X-mas Diva

Christmas Divas - Debbi Moore  is one of my most favourite CD ever. I just love the overall art on it and the way it was one.

The card was easy to make after having printed a backing paper and the image from the CD itself. It took me 15 minutes to make this lovely X-mas card.

Black, Red and Grey

I love this card as it is done in in more or less three colour variations : black, red and grey. 

To make it I used LOTV stamp that I stamped on a super smooth card with my alcohol pens. I even coloured the background paper which I embossed and mounted all on black Core'dinations. To spice up I added the sentiment from one of Makey Backey's Chrostmas stam sets. 

Not bad at all ;-)

Tool and Materials used:

LOTV image

Spectrum Noir acohol pens ( all ice greys and black, reds: DR3 and DR5)

All Purpose Collall glue

Die'sire Embossalicious X-mas Folder : Mistletoe

Makey Backey X-mas message stamp from one of the stamps

Neenah Solar White card

Some pearls and a snowflake

Core'dinations Card -black

A coffee table decoration

I love the new embossing boards from Crafter's Companion. They are what they are name says  SWEET TREATS.

On one of them I say a triangular shape which made me think :-) and while I was thinking, an idea just came and developed into this small and lovely Christmas decoration :-)

This little project can be used in many different ways. You can hang in on your Christmas tree, use it as a little gift box or just simply intend it for a coffee table. ..

My 2013 Christmas Cards

 I am late with Christmas cards this year. Lots of different things distracted me from my favourite hobby: if I wasn’t moving house, cleaning and working, then it was just that I was just too tired to make myself make something and then recording it.

So, this is the chance to show everything that I have made in last few days.The basic material is all the same and mostly from Crafter’s Companion with the few exceptions : Debbi Moore, Tattered Lace, Lili of the Valley and DO crafts basic card blanks. All small embellishments come from different little sources.

The frist set of cards is from Crafter's Companion:

• SWALK stamps,
• Makey Bakey Christmas stamps

The second set of cards is from Lili of the Valley

 It was fun using these in conjunction with Spectrum Noir pens and Crafter's Companion embossing folders. Love the final results.

The third set is Debbi Moore's Christmas Divas CD.

 I just love these and could not resist to have a go. The final result is gorgeous and these easel cards just stand different. 

This green is my favourite one.

And, the last fourth set was made with the Tattred Lace Christmas dies.

I also used Crafter's Companion embossing folders and Xmas stams from the same company.

Christmas is coming slowly....

Chrismas is coming slowly and, I could not resist one of the new stamps:Crafter's Companion The Makey Bakey Mice collection. Just love this little fella and it was easy to make this card. It is all Crafter's Companion:

• The Makey Bakey  Christmas stamp: Holly Jolly Christmas
• Spectrum Noir pens
• Neenah Solar White card
• Tattered Lace Christmas dies: Snowflakes
• Die'sire Embossalicious X-mas Folder

Weddings

It is that time of the year when people make weddings. Love is all around us.

The card presented here was made for my colleague who wanted to buy it for her friend's wedding.

 

It was mostly made with the Crafter's Companion products :

• Darice emobossing folder
• SWALK stamp
• Spectrum Noir pens
• Neenah sper smooth
• Centura Pearl card

There were other bits and bobs too (lace,vellum, paper flowers), but I cannot remember who from:-)

For Men in Our Lives

Sometimes it is difficult to run away from the usual  images for men in our lives: fishing, football, snoring on a couch, and of that sort when we are trying to make cards for them.










Debbi Moore' s Shabby Chic Mechanical CD came as a perfect rescue to me as I made a 3D birthday card for my husband's birthday.







It was just click and print and assemble into a beautiful card. My husband was overjoyed this morning when he found it on his PC.

The materials and tools that I used for this project are the following:

• Shabby Chic Mechanical CD - Debbi Moore
• Neenah Solar White Card - Crafter's Companion
• Collall glue
• Construction Acetate - Crafter's Companion
• Epiphany Tool - Crafter's Companion
