Asian Elephant


This week I started making an atc but it turned into this card! All stamps I have used are from Tanda Stamps. I stamped the elephant with versafine Vintage Sepia then added white gell pen and gems to his head dress. I then embossed all the other images in gold.

Thanks!


Another card for a teacher this time a thank you! I have made good use of Linda's butterfly design stamp today - well I think it is so pretty especially once it's all glittered up! I cut the words with my quickutz revolution and added gems and a bindi.

White Birdy


Allison's challenge this week is to stamp in white! I 've had this white stamp pad for ages but never really used it so this was a very good chance! I added a sticky acrylic gem thingy for the eye. Ribbon, ric rac braid and a charm are the finishing touches.

Ta!


This is a card made with my friend Linda's butterfly design rubber stamp. The butterfly wings have been glittered with black and silver stickles and they have been given bindi bodies. I finished it off with 3 black gems. Hope Linda approves!!

Words of Wisdom!


Allison's challenge this week is "words, words,words" so this gave me a chance to dust my favourite quote stamp off again. The background and butterfly are PaperArtsy stamps I have just got and this has been my first chance to play with them. The butterfly has a pretty bindi body and of course I added some ribbon - well I had to cause I put tape there to stick the vellum!!!

Philip's Birthday!

Happy Christmas


Another christmas card for my order of two. This time for a child so I thought this snowman might be good.
I added some touches of snow with stickles. Words and letters from a Brenda Pinnick kit.

Numbers


For this weeks challenge I started with the paper artsy number stamp. I stamped it with brown versafine then punched the edge with a stampin' up binder punch and inked the edges. I stamped lots of other images using the same ink and inked all the edges. The daisy was then stam,ped onto white paper and cut out - bindis have been added to the centre.
The butterfly has been made to sparkle with stickles and a bindi body. I finished it off with a phototurn and a couple of brads.

Christmas Already?


Another order this time for two christmas cards! I actually quite enjoyed making this cause I've not done anything christmassy for a while. I managed to fit in some ribbon and a sprinkling of sparkles so I'm happy Smile

Embossed Card


Here is a dry embossed acceptance card I made today. I wanted to keep it as simple as possible so I only added a ribbon and small butterfly. I don't do dry embossing often so I was pleased with the end result!

Birthday Boy


Where has the time gone? Ages since I have had time to make anything to put on my blog!
So here is a card I have been asked for by a friend - it's for a 15 year old so I have kept it simple.

Four Seasons


For this challenge I made a canvas. I started by colouring the canvas with a pale green dabber. Then I stamped with brown stazon some swirls by Basic Gray. Then the four seasons of a tree from Hero Stamps were stamped onto some mountboard I had also coloured with various colours of dabbers. I then highlighted leaves and flowers with a white gel pen. The word seasons was stamped with brown stazon onto mountboard and then covered with glossy accents. It was all finished off with two silver dragonfly brads and silver dabber around the edges.
