Snowman cutie!

The theme over at La-La Land Crafts blog this week is White on White with a Pop of Red!  Here is my DT take on it...

Isn't he fun?  I love his wonky eyes and twiggy arms!  You can't see it from the photo, but I also added a Wink of Stella clear glitter on the snowflakes and on the edges of the trees - it pops more in real life!

Here's a list of the LLLC goodies I used...

Build-a-Snowman Die

Christmas Hill Border Die

Snowflake Banner Die

Stitched Elements (set of 7) Die

Check out the rest of the DT creations over at the blog here!  I will be back later with my Alicia Bel DT post - ta ta for now!

Mrs Claus!

Here is  another one of the last minute Christmas cards that I've made for my Grandma...

I love this Mrs Claus - her pinny is so sweet and the way she looks over the top of her glasses is classic!  She is from the Whimsie Doodle's Santa & Friends set.  I thought the doily die cut would look sweet behind her and I topped it off with holly and berries using a Martha Stewart punch and the sentiment is a Paper Smooches die..

Not long now until our next monthly Whimsie Doodle challenge starts and we'll also be announcing the new design team!   Very exciting!

I'm off now but back tomorrow with my La-La Land Crafts and SugarPea Designs DT posts - see you then!

Holiday treats

Just finishing off those last minute Christmas cards!  Here is one I made with those gorgeous SugarPea Designs goodies...

This only took me 10 minutes to make!  I used the sweet stamps and sentiment from the Sweet Treats – Christmas set, the stitched circle die from the Layered Treat Label – Sugar Cuts Die and the banner from the Gift Tag – Sugar Cuts Die.  Here's a look at the sets...

I could do a production lines of these and finish all of my Christmas cards in one evening!  So, I'd better get off and do that right now.  Toodle-oo!

New Alicia Bel challenge - Christmas!

It's the start of a new Alicia Bel monthly challenge and the theme is ... wait for it...CHRISTMAS!  So get your skates on and finish off the stack of cards you need to make before final posting dates!  Here is my DT using the beautiful Xmas Faery...

What a gorgeous faery, huh?  I love her little outfit!  I matched her up with My Minds Eye papers, a Simon Says Stamp vent die and a My Favorite Things snowflake die topped off with a lickle ickle red button!  The sentiment is a Paper Smooches die.

I hope you can join in with our challenge for a chance to win an Alicia Bel digi.  You can get all the deets and more gorgeous DT inspiration over at the blog here.

Thanks for visiting and I'll see you on my blog rounds later today - ttfn!

Snowflakes - no thanks!

The theme over at La-La Land Crafts blog this week is Snowflakes!  As pretty as they are, I'm not looking forward to any sprinkling of them any time soon - they're not nice when they start to melt and turn into ice!  Hopefully, we will have a couple of months to go before we see them here in the South East of England.  But anyhoo, here is my DT take on it...

Here's a list of the La-La Land Crafts goodies I used:

Snowflake Garland Marci

Sentiment from the Christmas Elf Marci Stamp set

Snowflake Banner die

Stitched Elements

Copics used:

Face: E000, E00, E21, R02, R05

Hair: E31, E33, E35, E37
Outfit: BV01, BV02, BV04, BV08, E31, E33, E35

Isn't she beautiful?  I love her garland of snowflakes which I heavily sprinkled with Glamour Dust.  As you can see, I also created a shaker window.  I embossed the stitched circle around the window for interest and used Doodlebug sequins.

Here's tip - when creating a shaker card, glue several sequins in place before adding the rest of the sequins loose to ensure that some stay up in the window rather than all dropping down to the bottom.  I hope that makes sense!

Pretty as a picture!

Have you seen the Club La-La Land Crafts kit for November yet?  It's a real cutie and today the team are showcasing some more projects using it.  I've made two cards...

Isn't she a cutie?!  I totally love the all of the camera and accessories dies and that smile sentiment die is gorgeous!  I used My Minds Eye papers and I framed a piece of the patterned paper showing South America - I want to make a trip there next year so I just had to use it!

Copics used:

Face: E000, E00, E21, R02

And here's my second card...

I used the camera dies again in this one plus the border die along the top and one of the sentiments.  The papers are by NitWit Collections called Tour of London.  Of course I would never tour London that as I work there and can't wait to get away from it every day!  But I can see why it is so popular as it is a fantastic city with so many things to do.
