SnipArt Tag

Hi there, I was supposed to be tidying my Cave as I have a new storage trolley arriving in the new year, but....... I got waylaid , how many times does that happen? anyway I was stuffing my face whilst stroking paper and I thought I really need some inspiration for my kitchen to help me stick to my ongoing diet, so sugar sweet pinks and chocolate browns, that will definitely keep me on the straight and narrow. lol . 

I used some Anna Marie papers on a Tando Tag, structure paste with an AliExpress stencil, SnipArt text and mandala's that I coloured with Tattered Angels Glimmer mists, cheese cloth, pearls, seam binding and flowers from Craft Box.

Lets hope it helps with this years trials.

Snowman

Hi there, Merry Christmas everyone, this is my last Christmas card for this year!

I've used a Sugar Nellie stamp,  coloured with copics, a Tim Holtz Holly corner die, 

glitter card from B&M, gems from poundland and the sentiment stamp from AliExpress

so a really cheap card, but one of my faves I think.

I'll keep it short and sweet as I'm sure you've all got loads to do.

Christmas Pooch

Hi there, well is anyone else fed up of making Christmas cards yet?

I'm not especially when I get to use fantastic images like this new release from 

All dressed up stamps  this one is called Christmas Pooch

you just get the one dog in the image but I duplicated it in photoshop to get two, then flipped one so that it looks like they are kissing under the mistletoe , so cute.

The papers I've had for years, I'm not sure what make and I've also stuck a gem snowflake from Hero Arts on their jumpers just to give them a bit of sparkle.

Christmas Party

Evening, how would you like to go to a Christmas party with this likely lot,

they look like they've started carol singing already, such a fun stamp.

This is two of my new stamps from Swedish house crafts

the party animals are Gummiapan Lucia Christmas carol which i masked and then stamped

with Gummiapan tree art wavy, I coloured with copics and then with a sparkle pen to make them shimmer and shine, the trees have gold pearls stuck on to make them look like decorations, there's a bit of glitter snow across the bottom, the glitter card is from B&M and one of the best I have ever used, there is no shed from it at all and very cheap.

There's only one Father Christmas

Hi there, hope you've all had a great Bonfire night, I must say I'm pleased it's over.

Not much fun when your pets are nervous of load noises.

I decided to take my dog a walk at lunch time so he would be more relaxed, I just got level with the Church and they let off a screaming rocket not 10 foot from the foot path, making both Mickey my dog and me jump about six foot into the air. GRRRRRR

Anyway I thought I would calm myself down with a bit off stamping, I challenged myself to make a card using just one stamp, and I'm pretty pleased with the out come . 

I used a Gummiapan stamp from Swedish House Crafts called Santa's head they also

have a matching die. I coloured him with copics added a touch of glitter to his hat

and printed a sentiment off my printer.
