Recycled Christmas

This takes me back to my roots of cardmaking - I started off making Christmas cards one January from the recycled parts of the Christmas cards which were too good to bin!! This charming little fella started life as a gift tag, the sentiment tag I think came off a gift set and the bow and baubles came off a cracker. The BP and mirri card were from my bit box.

Challenges entered:

Jingle Belles - recycle/reuse
Sparkles Forum - ribbons and gems

PS and I got a mention lol - here

Hotspot

This was a completely new technique to me but it looked interesting:

The idea is to stamp an image twice and cut a circle from the second image which you colour in and layer over the first image. I struggled to find two circle dies suitable for this image and hence you can just see the red matt peaking out behind the hotspot. The stamp is from Penny Black and the hotspot is coloured with promarkers. The BP is a freebie from Pam on the JS forum.

Challenges entered:

ABC Christmas - H is for hotspot

Productive Day

Got up early (for me anyway!) this morning as I had groceries scheduled for delivery between 9 and 11am - a phone call at 9.30am told me they were running late so decided to make an early start in the craftroom. I've managed five in total albeit little ones. This is the first:

I needed a baby boy card and this is my favourite stamp from Stampendous (I have a matching one for a baby girl), stamped with versamark and embossed with blue embossing powder. I'm not sure where the sentiment stamp is from but it was given the same treatment. Card is finished with a blue bow.

Challenges entered:

LIM - off centre

Simon Says Stamp - emboss it

Carol x

One for the bit box!!!

You decide lol!!!

This started as a "great idea" but I didn't think it worked so pulled it apart and changed the topper but I still don't like it - let me know what you think (honestly lol).

This is the original card which showed Custard eating the flowers from the lovely garden (Joanna Sheens Cottage Garden CD)

This is the second version:

I've used a PATP matt again for this card and the backing papers are from Papercraft 4 You. The bottom matting paper had the black border so I matted the other papers onto some black stardream from my bit box. Both stamps are from Sugar Nellie and have been coloured with promarkers. The card is finsihed with some buttons, a pearly bow tie, ribbon and I've highlighted the dotty paper with a Sakura gelly roll pen to add sparkle.

The challenges this card was made for are:

The Sugar Bowl - Sketch and buttons

Stamp Something - Recipe of flowers, buttons and sparkle

Creative Inspirations - Pets/Animals

Cute Card Thursday - no text

Remember ladies I want you to be brutally honest with me!!

Christmas Silhouette

This image was a left over from another challenge (from Joanna Sheens Dancing with Shadows CD) and is printed on acetate and matted onto white stardream card which has been punched with a snowflake border punch. The matching BP is also from the CD. Card has been finished with silver peel offs and the punched out snowflakes - does anyone else collect the punched out bits!!!
I'm entering the following challenges:
Winter Wonderland - Silhouette
Bah! Humbug! - Santa Claus

My Easter Wish

A very Happy and peaceful Easter to you all, hope you get lots of yummy choccy. It's been a funny sort of day here as it's not officially a Bank Holiday in Scotland - got my housework finished, washing and ironing all done, made a pan of soup, roasted a gammon joint, did an online shop to arrive in the morning and then retired to the craft room! We haven't had any hot weather here either since Monday so I'm feeling a bit miffed :(

I don't usually do Easter cards but I had a shuftie through Joanna Sheens Heavenly Cards CD today and found this image. Don't know what she's serving up but I'm sure it will be a sweet treat!

I've used a Martha Stewart PATP to make a matt again - I like the fact you can use a 6x6 paper without having to trim all the nice edges off it! The backing paper and sentiment are from Heavenly Cards too. Card is finished with some gems.

Magnolia-licious

Been school shoe shopping today, always a nightmare as darling daughter has very wide feet and no interest in shoes!!! My last comment before leaving home was put socks on and make sure theres no holes in them - so why was she revealing a good square inch of bare sole to everyone when trying shoes on!!! Kids - love em but couldn't eat a whole one! Did manage shoes, trainers and some new socks and didn't need a morgage to pay for them though.

