365 Cards

Here's a card I've made for Day 69 challenge at 365 cards - the theme is 3 B's - Blue, Black and Button.
The image i've used is from Joanna Sheen Dancing with Shadow's CD. The backing paper is from Dovecraft and I've embossed some Core'dinations card with Spellbinders M-Bossabilities - Flower Fun.
The sentiment and faux buttons were created on My Craft Studio and I've added glaze to the buttons to make then more dimensional.

Christmas in Autumn

The challenge this week at Winter Wonderland is to use the colours of Autumn in a christmas card. I'm also entering this card into Christmas cards all year round, where the theme is to use at least one of the Halloween colours (orange, green, purple, black).

I've used backing papers and topper from MCS - Winter Wishes CD. I've also stamped and embossed a bauble from Kanban and coloured in the Spectrum Noirs direct onto the printed topper. Extra small snowflakes have been stamped and embossed on to the topper too.  The frame was cut out on my Craft Robo and inked with Big and Juicy Foliage, the borders were made using a Martha Stewart punch.

Natures Wonder

I'm a bit late entering Cd sunday challenge this week. The theme is Natures Wonder. I've used an image and backing paper from MCS CD - Winter Wonderland and gold paper from my stash. I've added glitter to the image and backing paper but it hasn't shown up very well in the picture.

Trimming the Tree

Here's my card for this weeks challenge at 'Winter wonderland' the theme is 'Trim a Tree'.
I've used an image, backing papers and sentiment from MCS Bunny Snuffles CD and a Christmas tree embellishment from my stash.

Red and Green Christmas

The current challenge at Sparkles forum christmas challenge is Red and green.

My entry uses an image and backing paper from My Craft Studio Winter winderland cd, which I've layed onto co-ordinating cardstock and added glitter to the backing paper and image.

Easel Card

This easel card uses a frame stamp from Joanna Sheen (that i've had for ages, but for some reason never used!) for the main image. The frame has been embossed using Sheena Douglass 'Wow' embossing powders in black. The flower is also a Joanna Sheen stamp from one of  the Jane Netley Meyhew stamp ranges, which I stamped with black soot Distress ink and coloured with ProMarkers. I've found that Black Soot Distess ink works really well with ProMarkers and the image can be coloured staright away with no bleeding of the distress ink.

The inside edge of the frame has also been colured with ProMarkers, but I inked the outer edge and the edge of the sentiment with Big N Juicy waterfall ink.

The backing paper is from MSC Tattered lace CD, which I added glitter to the detail at the bottom. The butterflies were stamped onto the same BP and embossed with white embossing powder.
