Peaches Valentine Bunny

 

Hi Crafty Friends!

Here's a card I created with one of the 8 cute Valentines images from a new release by Digi Doodle Studios.

This fun image is called "Peaches Valentine Bunny" and I coloured it with Promarkers. To create this shaped card I used one of my new card shape dies. I folded the card base in half so it stands on it's own. The image is cut with a stitched rectangle die, blue mat underneath the image is cut with my vintage photo edge guillotine cutter from the sixties, the pattern paper is from an INS paper pad called "Sweetheart" and distressed the edges, I added a flying heart cut with an old die, added 3 gems and  I used one of the 3 sentiments that comes with the image.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

A Cheerful Snowman

As I love snow I created a snow card with one of my favourtie snow circle dies by Studio Light and a fun TPS snowman digi called "A Cheerful Snowman".

Christmas Gift Tags

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today starts a new challenge over at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and it's our Christmas Break challenge.

I created two gift tags using the pre-coloured images called Christmas Delivery and Christmas Eve Wishes. I printed them on thin photo paper and cut one of them with a stitched square die and matted it on red cardstock that I cut with a vintage foto edge photo guillotine cutter and the other one is cute with a lovely shaped die and matted on green cardstock. In the corner I adhered a little star and used my crop-a-dile to add a gold coloured eyelet. To finish the tags I added some bakers twine so it can hang on the present or even on the Christmas tree.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

The Paper Shelter 15th Anniversary Blog Hop

 

 Good Morning lovely crafters!

Welcome to The Paper Shelter Blog Hop, in celebration of The Paper Shelter's 15th Birthday on the 

8th of December! This will be a two week challenge, with both teams taking part, and it's our way of thanking The Paper Shelter for sharing their wonderful images with us, and sponsoring our challenge.

The theme for this special challenge is:

CELEBRATIONS

If you've arrived here from Granmargaret, then you're heading in the right direction!  If not, then you'll want to pop back to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to start again, because you don't want to miss out on this one.  Both Design Teams are participating, showcasing the gorgeous images available from The Paper Shelter, and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commenter a digi of their choice, as well as the main prize, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.

Sometimes you forget a celebration ;-) and those need cards too.
I got to play with Maggie and I colored her with Promarkers. I created this card with a digi paper pack from my computer. Other items I used are; purple cardstock, pink cardstock, walnut stain distress ink, purple ribbon, stitched circle die, doily, digital sentiment and white lace.

From here, you will need to hop on over to Helen. Don't forget to leave your comment for an opportunity to win your choice of one of the fabulous digis available in store!

 Good Luck! Hope you've enjoyed the Hop so far!

Hugs,
x kitty ♥
