Winter

This week, the theme for Think Monday Think ATC is Winter. All the stamps used are by Lavinia Stamps and I used chalk inks and stickles for the icy wintery effect.

Buttons

This week, the Arty Girlz theme is "Buttons". I made this gothic arch, which is similar to a tag I made last year but that didn't have buttons on it... I enjoyed making the tag so much, that I decided to make a gothic arch in a similar style.

Quotes

This week the theme for Theme Thursday is quotes. I made this a while back but think it is perfect for this theme - very simple in design but I love it...

Triangles

These are a couple of designs I made for a swap which I quite like. I have made four of each - now four more to go :)

Sprays and Mists

This week's theme for Created by Hand is Sprays and Mists.

I made this piece using glimmer mists as they are the only sprays I own right now. The stamp embossed in white to create the background is by Heidi Grace and the bird stamp is by Third Coast Rubber Stamps.

'Tis the Season

What with one thing or another I have not had much chance for crafting in the past month... OK well the 60 wedding invitations I made don't count :) But with it being Christmas, I made a couple of pieces...

This arch I made for a swap... I used HOTP background papers and coloured the stamped image in with chalk.

I also made a Christmas Decoration for a 1-2-1 swap with a very talented lady - and as I know she received it today I decided to blog that too....

The background paper is Crafty Individuals (see my retail therapy links), overstamped with white swirls and a bit of fusible webbing topped with moon glow emobossing powder... On top of that is acetate with a gorgeous stamped image using purple stazon.... throw in a marabou feather and pearl brad and a decoration is born.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

The theme this week for Daring Cardmakers is all about birds... and this is what I came up with. The papers are by hot off the press and the stamp is by inkadinkado. A simple card but I love it.