Onto crafty things now, I made this card last night and left it overnight to be given some finishing touches.

Using my Tilda with butterfly stamp again, Tilda is coloured with watercolour pencils. Backing paper is from Bearly Mine, ribbon is from Hobbycraft, flowers from WOC, Hobby craft and my stash. Tag is a Doo Hickey die, butterfly and doiley from Joanna Sheen. Card is finished with pearls and lace from my stash.

LIM no 4

I won some Words with Honey stamps over at Rainbow Lady's challenge last week and they arrived yesterday - so I had a play.

You'll have to excuse the photography on this one! I used onyx stardream and stamped with versamark and then embossed with fine detail silver embossing powder. I think I'm beginning to get the drift of this Less is More lark but they sure don't come easy lol. The sentiment says "The way to have life is to love many things".

Sum Bunny Loves Ya

Hi everyone, hope you're having a good day. This is my card for The Sugar Bowl challenge of Purple and Green with a sketch to follow - this is the challenge I was getting mixed up with the other day with my ribbon weaving card and it's taken me days to get my head around doing it again!!

The image is a stamp from Sugar Nellie and I've had one heck of a job colouring it in.....I think this is my fourth attempt.......and I finally decided it was to be a white Easter Bunny! I've used promarkers for colouring in. Backing paper is from HOTP and I've used nesties and a Cheery Lynn Design doiley for matting and layering the image. Card is finished with some funky fibres and a couple of buttons tied with thread.

Taking the plunge

 After seeing Jan's post earlier I mosied over to Crafting for all Seasons to take a look. It's a brand new challenge blog and they're looking for a Design Team. I decided to take the plunge..........nothing ventured.....nothing gained as Jan said! That was the easy part......then I had to pick three cards to showcase....this was my final three:

A bookatrix made for my sister's Silver Wedding a wee while ago. It is mounted on an A4 card, layers are made from a mixture of vellum, card, stardream paper and acetate. Card is finished with peel offs, ribbons, a butterfly, hearts and a handmade bouquet.

I like the paper combination on this card and it was only my second attempt at this type of card. Stamps are from LOTV and the papers came from Costco. Image is coloured with watercolour pencils. Finished with a piece of raffia lace, flowers, buttons and pearl hearts. I've used several Spellbinder dies in the construction.

I found it difficult to choose between this Less is More and my Touch of Red entry but finally settled for this one. Stamp is from Penny Black and is coloured with watercolour pencils.

Now I'll just have to wait and see what happens........wish me luck......I think!!!

Carol x

Tilda and butterfly

My gorgeous new stamp.......I just love her lol. Had a trip around Hobbycraft yesterday just for a nose and boy do they know how to charge! Picked up a few bits and bobs.........as you do.......then found a full set of 72 watercolour pencils for £50 - a set of 36 were priced at over £40 so decided they were a must buy along with a pack of two mini easels. Checked on the web and the pencils are priced generally over £70! So a worthwhile trip. I coloured Tilda in last night with my new watercolour pencils.

I followed the Sketch and Stash sketch for this card. The green backing paper is a free download from Pink Petticoat and is being aired for the first time, checked paper from Anna Griffin - from my bit box, sentiment from Madaboutcards. Card is finished with some swirls, a gingham bow, a rosebud and some gems.

Diva dog

Meet Freya our Diva of a Siberian Husky.

I had been using this chair yesterday afternoon to catch a few rays and hubby had forgotten to bring it back in. Freya obviously thought all her Christmases and birthdays had come at once.............a nice cosy seat just within reach of her tether...perfect!!!

It's been another gorgeous day today so we had a two hour walk to the beach this afternoon - it's lovely to get the shorts, t-shirts and sandals out again - though I don't suppose we're finished with the winter woolies yet.

Hope you all enjoyed your Sunday.

A Christmas Scene

To include at least two stamps (including a Tilda) was the challenge at Die Cut Dreams this week. I followed the sketch from Just Magnolia.

