Rudolph Day February

I made this card for Rudolph Day earlier in the month as I knew I was going to be busy. Then I nearly forgot to do the post!

I have been going through some of my very old stash and came acoss this decoupage and the aperture cards. I think the decoupage was from Kanban. The wo together with some gold ribbon and a gold stampes sentiment finished it off.

Rudolph Day- September

Oh my goodness only two more Rudolph Days till the Day itself! How did that happen?

I have used a Stamplorations stamp that I've just got my hands on- Poinsettia Row -Artsy Borders. I've gone for the CAS look and simply stamped it in Versamark and embossed it with gold. I cut it and the gold mat, out with the Sue Wilson Noble rectangles dies. I do like the pinhole effects but I find the sizes very odd, they don't tie up with UK sizes ie A6 or US A2 sizes. The gold mat measures 5.5 x 4.5 inches, so Ive had to cut down a 6 x 6 card to fit. Finding a suitable envelope might be tricky!

Digitally Sweet #101 - Poinsettia

It's Friday again and time for a new challenge at Digitally Sweet.  The challenge is a recipe!  1 image, 2 papers(either digital or real) and 3 different embellishments. The sponsor this week is Sparkle and Sprinkle. As I chose their Poinsettia digistamp to work with I had to make a Christmas card!

 

 The poinsettia is digitally coloured and the whole card is 100% digital. To make sure I had 3 different embellishments I turned the sentiment into a sticker - the other two are the holly and gold ribbon. As usual I used Craft Artist 2 to create this and the elements came from a variety of digikits.

Last Christmas Cards

Here are the last of this year's Christmas cards. All except the first were made with kits from Craft Creations.

The next is a special one. The poinsettia was embossed on vellum and painted with Twinkling H2Os. I also did a second on ein blues and silver but unfortunatelyforgot to take a picture before I posted it !
