Robins on branches - C6 gatefold cream Christmas card -  Day 349 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Only 17 days left to the 366 day challenge and I have once again used some "Peel off stickers" to make this C6 gatefold Christmas card. How I made this card:- I first of all cut 2 "pentagons" out in white card and coloured them in using some "Blue" distress/pigment inks leaving some white in the middle to give it some lighter shading. I then cut out 2 label tags (approximately 8.5x6.5cm) in blue card which i felt coordinated well with the pentagons. Before sticking the topper on the tags, I added the "Robins" peel off stickers to each of them and coloured them in using "Brown, Red and Green" alcohol markers. I used Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue to attach them to each of the label tags and placed them on the gatefold panels so that they were "looking" at each other... I then once again used my favouri...

Robins on branch C6 pink gatefold card -  Day 346 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card is one that I have made using a pre-cut pink C6 gatefold card, some stamps from Hunkydory, a die used as a stencil and some peel off stickers. How I made this card:- I had this pre-cut pink C6 gatefold card already so thought I would make this Christmas card using it. I also had a strip of the deckle-edged "gold" cardstock (this is from Kanban) so stuck it to the bottom and the top of each flap making sure that they fitted perfectly. I then used a "snowflake" stamp from the "Winter Greetings" collection from the "For the Love of Stamps" sets by Hunkydory and stamped it all over the front using both first, second and third generation stamping. I used the "Blue - B01" ink pad from Generation INX (from Stamps by Me). For the topper, I used a die cut (ornate frame - not sure which company it came from) and ...

Happy Christmas - Robins singing... Kraft card -  Day 321 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! As it is now just over a month till Christmas, I thought that my challenges for the next few weeks should reflect this!. So today's card is a cheerful Christmas card using Peel Off stickers and stamps. How I made this card:- This is a 135x135mm Kraft card and I first of all added a "Cream" insert which I cut down to fit inside. I used fingerlift tape to attach it to the back of the front (if that makes sense). I then cut out an oval in "Black" cardstock and another slightly bigger in cream - any die will do to make these but they should be the "nested" so you know that they are the same shape! I really like these "Robin" peel off stickers  which you can get from Craft Creations  and so took 2 of them (looking in opposite directions) and added them to some white card. I also added a few "Gold" stars to brighten the pan...
