O Come Let us Adore Him

I've steadily working on my Christmas craft list, here's one of the Christmas cards I've made this weekend. I've embossed the image with black and a little glitter and then sponged the sky. 

I love the sentiments from this Stampin' Up! Set as it reminds me of singing carols in church when I was at school :-)

I'm entering this over at Just Add Ink where their theme Music.

Tropical Summer

Here's my latest card for Gecko Galz, you should check out the site before the end of August, as there's a current special offer. Gecko Galz has also gone Cyber, with Pinterest, Facebook, Etsy and Twitter :-)

For my tropical Summer card I've used one of the new release collage Beach Babe images and then created a scene with some simple masking and sponging and adding some stamps from Gina K. Some paper, hessian and twine from my stash.

I'm entering this card over at Simon says Stamp and Show where they're asking us to share our favourite techniques. Which for me, is creating scene cards with masking and sponging and stamping 

:-)

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my Dad's birthday, he's lives in England and so birthdays can be tricky times, so as a surprise for when he next checks my blog - This post is for him x

I've created this tropical scene for his card, using post it notes, sponges, markers and inks. The stamp set is from Gina K Designs. The inks and markers are Stampin' Up. I've added a little bit of organza ribbon and matted with Hessian to continue the tropical feel.

I'm entering this card into Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge, the theme is Anything Goes.

Happy Birthday Dad !!!!!

Seaside Tag

I've created this tag for the Reader Art Quest 1 over at Unruly Paper Arts. Where they're asking us to use our sponges.

Starting with a Manila tag I've masked and sponged to create the background, I've then stamped the 2 children on separate cardstock, colour them with Prismacolor pencils, and popped them on the tag with dimensional foam, add some seashells and ribbon and we're done.
