A Card for the Sugar Nellie Challenge and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Morning Crafters, well guess what the sun is out probably only for a short time no doubt it will start raining yet again, I dont know about you Im really fed up with it. Anyway todays card has been made for not only the Sugar Nellie Challenge and the Sugary Sunday Challenges and Ive used this sweet Holly Fairy for my image, Ive printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I cut her out with my Nestabilitie Labels Die No.1 and a fancy one for the mount. Then used some glitter on the wings and edges of the fairies clothes.
The main card is a 6"x 6" white care with a first layer of red card and the papers are from Dovecrafts "Tis the Season" and I have used three papers, the first a white background with a holly pattern on it, the second is a striped one and I cut a piece and used a holly border punch down the edge, the third is a red background with stars on and this was placed on a red mount.
Then I have laid a holly ribbon and attached it to the back of the first mount and the sentiment is one of the Papercrafts vertical die and was placed down the right handside.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-

A Special Card for a very Special Friend

Good Morning Crafters, a very special friend of mine is getting married next week and as I only heard through another friend this was taking place I thought I would like to make a card for her and hopefully send her my love and good wishes for a happy future. I have known her for at least 25 years and she went through a really bad time a few years ago and I happy that she has found someone else who she feels will make her happy, I do want to wish her all the best.
The image I have used for my card is a Whiff of Joy one and I have stamped it onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it, afterwards I have used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.1 to cut it out and a scalloped one for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash and i felt it was just right for this image it also has flowers around the edge and its been treated in the same way as the image.
The base card is a 7"x 7" white card with a base mount of pink pearlescent, then on top is a one of two papers from the Confetti Paper Pack from Dovecraft, its old one that I had in my stash and its only used when I have a wedding card to make, actually my eldest daughter is also getting married in a few weeks time so it also came out for that one to.
The first paper is a pink and white stripe and in the corners I have used a Martha Steward border heart punch, this was stuck on the pink base, then on top is a second paper which is a white background with heart confetti design on it this was cut into a 6.75"x 5" oblong and then it was punched with the same heart punch I used for the corners and I have used the border punch with it as well.
Across the center I have used two white ribbons and attached them to the back of the first mount, I then placed my mounted image in the middle with the sentiment at the bottom on the right. To finish of I have used several sized roses in pink and white and beaded swirls in a spray in the top left hand corner, the final flourish are the pearl sprays at the end of both of them.

"Sundays with Santa"

Good Morning Everyone, well I dont know about you but I spent 3 hours last night scheduleing cards for the next four days because if I dont something is likely to come up and Im bound to forget to do them, I know weve got to do our monthly shop on Tuesday so I thought I might as well get on and do it. Anyway even this card was scheduled Saturday night for this morning as Im sure to get behind if I dont, so here goes.
This weeks Sundays with Santa is for "Flat Flowers" and Ive chosen this sweet image of Willow as an Angel for my card, and Ive coloured her with my copic and tria pens, then used the large oval to cut her out, as shes rather long than the die I had to use the out of the die to get it done completely, Ive also used the scalloped one for the mount.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and Ive created a pocket for the tag at the top, as I want to enter this card in a couple of other Challenges and one of them asks for a pocket for a gift, and this token at the top is a promise to take a granddaughter to the Zoo. Anyway Ive used red card for my first mount and just one paper a very pretty white background with a red tree scene at the bottom, Ive also used it for the inside of the pocket.
I then positioned my mounted image in the middle and popped the tag in the pocket which has a ribbon at the top and to finish of I have put two different sizes of Poinsetta flowers at the top on the left and one on top of the staple I used on the tag.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
