Cat Lovers Hop Day 3

 

Welcome to day 3 of the Cat Lovers hop

Today's card uses some more cat silhouettes cut on my Cameo. I have them sitting on a wall, which is actually a piece of wallpaper sample! I stamped the message from my Woodware stamp set onto a scrap of black card and embossed in detail white EP

BYSH Cardmakers Day5

 

My second post for today.

I am still making Christmas cards for the BYSHC blog hop, so that is filling my box nicely. 

It is such a great incentive!

Today's card was made with a background of distress inks applied direct to the textured card with a wet wipe. My snowman is a precut one and I coloured the patterned piece from the back so it would show better. I then added a couple of peeloffs from the 'mountain'

Birthday cats

Hi everyone and welcome to my new followers, I hope you enjoy your time here

Today's card is a slimline using a panel die that I won from Sue Wilson

I replaced the middle panel so that I could use this spot for the message

My black cats were cut on my Silhouette and the balloons and message are from my peeloff mountain. I am trying hard to use them up!

BYSHC day 3

 

Day 3 today for the BYSH cardmakers.

I decided to combine this with the sketch and colours from MFT

I used a lime coloured base card and raided my scrapbox for the two stripes, the oval and the pink poinsettia, and of course a peeloff too

 My card for BYSHC day 2. Mostly made from Christmas papers and some tiny white snowflakes added

Christmas robins

 

Welcome back

Today's card uses a technique that I was reminded of recently, using a paper napkin

I cut the birds from another piece and layered them with mounting tape for dimension. I then matted with gold card and adhered to a white card base. Quite pleased with the result. 

This is for my husbands elderly relative who is in a care home

Winter Illusion

 

Hello and welcome to a windy Friday. It is a good day to be inside playing in the craft room

After seeing Dawn's card using winter illusion EP, it reminded me that I had some as well. It has such a pretty effect in the light. With this photo I tried to capture both the pink and the turquoise

I first embossed my black card using a Craft Concept EF and then applied Versamark to the flat area. Added the EP and heat set. The sentiment is cut from white card using my Cameo Silhouette.

I diecut the rectangle and adhered to a white card base

Hedgehog Joy

 

Hello and Welcome

Today's card features a very old Penny Black stamp called Hedgehog Joy, I am not sure if it is still available

I have coloured with my copics and punched out a number of leaves from a multi-coloured DP, which I then adhered over the flowers

The background was an experiment in using up the ink inside gel pens which would no longer write, and then some dried marigold DI sponged over in places. I was quite pleased how this turned out.

I used letter peeloffs to make the word 'happy' because this is what the hedgie feels playing in the autumn leaves!

Hi all

Welcome back

 I have used this crazy bird again for this card, but this time coloured him in Copic R17  lipstick orange (which is really a red) and Promarker Y337 tulip yellow.

I have followed the MFT sketch for this week and cut my circles with my cuttlebug. This is a good way of using small scraps

In The Pink

 

Hi everyone

Today's card follows a sketch from MFT, and uses the colours for Passion for Markers

To make my card I used a scrap of pink DP and ran a red marker around the outside

I then diecut a stitched circle from a piece of Fabriana Bristol and stamped it with one of Tim Holtz crazy birds. The sentiment is Woodware Deco sayings, embossed in white on a scrap of black. A little pink sequin heart finishes it off.

Markers I used are - 

Promarkers R244, R366, R327

Is this your cat?

 

Hi all

This cat looks just like one that used to own us years ago, his name was Tiger!

I sized the image a little smaller and printed on a scrap of white card. After the edges were torn and distressed, I used DI 'rusty hinge' to sponge the edges.His chain necklace was highlighted with gold paint, dimensional magic on the goggles, a small key, a piece of an old clock, and a word added.

Rudolph Days

 

 Hi, I am back again with a very simple Christmas card

I attached a piece of Bo Bunny DP to the top section of the card and then overlaid with a die cut piece from a scrap of white. The die is from Stamplorations called stitched winter landscape. I trimmed off the house and one set of trees and moved the set of 3 trees to the right. I added a silver peeloff to finish
