Christmas card


I have made this Christmas card using a set of Tattered Lace dies. 

I cut the layers of the card in white and red card. I curled the layers with a rolling pin.

On the top layer I add a page from a Hunkydory book on one side and a sentiment cut with a Sue Wilson on the opposite side. I added the sentiment to die cut shapes before attaching them to my card. I completed my card with satin ribbon, holly flourishes cut with a Cheery Lynn die and poinsettia cut with Tattered Lace dies.

Christmas Lamp

 



I have made this Christmas decoration using dies from Claina Palmers Designs dies. I have made the lamp using black card, I added silver ink to all elements to create an authentic finish. I have added acetate to the windows. I bought LED flickering pillar candles from Hobbycraft and added one of them to the base. I decorated the lamp with poinsettia (cut with Marianne dies) and holly flourishes, cut with Cheery Lynn dies. I completed my creation with some gems.

21st Birthday card


I have made this easel card using 8x8in square card blanks. 

I covered the top and bottom of my card with kraft card and then blue and white gingham card. 

I printed the details and then die cut the elements using the following dies:

Scalloped circle - Xcut nesting circle set.
Banners - Sue Wilson
Fabulous at: Tonic Studios
Numbers: Tonic Studios
Stopper for the easel: Dies from a set from The Works

I added the rectangles onto the base of my card using foam pads, so it acts as a stopper for the top of my card.

21st Birthday Card

 


A very simple card. I was asked for the specific sentiment and the theme to be golf. I matt and layered my white card with blue, green and then white embossed card. I die cut the sentiments and also mounted them onto larger shapes before adding them to my card. I assembled those elements along with the picture

Gingerbread girl

 



 I have made this for a friend's child to take to school to give to her classmate.

I have used a cream DL card and covered it with kraft card and then red spotty cards. I cut the gingerbread girl out with a Cheery Lynn die. I added small pieces of card behind the eyes and the buttons. I die cut small circles and added the gingerbread element to the circle before adding it to my card. I die cut the banners with Sue Wilson dies and added the sentiment which is also cut with a Sue Wilson die.
