Pearl Anniversary

Hello,

Today I'd like to share a card I have made to celebrate a couples Pearl Wedding Anniversary.

The card started as a 7x7 bright white to which I cut a heart out of the front and backed it with the stripe paper. Then taking a floral paper 8x8 I cut the heart out of the centre and stuck it down covering the front trimming all around.
Then I added a vellum sheet to the front but only attaching on the left side covering the tape with a strip of floral removed from the under sheet.

I added a deep pink sheer ribbon and within the bow I added a wine bottle charm. I then added the sentiment to the top right tucking under a few fussy cut flowers.
The vellum flowers were embossed with sparkle white powder and the stamp is one of Chloe's, I coloured behind with my Copic pens. I added pearls to their center's and dotted white Nuvo drops around. The leaves are from the paper too.

Thanks for dropping by today, I hope you like what you see and maybe leave a comment too.

Gift Giving.

Hello!

Today over at digichoosday.blogspot we are starting a new challenge which is as always Anything Goes.  For the design team we were asked to use an image from the store that incorporated giving a gift but we had to make it in the Christmas theme.

So I chose my image  winnie-bearing-gifts. from the wonderful winnie-winterland-big-kahuna-digital-craft-download this is packed full of images both coloured in and not, along with papers and embellishments, the hardest part is deciding what to use!!
Then I decided what to make and for me it had to be a gift bag. I have to say in hindsight I should have gone a little smaller but hey ho too late now.

I've used 3 papers from the kit along with the little image tabs and embellishments. Then there is the image which is as I have already said is Winnie bearing gifts and I coloured her in using my ProMarker pens.
I have also used a couple of stamps from Nikky's polymer stamp set which has a half of a Christmas tree on it. I believe it's out of stock at the moment. I also used 3 letters from Love & Romance scrabble letters. 3 different lace's and ribbons, lots of stickles plus a few other bits from my stash to finish off my project.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you can come over and share your makes with us. A great prize to be won along with 3 DT top pick prizes.

Warm Thoughts

Hello!
Today I’d like to share another pink Christmas card I have made.

I have used a selection of papers from my stash and on the top one I stamped snowflakes and embossed using a new to me WOW powder. I cut the three trees and raised one putting the little fence in front. The mittens gave me the 2 snowflakes to add which was cute.
The image is Tilda and I've  coloured her in with alcohol markers and dropped some white embossing flakes on top. The little tag is a Magnolia die and the sentiments are by Justrite stamps.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have liked what you have seen today and can maybe leave a word or two.

Hello,

Please do pop over and if you can join in. The girls do this every year in remembrance of their dear friend and donate $2 each for each card added to the challenge. There are not too many rules other than it must be a Christmas card and predominantly PINK.

So here is my first (I aim to make a few more) it is a 6x6 and I have used a selection of papers from Sparkle which is from kaisercraft it was a selection of Christmas papers out for 2018 season. I purchased mine from Chrissy at merlyimpressions. I have added a little gold mirri card to pop things a little.
The image is a stamp called Winnie Heavenly-snow tweet available from Polkadoodles this also is a 2018 release. I have coloured her in with my alcohol markers. I have also added a little clear glitter pen to her hair and some snow tops. I cut her out using a Spellbinder dies and inked the edges with Worn Lipstick.
To finish off I added a couple of different snowflakes all cut from papers used and a couple of  sentiments. I also used my Nuvo drops in white to add some extra dimension.

Garden Girl

Hello There!

I'd like to share with you all a birthday card made for a lady who loves her garden.

I have made this easel card for her and added lots of different coordinating papers to it. All the edges on everything have been inked with Brushed Corduroy.

The frame was a birthday gift from my dearest friend Sandy. I thought it was perfect for a autumnal birthday. The sentiments are both from Verve Stamps (one of my very favourite suppliers before they closed). The tag is a new purchase from Magnolia and I printed on the tag using my PC.

The flowers and stamens are from crafteezee.uk as is the birdhouse and birdie.  Oh by the way the Garden Girl came from the corner of one of the papers.

Thanks for stopping in today, hope you like what you see and can spare a moment to leave a comment.

I'm joining in the fun over at brownsugarchallenge-294-october-2019

Christmas Card and Gift package

Hello,

Today we have a new challenge starting over at digichoosday and as always it's Anything Goes. You can join in with any image it doesn't have to be a Polkadoodles one but we do love to see what you make with them.

Nikky has asked us to come up with several ideas using   A) any image.  B) make a card.  C) cover a box with a paper. D) make a tag.  E) make or line an envelope.  For my collection I have used the lovely Winnie-winterland-big-kahuna kit

Here is what I have made using an image for the card from one of the designer sheets (which are perfect if your in a hurry or don't like to colour). I have added a sentiment from the kit and a extra bow over the candy canes. I also added ribbon along the edge too.

Next I made a little gift card which houses a store card and that comes in a lined envelope.

The front has some strips of paper and a sentiment and couple of winter flowers.

Then lastly I have made a pillow box from one of the papers (leftovers used to line the envelope above) in the kit as well as a tag too.

I do hope you can come on over and join in the fun. A great prize to be randomly won along with 3 DT winners too.
