HLS Christmas Angel

Welcome to Happy Little Stampers Christmas challenge for March. 

 

 

The optional twist of angels is really easy or at least that's what I thought until I realised I didn't possess a single image of an angel. Not to be beaten I searched for some digi stamps and certainly found some but none I liked. Next stop the Silhouette store where I found just what I wanted.

I cut the angel out from some gold shimmer card and used the same card as a mat. The white mat is cut with a Penny Black die. I added a strip of gold printed vellum with the first two lines of Silent Night under the angel.

There's lots more inspiration if you need it on the challenge blog

Hot Chocolate Anyone?

The CAS Christmas challenge is asking to see silhouettes this month. Easy peasy right? Absolutely not! I had a couple of ideas in my head, none of which worked. So I rescued a bit of my inked background card and die cut a small square. Who would have guessed that when Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide is spritzed with water it would turn blue? But it did!

I stamped the mugs from a Gina K set that has been sitting unused since I bought it a couple of years ago, in laire Nocturne and added a scrap of gold glitter underneath.

 
The sentiment is from the same set. Having made the card the sentiment stamp had vanished of my desk where I had put it ready to use. Couldn't find it anywhere. Fortunately it turned up this morning exactly where I had been looking last night!

Silhouette for Twofer

I'm cutting it a bit fine for this month's Twofer challenge. I think of it as a monthly challenge but of course it's only two weeks!  Anyway I dug out a stamp that was one of the first ones I ever bought and haven't really used it since!  I hope it counts as a silhouette.


For the first card I stamped it three times without reinking, The sentiment is from Penny Black.. I've no idea who made the rose stamp as I've long since peeled it off its wood mount.
 
The second card is just a single image with some spots from a very useful little stamp from Lavinia stamps . Makes splattering a whole lot easier!

And here are my two cards together. Hope they count as they are both simply stamped.

Less is More - Silhouette

The ladies at Less is More are asking for silhouettes this week. I had time for a quick play yesterday and here is my attempt.
I had a bit of trouble getting a really crisp image, and even tried embossing with black powder (something I rarely use, preferring clear) but a black pen solved the problem. Short and sweet post today!

Love


I made this on the craftrobo using a print and cut download from the Silhouette site for the lovebirds, mounted on a piece of red card embossed with roses on the Cuttlebug. The word "love" I created myself and the hearts are a Quickutz die.
