Simply 'Merry Christmas'

Christmas is just around the corner and I was still in need

of more Christmas cards so...

I got out my old Tim Holtz Holiday Knit stencil

to use as a background for my CAS card.

It's the last Challenge of the Year at

Addicted to Stamps and More

and it's our

This is where you use pencils,markers,watercolours,brushes, inks

I used White Texture Paste on my stencil background

  and some Arctic White Lustre Powder (Thanks Kylie)

on white card stock shadowed by red 

on my Merry Christmas Die from

CUTplorations and attached to vellum.

It's Time to - MAKE YOUR MARK

Hello and Welcome to our New challenge over at

Addicted to Stamps and More It's our

 

where we need to see colouring in some way or other.

Make your mark with pencils, pens, sponges

water colours, inks etc - you get the drift.

Here's my Make.

I started by randomly inking my 

STAMPloratons Trendy Leaves

with Memento Olive Grove/Peanut Brittle

and Rhubarb Stalk.

Added small dots from SU Timeless Textures

with Tim's Gathered Twigs.

Backed that with torn card stock.

Added some jute for interest.

Finished by adding a touch of WOS

to the Rhubarb Leaves

and the CUTplorations Thankful Word Die.

Hope you will pop over and see what my Team Mates

created and come join us in our Gallery.

Thanks fro dropping in.

It's time for the Make Your Mark Challenge over at

Hi and Welcome.

I love making cards with Kraft card stock

adding white elements.
My mark is simply the heat embossed white lace.

I saw a card on Pinterest and decided to CASE it

but unfortunately I didn't save it to give credit.

It's pretty simple - I heat embossed the lace

from SU Delicate Details and my IBS Sentiment

then cut out the MB Quinn Flourish, cut a bit of 

the bottom and tucked the side under the kraft

card stock. Got out a much neglected die

called Heirloom Rose from MFT and

blinged it up with Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

I got a pack of Crystal Gems from

a recent craft show and they matched

nicely with the glazed flower so sprinkled them

around to finish my card.

 Added one to the centre of my popped flower also.

Here's a close up of the glittery flower.

Pop over and see how my Team Mates 

made their mark and come join us this week.

Love to see you in our Gallery.

I Made My Mark for Addicted to Stamps and More

Hi there and Welcome to today's post for the

Make Your Mark Challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More

This is another card I made some time ago at my

bff's house using her goodies.

The background is Tim's Oxide Inks

Loved her big sunflower die - what better

way to showcase it with the bright yellow paper.

The centre was sponged and I added

some Magicals for shimmer.

(can't wait till mine arrive)

Inked up my sentiment and cut 

from a SB die.

This was attached to my kraft card base
