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).

On Your Special Day, Sister

My sister's birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I've been trying for days to make my brain work to make her card and finally I succeeded.  She's also asked for me to make her a dream catcher, so that's going to be a new adventure to try making one as I never have... oh well that's why youtube exists right?  I used an image from Sassy Studio Designs, coloured with my trusty promarkers. The papers came from Jen Hadfield's Pebbles pack layered on brown card. The sentiment/sister was hand stamped, unfortunately I have no idea where it came from! A die cut heart that's been loitering in my draw since goodness knows when and a few gems to finish it off.

we're dreaming of a pink christmas

As anyone who has been on my blog before might know, I don't generally like pink very much, but that was the challenge and other people I know do so... still I'm rather pleased with this one, I actually think it's super cute, despite the pink, lol! This adorable image is from Di's Digi Downloads, coloured as ever with my promarkers and a little glitter glue on the santa hats. The sentiment was just typed. The papers are from make & creates magical christmas design pad. I went with grey card to layer on a white card base. I added a little lace and some gems to embellish.
