Wine and Vine - blank C6 cream deckle edge card - 
Day 147 of my 366 day challenge


Hi Craft addicts!

Today's card is a lot simpler but still very effective I think as I have only used dies to create it.

Wine and Vine - blank C6 cream deckle edge card I first of all cut out one of the Sue Wilson "Eternal Rings" Striplet die in cream cardstock which toned well with the C6 cream hammered card I had for this project. These cards can be bought precut and scored from Craft Creations here

I then glued the panel on to the left hand side (it is slightlly big so you can either leave it as is or trim either end to fit - given that it is a deckle edge it would probably be easier to keep it as it is).

I cut two sets of the "Food and drink" dies from Trimcraft, First Edition in black card (again using Lynda Chapman's black card as it cuts so well). and decided that I would use 2 of the larger wine bottles along with the vine and 3 of the glasses. I stuck them down using Cosmic Shimmer PVA overlapping them slightly.

Once they were in place, I then coloured them with the Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle pen as it gives some shimmer to them but you could also use "Glossy Accents" to give them a glazed appearance.

To finish the card off, I added some "Autumn Red" Nuvo crystal drops to a couple of the centre of the rings and also some to the top right hand corner.

As you can see, there is space for a sentiment or message to be added if needed and an insert on cream paper could also be included.

And there you are - a simple but fun card which you will be able to buy on my website here

Mother's Day flowers card

Mother's Day flowers card Hi Craft addicts! I really love using Tim Holtz's Distress Crayons and so I made this card with one of the designs I created. How I made this card:- I used Tim Holtz Ranger Yupo paper as the base for the flower design - I used his Orange, Yellow, Red and Brown Distress Crayons - just added a few flicks of colour to the paper and then quickly used my finger to spread it a bit...  I repeated the process several times, changing the size of the flowers slightly. Once I was happy with them, I then used a damp waterbrush to fade the colours out a bit. I also used some of the Ranger Blue and Green Distress Crayons to add a faded background to it. I trimmed the panel so it measured 3" x 4.5" and edged it with a Black alcohol marker. I then glued it to some Kraft card (American Crafts as it has a linen effect to it) and cut it so there was a slightly wider border around it. I attached the whole panel to the front of a 5"...

With Love Abstract flower in pink, black and white on hand coloured flowery background square card Hi Craft Addicts! Today's card is a result of using a background I have created myself using Tim Holtz Distress Crayons along with dies from Toni Darroch's Stamps by Me. How I made this card:- I had been playing with some Tim Holtz Distress Crayons to make the flowery background (it measures approx 5" square as the card itself is a 6" one - to do it, I used Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry, experimenting with the "strokes"  I used - it took a bit of time to get the effect right - I used normal stamping paper this time rather than Yupo as it gives a totally different effect. I also used a paintbrush and some water to blend them in even more. Once I was happy with what I had done, I then added some green alcohol marker to create the stalks and some faded blue and yellow spots dotted around the pattern. I then edged it with a black alcohol marker. ...

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card - Day 110 of my 365 day challenge

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card -  Day 110 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I really enjoyed making this Birthday card - especially colouring in the background which I am pleased with how it turned out. How I made this card:- I had previously cut out a few of the Meerkats (a Tattered Lace die) using various cardstocks and thought that this Kraft card one would work well on a desert background. I therefore cut a piece of smooth white card to 110x145mm approximately and started to colour it in. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks to do this-  Tea Dye, Dried Marigold and Rusty Hinge are the main ones used - making it darker at both the top and the bottom. I also added a hint of green to the centre of the panel. I then cut out the oval label panel in the middle of it (I think it was either a Tonic Studios or Tattered Lace die) - I also cut a similar panel using a darker Kraft cardstock. I stuck the large layer on to the fro...
