Saturday Sketch New DT Card ..Happy Print Club Printables

Hiya for this new DT I have started it is a bit different for me ,First it is using a sketch for the design of the card ,I have never done that ,but it is fun and for my first card the sponsor is Happy Print Club,and they are great for lovely images like this one that I have used today and of course many more for all occasions..
I printed mine several times and decoupaged mine to make it 3D  and popped it onto a pretty lilac slightly oblong card to which I have just added a simple pen outline background to it ,this has kept it very soft and pretty without detracting from the main image.,This was then mounted onto some Purple Centura Pearl..The backing Papers for this card were from Firs Editions Mulberry kissed and these were also mounted onto the same Centura card..The whole card was made from just one sheet of white with a hint of gold Centura pearl,which I folded as you can see in the picture..I dont think the measurements would help as they would be different for every card ,but the box bit at the back I have made at about one and a half inch depth ,this helps the card to stand even with the weight of the topper on it ..But the width and where you pop it is up to you in your own design..Then I added a brace bar across the bottom ,Ideally I would use a small Magnet or even velcro ,that would allow the one end to be detatched and allow the card to fold for posting..If you popped the brace lower you could pop one of those battery lights in and it would look pretty on a Christmas card too ..Thank You for popping by :)xx

Sasayaki Glitter Challenge Reminder

Hiya ..for today's card I used super cute Christmas Penguin ..He is coloured onto Neenah card using Polychromos Pencils. This was then mounted onto Centura Pearl in a nice gold colour as were the backing card and papers.This added a nice softness against the stunning Kanban Christmas card I have used to adorn the front of the card with..I used a Just Rite die ,Stitched banners and rectangles to cut out the penguin and its backing card and I used a First edition Christmas Sentiment die for the sentiment..The snowflakes are from China and I do not know the name of them sorry ,but they are just stunning ..I then used Tonic Nuvo glitter drops on the main image in the corners to add a little sparkle and places some pretty snowflake gems around the card..These are multi coloured and under normal light show more green than blue ..Thank you for visiting :)xx

613 Avenue Create Challenge Card

Hiya ,today's card has a beautiful image on from A Day with Daisies Digi on it ,I love their stamps ,a little different from every one else's ,but they always look special on a card or project. I have coloured it in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card..Then cut out with Tattered Lace bascic notched rectangles,I then drew around some faux stitching and mounted it onto a pretty green backing card cut from the same dies but obviously the next size up...For the main card I have used A beautiful patterned Kanban foiled Christmas sheet of card, This was mounted onto the green card too.For the decoration I wanted to keep it reasonably light so I cut a few snowflakes in various sizes using some dies i purchased from Honkong and clustered these here and there..Instead of putting bling in the middle of the snowflakes I used the Tonic Nuvo in the triangle bottom that gives structure snow or balls with a twinkle ..I have added extra picture in which you can click on and see them more closely,and see the card ,which is a really great quality ..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Saturday Inspiration Morgans Artworld

Hiya ,Today's card for my inspiration is following the theme of Using embossing Wet or Dry..I have used Embossing folders from Crafter's Companion ..sorry I do not know which on as it is not labeled and do not have the packaging. I Coloured the image in using Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card ,Then mounted onto craft card then white card..The colours I chose were inspired by the beautiful sunrise we had the other morning..For the embossed card I used Centura Pearl in a deep teal ,it is beautiful embossed as it really gives it depth and definition I think plain card does not give.The rose die is from one of Sara;s English Country Garden and coloured with SN Sparkle pen. And the flourish from Butterfly Lullaby..The tag is a Happy Birthday tag from Docraft's..To finish I added some pretty yellowish beige faux pears..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Digital Delights By Louby Lou New Release

Hiya for todays New release card I have coloured with my usual Polychromos pencils onto Neenah card,this was then mounted onto Red Centura Pearl .I then added some flat loose glitter to the tree for sparkle  and origionally added it to the roof ,but it looked gloopyand wishy washy  and in the end I removed it and used Tonic Nuvo(  in the triangle shaped bottle which is a stand up glitter) ,so this actually stays white and although a bit shiny it sparkles like snow on the roof and on the floor of the kennel.. I put this to one side to dry whilst I went on to do the main card.
Fot this First Editions Vintage Noel was used ,Beautiful rich papers and having the Santa in the one circle was a bonus as it fit in with the theme nicely..I added the topper with 3D glue gel and then the sentiment that came with the kit,I trimmed the outer circle down as I wanted to add some red card around it without it looking too big ,as it had been printed slightly too big..To finish I added two bown with White,silver and red on ,one to each side of the image.. Thank you for popping by :)xx
