Christmas Tilda

I only managed to make one card today and it is another Christmas card.

This card is for the Tilda & Co weekly challenge and this weeks challenge is "As cold as ice" and you have to make something using only blue and white and of course your project must include a Magnolia stamp.
I coloured my Tilda using prismacolour pencils, blended using sansador. I used a little glamour dust (very fine glitter) for her wings, but it doesn't show up too well in the photo. I used my cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and embossed some pearlescent blue card and also some white glittery card. I cut both of these to the same size and matted them onto some navy blue bazzil card. The Winter Wonderland is a clear stamp (sorry don't know who by), I stamped onto white card using blue versafine ink pad and then chalked over it with pearlescent blue chalk and then I matted this onto navy bazzil card. The two embellishments I added are from Papermania.

A Very Crafty Day - 3 different Challenges

Well today I have made three cards, which I must say is really good for me!

This first card I made using a great sketch which Claudia put on her blog - Pretty Pressings. If you haven't visited Claudia's blog, you really must as her cards are so beautiful.

For this card I used brown bazzil cardstock for my base card and made a 6" square card. The papers I have used are from K & Co and the lovely cowboy/girl stamp is from Alota Rubber Stamps. I only have this one Alota stamp, but I love it so much I've ordered the Western set and a few others from Helene at Alota stamps. I used my cuttlebug swirls embossing folder on the pink cardstock. The button flower, ribbon and ribbon slider are from my stash.

Foil Card with Ribbon

This card I made for Daring Cardmakers challenge - the first time I've joined in. The dare this week was to use kitchen aluminium foil some where on your card.

This card also meets the criteria for the Scrummy Stash Cafe challenge which is to use ribbons.

I covered a piece of card with kitchen foil and embossed it with a cuttlebug embossing folder. I added this to a black card and then stamped a DMD butterfly stamp in black ink onto white card and matted and layered it onto black and silver card. I then added a black ribbon and a buckle cut on my Wizard.

Fat Book Pages

These are some FBP's I made today for the Flower swap on Craft Swap Forum. I used Pink Peticoat papers on three and the other one I used a cuttlebug embossing folder. The stamp I used is from DMD, I stamped it in lilac and then put Holographic embossing powder on. I just added a little bow and a few square lilac gems. The papers are all lilac and white, but look a little grey in the photo's.
