  Hi Craft addicts!       Today's is a bright and cheerful Birthday card using stamps and dies for my 365 day challenge. I used the Slimline Delicate square stripes die designed by Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions to cut out this panel from some hand coloured cardstock (using Greens and yellow water reactive inks). I removed all the waste and fussy cut around it and attached it to the front of a white DL card (the corners of which I had rounded using the Prism punch) using Crafter's Companion Dotty tape pen. I stamped out the Sunflower design on to some white card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink and coloured it in using Stabilo pencils. I fussy cut around it and then edged it with a black alcohol marker and then added it to the top half of the card with some thin foam pads. I also stamped out the On your Special Day sentiment (from Stamps by Me) on to some white card, fussy cut around it, edged it with an alcohol marker and attached it to the bottom of the card wi...

Season's Greetings - Industrial Chic Steampunk Santa and sleigh Christmas card -  Day 327 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card for day 327 of my challenge is a Steampunk themed Christmas card featuring Santa on a motorised sleigh! How I made this card:- I first of all used Kuretake Gambai Tansi watercolour paints to create the background - I wanted it to look mysterious so used purples, greens, blues and yellows to create the atmosphere. I cut out the Art Deco frame (using a Tattered Lace die) and having trimmed the background to fit, stuck it to the centre of the frame using PVA glue. I then cut out the Industrial Chic Santa and Sleigh (from Creative Expressions) in black card, and stuck it to the panel again using PVA glue. I then glued the panel on to the front of a 7" x 5" Kraft card using PVA glue.  I also cut out the Season's Greetings sentiment out in a pale teal Mirror card using an old Tattered Lace die and again used P...

Snowflake on Snowflake background Christmas card -  day 325 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Snowflakes are the theme for today's card for day 325 of my 366 day challenge - can't believe it has gone so quickly! I have used some Tattered Lace dies, some snowflake background paper and a snowflake die along with some blue inks. How I made this card:- I first of all took a sheet of the "Snowflakes" background paper (Christmas Wishes 8" paper pad from Tonic Studios) and cut it to fit a 6" white card using a Tattered Lace picot edged square die (approx 5.25" ) and coloured the edges in "Blue" Papermania dye making the bottom part darker than the top. I then stuck it to the front of the card using fingerlift tape trying to make sure that there was an even space all around it! I then cut out the "Snowflake" using a Creative Expressions die (not sure which one) out of some white card that I had previously coloured...

Blank star or snowflake C5 easel card -  day 313 of my 366 day challeng e Hi Craft addicts! Today's C5 easel card has been made using a couple of Creative Expressions (Sue Wilson) dies along with a Tattered Lace die. How I made this card:- I took a C5 card and turned it on its' side and folded the front flap in on itself to make an easel card. I cut out the "snowflake" in white card using the largest of the dies from the Sue Wilson Christmas 2015 collection. I then cut out the "Stained Glass" circle (again from Creative Expressions), this time in red card. For the panel itself, this is cut out from black card using a Tattered Lace "Pin dot square" die. I then stuck the red circle on to it using Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue and then added the "snowflake" on to it only gluing the centre part of it. I then added the whole panel on to the middle of the card, making sure that it is only glued on the bottom half of it. I then c...
