Dylusions Christmas Cards

  Good morning Lovelies! I hope everyone has managed the weather the storms ok? We really were very lucky here, thank goodness but I know many of you had a rough time!

I have made a couple of different Christmas cards using a combination of Dylusions stamps and stencils with DI and stains! Now I know they aren't particularly pretty and are nt going to appeal to everyone, and to be honest I'm not really sure I like them that much? But it's fun to play! And if you let loose once in a while and go for something different then it gets boring! Thank you for spending the time to visit! Please leave a comment, I'd love to hear what you "Really" think xxx 

Holly wreath card

  Good evening Lovelies! Well it's been a rough day for a lot of you, I hope everyone has managed to stay safe and dry? We've not had it so bad here! 

I made this card the other day, a very quick and simple card, the hardest part was sticking 58 gems on, luckily they were self adhesive lol! It's a 6x6 craft card base matted with red card, the top layer I just drew around my double sided tape and using the lovely Lavinia stamps holly stamp in Adirondack Lettuce ink, just stamped around then added the gems, the sentiment is from a creative expressions set! Hope you like it? Thank you for visiting xxx

Something very different for me!

  Good evening Lovelies! Brrrr! Certainly starting feel like winter! How's everyone's Christmas shopping going? Mines rubbish this year I've normally finished by now but I've hardly started :(, must get going!

So tonight for a daily challenge the theme was altered puzzle piece! A new one on me? Never heard of it? But with some research it appears to be quite popular! So here's what I came up with!

The puzzle piece I traced off net and cut out of cereal pkt, I covered the reverse side with some Vintagey Xmas paper, I inked the front with peeled paint stamped using Christmas berries DI the smaller pointsettia stamp from a creative expressions set, and masked and stamped using forest moss DI a Justrite harlequin and text background stamp,  I then water brushed to just shade the pointsettias a bit and dotted some gold pen on the centre, I stamped and heat embossed in black EP the large pointsettia from the set 3 times and coloured with Spectrum Noir's and decoupaged off set slightly for more dimension. I must say I'm pretty pleased with it! Thank you for visiting xxx

Free your imagination!

  Good morning Lovelies, a second post so early in the morning, I'm on a roll and not even out of bed yet lol!

I made this card using another Visible Image set, this time Free your imagination! 

I used 6x6 craft are base, matted with a dark brown card then again with text paper from Stampinup, loving this paper at the moment, which I stamped the feathers onto using versamark and perfect pearls, the topper matted again with the DB card stamped with coffee archival the splats around the edges, birds and splodgy bird, I added some speckles using another stamp TH stampers anonymous to create a more grungy effect, inked more text paper and cut my rosette using TH die by sizzix, added some blue Fran-tage EE and fragments to the centre of the rosette for some texture, voila a great mans card I think?

  Good morning Lovelies! A very early one for me today!

I have made this card for the challenge over at Visible Image using one of their new sets: 

Immortal love! It's a 6x6 base, matted with white glitter card, I used linen texture card and masked the edges, then with versamark ink I randomly stamped the small rose and swiped magenta tint Pan pastel over it and sealed with hairspray, then removed the mask and did the same with the barbedwire border stamp, I stamped the large rosé with versamark on linen card and heat embossed with a fuchsia sparkle EP, the banner was same process as background, and a heart dazzler to make it sparkle! Thank you for visiting!
