Seasons Greetings

Hi Bloggers

It's nearly here :) I can't wait for Christmas

I'm sharing another Christmas card made with a gorgeous stamp set from Cuddly Buddly called 'Winter Wonderland'


I coloured this using Derwent Inktense pencils and added Frosted Lace Stickles to the snow. The sentiment is included in the 'Toby Tumbles Snowy Day' stamp set.
This is far from my usual style but I really like the end result & I am definitely going to be trying to do different styles of cards in 2015

Snow Bunny

Hello Bloggers

6 days to go !!!

I love Christmas and can't wait for all the festivities to begin

I'm sharing another of my Christmas cards I made for Cuddly Buddly using the clear stamp set 'Toby Tumble's Snowy Day'


Isn't Toby Tumble just adorable
I coloured him with Pro Markers and added Star Dust Stickles to the snow. The papers are from the Marianne Design Wintertime 6x6 stack and I added a few Card Candi to finish it off

I hope you are all done and ready for Christmas and you have a wonderful time

Last Minute Xmas

Good Morning Bloggers

I'm here with my last DT project for Digi Choosday before our Christmas break, and the theme is

LAST MINUTE XMAS

I was going to use a digi but with having a lot of things going on at the moment and time just disappearing I went with digi papers, sentiment and die cuts instead


The papers and envelope sentiment are both from the 'Work & Play 5 - Festive Hollibobs Collection'. I covered a gold card with the green snowflake paper and die cut 2 different sizes of Christmas tree from the same green paper, a metallic gold card & the gold dotty paper from W&P5. After playing around for a while (OK for ages) I eventually got the trees into a position I liked and even managed to fit the envelope sentiment, which I coloured with Pro Markers, in nicely too. The last thing to do was to add some sparkle with tiny gold gems

I hope you will come along and join our challenge this week, everyone needs to odd 1 or 2 back up Christmas cards for unexpected visitors :)

Xmas Table/Decor

Good Morning Bloggers

It's a Digi Choosday challenge again today and this week its

XMAS TABLE/DECOR

So anything for your Christmas table or decor for your home

I decided to make some place setting for our Christmas dinner table. I used some of the fabulous Christmas Hollibobs characters and tried to match them with my family




I coloured the images with Pro Markers, added stickles and glossy accents to the berries, buckles and fluff. I fussy cut all the characters out and mounted them onto a piece of digi paper I printed from the Work & Play 5 Festive Hollibobs collection backed with gold card. Then I cut an A4 sheet of card down the middle length ways and cut each strip into 3 equal pieces, scored them in the middle and I had the bases for my place setting. All that was left to do was to stick the digi people onto the bases and voila, place settings for our fab Christmas dinner table

I hope you will join out challenge this week, I would love to see all your wonderful decor creations

Cozy Christmas Couple

Hi Bloggers

It's getting closer and closer to the big day :)
Today my Mum & I  put up some decorations and the tree, so my bungalow is now gingerbready-fied (OK so not a real word but I like it)
Im going to share the card I made for my daughter and her fiance using stamps from the gorgeous 'Merry Little Christmas' set from Cuddly Buddly


I coloured the stamps with Pro Markers and used papers from my stash along with gold card, black gems, some blue seam binding & a tree die cut. The sentiment is from a fab digi set available from Cuddly Buddly here and its only 99p :)
I hope you are all on top of your Christmas preparations and not too busy wrapping & decorating

Digi Choosday Challenge: Christmas

Hello Bloggers

It's that time again, time for the new challenge at
and this week it's quite simply

CHRISTMAS

Now there should be no reason for anyone not to enter this challenge as you must all be deep in Christmas makes or already have them all done
I decided to use the gorgeous Xmas Angelberry Hugs for my make this week and decided to make a very girly card


I coloured her using Pro Markers, added clear Wink of Stella to her wings and used Liquid Pearls for the pom-poms on her dress and headband. The papers are from my stash and I added a square of muslin that i had frayed round the edges to match the distressing on the papers. The poinsettias are made from a Marianne die and I sparkled them with Stickles. The heart and pearl strings are from my stash. I really enjoyed making this and its quite a bit OTT to my normal makes using lots of layers

I do hope you will join us in our challenge this week and look forward to seeing all your wonderful creations
