The Witching Hour

Hi all I decided to take a break from doing some commissioned cards and made a Halloween one just because I felt like it and really wanted to use this gorgeous image, which is a digital one from Saturated Canary Digi's, she is the artist of this range in both digi and rubber. This image is called Rags and Witches I have teamed her up with some gorgeous papers from Bearlymine Extreme Vol 3 which are available here.

The image I coloured with Promarkers I used the oval deckled edged large dies for the mounts and the bottom border frame.  I did get a little upset when the die moved when I was putting it through the Grand Caliber, I ended up damaging 3 of my new dies, sob, sob.

I actually cut around the top spiders web with a craft knife and slipped the purple paper and die under so the web was hanging over.  I added some flowers and card candy.

This is a closer look at the image

I would like to enter this one into the following challenges:

Creative Inspirations - Anything Goes

Paper Play Challenges - Punches/Dies

Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

I hope you like my card and have enjoyed your visit, thank you, hugs and see you soon.

Hi all I received an order for several cards which are for different occasions, I rarely make a card to order, except for my mum, as I always get nervous and my confidence drops to an all time low and doubt my ability to produce something that is worthy to be used.

This is the first of the cards that I made and I think I got it wrong, it is for a 65yr wedding anniversary from a wife to her 90 yr old hubby but I liked the finished look I would be so interested in what you think about it.

I have used a digi image from Cuddly Buddly which I have coloured with Promarkers.  I printed two images so I could 3'd the bear, I cut around the frame and mounted it onto a gold mirri circle, the papers are from SU, I have added a wide red ribbon and a lame bronze ribbon and bow.  I found some stickers which I used for the corners, the sentiment is computer generated, finally I added one red rose bud and a flower.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

The Pixie Cottage - Fussy and Fancy

Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

Little Darlings challenge - Brown and Red

Creative Inspirations - Anything Goes

Passion For Promarkers - Beary Special

I took a picture from two different angles because of the mirri card, I liked them both so thought I would show them. 

I hope that you like my card and have enjoyed your visit.  I want to thank you all for such lovely comments on both my work, my blog look and music, I try to make everyone's visit as pleasant and calm as possible.

Hugs to all see you soon.

Changing Seasons

Hi all today I have made an Autumnal style card for the following challenges:

Anyone For Anya - Inspirational Photo

The Crafty Pad - Autumnal Colours

Sentimental Sundays - Autumn

Die Cut Dreams - Flower Power

The Crazy challenge - Birthdays

For my card I have used a rubber stamp image from TGF, she is called Madelyn, this is the first time that I have used her.  I inked the stamp with Momento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with Promarkers, I used a corner rounder punch for the image and the brown card that I used for mounting her on.  The base spotty paper is from Bearlymine papers, the paper with the leaves on was a freebie from a magazine.  I added a wide red ribbon topped with a brown spotty ribbon, this was the last piece I had so was lucky as it matches the base paper perfectly.

I added some flowers then die cut some leaves in three different colour-ways, these I adhered to the side of the card finally I stamped and mounted a sentiment.

The picture below shows a closer look at the image. 

Thank you for visiting I hope you like my card I will see you later.

Hugs to all.