I rotated the sketch (except the embellishments which I left top right). I have used Tilda and her snowman along with this cute little mouse and sentiment from Joanna Sheen. (Little mouse is pleading for a hug too lol). Images are coloured in with promarkers and sakura pens and highlighted with gelly glaze. Backing papers are all from my stash. Card is finished with a snowflake, some Crafty Bitz stars and some pearls which I have coloured with promarkers to match the images.

Carol x

Sassy Circles

Less is More (part 3)

Okay it's a new day and brain is in gear (not yet sure which one but we're going forwards!!). I'd forgotten all about this Penny Black Christmas stamp sitting in the bottom of a box and it's perfect for the LIM challenge this week and it puts another Christmas card in the box!

Image is coloured with watercolour pencils and card is finished with some gems.

Time for lunch now then off for a walk with the dog to enjoy the sunshine while we can.

Winter Wonderland

The Winter Wonderland challenge this week is photo inspired. Here is my card:

I started off with the idea of using my baubles Cuttlebug folder on the background but as they don't quite fit it didn't look right. Decided to go for a simple look.......how come simple takes so long to execute!!! Not sure I've used the right card for this but it's done now. Baubles and sentiment came from a QVC bumper pack. Card is finished with some bows, peeloffs, a pearl and a ribbon.

Constructive comments welcome.....it's been one of those days where I've had ideas but just couldn't execute them.......perhaps I had too much sun this afternoon!!

Carol x

Less is More

The task at LIM this week was to use your sentiment as focus and you were allowed one layer. I struggled slightly with this as I don't have any sentiment stamps suitable and can't print anything on the computer atm after the trojan took out my laptop earlier this week :(

I ended up making two cards:

The first uses a backing stamp which I hadn't used before (and probably won't again as it's obviously dodgy and the middle refused to print out despite three attemps). The sentiment is part of a kit card. I distressed it all with a Tim Holz distress ink pad (an area I need some practise in!). Card is finished with a button.

As I wasn't overly happy with this I set about making another:

Now I've use a little poetic licence on this one lol - I've cut an oval from the front of the card and "replaced" it with the acetate sentiment, then made a scalloped border to frame it. Card is finished with some gems and I used a blue insert.

Carol x

Amy (again)

The theme at Crafty Sentiments this week is Glitter it up. I don't really do glitter........it messes up my nice clean craftroom and makes me look like the fairy who was rejected!!............so I've used glitter board on this card. Amy was sitting ready coloured in - a trial with my new Promarkers, I've added some glitter pen highlights to her T-shirt.

Used my Grand Nestie ovals to shape the card and for the matting and layering. Card is finished with some glittery tinsel, some roses which have been glittered and a few gems.

I'm also entering this in the DYSU - Follow the Yellow Brick Road

Lilac Wine

Is the theme over at Rainbow Lady's this week.

This decoupage was a freebie from Tina Fallon a few years ago. The backing paper is by Paper 4 You. Card is finished with a bow and a pearl.

Nautical

Hi everyone, hope you all enjoyed good weather today - hopefully it is going to last for a few days as our kids broke up for Easter today.  I've been away most of the day but managed to make 3 quick cards tonight.

I love these seascapes from Joanna Sheen's Thomas Kinkade CD which suit the Nautical theme at My Time to Craft perfectly.

A very simple card using Stardream card and papers and finished with a ribbon.

Carol x

Ribbon Weaving

I have spent most of the day making this card! I remembered why I had bought all the ribbons I found the other night - for ribbon weaving - and got to wondering how it would look on a card! This is the result:

I started making a 6x6 card but couldn't pull it all together so pulled it apart and made an 8x8 instead. Then I didn't like the image I'd used so did another one and just as I got it finished I realised I had been mixing two challenges up and was using the wrong brand of stamp altogether!!!!..............must be an age thing lol Anyway I finally got the right stamp coloured in and the card completed in time for bed!

The LOTV challenge is peach and green..........one of my favourite colour combinations :) The stamp is coloured with promarkers (I'd had plenty of practise by this time lol). The doiley is from Cheery Lynn Designs (if anyone has a sandwich for the wizard or grand calibur for these dies I'd be grateful - I only managed to diecut the outside scallops today), flowers are from Prima. Card is finished with some pearls and the little swirls were from the die which originally came with my Wizard and has hardly been used.

