Christmas in July

My Time To Craft we have a new challenge for you.

Christmas in July,  just to get you started or to 

think, if you are going to have a theme this year.

We would love for you to visit the blog, see the

I don't normally make die cut cards, for I am

really a stamper. Well, I felt it was time I did 

have a go, and here is the result.

The dies and Embossing Folder were with a 

Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine. Issue 197

Hope you have a go, I look forward to you 

entering the challenge.

the DT,  and to check out the details of the challenge.

For my 5" x 7"card, I have used navy and red card

to mat and layer. The bike, from old stash, was heat

embossed with clear EP, onto Black Versafine ink. 

Using my Crop-o-dile, I added the metal eyelets. 

(Sadly you will see I was a bit heavy handed and

squashed a few of them. - Sorry.)

Hoping you and yours are well. Stay safe and

keep on crafting.

Colour on Kraft

Hello everyone, I hope you are safe and well. Thanks

for taking the time to visit my blog.

Today we begin a new challenge - Colour on Kraft

at My Time to Craft. 

Please visit the blog for the small details and to see

my fellow team mates ideas for the challenge.

I used Kraft card with a lilac mat card.

The stamped flower heads, are from a set -

Wild Flowers - with the Simply Cards and

Papercraft issue #204. 

I white heat embossed the flowers and coloured  with 

Koh-i-Noor watercolour paints.

I enhanced by adding stalks and small dots using 

a white gel pen.  I also drew an edge to the 

Kraft card with the gel pen. 

Please stay safe and well and thanks again for

your visit.
