver Stars (Gold star on top of tree).

Mounted on purple cardMounted on Pink card
Mounted on Blue Card.

All cards are $2 each.
I can also do the same christmas trees as last year.
Remember to get your orders in early

Thanks

Christmas Cards

Wow, I can't believe how long it has been since I have updated my blog.

I have been very busy with my baby boy who arrived in late July. He is a fantastic little bubba and melts my heart with his beautiful smile.

Anyway enough about me, I have been asked if I'm making Christmas Cards again this year and the answer is Yes.
I have started on a few designs.

I have recently purchased some new embossing folders from craft concepts, 2 new christmas trees which I'm still working on and some Candles with holly as pictured below.
The price is still $2 each
These cards have been done with a red and green background.
The red berries are red rhinestones
Sentiments you can choose from is a selection from lilly of the valley stamps, they are:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Season's Greeting Wishing you a Joyous Christmas
Merry Christmas May your days be Merry & Bright
Merry Christmas Warmest thoughts & Best Wishes
Stay tuned for some more designs.
To ensure you have your cards with enough time for posting please order before the end of October at the latest.

Thanks
Angela

Gone Fishin.....

I picked up a new stamp set this weekend and I have a male birthday coming up.
This stamp is perfect for him!

I have coloured him using distress inks and he is looking a bit green around the gills in my photo but he doesn't really look like that. (Taking photos tonight is not proving easy with poor light and an overcast day)
I have used jute around the edge of the image for some added texture
I have tried to make it look like the sign is hanging from the jute The sketch I have used is from totally papercrafts Thanks for stopping by

Some more flower soft



I have been busy with the flower soft lately. I have made up a few of the 3D pictures now I'm slowly putting them onto cards. My mum came down for a surprise visit and needed a birthday card so I have whipped this one up for her.
I have added some lilac pearls down the side as it looked empty when I thought I'd finished

The image is from flower soft. I added the flower soft to the sections of the garden you can see from the window not through the window


I have used the sketch from Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #98

Simon Says.....Domis sketch

I have found some mojo and started getting back into making some cards......finally.....
This time I have pulled out some 3D flower soft images I found when I moved everything around.


Whilst I don't have all the colours of flower soft I have adapted where needed and I think it has come up pretty well.


I have used papers from the basic grey kioshi paper pad and the cappella paper pad


Roses are from Enthaily and pearls from my stash

Birthday Time

I have many birthdays coming up and here is the first one I have managed to complete. I have used my new Magnolia Wheelbarrow with Tulips. I have coloured the image with distress inks

The grass was coloured with smooch and some smooch detail added to the tulips The Cardstock I have used is from Prima Jack and Jill paper pad


I have layered the image for a 3D look

Its a Birthday

I managed to get 2 out in one day which is very rare.
Not much crafting has been happening since getting pregnant.
Not only that moving my craft room back into 1 cupboard and back to the dining table has not been much fun. Not enough room in the old farm house for a craft room and a nursery.
Anyway enough about that and onto the card I have made
For this card I have used my Forever Friends For you paper pad.
Inside there is a cute bear that I have cut out and then cut out his head and belly to add some dimension.
I have used my lily of the valley sentiments and flowers from my stash with button centres.
I have tried to use Bizzy becs March colour challenge, chocolate, raspberry, mint and vanilla.
The layout is from Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #95