May try the ribbon weaving again with a Tilda stamp as I just received another one of the Butterfly Dreams collection today and a very kind Sheenie is sending me two she no longer uses..........so I've gone from one to six in 10 days.......oops how did that happen!!

As always, thanks for looking and commenting.

Teddy Bo

I bought a couple of these digis yesterday so decided to enter the Teddy Bo challenge which is Punch It.

I'm also entering this in the Cup Cake - Comedy Rocks challenge.

On a more serious note I was blog hopping earlier today on my laptop and picked up a Trojan virus when I clicked on the Spellbinders blog which appears to have wiped out my hard drive! Luckily I had downloaded all my photos onto an external hard drive last week and backed my files up......so watch what you are doing!

Spring Tilda

Had to go to Edinburgh this morning to return some stuff to M&S and visit Costco, didn't get the chance to buy anything crafty but when I got home the postie had been with three parcels! Included in one was this lovely Tilda from the Butterfly Dreams collection. I also got my first Promarkers but I need more practise before I show you my "skills or lack of" in that department.

Magnolia Mania's challenge this week is Easter, here is my card:

I followed the Sketch Saturday sketch. Tilda is coloured with watercolour pencils...all dressed in her pacey new with her Easter bonnet and spring flowers!

Tonight whilst gathering the bits for this card I decided to get a piece of lace from a bag of wool/embroidery bits that's waiting to be sorted from our old loft......having found what I was looking for I dug a little deeper and found ten hanks of satin ribbon of varying widths and colours....they're gorgeous....I've used the pink across the middle of this card.

Brown and Aqua

is the colour theme at Crafters Companion this month, I've managed to make this tonight. Spent the afternoon making a weekly chart for the challenges so I could keep up with myself!

Fairy Funny

Both Bah! Humbug!and Jingle Belles are looking for funny cards this week and the Die Cut Dreams challenge is A Merry Fairy Christmas. I used a Stamp Fairy digi to produce this card:

Not the best photo I'm afraid! The sentiments says " Make a fairy happy this Christmas....put a star on top of the tree" and inside the verse is "A Fairy...has a hard time, up where the tinsel flickers; a wand of gold stuck in her hand and a fir tree up her knickers".

Fairy is coloured with watercolour pencils, backing paper from my stash, finished with a bow and a star.

LOTV Spring

I hope everyone has enjoyed their Mother's Day.....I abandoned my family this morning and went off home to see my own Mum and had lunch with her, I then spent the rest of the afternoon in the craft room and left them to fend for themselves!!!

This weeks LOTV challenge is Spring, as I only have one stamp atm I'm rather limited to the cards I can make but I can feel a spend coming on.....

I have followed a sketch from Simon Says Stamp. The backing papers are from Dovecraft, stamp is coloured with watercolour pencils, card is finished with flowers, pearls,sticky ribbon, a bow, a sentiment and some peeloffs.

And finally ..........

Last but not least......but certainly "Less is More" which this week is a "Touch of Red".

Got this Cuttlebug folder for Christmas but hadn't used it so decided to give it a try. Quite pleased with the result although the folder didn't cut too well in places (hence the stategically placed bow). I have used a scrap of stardream card to back the design (which is slightly more burgundy than red - hope it counts!). I haven't used a sentiment as I don't have any matching ink or embossing powders. The centre panel is raised on foam pads.

I'm quite liking the simplicity of this card - I have all five of todays cards on display at the moment and this one stands out the most!

And that's all folks...it takes nearly as long to upload everything as it does to make them!

Thanks for looking. Carol x

To Grandmothers we go....

Rainbow Lady's challenge this week is "A Night at the Movies".

Had to pick a Christmas movie to go with this Pam West printout which was in my stash......it looks like somewhere a nice Grandmother would live lol. Card is finished with a ribbon, a sentiment and some gems.

Sketch N Stash

Following this weeks sketch from Sketch N Stash and combining with Winter Wonderland's theme of Teddies I created this Christmas card.
