Pink Christmas

Another beautiful Christmas card made entirely from Dreamees products. All from my freebies which I get every month as a member of their website. £5/yr bargain.

Anyway... I layered pink and cream first as a background and then decided to half and half the card with a snowflake border across the middle. I then added the Christmas baubles image. 

I added some cream stars and made some pink flowers and some rolled roses to embellish and finished it all off my layering a Happy Christmas sentiment stamp and sticking that on with foam pads. 

Finished result, may not be traditional Christmas but I like it. 

Thanks for dropping in

Magical Christmas

Made this card using the Berry Wreath from Dreamees and a selection of Dreamees papers. I layered them all up and included a little doily then added lots of flowers and some buttons for extra detail.

I finished it off by adding glitter glue for a bit of sparkle xx 

Hope you like. Comments appreciated

Steam Punk 2

Another go at a Steam Punk Card.

 

I embossed a piece of grey card using a Darice embossing folder and my Spellbinder Grand Caliber and did the same with a piece of gold mirror card so that I had the cogs.

 

I stamped a pocket watch and compass using my Dreamees stamps and distressed them in Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink.

 

To make the card up, I started off with a brown background and layered the two embossed pieces at angles with a piece of lace which I had purchased from Dreamees a little while ago in between and a Tim Holtz tag through which I tied a small piece of velvet ribbon. I slotted the watch and the compass behind the card.

 

The mannequin is from a die cut set Delphine Card Toppers by Kanban which I purchased from the Craftstation in Kirkby in Ashfield.

 

I'm really quite pleased with the result. Thanks for calling by, please feel free to comment.

Steam Punk

 

Love this Kenny Kiernan image "Lady Victoria" and decided to have a go at a Steam Punk card.

The card itself is just short of 6" square. I then used a Darice embossing folder to create the cogs on the dark grey piece of card and layered both it and a piece of lilac corrugated card at angles. Using the embossing folder I created some white cogs, I cut them out and distressed them with spun sugar distress ink.

I coloured the image with Spectrum Noir pens PP1 and LV1 for the dress and cape and used BGR2 for the boots and cane. I added a Tim Holtz tag which I'd purchased from one of my favourite suppliers Dreamees to finish the card off.

Christmas

Been missing for a little while again, trying to organise my craft room so it works better, especially as it doubles up from time to time as a massage room... :-)

I decided I needed to make a start on my Christmas cards and here are a couple. 

They were both made layering some gold mirror card, green checked and plain green paper and red glitter card I had in stock with the addition of a doily and some crispy lace ribbon from Dreamees. The centre pieces, the Recipe of Christmas and the Berry Wreath are Dreamees stamps too.

I'm really happy with the way these two turned out plenty on them but still look quite simple and elegant.

Teal n Pink

Beautiful little notebook. Created for the sister of a friend.

Layered in teal and pink using an image from card making magazine which my friend chose from a selection I had. 

I attached a piece of broderie anglais ribbon round one of the layers and added a couple of flowers from a Dreamees cd (Templates and More I think) and some handmade roses both rolled and petalled! X 

I am told her sister loved it which is what I like to hear xx

Thanks for calling by.  x

Pearl Anniversary Card

This card was for a pearl anniversary card a work colleague asked me to make after she'd seen another one I'd made but she specifically requested peach not pink.

The papers were printed from Dreamees CDs as were the flowers. I think Simply Sweet. 

I decorated the inside too using the same papers and a verse chosen from a selection by the purchaser. 

I used liquid pearls in the centre of the flowers. 

All in all very happy with the result x
