So Stinkin' Cute

Hello crafty friends. I hope you had a fabulous Christmas! I will be back in the swing of things next week as at the moment I'm spending some much needed time with my lovely family. It is Thursday though which means my usual DT card for Time For Tea Designs. This time I've created a simple scene with some cute skunks...

I started out by creating a gently blended background using my Mermaid Lagoon & Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inks. I then added some splats of water with a paint brush. I mounted the panel onto a white card with foam. All the images are from the Stinkin' Cute Stamp Set which I stamped and coloured with my Copics. I added some white dots on the mushroom with a white pen. I used the coordinating Stinkin' Cute Dies to cut them out. I heat embossed the sentiments in white onto black card and die cut them with the dies. I arranged all the images onto my panel and attached them in place with glue and foam pads.

Oh So Merry!

Good morning fello crafters! I'm currently in self isolation as both myself and my daughter have covid. I haven't felt up to creating any cards sadly but I had this one I hadn't blogged yet so I thought I would share it with you guys...

Just a simple Christmas one! This one features Reverse Confetti Polar Party Stamps. I coloured each of them with Copics and cut them out. I created a splash effect background using some Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink with some water on watercolour card. I added some splats with glimmer mist for added sparkle. I added some glitter and gloss to parts of the coloured images too. The sentiment is from Mama Elephant Everything Nice Stamp Set. I cut them out with the coordinating dies. To finish I added some clear gems.

Dachshund Through The Snow

Hello fellow crafters. I am still trying to squeeze in a few more Christmas cards. I've actually run out of ready ones so I need to create a few more! It's time for my usual Thursday post for Time For Tea Designs. This time I used one of the new releases featuring some super cute Dachshunds...

I started off by creating the background. I used the Boho Tiles Stencil to create a lightly embossed background onto kraft card. I used one of the papers from the Joyful Winter Paper Pad and die cut it with one of the circle dies from the Simple Circles Dies. I created a mini circle scene using the circle dies again along with some of the trees from the Slimline Mini Village Dies. I used one of the stitched dies from the Landscape Edge Dies. I added some snow to the sky using a white pen. I then used the Stop Dachshund Around Stamp Set for the cute dog. I coloured him with copics and popped him onto foam pads. I added the sentiments from the same stamp set and finished by adding some sequins.

Time For Tea Designs Dies - Simple Circles, Landscape Edge Dies, Slimline Mini Village

Miss You

Good morning! Sorry I haven't been around much lately. I often go a bit quiet in December but I will post as and when I can. Can't believe it's only two weeks until Christmas it's flown by! Today I am sharing one of my cards that was made for my Full Shaker Panel project...

This one was featured in Crafts Beautiful along with another two cards. I had so much fun creating these! I created the background first. I used the Taylored Expressions Butterflies Stamp & Stencil Combo. I used various Distress Oxide Inks (Kitsch Flamingo, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Salvaged Patina) to create a rainbow effect background. I scored and wrapped some acetate around the background and filled it with gems, sequins and pearls before sealing it shut. I mounted it onto blue card and onto a card blank. I used my favourite sentiment stamps the Concord & 9th Big On You Stamps & Die Set to add the sentiments.


Supplies;
Taylored Expressions Stamp & Stencil Combo - Butterflies
Concord & 9th Stamps - Big On You

I started out by creating my background. I blended Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed. I blended a small strip of just the yellows and added it to the bottom. I splattered the panel with some water and also grey ink. The images are all from the Baked With More Love Stamp Set. I coloured all of them with my Copics and fussy cut them out. I die cut the hugs word from black and white using the Hugs Stitched Sentiment Die. I used the Black Polka Dot Washi Tape to create a fishtail shape mini banner. I added some clear gems onto the card to finish.

Jumping With Joy

Hello crafty friends. Today I am back to share my latest card for Time For Tea Designs. This one features a sweet autuminal scene featuring some of the brand new release products...

I started off by creating the background. I blended Dried Marigold and Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Inks together onto a piece of white slimline card. I then blended some Bundled Sage Distress Oxide onto a strip of card and die cut it using the Grass Die from the Slimline Hillside Scene Dies. I used the new Winter Trees Die and cut out four trees from kraft card then added them to each end. I used the Jumping With Joy & Stinkin' Cute Stamp Sets so I could add extra characters from each set. I coloured them all with Copics and cut them out with the Coordinating Dies. I stamped and die cut the sentiment too then added all my pieces onto the card with foam pads.

Not Another Birthday

Good morning! Today is the day, it's release day over at Clearly Besotted Stamps. The new release will be available tonight at 8pm GMT. I have my final card to share with you which features another new stamp set...

The stamps I used are from the Clearly Besotted Birthday Boycott Stamp Set. I think it's hilarious, there are so many funny sentiments in this set perfect for those who hate birthdays! I created a simple blended background onto a slim card blank using Salvaged Patina Distress Ink. I then added a handrawn border around the piece. I added a strip of washi tape then stamped the sentiment directly onto the card. I added the images with foam pads and added some clear gems to finish.
