Time For A Newe Release

Good Morning, it's time for a newe challenge theme at Totally Ladybug Tuesday, and to make it extra special there is also a newe release!   

The theme this time is 

Anything Goes!

The Newe Release is called

"Eunice and Ramsey"

My image is called

"I D'ewe"

Isn't it just the best!

There are 16 new images altogether and they are available from today for only 

£1.75!

There's lots of ways to win images this time,

You could be in with a chance of winning the entire 16 images, all you need to do is stop by and comment on the rest of the design team cards and also the lovely  and rather talented

 Cass Stomboli

 who is joining us as a Guest Designer for the newe release.

This lady is a colouring queen so please be sure to call by her blog and leave her some Ladybug love!

Check out the TLT blog for full details!

Just check out Eunice's veil! I simply did rough cross hatch colouring using my clear Gelly roll stardust pen. I also cheated a bit using the ScanNcut to cut out my image, I inly needed to use a blade to cut the areas that were landlocked like between the heads ans the legs, not bad eh? I can tell you it certainly makes an easy job of it!

I am so excited with this release, it just lends itself to some fun sentiments and I've heard that there is an image suitable for almost every occasion!

Go on have a go:- especially for Ewe, Thank ewe, Wishing ewe a speedy recovery........ 

the list seems endless!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

I haven't made any resolutions this year, I certainly didn't manage to keep last years where I aimed to make one Christmas card a week, oh well, I managed to get them all made in the end so didn't have to resort to making lots of New Years Cards to make up for it like I did last year.

I haven't actually made any New Years cards and haven't done any crafting for a week so the only card I have lined up to show you is  the second card my friend ordered for her mum to give her sister. I was at a loss what I was going to do other than use 2 hearts and the sentiment that was requested but I have to say that I was rather pleased with how it turned out, good old Cricut and Plantin's School, to the rescue once again! The snowflakes and colours as you may know if you saw the first card, are to go with the Wedding theme.

A Christmas Wedding

 This is one of the Wedding cards ordered by a friend of mine.

 

The wedding colours are black, white and silver with  a snowflake theme.

 



 

After attending Karen's class, I just knew I wanted to make one of these folded cards for my friend and luckily the "Karen Burniston" Sizzix dies arrived just in time. 

 

Instead of using design papers, I used pearlescent paper which I embossed. I then made a box to match.

Ding Dong The Bells Are Gonna Chime

Is this a good enough clue to the theme for this week's challenge at Scrapbook Sisters????? no?
Well just for you then,
 the theme for Week 80 is Wedding Card .

I wasn't sure what I was going to do for my DT card but whilst browsing round Paperchase with my youngest I came across the most delicate piece of paper, it was marked as tissue but it reminds me of.... I think it was called Angel Hair paper that I used to use when I first started making cards many moons ago. You use to use a wet paintbrush around the edge before pulling it, giving a delicate rough edge.

 

Anyway, I'm getting side tracked. The tissue has delicate silver and gold flecks amongst the fibre, beautiful in real life but I'm afraid the photo doesn't do it justice.

I sprayed my card with glue, carefully placed the paper on top and left it to dry for a few minutes before cutting it to size. The hearts I cut on the Cricut using Plantins Schoolbook but this was done a few hours later giving the glue plenty of time to dry, I was chuffed that it worked and so thought I'd push my luck and use an Xcut border punch on it as well to create the scallops.

To my amazement it worked although the punch did groan slightly as the layers were a touch thick together.

I touched the edges of the cuts with a silver ink pad, unfortunately it looks a bit darker in the photo than it actually is.  A stamped sentiment added, some gorgeous bling, card complete.

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

Lexis 63, Punches and Dies,

Paper Sundaes 116, Anything goes,

Stamping with The Dragon, Wedding,

MIM85, Anything goes.

Happy crafting!

To Have And To Hold.

It's time for another challenge at Scrapbook Sisters and the theme for this week is Christmas Wedding. Ok,I know my card could have had a sprig of holly or some crisp white snow but the truth is..........

I read my email wrong!  At least it's a Wedding card, I got that bit right! (Sorry Team.) I suppose the glittered edges could save me ;) Just a bit of stamping,colouring with my Copics,cutting, embossing,inking,Diecutting and punching,a touch of stickles along with some fake stitching and my card is done!

I'm using my card for the following challenges:-
My Time To Craft 166, Take Two,
Heart Song 25, Gold or Glitter,
Hooked On Crafts 12, Die cuts and punches,
MIM63, Anything goes,
