White on White Ornament Christmas Tree

Hi There

As you may know from previous posts I love the effect of White on White so today I would like to share my latest White Creation with you. The main feature is a Die Cut from Cheery Lynn called Ornament Christmas Tree.  I have used a 7" Square Card Blank and layered White Embossed Swiss Dots card onto it.  I used a Darice Snowflake Embossing Folder for the next layer which I mounted onto plain white card to separate from the dots and then layered the tree onto another layer of Swiss Dots White Card.  (Hope that made sense!!)  I have also used Crafts Too Holly Border Die, Robert Addams Poinsettia die (I used a Papermania Punch for the centres which I punched in white Glitter Paper) and the Merry Christmas is also a Robert Addams Word Die.  I added a White Bow to the base of the tree and finished by adding Pearl Gems to some of the Snowflakes and also to decorate the Corners where the Tree is.

Tilda Does Bright!

Hello Everyone!

Hope this post finds you all Happy!  There are 3 of us that all have our 40th Birthday coming up in the next few weeks!  I asked this particular friend "What is your Favourite Colour?" Her reply "I love Bright Colours, Yellow, Red and Orange"  She has a very bright and bubbly personality so I should have guessed but I am not used to working with these sorts of colours and so the Challenge was set!  The Image is made up of 2 different stamps.  The Tilda in Evening Dress Image cried out to me as she is a Champagne and Glamour Kind of Girl.  Then I saw the Glasses that were on an A5 Clearly Stamp, stamped the "hugs, kisses & birthday wishes" sentiment and that was my "Little Picture" made up!  I used a Memento Tuxedo Inkpad to stamp the images and coloured them with Promarkers.  I decided to not over colour the glasses so left the hearts Black and White.  I did use a Clear Star Jelly Roll Pen over the Champagne Bubbles and used Diamond Sparkles Glitter on the Stars.  The Card Blank is 8" Square and I used Bazill Basics Orange as my Base/Frame Layer and the Yellow Pattern Paper is a 12 x 12 sheet from My Minds Eye.  I used Red Polka Dot Card from my stash and layered this onto a Bazill Basics Red card.  I added an Organza Orange and Yellow mixed colour Ribbon and Hand Tied the Bow.  The White Flourishes are a Tattered Lace Cherished Flourish Die and these are cut in White.  I added various Paper Flowers to these.  I Stamped the "Fabulous at 40" using Memento again and layered this onto the same Bazill Orange Card.  To finish I added Pearl Gems and Clear Flower Gems. Got to have a bit of Bling! I think that's everything!!

All White Tilda!

Hello Everyone!

It's been pouring down here most of the day and it's still at it now!  No better time than to be indoors crafting!  As some of you may know Christmas Crafting is my favourite type,  I love White on White and I am a fan of Magnolia Tilda so what better combination than a White on White Christmas Tilda?  I would like to share this card with you that I have made ready to send to a Friend.  Tilda is her all time favourite so she should hopefully like this card when it lands on her doormat next Month!  The Stamped Image is called Tilda in Cosy Coat and she is from the New Waiting For Christmas Collection.  I coloured her using Promarkers and added Diamond Sparkles Glitter to the Snowflakes.  I cut the image out using the X-Cut Circle Die and layered her onto a Scalloped Circle which I cut using a Spellbinders Die.  The Card Blank is 6" Square and I have used White Swiss Dots Embossed card for the Bottom LayerI used a Darice Snowflake Embossing Folder for the next layer.  I added a White Grosgrain Ribbon and Hand Tied the Bow.  The Diecuts I have used are Memory Box Frosty Border.  I Hand Stamped the Sentiment using a Dovecraft Clear Stamp.  To Finish I added White Pearl Gems in two different sizes.  I hope you like this creation!

Creative Team Card for Fitztown Challenge #61 Glitz and Glamour

Hi Everyone

I am so Proud to share with you my First Creative Team Card over at 
The Theme is Glitz and Glamour and I have used Fae 35.  You can find her and all the other wonderful Images at Fitztown Store here


The card blank is 6" Square and I coloured Fae 35 using Promarkers.  I added Diamond Sparkles to her Feather arrangement and used Clear Star Jelly Roll Pen to add some Sparkle to her Bodice, Belt and Glove tops.  I used Dovecraft Green Glitter Paper as my Base/Frame Layer.  The Circle Paper is from the First Edition Up and Away Paper Pack. Its Embossed and has Glitter on it.  The Butterflies were cut from Yellow and Orange Bazzil using Memory Box Dies.  I added diamond Sparkles to the Orange Layer.  (Not sure I can get much more Sparkle on this card lol!)  I used an Green and Gold Organza Ribbon and Hand Tied The Bow.  I used Green Marabou Feathers and to finish I added a couple of Clear Green Gems to the corner of the Image.  I reckon she is looking rather Glamourous with all her Sparkle and Feathers!

Blue Winter Wishes

Hi Everyone

Thank you for visiting.  Its been really cold here today although the sun has been out!  Today I would like to share with you a Christmas Card with a Darker Theme.  I wanted to do something a bit different and non traditional.  I think I managed this lol!  I have kept it quite Clean and Simple to my usual cards.  The Image is from Delicious Doodles and is called Holly Sugar Skull.  Here's what I have used.  Bazzil Basics Blue for by Base/Frame Layer.  I layered White Embossed Swiss Dots card onto this.  Then repeated this process but a bit smaller. The Flourish is a Cheery Lynn Holly Flourish which I cut in the same blue.  I Stamped the Winter Wishes sentiment which is from Spellbinders using a Versa Mark Blue Ink Pad.  To finish I added a Dark Blue Bow and 3 Pearl Gems.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges



I hope you like my little bit of Dark Non Traditional.  Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think.  I love to hear what you all say.  I actually might colour this one up again and make it traditional this time!  Thank you for visiting and hope to see you again soon

Art Deco Style Gone Green!!

Hi There

Hope this post finds you all well.  I would like to share this card that I have made for my friends Birthday.  I know most Art Deco Cards are usually Black and White or Black and Red but her favourite colour is Green so I have stepped away a tad from the Norm!  I have always loved the Art Deco Images you can buy as ready made toppers but find a lack of Digi Stamps for this era!!  This one is from Art By Miran and is called Brittany 1920's Flapper.  (She does a couple of different ones)  I have coloured her using Promarkers.  To make the Art Deco Fan shape I drew three triangles onto Green Glitter Card starting with one that fit in an 8" square and then made the next two an inch thinner  I then repeated this process onto the Green Polka Dot Card but made them 10mm smaller to allow for layering and then put them all on top of each other and cut the bottom off! I then cut another triangle and put this the other way up to look like the bit that you hold onto!  I mounted the whole thing onto a 4" Card Blank but as suspected it could not hold the weight and fell over hence the card stand lol!  It is my understanding that Art Deco Cards are usually quite plain so I added a Bow, some Square Green Gems and a Green Marabou Feather.  The Happy Birthday sentiment is Hand Stamped and mounted onto the Green Glitter Card!
