Love Salsa dancing Couple C5 card - Day 19 of my 365 day challenge

Love Salsa dancing Couple C5 card -  Day 19 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card (day 19 of my 365 day challenge) is another card that could be made and sent for Valentine's Day or just to say I am thinking of you. How I made this card:- I cut out the red scalloped heart out on my Brother Scan n Cut in good quality card and then cut a straight edged heart in white. I used the Tattoo collection from Hunkydory's For the Love of Stamps range (from Hunkydory) and used the larger of the hearts and stamped it randomly around the heart using Versafine ink (Black Onyx) and then added the flower in blue, red and green inks (from Altenew and Tim Holtz). I then coloured the hearts in using a red Zig Clear Color pen and let it  all dry. I decided that it needed something else so decided to cut out the Salsa dancing couple in black card (it is a Tattered Lace die) as it would stand out more. I also cut out the LOVE Tonic Studios die in both red and ...

Kingfisher Pollyanna Pickering Lacey 6in card - Day 363 of my 366 day challenge

Kingfisher Pollyanna Pickering Lacey 6in card -  Day 363 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So today's challenge - day 363 is a lovely Pollyanna Pickering of "Whiffy" the Kingfisher topper on a 6in square lacey card. How I made this card:- The "Kingfisher" topper (named Whiffy) is part of the UK wildlife card kit from Pollyanna Pickering (Creative Crafting World) and I attached it to a white panel that I had cut out using a die from Spellbinders. I then cut out the next layer using an "Art Deco" SVG file from "Gentleman Crafter" in purple and black. I glued them all on top of each other and then added it to the 6" fancy edged card (Hunkydory). Finally I added some "Strawberry Coulis" Jewel Nuvo drops (from Tonic Studios) to the purple frame. And there you are - a striking card that I made using some dies, a Pollyanna Pickering topper and an SVG file. Don't  f orget you can visit  The Handmade...

Robins on branches - 2 C6 Christmas cards - Day 353 of my 366 day challenge

Robins on branches - 2 C6 Christmas cards -  Day 353 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I have written a couple of days ago about a card I made using these toppers but when I came to look at it again, I realised that I had stamped the sentiment upside down! So rather than wasting the toppers, I used them to make these. How I made these cards:- I had, as I said earlier, both these toppers already which I had made out of a couple of peel off stickers which I had placed on pentagons coloured by using some "Blue - B01" Generation INX dies. I then mat and layered them to a couple of label/tag shapes which I had cut out in blue card and added that to some cream cardstock. I had also cut out a "jagged edged" strip out of "blue" card which I had cut  out using my Brother ScanNCut and trimmed it to fit both of the cards in the centre of them. I then glued on the toppers using CS glue. Finally I used a "flower" stamp (I can't ...

Abstract modern patterns - DL white card - Day 352 of my 366 day challenge

Abstract modern patterns - DL white card -  Day 352 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card for my challenge has a general theme with no snowman, Father Christmas in sight!  I have used peel off stickers, Mica paints and a general sentiment to make this card. How I made this card:- I first of all took two matching "Abstract" peel off sticker panels and placed them on some super smooth card. Using Mica paints, I coloured both of them in trying to match the colours in each of them. I left them to dry and added them to a pre-cut deckle edged "Black" panel using CS glue. I then cut out a border strip in "black" card using my Brother ScanNCut and placed it in the centre of a DL card using CS glue again. I used some fingerlift tape to attach the 2 panels to the front of the card and then added some colour to the "Just a Little Something for you" sentiment and placed it in the middle of the card using foam pads. An...

Happy Christmas - parcel and bauble DL Kraft card - Day 328 of my 366 day challenge

Happy Christmas - parcel and bauble DL Kraft card -  Day 328 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! It is now day 328 of my 366 day challenge and this time I have made this card using some Tonic Studios background paper, some peel off stickers and some Tattered Lace dies. How I made this card:- I first of all cut a panel of the "Bauble" background paper from the "Christmas Wishes" 8" paper pad from Tonic Studios - this measures 8cm x 18cm ) and backed it on to a larger black panel.  I then added a "Jagged Edged" border strip to the centre of this panel using Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue. I stuck the whole panel on to the front of a DL Kraft card using a tape pen making sure that it was in the middle of the card. I cut out the "flower" shaped die cut (from Tonic Studios) in white cardstock and whilst still in the die, coloured it using some "Orange/Red/Pink" dye based inks.  I then added the "parcel...

Pinch Punch - it is now September so am catching up with what has happened in my 366 day challenge! (Day 245) and what else is happening... Hi Craft addicts! So my challenge is now nearly 3/4 of the way through - can't believe that I have actually made so many different items but must say it has been great fun to have had so many different things to work with! From a Post-it note holder which I am going to revise slightly and bring a new version soon to my most recent cards which again will be launching on my website next week - there have been a variety of things to work on. The post-it note holder was one of the first things I made and now that I have got the Brother Scan n Cut I will be able to make a template so that people will be able to make their own or buy the kit from me of course! I will also be doing different sizes too so that all types of notes can be catered for! Another of my most enjoyable projects was making this "Fairy doo...

Giraffe in leafy frame - C6 white card with envelope -  Day 199 of my 366 day challenge HI Craft addicts! Today's card is a fun and bright card featuring a cute die-cut giraffe . I have left the front blank but have also shown how a message could be added to the front. So first of all, I die cut the "leaf frame" which is part of the Tonic Studios Verso Silhouette Scenes Groom set in black cardstock and backed it on to some white card. I then cut out the "Giraffe" (from the Ark collection from Tattered Lace) and stuck it on to the centre of the frame.  i also coloured the top and bottom of the frame using BT4 (blue) and DG1 (green) Spectrum Noir markers to suggest the sky and grass and TN6 (Tan/Orange) for the Giraffe spots. I had cut out the tattered edge border strip in bright blue cardstcok (from Cricut or American Crafts ) and stuck it to the right hand side of the card leaving a small white edge to it. I then glued the topper t...
