Sleigh and reindeer



      Friday means a new challenge at QKR Stampede,
    I have used their digi called sleigh and reindeer, going over it with a black Promarker pen. I cut out the stars and moon and coloured the background using Distress inks. I then matted it onto gold pearlescent card, adding Stickles behind the cut out stars, and then white card. The buildings were cut using the Tattered Lace die winter town and coloured using Promarkers. I removed some of the windows and mounted the buildings onto yellow card to give the illusion of light. After attaching these to the card I added Flower Soft to the roof tops.

Poppies



   This fortnight the challenge At Crafty Cardmakers has the theme of lace or ribbon.
   I opted to use ribbon. I matted the poppy paper onto green card and wrapped a ribbon vertically around it, afterwhich I matted it onto white card. The digi image from Beccy's Place is called poppies and was coloured using Promarkers. I cut it out using a Spellbinders curved rectangle. Using the same die I cut a piece from darker green card and offset this behind the image. Finally I added a bow.
