Thank you!

Today's card has been cut out with my CB, the base card with scalloped circles (nesties), and the green with circles (nesties)I stamped the thank you circle on a snippet of the green and layered it onto a black circle. The green is stamped with circles from the same set (Stampin Up) I can't remember what it is called, sorry

Autumn colours

The challenge this week at
Charmed Cards and Crafts is for Autumn colours. I think my mail art that I made for a swap at
Cardmaking Paradise fills the bill! I have coloured the front and back with various shades of distress inks, and also splattered with water. I have used some Crafty Individuals stamps on the background, a bit of stencilling and the main images are Jofy. I would also like to enter at Sweet Stamps for Anything Goes

Holly

Another card for the 'C' box!
I have used a lovely holly stamp from Penny Black, and stamped onto pearlescent card. The message is stamped on a strip of white, and then layered onto a snippet of red. Finally I added micro beads over the message, using ds tape. It is very sparkly IRL, but doesn't show up in the scan.
I would like to enter the following challenges.

Have a great week

Ho! Ho! Ho!

This is my second entry for the Paper Artsy challenge this week.
I had to compromise on a stamp to use as I do not have the star one that Joanne used in her example. I have paper pieced the baubles and added some colour to brighten them a little. For the background, I did a squirt of Dylusions (squeezed orange) then stamped with the little circles from my Jofy set, and also a splatter of orange ink.

Christmas lights

Joanne Wardle is again the inspiration at Paper Artsy. I just love her CAS approach to cardmaking.
Here is my attempt for the Christmas lights example - mine are actually baubles, but I still get the same effect.

Paper Artsy challenge  entry #1

one stamp - 3 cards

Darcy at Art and Sole has challenged us to make a number of cards using one main stamp. This is my first one, I first stamped the border on the base card, the stamped again on a red card and gold embossed. The top layer was stamped and embossed with Detail white EP. I then lightly coloured the white edge with the same blue ink pad, the red edge was rubbed with gold metallic rub-on, and the navy layer left plain.

The next card:-  stamped onto green vellum with winter illusions EP, and cut a square of light green with fancy scissors and corner punched so that the vellum could be inserted. I added some snowflakes punched in holographic silver, and then all layered to the white card

The third card was coloured with Victorian Velvet distress inks, and the edges rubbed with gold metallic rub-on. I tore a piece of kraft card that was left over from another project, and stamped with the Victorian velvet DE, and embossed with Dye Boss EP. Finished off with a narrow ribbon, and a punched holly leaf and 3 red beads.

More for the 'c'box

I did not realize how difficult gold stars are to scan! - believe me - these are gold!
This card started out being cut on my Cameo, but it did not cut right through the card, so to rescue it I decided to glue the stars on, and added green Smooch and red kindyglitz to the dots. The tub eas cut from a very small snippet of kraft card, and the sentiment was layered on a snippet of red.
