Fairyopolis - POPPY FAIRY

 

I was blown away when I saw FAIRYOPOLIS on Create & Craft TV. Magnificent and beautiful. 

This Poppy Fairy captured my imagination with its colour of red. Red is my favourite colour. It didn't take me long to print a sheet of beautiful script  backing paper on my modest inkjet printer and a decoupage Poppy Fairy image. 

After having cut out everything, I distressed the paper and  free hand cut  swirls; and glued everything on my square card (square cards are my weakness).

The image was embelished with three pink roses previously distressed with aged mahogony ink.

Pets and Bags

I am not a great fashionista, but couldn't resist these lovely pets in nice bags. These stamps come from  one of the latest collections from Design Objectives: PAMPERED PETS.

Both  are very affordable and gave me an enormous pleasure to work with and make nice little cards. DO Crafts products were used entirely through both of the little projects with the exeption of   Promarkers used for colouring.

Blue Lady and Golden Boy share the same principles of card making. After I have stamped the images, coloured them with Promarkers, and  glittered  and mounted them on the square cards layered with different papers.The final touches were some buttons, a flower and a ladybird.

Make a Wish - For my mother

Words are not necessary to describe this card. I did it for my mother and for her birthday that is approaching. Magic ingredients are:

• Debbie Moore CD -  Bella's Secret Garden
• Promarkers
• Tim Holtz distressing ink
• Gold and siver pearls
• Shiny flakes and glitter; and 
• A touch of love ;-)

Kiss

Playing with Crafter's Companion SWALK  new collection is fantastic. It is so beautiful to work with them.
My favourite is the KISS stamp plate.It was not difficult to work with it.

Make a gate fold card ( using your Ultimate Pro or whatever you have) and stamp over the folds. Colour the images with Promarkers and decorate with papers inside and outside the card. Punch some paper flowers, edge them with some pink ink. Glue them on the folds which can also be decorated with some green gems too.

Stamp the image once again. Colour it,  cut it out with your Cuttlebug and stick it inside after it has been edged with some pink in. The card is ready.
Ingridients:

• Cardstock
• UltimatePro
• Designer papers or SWALK CDs

Blue Valentine Popcorn

Valentine's here again, so I have decided to make it blue for my husband this year. And it works well, especially with that little football embelishment.

This little stepper card is an easy make. Just take a pre-folded square card and fold it into a stepper card. Embelish with some navy card stock, stamped Popcorn and Biscuit, some glitter and gems. The result is a beautiful card.

One more little calendar - Tilda this time

There are so many people I wanted to make a calendar for this year, but I couldn't manage. That's why, I am trying to do it now regardless of being a half way through in February. It is never too late.

A Good Luck Card - Appley Dapply CD and Stamp Set

Crafter's Companion immortalised one more book from the Beatrix Potter Collection. And this new set - Appley Dapply - is so beautiful.  Not only is it for the young, but also for the old as well.

One of my colleagues was leaving and I just did not know what card to make. He himself gave me an idea while talking about his late hampster, so I decided in a second to make him a little guinea pig. Oh, what a surprise it was yesterday.
The procedure to make it was easy : Print the papers and inserts from the CD, stamp the image with the black Momento ink pad and colour with Promarkers, cut out backing cards with Cuttlebug, stamp Good Luck, assemble everything  together and tie with a piece of brown organza ribbon.  Finish off with a bit of gold spray over the card.
Ingridients:

• Appley Dapply CD and a stamp set - Beatrix Potter Collection from Crafter's Companion
• A sheet of Neenah Classic Crest Card from Crafter's Companion
• Gold Mirri card
• Supersmooth printing paper
• Promarkers
• Brown organza ribbon
• Momento ink pad
• Lots of love
