There is snow place like home



Time for another great challenge at Crafty Cardmakers this week.  The theme is Christmas with a twist, anything quirky or non traditional. You can also play along with an traditional Christmas card.

Our great sponsor this challenge is Woodware Craft Collection


"There is snow place like home for the holidays"  is the sentiment on my  card this week.  The digital image is by From the Heart Digital stamps and coloured the image with my Caran D'Ache water colour crayons, metallic pen, gelli pen and Posca pens. 

The trees are part of a set of rubber stamps by Stampers Anonymous - Tim Holtz collection. I used Stampin Up Ink on the trees and filled in some areas with my water colour brush. I also used glitter on the snow.  

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day. This is the last challenge of the year at Crafty Cardmakers hope you will join in this challenge.  Happy Holidays to you and your families and we will see you in 2017.

Steampunk Sally Tag



One of my favourite Yahoo Groups, Inky Fun Stampers is having a Steampunk  Tags swap and I made this tag for the swap.  I used a lot of different products to make this tag including rubber stamps from Quiet Fire Design, Stampers Anonymous  and a digitial stamp called Steampunk Sally from Delicious Doodles Shop.

I coloured my tag with Distress Ink Stains, added silver details with a silver outline pen and some texture with Distress embossing powder.   This was a fun tag to make and I hope my partner enjoys it. 

Thanks for stopping by today and have a creative week.

Colour Challenge, Midnight Muse, Bashful Blue and White


Colour challenge time at Come and Get it Challenges this week and the colours are Midnight Muse, Bashful Blue and White.   What a stunning colour combo. When I thought about the colours it brought to my mind one of my favourite blue Christmas ornaments. It was this  blue Christmas ornament that inspired my card.  

The Christmas ornament rubber stamp is by Stampers Anonymous. I layered the embossed ornament over white glossy paper that I embossed with a holly branch embossing folder,  added a sentiment by Arty Pants Digital Stamps and added a white bow and pearl.    

Thank you for stopping by.  Hope you will join us at Come and Get it this week. Have a creative day.
