Daring Card Makers Challenge - Mermaids

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week is

Mermaids

I've used a Little Miss Muffet digi stamp I found pre printed in my stash, coloured with Promarkers and liquid pearls.  The papers are from a bargain 6x6 pack I found in my stash plus I delved deeper and found some Basic Grey fibres that were gifted to me and teamed it with some thin lavender ribbon.

I've hand written the sentiment, added liquid pearl dots around the edge of the card and image plus softened it a little with heart vellum die cuts around the image.  Good luck with the challenge!

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 212 - Anything Goes

It's time for a new Crimbo Crackers challenge and the theme is

Anything Goes

I've used a Little Miss Muffet Stamp and coloured her with Promarkers.  The backing paper is one I've had for an absolute age and its from Pink Petticoat.  I've embossed a panel and used that as a background and added little half pearls to the centres of the snowflakes.

I've hand written the sentiment tag and added other embellishments from my stash.  Good luck with the challenge!

Daring Card Makers Challenge - February Elemental Inspirational

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers Challenge and as it is the first Friday of the month, it is time for an Elemental Inspirational photo.  I'm the hostess this week and here is my theme:

Colour can only count as one item but you need to be able to match three to enter and to tell us what they are!  I've used the cactus, red hearts on a stick, the twine and also the scalloped edge.

The image is from Little Miss Muffet Stamps, coloured with Promarkers and I've used a die to cut the postage stamp edge.  Two hat pins with red die cut heart added are tied to the card with waxed cord.

Good luck with the challenge! I'd like to enter the following:

Daring Card Makers Challenge - Something New

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers Challenge and I'm the host this week and my theme is

Something New

One of my cousins is due to have a baby girl at the end of the month and I've made this card in preparation!  I've used a Little Miss Muffet stamp (which is currently unavailable), coloured with Promarkers and edged it with heart die cuts to mirror the card blank.  The sentiment die, I think is Lawn Fawn, and I cut it twice for extra depth.

The paper I found in my stash - trying to use up all the bits that I have (I have loads) and the ribbon, bakers twine and little charm are also from my stash.

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers challenge and the theme for this week is

Cactus

I've used a Little Miss Muffet stamp and coloured it with Promarkers plus coloured pencils for the background.  Papers are Papermania Secret Garden which I've had for donkeys in my stash and this is the first time I've opened the pack.... shame on me!!

I've used the offcut from layering the paper onto the card blank across the centre of the card, and used kraft card for layering.  Two brads from my stash (again had them for ages and need to get them used!) and finally a running stitch with a black fine liner pen.  Good luck with the challenge!

It's time for a new Crimbo Crackers challenge and the theme, as always is

Anything Goes

I've made a card with a specific brief of it being Chelsea Football themed and the sentiment (created on my computer).  so I've used Junior Hatter Belle from Little Miss Muffet (sadly the store is temporarily closed) and coloured her with Promarkers plus a little glitter glue and liquid pearls.  The die cut background has been made with varying sizes and brands of snowflake dies which I've cut from the same cardstock as the cardblank and then added some half pearls to the centres of the snowflakes.

The ribbon and jingle bell are all from my stash.  Good luck with the challenge!

Little Miss Muffet Stamps - Junior Hatter Pine

Sharing the last of my 2018 Christmas cards and for this I've used Junior Hatter Pine from Little Miss Muffet Stamps with Junior Hatter Add on Faces A - the add on faces are easy to use in a graphics programme, you just need to make sure you line it all up correctly!

The papers are some that I've had in my stash for a long time and they are from Funky Hand - I'm trying to use up all the digital papers I have that are remaining from previous projects; I think they will keep me going for some time!!

Ribbon and bakers twine are from my stash.  I've used a Sizzix die to cut the vellum behind the image and simply added a doodled line around the edge of the vellum and card base.

Little Miss Muffet - Welcoming 2019!

It's the last day of 2018 and to celebrate I've used Polka Dot Pals Wyleen from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I've used Promarkers to colour plus glitter glue here and there.

The paper is from my stash - part of the rather large collection of digital papers that I've printed over the years and now need to use up!  The snowflakes are all die cuts and I've added half pearls to their centres and dotted a line of liquid pearls around the edge of the card.
