Hi there

Here today to share with you a couple of Christmas Goodies

There's Pamela the Penguin

&

Stanley the Snowman

Just the best of friends with there matching scarfs

I have used the lovely Ribbon

Crochet Edge

Oh my very difficult to cut up it is just so lovely 

I have enough to edge a notebook (that was going to be this months project but alas time ran away)

I have also used the 

Basics 2 Go White buttons

Pamela  was a kit which  I hand sewed and added some extra touches at the end.

Stanley started out life as a dolly peg 

I added some gesso and painted him white

I die cut all the felt pieces and used felt glue to adhere

Gave him googly eyes and then attached ribbon and buttons

For his mouth I used a micron pen

Thank you for looking today

Polkadoodles Crafting Ula meets Eden

Happy Saturday

It's far too hot to colour with my markers, they really do not blend very well in this heat

So I was flipping through my collections yesterday

And stumbled across a character that  I love but have not used for a while

Ula

This one is pre-coloured from the store is called

Ula Be a Unicorn

A total fun image

The papers are both from the collection as is the sentiment.

I added a little snip of ribbon , a little doodling and some Nuvo Crystal Drops (Emerald City and my tag was complete)

The flowers came from another great collection

Eden Collection 

Absolutly beautiful

such stunning flowers, and the images are so adorable

I added a little gem to each flower

Thank you so much for stopping by today

Do you want to build a snowman.....

Happy Friday

I am here today to share with you a card I made for the recent Hochanda show

he is a very sparkly Snowman

I cut out a circle and used the outty as my mask , I also ripped some papers for hills and did a circle moon - I then used Distress Oxides, splashed with water to make a snow effect.

I then used the lovely

Snowman Sentiments Stencil 

 with some texture paste and sprinkled a little glitter on.

Left to dry then added a sentiment from 

Heartfelt Tree Stamp Set

Such a simple card but I so love it

That Snowman melts my heart (giggles)

Here is my last post for today

I made a little card/tag holder

I cut the outer box on my portrait

and covered using the lovely new papers

and some sparkly ribbon

Once you remove the lid you find an array of real quick cards and tags

I have to say since photographing this I changed all the twine to one colour as I felt it was too scruffy

The cards were all made from the paper pad and a stamped sentiment

For the tags I used the stencils with some paste and oxides some I made sparkly

Some I just coloured 

Thank you so much for stopping by

Distress Oxides and Stencils background

Happy Tuesday, a little late in the day but I've made a card and I really want to blog it

*excited much*

Nikky from Polkadoodles is now doing stencils whoop whoop and there really fab!!

I have never really been a stencil person although I have a few basic ones I normally just slap a bit of texture paste on job done.....but...... these are so lovely

Nikky did a lovely video on our Facebook group at the weekend , I loved it so much I watched it 3 times , I was trying to soak all the info, colours ,etc etc

Today was the day out came my Distress Oxides 

I used Nikkys card as a guide for my practise, but to be honest I loved it so much it was no longer my practice I had to turn it into a card. 

So the background was made from using 2 of the stencils

Tropical Foilage 

&

The great Outdoors

I totally love them and so ,so easy to use, My mind is literally in overdrive of what I can make next . It's such a good feeling when your trying something new and thinking I would never be able to do that and there it is , right before my eyes 

So I thank Nikky loads for her inspiration she really has taught me so much

I then used the collection

Sticks & Bones

to finish off my card

This was an absolute blast to make

Thank you for stopping by
