All White Festive Greetings!

Hello there - its me again, I am back with my second DT card today!

This time I have my card for our fab festive challenge over at My Time to Craft and this week we'd like to see your white on white Christmas cards. Now I know how much I struggle with WoW cards and so I was pleased to see that we're allowed coloured images on our cards....making it a bit easier!

I've used one of my favourite new digi stamps sending people warm winter wishes....


I have used a white card blank, which has been topped with some pretty embossed white card. Finally I printed my image and added a little colour with my Promarkers and a little sparkle with my Stickles. My sentiment has been produced on my laptop.

I'm pleased with how this WoW card turned out - simple but festive! For more inspiration pop by the My Time to Craft challenge blog and see all the gorgeous DT cards that have been created. We've got a short break ahead of us now.....our next challenge will go live in January.

Thanks for popping by today,

Its a tad bit cold out there!!!

Hello there! Happy Sunday....hope you've had a lovely weekend so far.

My part of the world continues to be covered in snow (it has snowed all day!!)...I have decided that this is the best method of transport....

 
Yes, those are my feet and yes thats Joe pulling me along!! Poor thing!! Personally I think it counts as exercise and will help him work off the yummy Welsh Cakes that he devoured when we got home....
 
 
My mum used to make these when we were little, me and my sister would be lined up next to the stove waiting to eat them hot and fresh from the griddle pan!!
 
Inspired by the weather outside I have created the following card today....
 
 
Just what everyone needs...a pretty mug of hot chocolate (or tea or coffee!!).
 
The fab layout comes from this week's sketch over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday:
 
 
I've added a little sentiment box at the bottom...hope thats ok SSW ladies!!
 
My pretty mug image has been paper pieced, and I've gone with wintery blue colours....I love that blue cloudy backing paper, it goes perfectly with my punched snowflakes. I've added a little sparkle to the snowflakes using my Stickles.
 
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Love to Create - Sparkle & Snowflakes

Brrrr.....sending some warm wishes!

Hello there! How are you today?

Oh my goodness...isn't it cold out there?? My little flat has awful heating...the bedroom is the worse where I have one small (very expensive) electric wall heater that is directly below a single glazed window!! I swear all the heat goes straight out of the window!! But don't worry...I've got my huge winter duvet out, my fluffy socks and my cosy PJs!!

I decided to make a card with some warm vibes tonight...what do you think.....

 
I've used lovely autumn colours for this card....browns and a soft orange, along with an image of a mug of something yummy and warm! My image has been coloured with my trusty Promarkers and is attached to the kraft card using 3D sticky pads. I'm really pleased with the layout of this card....I didn't really plan it, it was a happy accident!
 
I hope I've created a real sweet Birthday treat here!
 
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
 
The Pink Elephant - favourite colouring meduim (my Promarkers!)

Talking of sweet Birthday treats...its one of my friend's Birthdays today....a fireworks baby no less!! I decided to make her some cute little chocolate teddy bears using one of my moulds. I do enjoy chocolate making, I find it a very satisfying thing to do...plus you end up with some very tasty treats! What do you think.....

 
As you can see...these bears are a little bit special...they are coated in a really pretty cold lustre dust!
 
Happy Birthday Becca!
