Christmas Cardinal



So this will be for my sort of step-dad - family tree's are hard work, lol! - who loves birds and old fashioned stuff, so this stamp from Sweet and Sassy Stamps (coloured with my promarkers) and the papers from KaiserCraft was a perfect combination for him! The oval frame was cut on my cameo and I finished off with a few pearls. The sentiment was hand stamped, alas I have no idea where I got the stamp from!

Have A Great Day

How cute is this wee pupper from digi doodle shop. I've had him cut out waiting for me to decide what to do with him for aaaaages! I finally coloured him with my promarkers and decided on this side stepper card. The various elements were cut on my cameo. The paper is from the Nit Wit Paws-ativity collection. I stamped and cut the sentiment by hand and added it to the tree with a bit of twine, to make it look kinda like a swing (and it does swing, side to side at least, lol).

Meowy Christmas Kitty

  I picked this from All Dressed Up after winning two of their beautiful images from an Outlawz challenge. Friends of mine just got a new kitten and this will be perfect for them for xmas. I coloured the image with my promarkers and used papers from hobbycrafts traditional chrismtas pack. The stocking embellishment came from the matching embellishment set. The sentiment was stamped from a set I was given a while ago.

Baubles and Bells

So as my ankle proceed to get more painful not less, I went to A&E. After some blood tests and x-ray and a lot of socially distanced sitting around, the doctor ruled out everything else, so agrees with me that it's probably the tendons, but other than to continue with painkillers the only 'cure' is physio... which, is problematic at the moment for obvious reasons. Oh well, we'll see. It is making sitting in my craft room awkward because I'm supposed to keep my foot elevated as much as possible - but I did manage to get my craft on today. If with a small amount of pain. Ah well, art is pain, right? I went with one of my non-traditional paper packs, from hobbycraft. Teal shades are some of my favourites! I coloured the stamps from bugaboo with my promarkers - there is another from the set, a snowflake, which is inside the card, but I forgot to take a picture of that, oops! The frames were cut on my cameo and of course, I couldn't resist the gems... although I ...
