Wee Florist

Its a great day for crafting, its snowing outside and that means indoor activities only!  The fire is roaring and its nice and toasty.  This is  another nice little stamp from Wee stamps, this ones called Wee Florist. I was mucking around with this for ages, mainly with the papers.  The colour is soo not me.  At last this is the end result.  The card is from American crafts, two colours, butter and mint, and basil cardstock in black.  The papers are Prima, Annalee collection called poetry. Lots of glitter and glitz with gold stickles and glitter, Martha Stewart lemon seam binding for the bow, and butterflys. The flowers are from W.O. crafts, and the image is coloured with w/c pencils.  I have entered this card in Southern Girls challenge 23 Happy Birthday, CLP Sketch (as above) and The Paper Shelters  GREEN!  Thanks for looking :-)

This is Lylah, a stamp from Tickled Pink Stamps Victorian range, very cute.  Ive used vintage blue flat surface card, with a peach flocked spot card - from tea at Elsies by Kaisercraft.  Some handmade black paper which is embossed with crystalina sits on top of the  white doily  from W.O. Crafts as are the flowers.  The tag is the new die out from Magnolia - along with hearts flourish. The edging is punched with a Martha Stewart round the page punch set, and finally the sentiment is from Whimsey stamps. Im entering this card Tickled Pink Emmas sketch, Southern Girls Anything Goes, and The paper Shelter challenge 18 punches and dies.  Tks for looking have a great day :-)

WINTER

This is a card that makes you feel chilly.  The challenge over at Craft and Create is to depict the season where you live.  Ive used the very cute Wee stamp called winter fairy and coloured her with w/c  pencils, the wings and snow are glittered with stickles.The sentiment is sitting on the new Doo Hickey tag die, along with the Magnolia heart swirl. I have added some beads to the crystal pin which is nice for a change.  The flowers are from W.Orchid.  Have a nice day and thanks for looking :-)

Celebration

Good morning, a dull gloomy day, just right for indoors!  I have made this card for my brother in laws 63rd  birthday.  Hes a hard case and likes a joke, so I though that this would be ideal.  The image is another cutie  from The Paper Shelter.
Ive covered the dancers costume withred glitter and she has diamonds for a necklace.  The checked paper is from Pavlova, and the stars I stamped out myself, the sentiments I made myself and ribbon is from my stash.  Im entering this card in the celebration challenge over at The Paper Shelter. 

Xmas Card

Getting started early for Xmas cards lol,  this is a Tickled Pink stamp called Lestat, and hes cool.  I made his hat, so that he looks nice and Xmas like.  Other than Santa there are not many male images for Xmas cards.  The papers are from Kaisercraft Xmas range from last year, and the sentiment I made.  Ive entered this card into Southern Girls challenge and a Chrstmas challenge over at tickled pink.  The sun is out so am hoping to have a nice day. Thanks for looking :-)

Queens Birthday Weekend in NZ

Its been a while, dont know where the time goes.  Ive asssembled a new version of this easel card which I have always had a soft spot for. This is a stamp from tickled pink stamps called Evie.  Ive put some hat netting over the top half of the image for a different twist, and an ostrich feather for a bit of glam.  I have entered this card over at Claudia and Co challenge for fancy folds.  Hope to get some more cards made today, its windy and getting chilly.

This is the card opened, its simple, but some times less is more.  The black checked paper is from pavaloa papers. Flowers, pins, gems from stash.  Lace edging punch from Martha Stewart.  Thanks for looking, have a nice long weekend :-)
