Another card for Sundays with Santa "Sparkles"

Good Morning Crafters, I like the end result this time its my own design, I cut three of the striplets from Sue Wilson and after cutting a mount of red card I used some large glitter and double sided sticky paper I have then placed my cut topper on top.
I then cut two larger mounts out of red and white and laid my mounted top in the center, I then used red pva pearl glue and created the red dots around the edge.
For the sentiment I cut two Peace diecuts in red and white and layered them up and placed it down the center of my card.

This weeks Card for Sundays with Santa - "Never seen Ink"

Good Morning Crafters, well I bought this stamp about 18 months ago and have been itching to use it and I got the opportunity to do so last week making up this card for this weeks "Never seen Ink" Challenge over on Sundays with Santa on Facebook, if any of you would like to join our little group please let me know it would be lovely to see more people on there.
Anyway I stamped the image onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it, I then mounted it onto dark green card after cutting both out with one of my rounded edge Nestabilitie dies.
The base card is a 8"x 10" and for the first mount I have used the same dark green card as the mount and I then used a piece of white card and ran it through my embossing machine with a holly patterned folder, I then wrapped a piece of holly ribbon around the card and attached to the back of the first mount. I then place a diecut holly piece I found in my stash, which I also coloured with copic pens, and then placed my mounted image towards the right of my card.

A Card for Sundays with Santa

Good Morning Crafters, it does seem I have been rather slow updating my blog but I have been rather busy looking after my No.1 blog, its difficult to keep both going so Im afraid this one has to take second place when Im particularly busy,
I have created this card for the Facebooks Sundays with Santa "Polka Dot" challenge this week.
I have used a small dot embossing folder for the backing card and the Snow sentiment is one of the Sue Wilson ones and I have cut it in white and blue and created a shadow effect with the blue one.

A "Birds" theme for Sundays with Santa

Good Morning Crafters, well its certainly cold here in Gloucestershire and I wouldnt put it past any of the birds to wrap up as well as these two on my card, its a Pink Gem Image and you will find it here, and I have printed it onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it, then used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.8 to cut it out and a fancy one for the mount.
The papers are also from Pink Gem and these ones are Small Snowflake and you will find them here, I have used two papers a blue one and a beige one, the second one I have used a Martha Stewart border and corner punches on to create a square.
The sentiment is also from Pink Gem and has been cut out with a circle die and layered up on another circle slightly larger. And the final flourishes are the spotty ribbon and the large pearls in the two opposite corner.

Guess what another Card for Sundays with Santa

This weeks Challenge over on Sundays with Santa is "Non Christmas Colours" and I had just received the new die from Spellbinders the Lattice Labels No.1 and I thought this was ideal for my choice of colour and design for my card choice.
I created a 6"x 6" white card and for my first layer I have used one of Phil Martins Christmas sentiment paper for the base and on top I have laid the diecut Lattice and the sentiment is one from my stash that has been embossed with gold embossing powder and placed in the middle of the label die.
To finish of I have placed the two white purple tipped Helibores which have been stuck on top of some punched out leaves, in the top left hand corner and three large purple pearls in the top right.
