Harper - DDS

 Hi everyone! 

So today is my last post for 2021! Where has that year gone! 

If you were celebrating the festive season - I hope you had a wonderful time! 

Today I am sharing a card that I made for my Mum and Dad for Christmas. 

I used the image 'Harper' from Digi Doodle Studios - this is not necessarily a Christmassy image but i think it works quite well as one, 

I also strayed away from the traditional Christmassy colours, I went a bit Orange/Gold.

The image has been coloured with Promarkers and Nuvo Markers. 

I have die cut some backing papers and a star border which I have places along the bottom of the card toped with gold ribbon. I then heat embossed some stars on some seee through paper and fussy cut. 

Ithen die cut some clouds (Heffy Doodles) and some musical notes (Tattered Lace). The sentiment is from Polkadooles. 
 

I hope you like it! 

I wish you all a wonderful New Year and hope that 2022 brings us all so much fun, laughter and Joy! 

Happy New Year Everyone!

Kiss Under the Mistletoe - SD

 Hi everyone! 

today I am sharing a Christmas card that I have made using a digital image 'Anime Kiss under the Mistletoe' from Stampers Delights

It's a little sassy so i have decided to make this for My husband for Christmas. 

I have coloured the image with Promarkers, and decided to make a check skirt - My tip for this is to not make the lined just straight - try and follow the lined of the dress for a more authentic feel. 

I have then die cut a snowflake background to overlay the backing paper. 

I have die cut some leaves and added a few glittery mini white berries to represent the mistletoe 

I then added a little back organza tape and a sentiment. Finally adding some gems and some die cut 'xoxo in the corner. 

I hope you like it!

Hi everyone! 

Jumping on today to share with you a elvish slimline card.

I can imagine that in Satna's workshop the Elves are busily working ready for Christmas, but also that they can stick in a lot of fun! 

That is the inspiration of this card!

These digital images have been printed out , coloured with Promarkers and Nuvo Markers and Fussy Cut. 

I then created the Workshop Background. I used Tim Holtz Distress Greys and Brown inks on 'Wood Grain' stencil from Funky Fossils and 'Pave the Way' Stencil from Clearly besotted.

I then die cut some string lights and coloured with Promarkers adding glitter to the lights section.
