Into the Woods

Good Morning,

Another great theme this fortnight at 

Moving Along With The Times

chosen by Emma which is:

Into the Woods

so flowers, trees, animals 

I chose to make a start on my Christmas cards, early I know but I won't keep it up I'm sure!

I used  stamps, stamping the leaves in different shades of green and stamping 2nd & 3rd generation ink. Then stamped the fir cones in brown and over stamping some in gold. The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed using a Chloe stamp.

Please do hop on over to the main challenge blog here to see the wonderful creations my teamies have created.

Wonderful Mum

 Good Afternoon,

An unusual time for me to post I hear you say, but I am on annual leave and am trying to get better at posting more regularly. We'll see how it goes when I get back to work.

I thought I would share the card I made for my Mum who has been so wonderful helping me with my recovery from my recent treatments. "Love you Mum"

All papers used are printed from a Dreamees CD, the backing paper, mat on round focal point and for the flowers. The roses are hand rolled and the blossoms were punched.

The leaves were die cut, the doily (by bird cards) was cut on the cameo both in kraft and both were inked with distress ink.

The sentiment was made by me on the computer.

Hope you like, my Mum did! 

Vintage Roses

Good Morning,

I've been having another play with my Altenew stamps and a bit of masking

I inked the edges and used the same ink to add a few splatters which I added glossy accents to.

Rainbow

Good Evening,

Another great theme this fortnight at 

Moving Along With The Times

chosen by Terri which is:

Rainbow or Rainbow colours

I started with a piece of white card which I applied strips of different coloured inks to using  dusting brushes. I then stamped my Altenew "beautiful day" flowers and leaves in VersaMark and heat embossed in white. I stamped part of the sentiment and cut part on the cameo
