Postbox X-Mas

 



So As You Like It's current challenge is Favourites, Gingham or Florals (and why) which was incredibly easy for me to answer, Gingham. I am not a girly girl, so I've never been into florals over much. Gingham, checkered and plaids however, now that's my jam. I own so many gingham and plaid shirts, I'm not even kidding. My basic every day uniform is some variation of jeans, tee and either a shirt or hoodie, depending on how cold it is and all my shirts are gingham or plaid. 

I used a Pollycraft digi, coloured with my promarkers. Paper from dovecrafts 'krafty christmas' pack and a bit of ribbon from my stash. A few gems and the holly embellishment to finish.

  2. This is such a beautiful Christmas card. I can imagine a child sending a letter to Santa Claus. Your coloring is really perfect and the implementation of the sketch is so successful. I also love the papers.
    Thank you for presenting this cute card at the recent Everybody Art Challenge.

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.

Autumn...

The leaves and quote came from a set sweet and sassy. I used my cameo to fussy cut the leaves and cut the sentiment on the oval. The stars are wooden embellishments from my stash. And the paper is make and create. I added a few pearls. It's layered on a kraft card base.
