Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned Paper December Challenge

Good Morning Crafters this is the last blog post that I shall be making for Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned Paper Challenge so I want to thank Hazel for letting me be part of her Design Team for the last year and I want to wish the Team all the best for the future.

And here is the Card I created for this last Challenge for me

This stamp image is from Marianne Designs I stamped it onto white card and coloured it with my copic pens I then glittered it and cut it out with a Marianne die and inked through the diecut holes. I then placed it onto a piece of blue card to make if stand out more on the patterned background.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card and the first mount is a piece of blue card the backing paper is from Creative Expressions then in the corners I have used the Memory Box dies to create the diecut designs.
I then laid my mounted image in the center and stamped a sentiment onto another piece of white card and cut it out with a oval die and inked this around the edge to. I then placed it before the mounted image in the center.
Now that youve seen my Card I do hope you will pay a visit to the CraftyHazelnutsPatternedPaper Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented Design Team have created for your inspirations.

A Card for the ArtbyMiran Facebook and Challenge Blog

Good Morning Crafters, I thought you might like to my card I created for this months Facebook Challenge for ArtbyMiran, and this is a reserved image and I printed it onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it. Afterwards I used a Nestabilitie Die to cut her out and a fancy one for the mount and before mounting her I used glitter on all the white ruffles on her dress and hat. The sentiment was also done by stamping onto white card then using a label die from Spellbinders to cut it out and a fancy one for the mount.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of red card, the first layer is a sheet of Vintage Christmas papers from Phil Martin, and then on top I have cut out a similar size piece of white card and the Memory Box corner dies and used them on all four of the corners as you can see in the photo.
I then placed my mounted image on top in the center with the sentiment down the right hand side, it seems to have slightly moved. I also used some dazzlers down the left hand side just to finish it off.

A Card with one of the La La Land Images

Good Morning Crafters, I thought it was about time I used a couple of my La La Land images and as the weather is rather cold I thought this was a ideal one to use first, not sure if we are in for some snow in the future but it would preferable to the rain weve been enduring, its really bad along the Severn and Wye Valley both rivers are now flooded and Im so glad that my house isnt to close to the river or no doubt we would be in the same boat as several people are already.
The image I have used is a Snowboard image and I have coloured it with my copic pens and then cut it out completely. The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, the paper is from the Maja Vintage Frost Basics and on top of this I have used two die cut which have been cut with Memory Box dies, I then used stickles along the edges of both the tree and the mountains and houses.
I then placed my cut out image in the left hand corner and punched a snowflake with a Martha Stewart punch, and on top I put a sentiment and cut this out with my Nestabilitie circle die.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday

Good Morning Crafters, well Ive exceeded my own decision to get a card done for my No.2 Blog at last, but Ive got something to moan about, blogger has changed the way I get into my Dashboard, I can no longer click on the new post link in the top right hand corner, you now have to have a Blogger Dashboard link on your Favourite Sidebar, its so annoying as it was so much easier to get started on writing up your post. Dont know if you have also found this problem what I used to have was a bar at the top of my blogs which allowed me access to my compose page now its gone.
Anyway at least with a bit of scooting around Ive found my compose page and here is my card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Facebook Challenges, and for this I have used this sweet image of a Polar Bear with a little girl, its one of the Funky Kits images its called "Furry Friends" and I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, the fur around the hat and gloves I have used my Wink of Stella clear glitter brush on, though you cant really see unless you click on the image and bring it up larger.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of white pearlescent card, the paper is from Bearlymine Designs, and the die cuts are from Memory Box, all three of them, the one I used for cutting out the image, the overlay and the bottom border.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Morning Crafters, well Im really cheesed of with the weather its been pouring with rain all night and it was coming down so heavy it woke me up at 5am and of course there was no way I was going to be able to get back to sleep so I rather gave up trying and before you knew it, it was 7am and time to wake up anyway.
Im a little dissappointed with the pumpkins on this card as the ink wasnt as dark as I thought it was, it was probably the fact that I used a light to take the photo but they did look a lot darker originally than they do now. Anyway this is a Saturated Canary image from Sugar Nellie and I have printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used a Nestabilitie Die to cut her out and inked around the edge, then placed it onto a mount of black card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of black card and I have used yet more of the Sweethshoppe papers this set is called "Spider Cider" and the first paper in orange has black spiders on it, the second is a black damask pattern and I have cut a 5" square then used my spider border and corner punch on it. I then placed this on top of the bottom layer.
I then stuck my mounted image towards the left and the overlay die cut is from Memory Box and this stuck down over the mounted image. Then down the right hand side I cut three pumpkins from Die-namics and I also used their stamps on top, I realise now I probably should have used orange card instead of white, but you can just see the patterns on them, sorry about that.
To finish of I have used the left over diecut from the middle of the overlay with a sentiment from my stash and positioned it across the bottom right hand corner. Then to finish of I have used two halloween charms one of the overlay and one on the pumpkin.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl

Good Afternoon Crafters, yes I know Ive been a naughty girl again and unfortunately this card may be the last for a couple of weeks as two of my grandsons are coming to stay next weekend for a week, they are the sons of my youngest daughter so I dont get to see them very often as they live quite a long way from me, so to have them for a week is just fabulous.
And this is what my dog feels like in this weather, she is finding it rather hot.

She wont stay on her own in the garden and once I go upto my craft room guess who follows Missy, she has her own bed on the futon settee by the side of my desk, and she makes herself comfortable on a pillow, though at this moment shes moved of onto the patchwork quilt, must be cooler.
Todays card has been created with one of the new Funky Kits Fairies, and I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her. Afterwards I used Nestabilitie Die Labels No.1 and a fancy one for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash and that has been then cut and mounted on a folded banner diecut from Memory Box.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, the papers are from Maja and I have used three papers for my card. The mounted image was then placed in the middle with the sentiment down below on the right hand side.
To finish of I have used some clear dew drops as embellishments in the two opposite corners top and bottom.

A Card for Sundays with Santa on Facebook

Good Morning Crafters, I hope the weather is improving with you at the moment its still spitting here in Gloucestershire, but Im keeping my fingers crossed that the promised dry weather might be on its way over the weekend, but we shall see. Todays card has been created for this weeks "White on White" Challenge, and Ive used lots of white pearlecent card for my card.
I cut the first layer and passed it through my cuttlebug with a Christmas tree embossing folder, then on top I have put two die cut tree shapes from Memory Box and a further larger one from Spellbinders in the middle of the two others, then along the bottom I have used a Fir Tree border.
The sentiment is one of the LOV stamps thats been stamped and cut with a circle die, then mounted onto a large Snowflake die from Memory Box.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
