Whimsy Stamps - Snowman's Birdie Friend

I'm sharing a card today featuring the Snowman's Birdie Friend digi stamp as part of the Digital Diva's DT for Whimsy Stamps.

 I coloured him with my copic markers and paper pieced his scarf, hat and mittens using blue card which I ran through the Sweater slimline embossing folder. I cut trees from the Trees Assortment die set to create my background. I also added some clouds using the extra clouds in the Clouds slimline die. I adhered the image and stamped one of the sentiments from the Gnome For The Holidays stamp set.

To finish off I added lots of clear Wink Of Stella to make it look frosty. It doesn't show very well on the photo though.

Vera Lane Studio - Merry

I'm so excited to be sharing my first official post as a member of the Vera Lane Studio DT. 

I've made this postcard using the cute set called Merry which is available in the Vera Lane Studio Etsy shop. 

I splattered some Paperartsy Fresco Snowflake white paint on my gelli plate and then applied a coat of Ice Blue. I then stamped on it using AALL and Create Background Noise #338 by Janet. I then lifted the print using more Snowflake.

 Once it was dry I printed the sheet music lightly in one corner. (It's Frosty The Snowman!)

Next I stamped the background with AALL and Create sets #339 Framework Elements, #304 Heartfelt and #352 Circled Numbers all by Tracy Evans.

I coloured the images with my Copic Markers and adhered them to the postcard, adding some AALL and Create Plain Washi tape below them.

To finish off I added some clear Wink Of Stella to the images to add some sparkle.

Time For Tea Designs - Magazine Feature Part 2

Thursday and time for another Time For Tea DT post.

The lovely Jo at Time For Tea Designs was asked to feature in the November issue of Simply Cards and Papercraft. I was lucky to have had two of my cards chosen for the feature. My card today is the 2nd of them.

If you pick up a copy of the magazine you'll be able to download the digital stamps  for your own use.

We were given this colour palette to work with.

 

 

 

I used the snowman this time and added his scarf and top hat. I coloured him with my copic markers as always. I decided to go with a circle card and make it look like a bauble. The papers are the same Nitwit Collection as before and are called Woodland Wishes. Their colours were perfect for the brief. I cut out the Tim Holtz Holiday Greens and added them to the top of the card and added a seam binding bow. Some stickles for the berries and a pearl in the middle of the bow. I printed out the LOTV sentiment and matted it on coordinating cardstock. Finally I adhered the snowman on 3d foam pads.
