Time passing - with love clocks 6in card -  Day 244 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! For today, I have tried to use different ways of using things, so have used some papers from the "Bohemian Dreams" 8" paper pad collection along with some " Silver" mirri card. To make the card - I first of all cut a piece of the "numbered" paper to 135mm square and glued it to the front of a 6" inch white card. I then took a sheet of the "Silver" Mirri Card and embossed it using the "Small Polka Dots" folder from DoCrafts. I then cut it down to 128mm and attached it to the card so that there was a narrow border remaining. After that, I cut out the "clocks" from the "Bohemian Dreams" collection (2 sheets) and fussy cut them and glued them one on top of another at irregular angles. To finish it off, I added some "Chaton Rose" crystal drops on some of the raised d...

Create your imagination - Oriental tree shaped card -  Day 243 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft Addicts! Today's card is part of a series I am going to be launching on my website in the next couple of days. I have got to design these cards and gifts using both Tattered Lace images that can be found on one of their USB's which are used in conjunction with the Brother ScanNCut and Pinflair's Background Artist series. To make the topper:-  I first of all cut out the white doily shape using a Sue Wilson (Creative Expressions) die and backed it on to some Lynda Chapman's Black card and cut round it following the shape loosely. I then cut out a scalloped circle and inked it using some Generation INX ink pads, Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Altenew inks in "Pink" , "Orange" , "Green" and " Yellow" trying to make it look like the sky. For the tree, I went into Brother ScanNCut's web app CANVAS and took...

Thinking of you - foiled flower technique -  Day 242 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So today's project for my 366 day challenge is a simple but stylish "Thinking of You" card that uses a foiled flower as the main focal point. How to make the flower embellishment -  I first of all took the Daisy Letterpress and Hot foiling template and used some blue foil on the TODO machine . I then cut it out using the accompanying die in some "yellow" Adorable Scorable cardstock.(I will be adding a "tutorial" to my website shortly as to how to do this) I then used an oval lacy edged die (think this is either a Tattered Lace or Tonic one (really must write things down before I forget what ones I use) in "red" Mirri card. To make the card up... I took a 5" white card and using the "Thinking of you" Line writing sentiment stamp from Clarity Stamps, stamped it out in "Red - RA01 ) ink from...

Tulips (not necessarily from Amsterdam) - hand coloured -  Day 241 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So for today's challenge, I have used a hand coloured Tulip image on a black lattice circle frame. How to make the embellishments. ..I first of all coloured in a tulip which was pre drawn using Spectrum Noir Yellow, Orange and Green alcohol markers along with a yellow Nuvo alcohol marker. I then fussy cut it and then using a scalpel removed the inside bits. I wanted to give the flower some depth so I cut the middle flower away from the rest at the bottom of the stem and also part of the leaf. For the base layer , I cut out the largest of the Tonic Studios "Trellis Circle Base Set" dies in black cardstock. To make the card - I  glued the black layer on to a 148mm white square card and then stuck the loose tulip head on to it and then added some glue to the stems and leaves along with a double layer of foam pads to the flower head...

To make the embellishment and sentimment  -  i first of all took the "Fan" image from the   USB and took it into Brother ScanNCut's web app CANVAS and resized it to 17cm x 11cm approximately and cut it out using black cardstock (this is from American Crafts ).

Been playing around with some of the "Oriental" images that can be found on the Tattered Lace " Typically Tattered Lace patterns " USB (No. 3) along with some of Create & Craft's Topsy Turvy cardstock and some black card! To make the embellishments...   I love the "Oriental" themed images on the USB and have been making a series of cards using them (which will be a post soon) and thought I would adjust them slightly to use on this card... I first of all took the "Crane" and "grass" images and took them into Brother ScanNCut's web app CANVAS and resized them - the crane is approximately 14x8cm and the grass is about 10cm - i duplicated it and flipped it, moved it so that just overlapped the first one and welded them. i then duplicated that and made it smaller. I also added a single one ...
