I Love Promarkers #145 ~ Anything goes....

Morning! It's 'Anything Goes' this week over at I Love Promarkers!

We have a new sponsor {Dr. Digis} and they are offering 2 digi images to a lucky winner! Check out the DT cards as some have used Dr Digi images this week :)

For my card I have used stamps from the Docrafts Lucy Cromwell range called 'Teacups'. I have masked together 4 seperate stamps from the set to create this pretty scene!

I have coloured the image with promarkers and prismas, adding pearls and a fancy corner to finish.

The sentiment is from the same set too!

I am entering my card into the following challenges ~

Charisma Cardz #46 - Colour Combo......I have used a lot of aqua, pink and purple :)

CAS Snowflakes....

A clean & simple snowflake card today.

I have used the fabulous Create a Flake 3 again......this time using the tan mat to emboss the card rather than cut! Another look you can create using the same dies.

I have added lots of stickles to all the snowflakes and finished with the sentiment stamped in icy blue and the pearls :)

I am entering my card into the following challenges ~

  A Penny Black card to share today for the new challenge over at I Love Promarkers :)        

'Singing & Dancing'.....

We would love to see all your cards featuring singing or dancing or both if you'd like!!

I have used my favourite PB cats having a good ole sing song :) Coloured as always with promarkers and prismas and the paper is also PB from quite a while ago. Not sure if they do this range anymore.
But it's perfect to match up with these happy kitties!!

Christmas Gifts.....

Hi! Today I am sharing a couple of Christmas gift ideas :)

I love making my own gift packaging......adds a little something extra special to your gift!

The cute little triangle treat box above is full of sweeties in a cello bag tied with ribbon. I found the instructions for the box in the Tutorials section over at SplitCoastStampers.

Once the box was made I decorated each side with patterned paper, red lace? and die-cut snowflakes using my Spellbinders Create a Flake 3 set.

Next is this bottle tag with a front pocket for adding some money or a gift card perhaps? You can use this tag over a bottle of wine or even bubble bath with a face mask in the pocket :) Anything you want really!

Again I have decorated the blank tag with patterned papers and snowflake die to match the treat box.....

A lovely gift set for someone ~ sweeties and wine or pampering treats - perfect!

I am entering my gift ideas into the following challenges ~
