Cute Christmas Critters - Polkadoodles

 Hi Everyone!

So today I have created this Christmas home scene using some Cute Critters and a Tree digital image from Polkadooles 

This has been created using the .png images in word. This is super easy

1. Cut and paste the image into word

2. right click on the image and select Wrap Text and then select Through. This means that you can then move the image around and even have them go through/ in front/ behind another image. 

Simple as that. 

The scene was then created using Promarkers

I always set the scene out with a light colour to begin and then build the colour on top of that. 

I also start with the background - Just in case I make a mistake I can start again

I hope you like it!

Xmas Happy Elf - SD

Hi everyone! 

Using a digital image from Stampers Delights today, which is part of their Progressive challenge image - Follow their fakebook face for more info and to join in the challenge  - HERE

These cute elf have been coloured with ProMarkers and fussy cut.

I distressed the base of the Slimline card with Blending Brushes and Tim Holtz Distress inks - Aged Mahogany, Candied Apple, mustard seed, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn 

I then die cut a Thin Lined Slimline die in white card - I glued to the back of that die cut a piece of acetate and timed to fit. I used Double layer of foam tape all around the edge of the die cut, on the acetate side, to give the diminution. I then used a bit of baby powder on a brush to remove the static from the acetate.

I placed the sequins, snow and glitter on the base of the card and then glued the Dice cut section on top of the card and the shaker elements. 

Finally I glued on the elf's, sentiment and the acrylic gems to complete. 

Hope you like it!

Christmas Hair - KS

Hey everyone! 

So today i have card made using the image from Krista Smith from the former Saturated Canary  caller Xmas Hair.

She is supper adorable, and i have always loved colouring Krista's Images

The Image has been printed on Bright White Smooth card from Limetree Crafts and coloured with Promarkers
I used circular dies to die cut a 6x6 red card, and the cream design paper.
I alos die cut the scalloped ovals, the holly leaves, and the Christmas baubles - these have also been embossed and gold dusted over it but it is hard to see! 

I bunched up a bit of netting and used double sided sticky tape to hold it down. and then i placed the red gingham ribbon over the top, folding it over the card and sticking with tape on the back to stop fraying.

Finnaly i just added the flowers, berries, and the sentiment.

I hope you like it!
