Peace

   This week the theme for the QKR Stampede challenge is anything goes with the twist angels.
   I have used peace angel which I coloured using Promarkers adding clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle to the wings. I cut it out using a Tattered Lace ornamental circle and matted it onto dark green card. The Christmas tree design paper is from my stash. I used the Tattered Lace die contemplation peace to cut out the sentiment which I coloured using a black Promarker and a dark green Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen.

Bouquet of happiness

   This fortnight the theme for the challenge over at Crafty Card Markers is thankful.
   I have used one of the new Holly Hobbie stamps from Crafter's Companion called a bouquet of happiness. I coloured it using Promarkers and cut it out using a Tattered Lace mini ruffle square die, colouring the ruffles using Promarkers. Using a larger die from the same set I cut a square from darker green card and positioned this at an angle under the image.  The chequed design paper was printed using a My Craft Studio CD ROM. The card was finished with a little square thank you note.

As usual the theme is anything goes.

Poinsettias

   I printed this poinsettia digi out twice. After colouring the first image using Promarkers I matted and layered it onto green mirri and white card. I coloured the flowers of the second image, cut them out and used them to decoupage the first image. I used Liquid Pearls on the flower centres. Finally I added a red peel off sentiment.

Hiding

   This week the theme for the QKR Stampede challenge is anything goes with the twist Halloween. I thought of the animals and decided to use the digi hiding which I coloured using Promarkers and fussy cut leaving a narrow white margin around it so that it would stand out from the dark background. This was dark textured navy paper which I matted and layered onto orange mirri and white card. I added a portion of a web cut from black card using the Tattered Lace large spider web die. To this I added dots of Stickles to look like droplets of water. The image was added last.

Snow woman

   I have been asked to be a guest designer for Scrapbook Stamp Society (http://addicted-to-stamps.blogspot.co.uk) and this is what I created.
   It is not often that you come across snow women and this one has a rather fancy hat! The digi is from Scrapbook Stamp Society and after colouring it using Promarkers I rounded the edges using  a punch and matted it onto red card. The background paper is from the Berry Merry paper pad by Jennifer Ellory and I matted and layered it onto red followed by white card. The decoupaged die cut flowers were created using the Christmas Rose Tattered Lace die and again coloured using Promarkers.

Ghosts

   This is the front of my card I made using the ghost digis from Scrapper's Delights. I matted and layered halloween paper printed from a My Craft Studio download onto black mirri and white card then attached two of the ghosts.
   Inside my card I made some pop up letters and attached three more ghosts playing among the them. I used more of the printed paper as a background.
