Sugar Plum Fairy Enchantress

Hey,

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas.

Here's a Christmas card I made using this lovely image by Heather Valentin called Sugar Plum Fairy Ethereal Enchantress. I love the Nutcracker ballet.

The image is colored with Promarkers and I have used some scrap patterned papers to create this card. I have so many bits and pieces of cardstock and patterned papers that I have to use them from time to time. I can't throw those bits away (am I the only one?) On the pink cardstock I created my own background using a lovely candy cane stamp and red ink. I also used a doily edge punch, distress ink, ballet slippers charm, holly leaves and red gems.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hugs,
Kitty

DDS - Snowboard Sammy

Hey!

Here's a snowball easel card I created using a winter digi from Digi Doodle Studios.

The image is called "Snowboard Sammy" from the Winter Collection and colored it using Promarkers. The card is very easy to make. I created a circle by tearing little pieces of a square piece of white cardstock. I used white gesso to create texture and while wet I added glitter to it to give it the effect of glistening snow. I added felt snowflakes, gems, punched out snowsflakes, die cut snowflake, snowflake charm and a snow sentiment to finish it.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

The Snow Queen

Hey!

Here's a birthday card I made for my son's girlfriend. The image is a coloring page from Christine Karron and I loved it so much that I wanted to create a card with her.

The image is called "The Snow Queen"and I colored it using Promarkers and Faber-Castell Polychromos. For the background I used black and silver glitter wrapping paper. Other items I used: icicle border die, snowflakes border die, snowflake die, snowflake punch, tag punch, flower punch, white gelpen, flatback pearls and diamond painting stones.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

DDS - Penguin Wobbles Special Delivery

Hey!

Here's a card I'd like to share with you using a lovely Christmas image from Digi Doodle Studios.

The image is called "Penguin Wobbles Special Delivery" from the Believe in the Magic Collection and I colored it using Promarkers. When I saw this image I had to create a card in the shape of a gift and with a big bow. It is such an easy card to make, but I think it's doing the image justice. If you like to create a card like this one just cut a strip of cardstock that is slightly wider than your card base and adhere it with thick foam tape on the top part of your card and tie a big piece of ribbon around the front of the card and make a pretty bow so that it's on the top part of your card.

There is also a challenge over at the DDS Challenge Blog.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Hugs,
Kitty
