Christmas in July with Creative Moments

How cute is this card? 

The image is from                                              which I printed out and coloured with my Promarkers. I then added a touch of glitter to their wings and clothes.  I edged the image with pan pastels and then matted it onto red cardstock.  I went to my Christmas Paper Stash and used two different papers from a magazine freebie booklet. I matted them onto red cardstock also.  I cut out a snowflake die from Heartfelt Creations and then added a sentiment to the centre and a red bow.

A Christening Card


Hello, I thought I would share this card I made for a customer for her niece's Christening Day.
I had the lovely image from www.liliofthevalley.col.uk  and sprayed it with Spray and Sparkle from www.crafterscompanion.co.uk then mounted it on silver mirri card.  I chose some lovely papers from the new DoCrafts collection and matted the image on one of the papers on to silver mirri card also.
I then embossed the card front using an A4 Embossing folder from Spellbinders and then die cut a border and stamped and die cut the flowers and flourishes from www.heartfeltcreations.com
I then printed out a sentiment and then die cut it. I added pearls to the sentiment and the center of the flowers.  The card opened like a backward easel, if that makes sense.

Creative Moments - Steam Punk Heart


Hello there, for my DT challenge for Creative Moments today I have used this amazing Steam punk Heart.  I have stamped a background on cream using Creative Expression stamps, used embossing folders and inked them with distress inks.  I die cut cogs and used metallic pan pastels over them so they look like rusty metal. I printed the heart out on cream cardstock and then coloured it with my Graph'it markers then distressed it and added glossy accents to the rings. I die cut a key and added a sentiment.  There it is!

Creative Moments DT Challenge - Sassy Studios


Hello, wow it is another month gone! Where does the time fly to?  I am working all hours at the moment and find it hard to craft in the evenings and at the weekends there are all the house chores to do!!! I have been making my first Christmas Cards this week though for a customer! I know, I know, Christmas cards in June!!!! It felt weird making them so early!  But about this lovely challenge for Creative Moments - I am using a lovely image by Sassy Studios - A real glamour Mum to be! 
I coloured her with my Graph'it markers, found this lush paper in my crafty stash with the word mother in many different ways and languages. I just love it.  I used my new Spellbinders frame, which is also fab and put it all together.  I really do not think it needs a sentiment, do you?
