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.

Embossed Backgrounds

I've been playing with my embossing folders, I embossed them with white card stock and inked them with sponge daubers and Distress inks.

Here I have used them on cards I made for online friends birthdays.

Embossing folder I used is a 140x140 square one by Kaszazz called Leaves #5444

The Cheery Lynn Anastatia border strip hides where my extended embossing wasn't quite perfect.

The flowers I made with the Cottage Cutz 3D flower no 4.

The leaves are Sue Wilson Orange Blossom Leaves die.

The embossing folder I used on this card was the Craft Concepts Secret Garden 5x7

Border is the Martha Stewart Doily Lace Border punch.

Flowers I made using the Die-namics Royal Rose, for the purple and white ones I just rolled the two colours together.

Leaves are from the Sue Wilson Christmas Rose Die set.

Hello Bloggers, I'm sorry for not having anything new to look at if you've visited lately. I seem to be working flat out but not accomplishing very much.

Below are three cards I made for FatCats Card Corner .

This one uses the new Cuttlebug Pinking Stitch Embossing folder with matching border.

I have cut small rectangles of three different papers and distressed around them with London fog Memento ink, my plan was to make it look like a patchwork quilt.

I then cut a strip of the same card stock and used the border folder first along one edge then the other.

The pretty leaves are the Flutter Vine Memory Box die

For this one I used the Crafters Workshop Chicken wire stencil (meant to represent a fishing net), and then embossed over it with the Fiskars texture plate Ocean.

I used the Marianne Creatables Lighthouse and Sea Shells to make my shaker card and used some sand from my grand daughters sandpit when they were little.

Some self-adhesive plaster board jointing tape, a self adhesive pearl swirl and  eyelets in the corners.  

For this card I used the Couture Creations Victorian embossing Folder and swiped over it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

The window is a Cheery Lynn Die.

Leaves are Marianne Creatables Leafy Stem

Flowers I made with the Marianne Craftable Circle Die

The butterflies are from a Stamp-It stamp set..

My last card is one I made from an idea Angie saw in a magazine which was to separate your two layers with some sort of swirl.

I used a quickkutz branches die and added some flowers made with a small Sakura punch and a Punch bunch mini asterix for the centres.

The corners were cut with the Martha Stewart String Lace Punch.

Thank you for taking the time to come and visit.

Debonair and Flowers 2

Hi, here's another card I made with the very versatile Craft Concepts Debonair Embossing folder.

Flowers were again made with the Cheery Lynn Large Rose die and the swirl is the Cheery Lynn Tropical Flourish Die

Thank you for taking the time to stop and visit

Debonair and Flowers

Hi Everyone,

Here's my latest card I have made for FatCatsCardCorner.

I've used the Craft Concepts embossing folder Debonair for the main focal point I embossed it on the Cranberry card and inked over some white ink and for the white pieces I inked over some Memento Rhubarb stalk ink (I also used this same ink to colour the flowers) , then cut the corner pieces off and glued them behind the red pieces.

The flowers and buds I made with the Cherry Lynn Large Rose Die

Thank you for taking the time to visit .

Aida Flower

Happy Monday.

Here's another card made for FatCatsCardCorner.

I have used the Nellie Snellen Multiframe die Round Lily cut in two different sizes threaded through some ribbon added flat backed pearls, layered them onto Craft Concepts Leafy Flourish embossing folder.

My flower was made with some left over Aida cloth cut with three different sized standard circles small nesties, scrunched and a brad added to the centre.

The sentiment is from the Stamp-it set Wording.

Button flower

I just have a very plain and simple card today.

I cut and embossed the top layer with the Marianne Creatables cut and emboss Frame folder, and then added some liquid pearls to the little raised dots of the half flowers.

The flower was made with the Marianne Creatables Rose and leaf die. Both products are available from FatCatsCardCorner 

Happy Birthday was stamped, and heat embossed with Green pearl embossing powder.
