Wicked Wednesday

I was saddened to read that Jenn is thinking of closing down Wicked Wednesday

- I love participating and try very hard to do so every week...

There is still time to enter this week and there are still a couple more challenges before Christmas - so all you ATC makers out there - pledge your support!!

This week's Challenge is 

Winter Hats or Accessories

and the sponsor is Miss Rach

I have used Piggy Heart coloured with Spectrum Noir Markers and die cut with a stitched circle.

I started with a pink rectangle matted with a mitten DP from DDDoodles

I then added some 'holly' as a scarf embellishment and a Christmas hat - red card decorated with a small pompom and glitter glue.

I will link this to Wicked Wednesday #239

Happy Crafting!!

PS - another great Miss Rach image that I have used before would also fit this Challenge...

Challenge #160 at LOC

Challenge #160 starts today at LOC  "Fantasy Christmas"

Our sponsor is Morgan's Artworld

I have used Goth Fairy, coloured with Spectrum Noir markers on my card.

The image was die cut with a stitched rectangle.
The white card base was layered with DP from my stash - a square then a vertical strip, then the image, followed by a tag attached with a brad.

 Looking forward to seeing your makes in the LOC challenge!

Happy Crafting!

Holiday chaos

Usually I would join in with Catch The Bug Challenges

but this year I am really behind with everything - but I still wanted to submit something!!

 I mentioned the other day I hadn't yet finished my Christmas cards.

 I was very pleased with my design at the beginning November

 so I decided to make a whole lot of these but in a much smaller form.

My original card was a 6x6 inch square card -

 today I have made a set of 4x4 inch cards...

I used the image  Make it Snappy - Oh Christmas tree. I printed it several times and coloured the images with a Spectrum Noir marker and cut them out.

The background of each card is a page from Imagine That Digistamps

 Snowy Overlay Papers.

 Again I printed this several times to an A4 page.

I added the background and image to each card.

Using a fineliner I added a black line around the paper and added some doodles.

I added glamour dust to some of the image to add some shine...

I am not sure if this counts as I have obviously used this design before but I will link this to Day One Challenge - All That Sparkles

The other image I have used a lot recently is
 Season's Greetings Feet, coloured with Promarkers,
 a little glitter glue and then cut out.
I have used this to make several cards, tags and a set of tag cards...

l will link this to Day 6 Challenge

Happy Crafting!

Happy Little Stampers - Anything Goes With Dies - December

Here is my inspiration for Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies Challenge

I recently picked up this very inexpensive Santa die from The Range - and so I started playing...

I die cut several Santas and added them to a few cards...Here I added a Santa to a small white card blank. I tried to keep the moustache and beard cuts unstuck and raised.
To this I added Ho Ho Ho, printed on the computer and matted on some red card.
Oh ... and googly eyes ...

To this one I added three felt tree embellishments:

In my third idea I have added Santa to a larger card blank matted with three strips of DP
 (as seen in this card too)

Hope I will see your make in the Challenge!

Happy Crafting!
