Wedding Day

This months Crafter's Companion Challenge is Romance. So here I've used Popcorn bear and Coconut image from the Frosty and Bright CD covering the toffee apples they hold with the Flower Soft bridal bouquet.
Went to the Adorables CD for the plate and stand templates and used the delicate backing paper from the same cd printing the two larges plates on card and the smallest on vellum. I embossed some of the swirls on the vellum and used Spray and Sparkle Iridescent glitter to sparkle the plates and stand.
Added a top hat , veil , peel offs and some rhinestones to finish off.

Blue Tit

Having a play with my Christmas pressie. The Feathered Friends CD  from Peerless Designs has some beautiful images on it and my  new style of card at the moment is the twisted easel card.

New Life- New Love

Finally back into card making after Christmas and the Crafter's Companion Sketch Challenge for January- . SOMETHING NEW - has set the inspiration flowing again.
This card for a New baby has a butterfly background downloaded from Crafter's Companion site and printed onto vellum which gives it a soft look. The other paper comes from the Adorables CD. I've decoupaged the  main Beatrix Potter image and added and extra raised butterfly from the background. I love these side twister easel cards - so easy to do but effective.

Bits and Pieces

The Quick Cards Challenge was to use up left over scraps and so this card was born. using pieces of left over Xmas paper for the letters which I then decorated with various odds and ends.For the"O" I made a ribon wreath by knotting off cuts of ribbon and cord onto a peice of wire . Then this I mounted onto an off cut of gold embossed acetate.

From Our House To Yours

Made with papers from Cute Companions Winter Tales CD. I love this decoupage with the opening door and  added some Flowersoft to give extra texture.

Mother and Child

Clare's Challengs at Docrafts and a  brickwall inspired this card. The challenge was to use elements from this photo to create the card.My mind is firmly set on creating Christmas cards at the moment so downloaded the Mother and Child image from Docraft's Christmas images  as a focal point on my card                                  

 

Christmas Faries - another card made using the free papers from  cardmakingand papercraft.com and using the Fairy Stamps from Quick Cards Magazine.
