Puppy Post

The theme today at As You Like It Challenge is to tell us your favourite flowers or trees.  Anyone who knows my style would know that I adore adding flowers to my cards.  I especially love flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts because they come in so many colours and sizes.

I love to twizzle (technical word!) the green wires to create a coil, and arrange a set of 5 in decreasing size from the centre largest bloom.   I've kept the colour scheme simple on this card, so have only used cream flowers, but I have a huge boxful of different colours and sizes.

I also love the dimension they give to a card (until I have to stuff the card in an envelope to send it in the post!)

I've used my new Go Kreate Frilly Frame die to create the shaped card base, and kept the design simple too.  Hope you like it.

Patches the Fairy

The theme today at ABC Christmas Challenge is R for Recipe, which is 3 papers, 2 ribbons and 1 image.  I've used my lovely frosty Silent Night papers (again!) matted onto silver mirror card (again!).

I printed my image in pale grey but I still find this 'no lines' technique really hard, and I don't think I did the gorgeous hair of my fairy image proper justice.

Charming Rosie

The theme today at Top Tip Tuesday is Paper Piecing, and I've used a cute little Sugar Nellie image.  Paper piecing tends to work well when you have lots of area to fill, but this little character's dress was actually already quite fussy.  But I think she looks really cute in her floral dress.

I had to paper-piece her arms and the rose in her hands on top of the paper-pieced dress because they were so delicate to cut out from her dress.  It also looked like her dress was on top of her arms, which seemed wrong!  So there are actually 3 layers; the base image, the paper-pieced dress and then her arms again

The card is also quite a C&S design (well it is by my usual standards anyway!).  Hope you like her.

Up Up and Away

Well, after a summer break there is a new release today at StampFairy called Barry Fly Away, and my favourite bear is back, although he seems to be in a spot of bother!!

I've painted my image with my DI reinkers, and tried to make the balloons look transparent. While I don't think they look too bad, I'm not sure about my bear.  Who would have known it would have been so different colouring him in upsidedown!

I've kept the design quite simple, although the papers are quite detailed, so I don't think it looks under-dressed.  OMG, did I just say that?  I'm gonna start suffering from a severe dose of EWS (Embellishment Withdrawal Syndrome) soon.

Maya drinking hot tea

OMW Sunday already. Where's the week gone?  My card for The Stamp Basket today features one of my favourite Whiff of Joy images and of course as it's a festive card, my (current) favourite frosty First Edition Silent Night paper pad.  It looks great backed with some shiny silver card and distressed edges.  I hope my cards are not getting too 'samey' but I'm just loving this pad right now.

There's something missing.

Hmm, no image.  I'm not sure it's really 'me', but it's certainly different.  I wanted to make a card showcasing the gorgeous papers in my Papermania Lucy Cromwell pad and didn't want to cover them up too much, and this is the result.  The brads are also Papermania gem brads that I've had for a while. They came in a mixed set, and I preferred the larger sized ones which I use a lot to hold ribbon bows on my cards, but the smaller ones seemed to have got forgotten until I decided to use them as alternatives to pearls on this card.

Beware ... it's quite pink!

Purple Puppy Spots

I've got my Go Kreate frame out again to make another gorgeous shaped card, this time using a Crafter's Companion stamp called 'Friends'  He's a real cutie and I've also used some Crafter's Companion papers, although they're actually from a Christmas set, but as it was just a lilac spotty paper, I thought it would be ok to use it on a non-festive card. I've inked the edges with purple ink and stitched around the panels (I didn't risk sewing around the main card base shape as it looked a bit fussy to get the stitching neat!)

The Magnolia Doohickey twisted swirl die was cut in white again, and I coloured it to match my card colour scheme using copic V09.

Getting cross with a criss-cross card

Considering the simplicity of the final design, this card was re-jigged several times.  I started off trying to make a diagonal joy-fold card, but only realised why I've not seen them anywhere else when I'd finished it, because it didn't work!  When the left hand fold was opened for the card to stand up, the inner folded square had to be so far open that you couldn't see the image very well.  So I had a rethink, and decided to make a criss-cross card instead, having to add the additional right-hand diagonal fold and cover up the square inside where I'd had to prise off my insert.

Hmmm, it's not ended up too bad, but at one point it nearly went in the bin!

Annabelle Hanging Gifts

I've got a traditional coloured Christmas card to share today featuring Annabelle from Wild Rose Studio. I've used some non-festive backing papers, but I think the colours are the perfect green for Christmas.  I've edged the card with some green ink and distressed the image panel a bit.

I've got my new favourite paper pad out today, First Edition Silent Night, and it's gorgeous. I'm really surprised at just how many of the pages I love, and these ones are no exception. They make a really lovely frosty looking card, and I think they are quite suited to male cards too (where I need all the inspiration I can muster!)

Tiddly Inks Bookmark

Own up ... Who's friggin' bright idea was it to sew around the edges of a scallop?

This week has seen me venture well and truly outside my comfort zone with some C&S and quick creations as opposed to my usual time consuming fussy projects.  I'm not sure I'm totally converted, but I can see there are times when simple is good!

There are a couple of challenges that I wanted to enter, and this is the end result: a simple, single layer tag shaped fairy bookmark.

