Black Book

Hi Creative peeps

Today's card I'm really chuffed with i think it's a mixture of the colour scheme (lovein' black & cream) and my colouring seems to have gone up a note some how maybe i was just in the mood to colour :o)

The card is 8x8 white card blank.
The vintage looking paper is from Echo Park Season's Greetings collection.
The little book is made from some old book pages and added some ribbon for the book mark.
The pom pom flower is also made from old book pages. The roses and magnolia die cut flowers are cut from cream card with a large black gem in the centre.

The Magnolia is called Tilda with stack of presents
 She has been coloured with Promarkers and Prisma pencils.
The other embellishments I've used are some antique chain balls, diamante mesh cut into stripes,
ribbon and seam binding layered up with a pearl buckle and bow.

Hi creative peeps

Well today i have another wreath to share as i mentioned in my last post i had my eye on some red papers well they didn't survive just had to start punchin' & cuttin'.

Its a square frame covered in papermania home for christmas paper, then decorated with flowers made from the same paper. I arranged the flowers then filled in the gaps with more flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and some small ribbon roses and tulle. Covered the whole thing with white acrylic paint and star dust glitter.

Halo Flower Wreath

Hi creative peeps

Todays card is not a card but a christmas wreath decoration/3D project which i really really enjoyed making, so you may be seeing another (got my eye on some red papers) lol!

To make the base i took a piece of 480gsm card (you can buy this in Ryman stationery stores). Then i drawed around a small plate and a bowl for the centre hole then i cut it out with a craft knife. Covered with pink paper and attached the small piece of ribbon for the center image to hang on.
Make lots of flowers and arrange before hot gluing into place.

 
The handmade flowers are made from Stampin' up and pink bazzill bling paper. Then i filled in the gaps with flowers from Wild orchid crafts and I am roses. Added white tulle and dabbled on some white acrylic paint and blinged it with loads of glitter :o)

The Magnolia stamp is called Halo Tilda (coloured with promarkers & prisma pencils)

Chilly Weather...

Hello creative peeps

Today's card is what i like to call a stand-up or hang-up card, featuring a shaker.

For the shaker frame i used half a craftwork cards fanciful card blank,
 with a square aperture cut in the middle and glitter as the shakey stuff.
The paper is my minds eye and kraft card.

The magnolias are Snowy Hug & romantic window
(coloured with copics & prisma pencils)

I've added ribbon and lace so it can be hung up.

I have also added an eyelet to the shaker card and attached ribbon, lace, diamante mesh and a snowflake charm & beads.
The flowers are punch from white & kraft card then glittered.
