Christmas is coming

 Hello 

So this week over at Fab'n'Funky Challenges we are thinking about

CHRISTMAS

That's right, with only 10 weeks left until the big day, we just have to think about all those cards.
Especially if you have loved ones in far off places. Those Last Post dates will be here in no time.

There is also the important job of ensuring all Eggnog ingredients are present and correct 😉

But now for the important sharing part, I've gone all 3D with this little project. 

I used the Sizzix Thinlits 661555

It starts Life as a flat card basically 

But when you stand it up

Add a tealight 

(please note:- As this is a paper project only a small electronic tealight is safe)

And it becomes something much more magical

I have coated the snowflakes and sentiment in iridescent glitter to give them a frosty feel. 
For the open panel sections I used iron-on interfacing from my sewing stash (I knew it had more uses 😉) and just glue it around the edges.

Remember to leave some love for all the love DT's

Hugs & Happy Thoughts

Back again with a new challenge card.

Brown Sugar Challenges is going with an "anythings goes" challenge and my daughter needed a card for one of her friends so.....I decided to create this

This is my new step set, For the Love of Stamps - #iluvmyfone. I am now cool....
I double stamped the mobile then cut out the centre of one so the "screen" would be fractionally lower than the body. After colouring it in I used camelion glitter.
The insert needed to be a bit more "in-ya-face"

So I filled it with app symbols. Hopefully it will be a hit.

Back soon

Foxy little number

I found the cable...woohoo
Although my son is 17 on sunday, he loves foxs, more to the point he loves cute foxs. I wanted to explain this before showing you the card because it looks more like something you would give to a 7 yr old.
But I know he will go all slushy when he sees this cute little guy

This sweet fox and other elements are from the Nitwits - In the woods kit. They have a wonderful array of digital kits.

 

I printed the fox 3 times so I could build him up, to give the card a more 3d feel.

• white A4 card
• Nitwits- In the woods kit
• 1mm foam squares, roller glue and glue pen
• Ultra fine glitter (sun rays)

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.

See you soon
