The Hobby house Christmas Cards in January

 Hey, so today I am sharing a few Christmas cards which I made using the hobby house collection.



For this first card I cut 14.5cm squared piece out of the merry & bright snowflake paper before then cutting a 2cm by 14.5cm strip of spotted paper.  I stuck the snowflake paper to a 6 by 6 card blank, followed by the strip of red card with white dots and then the die cut image.


I look the sentiment and coloured it using a crimson promarker followed by colouring the edging in a gold metallic promarker.  To complete the card I added some silver sequins which I stuck on using Gert's glue.


On to the second card - for this one i cut a background from the merry and bright spot paper which measured 14.5cm squared which I then stuck onto a 6 by 6 card blank. After which I stuck down the large girl topper circle.  With gold cardstock I then used Time for Tea designs falalalala die set - using the snowflakes which i cut out using my Gemini machine; the snowflakes were then adhered using Gert's glue. Finally I stuck on the warmest wishes sentiment to complete the card.


Thanks for viewing my blog post and I hope you are keeping well; feel free to comment on my post and follow me should you wish.

Crafty hugs!

Hey all! Hope you are all well.  So today I wanted to share two cards I've made using a new company to me (TLC Designs), which I happened to stumble across; the cards are using the company's digital products while I await arrival of my stamps and dies. As with the majority of my blog posts you can find a list of the products used along with a link to them at the end of this post. Pumpkin Gnome Card So firstly for the first card I printed the digital image of the gnome out and then coloured the image using Crafters Companion Spectrum Noir Triblend brush pens, before cutting the image out. I also printed the leaf patterned paper and sentiments which came from the Jack O'Gnome digital stamp set.   On a 7 by 7 inch white card blank I then stuck down the bronze embossed card using red liner tape, which I had cut down to 6 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches, before then sticking the leaf patterned paper on top of the bronze card (the leaf paper was 6 inches by 6 inches). I then cut out t...

Time for Tea Designs - I miss your face

Hey all, hope you are keeping safe and well. Today I wanted to share with you a card using the newly released happy mail critters stamp set from Time for Tea Designs. Firstly I started off by die cutting and stamping the images from the latest release from Time for Tea Designs - the happy mail critters, workout pigs and smitten kittens sets; I will be using the other sets in the near future. Following this I decided to die cut the lots of love cover plate die - horizontal, out of a vibrant pink piece of card stock before adhering it to a A6 white card blank.  I choose to use the postbox, the cat and bird images along with the word smiles; next it was onto the colouring for which I used my spectrum noir triblend brush pens. Once the images were coloured I used red liner tape to adhere them to the card front, along with the word 'smiles' so the cat is posting smiles.  Following that I took 6 hearts which had cut out from the cover plate die I had previously used and placed them ...