And yes, someone (no names mentioned) thought it would be a good idea to give it some extra definition by stitching around the edge.  BIG mistake.  It was not easy with all the fussy scallops.  But hey, once I'd started I couldn't stop half way around could I?  So I persevered and just about scraped through without too many hiccups.

I've added some glitter (hope that doesn't count as an extra layer) and a spotty ribbon looped through the top to stick out of the book.

Because it is to be used as a bookmark, I didn't want lots of thick layers that would stop the book from closing, so it's just one layer.  Yes, really!  I know you're shocked that I can do a single layer, no embellie project, but it's true.

I'm off to lie down as I'm suffering from embellie withdrawal symptoms!

These are a few of my favourite things (with a small splash of pink)

The theme today at As You Like It Challenge is your favourite Shaped Cards (not a square) and if you visit often, then you'll know that I really love shaped cards.  But I've been hankering after a particular Go Kreate die for quite a while, umming and ahhing whether to indulge myself.  So I decided that this challenge could be the perfect excuse reason to treat myself.  And so I did!!!   And I LOVE it.  I think it's gonna get a LOAD of use.

This card is also a 'sorry I missed your birthday' card for a lovely blogging pal who has a bit of a penchant for pink.

So prepare to be overdosed in pink, with a small splash of pink for good measure.

This really is my kind of card; lots of pink (oh yeah baby!!) a cute girlie image, a bit more pink, gorgeous satin ribbon, a smudge more pink, some sparkles (gem brad, shimmer watercolouring, glossy accents), and some flowers.

I've also used some of my all-time favourite papers from Papermania's Lucy Cromwell pad, but unfortunately with all the 'stuff' I've added, you can hardly see them.  They're embossed and glittered, but only sneak through in the corners.  :0(     Trust me though, they're GORGEOUS (and pink)   :0)

Stocking tag made from 'scraps'

The theme at ABC Christmas Challenge is Q for Quick, so I've made a little tag using a stocking template from Shape EZ.

This was truly a quick project and had the benefit of using up only scraps.  I cut out the stocking shape using a scrap of leftover designer paper, cut the top part of the stocking shape again in a scrap of white and embossed it before sticking it on with a strip of ribbon wrapped around it.  Even the ribbon was another "scrap" cut out from the shoulder of a jumper, you know those ribbon loops that just stick out from the neckline when you're wearing the tops?.  I then popped on 3 die cut snowflakes that were lying on my craft desk leftover from another project, added a couple of pearls in the snowflake centres and ran some stickles around the edge.  Finally I punched a hole in the top and popped the leftover bit of ribbon through as a loop to attach my tag to a pressie.

Acetate Aqua Anniversary

The theme today at Top Tip Tuesday is to make something which includes items which begin with your initials.  So my letter is "A" and at first I struggled to think of anything beginning with the letter A, but my teamies helped me out with a whole host of a's, including anniversary and acetate, so that's what I used.   I also used the colour aqua, which makes 3 a's !!

I created a step card, and folded a 'tent' of acetate over it.  (shamelessly cased from a gorgeous Christmas creation that I found on Sonia's Crafty Patch). Although you can't see it too well in the photo, the back panel of the acetate is embossed with a vine embossing folder.  I used pale aqua papers to make the background look like sky, and used some grass and tree die cuts to create an outdoors scene.

Because it is an anniversary card, I also added a couple of heart borders, one hanging down from the acetate at the top fold, and the other on one of the steps.  The image is called 'roses are red' and kind of fits in with the love theme of my anniversary card.

Hope you like it.  Acetate is so hard to photograph and not get a shine reflecting from the lamp or camera flash!  This is the best shot I managed to get of it!

The "polar" opposite of my usual fussy cards

Wow, this is a real C&S card from me today.  I embossed the top section of a square of white card, popped some Christmas ribbon over the edge of the embossed section, stamped my cute little polar bear image in the bottom corner, then inked and stickled the edges before stitching it onto red card which was then raised up on foam pads from by card base. Voilà!!

Annabelle and Tree

It's Christmas in August at The Stamp Basket still and I've got another Annabelle image today, but this time I've sneaked in some traditional red compared to yesterday's frosty theme.

The sentiment is a Whimsy stamp and cut out with a matching Whimsy notables die.  It's kind of a vintage image, so I've used vintage style ribbon rather than my usual sleek satin.  However, the papers are quite contemporary in contrast, but the colours all match to hold the card together.

Hanging Gifts

Yup, I'm still in Christmas mode at the moment, but today I've used some gorgeous papers which are not really festive, but look kind of 'frosty'!  The beautiful aqua papers are from The Stamp Basket and the are so pretty it seemed such a tragedy to cover them up with 'stuff'!

I kept all the embellies either white or pale blue so they continued the frosty theme, and liberally sprinkled glitter in the snowy areas, as well as some pretty lace and pearls.

I really like this colour scheme for Christmas, and it makes a nice change from traditional reds and greens.

Bella Sitting on a Pile of Presents

To make a change from the Christmas projects I've been making recently, I've got a birthday card to share with you today featuring some Wild Rose Studio products from The Stamp Basket.  The image is lil' Bella sitting on a pile of presents, and I've glossed and glittered her to the max to give her some sparkle.

The gorgeous papers are also Wild Rose Studio and I really love this aqua and purple colour scheme.  I've kept the embellies to a minimum to show off the pretty patterns on the papers, but I've distressed the edges of each paper panel and stitched around the edges for some interest.
