Spooky Halloween at Stampin with the Dragon

 Meet this cute little monster duo from Stamping Dragon Designs, arn't they fab they are part of Janettes new release of halloween images which have a fab offer on them at the moment to buy all 3 sets for $5. I have coloured them with promarkers and decoupages their eyes and teeth, they are mounted onto some white wash card which has been embossed and then sanded to allow the orange to show through. The background paper has been printed directly on to the card base to save messing around trying to stick it at odd angles. I've gone round the edges with black glitter glue but it doesn't show to well in the photo.

The papers are from the MME pad that came free with a magazine a while ago. The flowers in the top corner have been coloured to match with promarkers, the smaller ones have flatback pearls in the centres and the larger one has a pearl brad.

Bunny Christmas

How cute is this little bunny, he was the digi stampI picked when I won at Bee Crafty recently.  I made this easel card using the largest of my scallopped nestie circles cutting a smaller circle of paper.

 I haven't really coloured much on the image the bunnies nose with a pink promarkers but I did cover him with white fun flock and then the streamer and baubles with a sakura glitter pen. On top of the baubles I  have put a clear glitter spot to make it raised.I've sat him on a square of green card around which I doodled with a white pen.
The sentiment is from Craftwork cards and the snowflakes are from a stash swap I just added a little gem to the centre.

Bathtime

This week I have used Ruperts Bathtime for my Stamping Dragon project I thought this was the perfect image to use on a gift box for some bathbombs so I set about making this little box I followed the instructions here. It was so simple and quick to make, I used a sheet of A4 card printed with Pink Petticoat ribbons in duck egg blue.

I've coloured the image with promarkers adding 3d gloss to the little duckie and some picket fence distress stickles for the bubbles.

Clean & Simple card

Not quite sure where the weekend went I certainly never got half of what I planned to do done so last night I had to make a quick card for today, this is what I came up with. I bought a fab little set of stamps from Glittermum I thought these would be perfect for quick cards, I used one on this card.

I have coloured him with promarkers and the mounted him on some green basic grey paper and then added a piece of co-ordinating paper from the Oliver stack to the card front, adding just a pice of rik rak and some card candy to it. I have stamped the happy birthday directly onto the card blank.

I choose Wishing Well as my image, the DP is from Funky Fairies who sadly are no more.

The flower is madefrom scalloped circles which have been cut into flower shapes and finished with buttons and paper string. Ribbon is from my stash as is the sentiment.

The butterflies are punched with my embossing punch from the DP and some vellum, and I've stuck some small gems down the body and some glitter on the embossed parts.
Finally I finished the card off with glitter around the edges of the flower and the scalloped circle around the image. Don't forget to stop by and check out the other DT cards as they are all fab.

A Very Pink Christmas Card

Well I think this is the pinkest christmas card I have ever made but I like it, I bought this fab image from Heather Ellis after seeing Rainmac use some of her images. The papers are from Dovecraft Christmas Fancy all mounted on silver mirri card. I punched the border from the paper with my woodware punch and then added a tiny gem to the centre of the snowflake.


I have coloured the image using promarkers, adding glamour dust to the fur on her boots and hat. The snow is done with a snow writer. I added some 3d gloss to her buttons and the heart on her coat.

This snowflake is cut with a sizzix die and then I have used a embossing tool to draw lines onto it as it looked a bit blank. The pearl star is from the range andwas only a £1 for a sheet full of pearls in different shapes.

The sentiment is from craft work cards and is mounted on to some silver mirri card that has been embossed with my snowflake folder.

Santa


I found this fab image in my box of christmas stuff not sure who sent it to me so t
hanks to who ever it was. It's such a fab image I didn't want to colour it so have just gone over the lines with my sakura glitter pen to make it sparkle, it doesn't show up very well in the photo.

The papers are a free download from Bearly Mine Designs, I had added a glittery border again with the sakura pen. The gold card has been embossed in the cuttlebug. I've added some ribbon to the bottom, I think it may have looked better with thicker ribbon now and a small wooden reindeer that has been glittered with the sakura pen.
