Card for a dog lover

 Our grand daughter Tazman loves her dogs and, so I thought it appropriate to make her a Birthday card with a dog on it.

I used one of the dogs from Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs Stamp set and coloured it with copics.
The colours I used were:

Dog E35 - E33- Y23     Nose C7-C5-C3
Tongue R24 - R-22        Ears R20    Collar V17-V06.

The background I created by using a piece of sequin waste as a stencil and sponged through some Pink Thistle Opal Polish by Creative Expressions.

Snugglepot and Cuddlepie

Kaaren from Fat Cats Card Corner sent me this cute Snugglepot and Cuddlepie cling stamp from Paper Roses.

I've coloured them with copics and hand drawn a leaf for them to be sitting on.

The Sue Wilson Ocean Waves Pinpoint embossing folder looked like the leaves and wattle from a Wattle tree so added some colour to the raised embossed bits also using copics.

I also used the Sue Wilson Scalloped Lattice Frame die set.

And here is a version of the cute stamp done in Christmas Colours again using copics to colour.

The Sue Wilson Ocean Waves Pinpoint embossing folder was used again and the lovely border die they are sitting on is the Paper Roses Madison Lace Edge die.

Happy Christmas die is from Cheery Lynn.

This card was made using The Sue Wilson Ocean Waves Pinpoint embossing folder

again as well as the Paper Roses Madison Lace Edge die.

the Flowers are Sue Wilson Striped Nasturtiums and the With Sympathy die is from the Crafters Companion Die'sire range.

Leonie Pujol Rag Doll

I have two more cards to share that I made for Kaaren at Fat Cats Card Corner.

The dies I've used are:
the leonie Pujol Rag Doll Stamp set
Sue Wilson Tropical Hibiscus Die set
Spellbinders Emmeline Treillage - Venice Lace

I've used the leonie Pujol Rag Doll Stamp set to do some copic colouring, paper piecing and added glossy accents to the hearts in her hair, her patent leather shoes lol, the star in her hands and the Happy Everything.


I also used the Sue Wilson-Tropical Hibiscus die set and the Memory Box/Poppy stamps lavender Stems left Corner Die.

More Orchids

There isn't  much crafting going on here as we are in the process of moving, from a rather roomy two bedroom unit into a very small two bedroom unit.

It's going to be a bit of a challenge fitting my sewing set up and my craft room into one small bedroom but it's a challenge I'm up for.

In the meantime here are two more orchid cards I made a while back, one for a sister in laws 60th birthday and the other for our youngest daughters birthday.

And then there was this gold fish slider card I made for our great grandsons 2nd birthday.

Friends

The group I belong to Penny Flowers Craft and Chat

had a card swap with a friendship Theme,

the criteria was, make a card with something that points to the meaning of FRIENDSHIP..  

This is the card I made for my swap partner... good friends are like a comfy pair of PJ'S.

The stamp is Art Impressions "Girlfriends" which I coloured with copics.

The dies I used are the:

Poppy Stamps - Grand Madison French Doors

Marianne Creatables - Chair and Lamp

Cheery Lynn - Flourish leaf strip

Impression Obsession - Tiny Flowers

Impression Obsession - Layered Floral set

Memory Box - Typewriter - Uppercase.

A Baby and a Droid (Card)

I had a request for a baby card, sex of baby not known, which makes it difficult to come up with a colour scheme to use, the last one I did for the same lady I did in lemon so my choice this time was lavender.

I used a Nellie Snellen pontura card from which I cut the front and layered it onto the lavender card, white, lavender and finally the white card base.

The welcome banner is a Joy Crafts Die, the little flowers are from the mini EK Success Retro Flower Punch.

The next card request was for either a Star Wars or Ninja theme, I went for Star Wars and found an R2D2 colouring image on the internet which I coloured with my copics, I added some balloons cut with a free die that came with a craft magazine, the background is the Couture Creations Entangle embossing folder.

Thank you for looking.
