Joy to the World

Hello

Somehow the end of the year has crept up on me. Just in time I managed to get all of my Christmas cards made AND sent.

I finished off with some snow globe cards using an Apple Blossom die set and stamps from Card-io and various magazines.



I'm looking forward to using the Card-io stamps for some spring birthday cards, so watch this space.

One last festive card using Sizzix dies.

I wish you all happy holidays and best wishes for the year ahead xxx

Polar bears

Hello

If you've been following my recent posts you'll have realised I have been playing with dark backgrounds and opaque media. Here are my last two cards, at least for now, using my favourite bear laser cuts from Giogiocraft.


The sentiment stamps are by Lou Collins from Creative Stamping magazine and they stamp really nicely.

I should have seen polar bears this summer but it's been postponed until next summer...fingers crossed it can go ahead next time.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a lovely week xx

O Christmas tree

Hello

I'm still having fun making cards and tags with dark backgrounds using opaque media. If you are interested in seeing how it started off you can see Isa's tutorial in the link. 


I had forgotten how mesmerising heat embossing is.


I batch made the backgrounds so there are still a couple more cards to show you. Must get myself sorted and actually send some cards before it's too late.

Hope you have a lovely week xx

Opaque materials

 

Hello

A quick post today with another couple of tags made after Isa's tagalong last weekend. You can follow the link to see the video and there's still time to enter the competition. The theme was using opaque materials on dark backgrounds. 



Thank you for stopping by. Have a lovely day xx

Tagalong

Hello

I've been having more of a play after joining Isa's tagalong at the weekend and trying to decide on one competition entry. You can follow the link to see the video and enter the competition. The theme was using opaque materials on dark backgrounds. 




I've made quite a few backgrounds so I can do a few cards as well as tags. Watch this space.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a lovely day xx
