Winnie Special Moments

Happy Monday Everyone , I hope you all had a lovely weekend

We haven't long moved house so still frantically busy ~ Although I am snatching some crafting time. Now whilst I was busy moving a new Winnie kit was created, Oh my I could not wait to play. It really is so adorable , If you haven't yet spotted it just follow the link

Winnie Special Moments

Amazing cuteness , and full to the brim with oooohhhh's and aaaarrrrr's

I normally rush straight to the characters and start colouring 

But I really fancied something different , this sentiment really caught my eye so my card was focused around that

I used a little Distress ink ~ Peeled Paint around the words and the kite ~ the kite was cut twice and the top layer adhered with a foam pad 

The paper is beautiful, I always adore Nikky's papers on every collection, there is so much thought that goes into them

Then the flowers another great love of mine, I just LOVE Paper Flowers, I added a few die cut leafs and fern and finished of with a touch of Icicle Stickles in each flower.

Thank you so much for looking 

Have a great week

Let it Snow-Well I Never - Simply Cards & Papercraft

Yepidoodle this time last week was that time of the month , 

the time I start stalking my postie for my delivery of *Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine*

I adore reading it from front to back, skipping through first off, stroking the freebies and then later a nice long read through

However this month things did not go to plan, I was skipping through and when I got to the readers page , I thought ohhh I made a card very similar to that, rubbed my eyes, looked again that was my card !! Star Letter Ohhhh Wowser I was absolutly chuffed to bits 

You can see my original post here

I then had to tell everyone that would listen

Now I love all the freebies that we get but this month's Let it Snow absolutly lush

What did we get ?

The most stunning embossing folder (6 x 4)

The most beautiful snowflake die

A stamp set containing 6 stamps

Now I described last months free gift Santa Claus is Coming to Town as pure magical, could I do it again and use the same description? You bet I could, these adorable little snowflakes, the most beautiful sentiments, If you have not seen the magazine this is a must have.

Soooooo after all the excitement, what did I make?

I decided on a Christmas tag, (I enjoyed making it so much I ended up making three)

I used Memento inks throughout for my stamping and Distress inks for the edges

Main Snowflake cut in coordinating card

Finished them all with some matching ribbons and little gems.

Inks - Toffee Crunch & Black Soot

Inks - Toffee Crunch & Tumble Glass

Inks - Toffee Crunch, Angel Pink & Spun Sugar

Scatty's Top Tip

Before I finish today's post please do not think Snowflakes are just for Christmas , just take a look at the negative from the die! How pretty is that , it would look fab as a mask simply used with some Brusho's or similar - I can see lots of ideas

Each year I do close family (about 8) special Christmas cards I always use the same theme but every card is slightly different

I made this card the other day using the brand new

Winnie Winterland

I loved how it turned out so much and have decided my Christmas cards this year will focus on this one

This card is 6x6 and is a beautifully textured cardstock

I used pre-coloured images absolutly adorable , also using the lovely sentiment Home for Christmas

The papers in this collection are wonderful , they add so much quality to your cards

I added a little ribbon and mixed some lovely flowers in with the paper ones.

Adding a little bell to the card and a jingly ball to the tag

The die-cuts used on the card are Ribbon/Gift frames and corners and the tag was die- cut using Bubbleicious frames and fancies

The inside was decorated to match using another of the lovely sentiments

Or

*Something beginning with F*

hmmmm something beginning F had to be flowers for me. My friend is celebrating her 70th birthday so I wanted to make something a little special. I chose the lovely lantern template from The Lavender Tea collection.
I have made this before and although it looks tricky it really is'nt . It also builds quickly the longest part for me is the decorating although I find that really enjoyable. I use lots of blue-tac until I am completly sure what is going where.

 It looks quite red in the photo's but its a really deep pink in real life. I used a really lovely pearl stock card.  I wanted to match the flowers in so I decorated using
 Lemonade Fizz collection.

 I think they work perfectly together. All that was added to finish were some pearls, a little lace hanging down, a few fern dies and a battery operated candle

Oh and of course a matching card

Thank you for looking

The Hummingbird Collection

Happy Sunday , It's a little dull here in the South West but very, very humid!

I have Simply Cards & Papercraft delivered each month

and when it was delivered the other day I could not wait to play

What a stunning Hummingbird collection we were well and truly spoilt

I am very afraid of frogs in real life but this little chap was yelling at me to use him

I decided I wanted to use nice fresh colours of green and yellow with white

I started with a 6 x 6 white card blank

Using the freebie embossing folder which is 5 x 5

Cutting a hole in the center

Mounted onto some fresh green cardstock

I added in some bakers twine and adhered all to cardbase

With a slightly smaller die , cut another smaller circle

and then the stamps came into play

I stamped the frog and the sentiment using Memento ink Bamboo Leaves

Using Water paints to colour up
(using blue I flicked about for some effect - not much I'm not that brave!)

I then used the fern stamp around the edge

and attached with foam pads

For the Flowers I stamped them twice, the underneath flowers are painted as are the leafs

For the top flowers I used Brusho's Yellow and lemon 

added a few tiny pearls once dry and a little yellow stickles

Finished of with some faux stitching, a few fern leafs from a fern die and a button

Thank you for looking have a great day

Happy Sunny Sunday

Yesterday I was having a play with ink and stamps

Using

3 stamps, 3 inks, 3 colours I made 3 simple cards

All slightly different

I made 6 x 6 white card blanks to start

Then cut Orange/Green/lilac cardstock at 5.75 square

I cut out 9 2 x 2 in white matted onto the various colours and trimmed up

I embossed 3  5 x 5 white card stock using a dotty file

Then out came the Daisydays stamp set

For my first card I used Memento ink Morocco

Second I used Memento ink Pistachio

and finally Memento ink Elderberry

Once my stamping was completed , I put together all my cards using a slice of ribbon on each one - and then I gave the main flowers some centers using various pearls and such to match

Pretty Little Flowers - Birthday Cards

Happy Monday Everyone, those weekends sure do fly past.

I made a couple of cards yesterday very similar but I think they look so different

I made the pink one first - In the photo it looks more red but its actually bright pink!

I used a lovely 6 x 6 Embossing folder , mounted onto pink cardstock and popped a ribbon on and adhered to a white card base

I die cut a pink center and a plain white circle

Then the fun part I stamped the swirls ( I just adore this stamp ), Sentiment and tiny hearts

which I coloured to match

The flower petals are very easy and you can make them using a small circle die or punch, a couple of folds and there done

I dusted round with pickled rasberry distress ink 

Popped them on the card with 3 little gems.

I loved the effect so soon got an idea to make another, made exactly as above but using black cardstock. I used Brusho's on the petals this time , Scarlet, Lime Green with lemon  and Orange

and kept these in clusters of 3's.

Thank you for looking

Happy Sunday to you all

Here is my card that  I am sharing with you today

and this one is called

Mirabelle Pearl

I have used one of Sandra's cut files this one is called Multicard and you can find it here. I cut this on my portrait - what a beautiful shaped card it makes 

I cut it out on cream linen card as I love the classy look and feel it has.

Gave it a quick dusting round with distress ink wild honey 

I coloured her up using lyra pencils and then covered the image with thin netting, If you zoom in you can see it more clearly , I loved this effect.
I also used a smidging of Crystal Glitter on the pearl

I added a lovely strip of satin ribbon with pearls along the bottom

A strip of pearly bling across the top  and a few odd pearls scattered about

The Papers, Fish, Shells, Sentiment etc are all from

Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection

Q: Where did the fisherman and mermaid meet?

A: On line! (giggles)
