Moonbeam Meadow Hidden Doorway

Morning Crafty Folks!
This morning I'm back with a little card I made using the Create a Card 'Stacey' die. These dies are so versatile...I love how you can make little pull out elements and doors in your projects.

This little card features a stamp from Moonbeam Meadow coloured with Spectrum Noir Pens. (TB1, TB2, TB4, OR4, DG2, TN3, GB8) I created the little door to hide a sentiment inside.

Hope you like it!
Back soon

Trellis Flowers

Morning Crafters!
Here we go with the start of another Bank Holiday Weekend - I hope you have a great one!

Today I thought I'd share a dinky card using one of the new border dies from Crafter's Companion - this time the Trellis Edge cut into one of the new Create a Cards - this shape is called 'Ruth'. The flowers are made using the dies that come with the Gemini machine.
Hope you like it - I love the pink Coredinations and Kraft card together!
Bye for now x

O Holy Night

Afternoon Crafters!
Just popped by today to share a pop out card I made using the 'O Holy Night' Create a Card die from Crafter's Companion.

I cut one of the images from black card, inked through the die as a stencil and added gold Stickles as highlights to create the front panel. I cut a second image, which I scored in half to pop inside for the pop out. The vivid background was created using my Aquatints.

Hope you like this version. The Aquatints are great for making bright and bold backing papers!
Best wishes and bye for now

Over the Rooftops

Morning All!
And what a lousy morning it is here too! Grey, windy and wet! Hope things are better where you are!
Anyway, this morning I thought I'd share another card I made using the Crafter's Companion Create a Card  dies - this time 'Over the Rooftops'.

I cut the image from black card and used silver ink to bring out the stencilled detail. The landscape at the bottom of the die I cut several times to add to the bottom of the card and also to make an edge to act as a stopper on my easel card. The background is white Sheena Stamping card run through the Textures distress folder as I thought it looked a bit snowy.

Hope you like it. i'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Box of Delights

Morning Crafters!
It's a sunny morning here but I'm still going to share a wintry project with you all! lol!
Today I thought I'd show you a gift box I made using two cuts of the 'Christmas Eve' Create a Card die.

I made a little half inch tab down each side and stuck the two pieces together, added a snowy acetate window, and then made a box lid and base on my Ultimate Pro to fit.

The little square panel became a tag and I added a bow and embellishments on the top. Ideal for a candle or sweets.

Hope you like it!

Best wishes

Fireside Flames

Just thought I'd pop by and share a wee bit more Crafter's Companion Create a Card inspiration - this time using the Fireside die.

This is a fab die to use with black card - I tried to make it pop by putting it against an Aquatint background. Hope you like it!
Best wishes and bye for now

Orient Aquatints

Morning All!
Only one more day to go until the Crafter's Companion One Day Wonder on Create and Craft. Yesterday I shared a card I made using the We Three Kings die, today I'd like to show you how different you can make the same die look.

This time I used black card, inked with bronze ink and given a quick squirt of Spray and Shine. I then created a background using my Aquatints...I think the bright colours really set off the image. Finally I added a wee bit of gold glitter and a sentiment.
Hope you like it!

Three Wise Men

Hi Everyone!
I love the Create a Card dies from Crafter's Companion, and if you do too, you'll be pleased to know that a Christmas range of thses dies will be featuring as a One Day Wonder on Create and Craft this Thursday.

I was lucky enough to be able to work with some of these dies so I thought I'd share one of my samples with you here. Here I made a stepper card using the Three Wise Men die, Centura Pearl card and blue Core'dinations. I inked through the die to bring out the detail and decorated the card with a bow, gems and a sentiment.
Hope you like it!
Best wishes and bye for now
